Look at the presidents of the present and past and look for similarities. There are two well worn paths to the presidency, be a vice president or a governor of a state. Lets list the vice presidents of the twentieth century that have been elected president. George H. W. Bush, Richard Nixon, Lyndon Johnson, Harry Truman, William Howard Taft, Theodore Roosevelt. How about governors? George W. Bush, William Clinton, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter, Franklin Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge, Woodrow Wilson. What about U.S. Senators? John Kennedy, Herbert Hoover. Cabinet Secretary, Herbert Hoover. Mayors...nobody...ever...
So look at the current list of presidential candidates. How many front runners have been governors? One. Mitt Romney is his name. He may not be the media darling, but he will win. Hillary Clinton? What has she done, except ride her husbands coattails into the U.S. Senate. Too much baggage. Barak Obama? No experience. Rudy Guliani? A mayor? Never. John McCain. Too tired. Who's left? MITT ROMNEY.
Perhaps the Democrats should consider Al Gore. He is a former vice president and a Nobel Peace Prize Recipient, but who can take him seriously? No, I think Mitt Romney is the next President of the United States.
