IF Romney were to win - Would you like to see President Obama run again in 2016?
In my opinion there is NO WAY IN HELL that President Obama will lose this election, BUT if by some chance he did...
Should President Obama run again in 2016?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1002851244Yeah I'm sure 0bama would win in a landslide. After 4 years of the economy coming back and jobs coming back I'm sure people will be desperately wanting a return to high unemployment under 0bama.

14. Great attitude! Michelle could tell Ann to keep the garden up.
I hope she has the garden removed and puts horses on it just to irritate you goons.

8. After 4 years of Romney, a mushy middle Third Way president won't do.
After four years of Romney, we'd need a radical leftist with a Congress that would support him.
We already have a radical leftist, and you see where that has gotten us. Let me be clear, I reject the notion that 0bama is anything but a radical leftist.

10. No. But ...
First, President Obama isn't gonna lose in 2012; and if he does, BabyGirl 1StrongBlackMan is going into her Senior Year of High school this August and Mrs. 1StrongBlackMan is retired, with a locked in pension ... If romney wins in 2012, the 1StrongBlackMan is moving to Costa Rica (or maybe the s/w portion of Mexico) in May of 2013.
So 1StrongBlackMan, wouldn't care who runs for the p[residency in 2016.
Ok bookmark this, when Romney wins we better get a post card from Costa Rica.

13. Yes
He is a natural for the job, after 4 years of Rmoney people will get it.
They'll just want sanity back in the WH and Obama still will be eligible.
Joe Biden will be old though. So will Hillary. We'll have a great time fighting over who the running mate should be. Alan Grayson! Elizabeth Warren! Dennis Kucinich! Bernie Sanders!
Yeah people will be tired of unemployment being back down to the 4 to 5% range, and will vote for hope n change (I really mean it this time), in 2016.

15. No, I want someone much more in line with my political leanings,..
not that that's likely to happen ever in my lifetime, but I can always dream.
I kind of doubt he means that he is more moderate than 0bama, so damn he must be to the left of Stalin then.

22. No I think he has sacrificed enough...
I think he would be a good for endorsing Democratic candidates and he would be a good consultant and there is most likely some other job he could fill and might if asked. But, I think in 2016 no matter what happens we need newer blood (not necessarily younger, just some people fresh to politics, but politically savvy) we need to come at 2016 with a fresher more optimistic approach.
Sacrificed enough?

Come on the man is living it up, parties every other day, 100 rounds of golf, expensive vacations.

23. If Obama loses and the Repukes
Keep the House and get the Senate, we can all say goodbye to the Dem party. They will pull a take over and make any other party so weak that they won't be able to anything without a majority. The Supreme Court will never be ours again.
Lord, I hope so, I hope so.
