I loved this President for this reason. He is able to defend himself in complete sentences and challenge others without the Secret Service rushing the heckler out of the room like the current administration does. The whole point of our government is to challenge the elected officials or those campaigning for office. Clinton allowed it to happen because he could defend himself. the current administration is famous for not allowing detractors in the area where the president is located.

Wow, I'd almost forgotten what it was like to have a president who isn't an idiot.

Clinton can go again, cant he? Term limits are for consecutive stays in office, not total stays in office, correct/incorrect?

I think it's two terms DC, I don't think he can run again. He could run for Veep though I think, under Hillary.

Clinton can't run for VP. The const states that anyone eligible for VP has to also be elgible for Presidency, in case the President has to leave office. Clinton has had two terms, so he can't be either.

TheEvilComputerNerd - are you sure? I was under the impression that there were no requirements set on the office of the vp other than the requirement that they be 35 years old and born in America.

theevilcomputernerd is indeed incorrect james. the constitution has no such requirement for the vp to eligible for the presidency. while it may have been previously implied (e.g. when the vp was decided by the candidate receiving the second most electoral votes), there is no current explanation to back up this idea. even if the age, time in u.s., and natural born citizen requirements do exist for the vp as well (and the constitution is not clear on this either), it says nothing of term limits.

amendment 22 which sets presidential term limits is similarly loose with language and therefore this hypothetical bill as vp could take over presidential duties upon the president's death/removal. perhaps for up to 2yrs (and perhaps more.)

and even if it were ruled unconstitutional for him to gain that office, there is a line of succession in place, in which case the vp would just be skipped. for a good example of this just go back to sec. of state madeline albright under clinton. if the presidential office had fallen to her (4th in line) it would have skipped over her to the sec. of treasury as she was not a natural born citizen.

cheers.

Thanks Greyish. Though wouldn't Allbright have been third in line as Secretary of State?

Clinton = felon. So he was a smooth talker. Big deal. There are plenty of charming people in prison with equal charisma who could convince you to give them your watch and wallet. Willingly. And since there are enough kooks around here who think 9-11 was a government conspiracy, there's no reason I can't believe that the "heckler" was a plant. The reason the heckler/plant wasn't removed by the Secret Service was probably because Clinton wasn't elected yet. Inarticulate or not, Bush is a real leader while Bubba was just a spineless pollster.

Holy rape of the English language Batman! If you are going to post rambling stuff like that you should a) stop taking speed before doing so, b) fill in the letters to those words without vowels and c) refrain from saying you will kill people (especially a former president who is still protected by the secret service) and calling people queers. Its clear that you do indeed come from some podunk area like Bentonville.

It's scary how afraid of gays you are, EntertainmentMajor.

That's very interesting Krupo. I didn't realize that. That's why we keep James in an undisclosed location somewhere in the deep South. He is VideoSift's designated Survivor.

Yes Clinton was a great speaker and yes he was one of those likable guys. Yes he had the balls to stand up to this heckler. Then later his balls were getting "washed" by somebody other than his wife. Too bad people dont have morals anymore. I like how everybody bashes presidencies but yet cant look at their own lives and go hey what can I do to make this country better. I like how the media tells America what they want to hear and make other presidents look stupid. That is just too bad. No president is stupid. It takes a man with a very hard shell to be president and be scrutinized for every move you make. You cant make anybody happy. Everyone talks about having respect for people, but yet they turn around and just drive people in the dirt. Why cant people just disagree but yet respect. The best president by far was our Founding Fathers and Regan. Nowadays it isnt the best man for the job its the man with the most money and affluence.
