Got this from a friend in email. This would be an interesting twist. Almost afraid to post it as it might give them ideas.

---------------------------------------------------------
Last night I had the strangest dream. It was so real, so life-like and so vivid I woke up in a cold sweat. Let me describe it to you briefly...

1. Hillary wins the Democratic Party nomination for President of the United States

2. Naturally, she wants to choose as her running mate someone with a lot of knowledge and experience in government and foreign affairs, someone who is a seasoned campaigner who could bring a lot of strength to the ticket. Who better than Bill , her husband?!!!

3. Hill and Bill go on to win the election in November and the Democrats maintain control of the House and the Senate.

4. Hillary is sworn in as President on January 20, 2009. The next day, after all the inauguration parties are over, she calls a press conference to make an announcement: she is resigning as President!!! Bill , as the Vice President, immediately becomes President!!! This is all perfectly legal under the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, for it states that "no person may be elected as president more than twice". Bill is not being elected for a third term but is merely serving out the remainder of Hillary's term---all 4 years of it.

5. But wait! There's more! The following day Bill calls a press conference to make an announcement. He has chosen someone to fill the now-vacant office of Vice President. Guess who he picks? Why, Hillary, of course!!! And she would still be able to run for president again!!!

Please forward this e-mail to all of your Republican friends and to as many others as you wish to cause sleepless nights...

Nah. Hillary is too power hungry in her own right to ever give it up, even to Bill.

What I do see is a good chance of her dumping Bill completely once she's elected. After all, she would no longer need him and, as President, I can't see her putting up with his shananigans.

That's not a Dream thats a real nightmare

There's that little matter of the Constitution, which makes it clear that no one is eligible for the office of VP unless they're eligible to be President. Bill is not.

Well, the Constitution doesn't prohibit it exactly. The 22nd amendment states can't be 'elected' President, and the 12th states a person 'constitutionaly ineligible' to be President, can't be Vice President. But the question is, does the 22nd make him ineligible to BE President, or just to be ELECTED President?

However, Congress would have to majority vote him in if she would resign, so probably ain't gonna happen. Scary though, ain't it!!

More likely that 24 hours after Hillary is sworn in Bill is found on a park bench with a gun no one even knew he had.

Good reason for Bill to vote for Obama!

I think she's more likely to give him a supreme court justice nomination.

Stop!!! I'm having chest pains!!!!!!!!!!!!
