Barack Obama Is on an Airplane About to Crash…

hillary 2020

Thankfully, we don’t have to worry about Barack Obama anymore as he can’t run for president again. But that hasn’t stopped him from making Washington, D.C., his permanent home where a Democratic war room is run out of his luxury Kalorama neighborhood residence.

Now, the liberal Washington Post is pushing the idea that Hillary Clinton is “well positioned” to challenge Trump again in 2020.

As Michael Brenes, a “historian” from Yale University opined, “Clinton might not be a potential candidate now, but the political winds can change quickly. Recent American history is rife with presidential contenders who lost the primary or general election and then went on to become a candidate in subsequent elections. Dissatisfied with the politics of the day, lured by name recognition and preexisting loyalties, the public gave each of these candidates multiple chances at the presidency and handed several the keys to the White House.”

He added:

Ronald Reagan shifted the Republican Party back to the right in 1980, but it wasn’t his first bid for the presidency. Reagan vied with Nixon in 1968 during the presidential primaries and at the Republican convention, and then challenged Gerald Ford in 1976 for the Republican nomination, where Reagan won enough key states, including Texas and California, to ensure a contested Republican convention that summer. Ford won the nomination at the convention, but after he lost to Jimmy Carter, Reagan became the favorite among Republicans in 1980. Reagan might have lost in 1980, too, had it not been for “stagflation” and the fall of detente between the United States and the Soviet Union. High unemployment, inflation rates and oil prices in the late 1970s convinced many Americans that Reagan was right: Government, or at least President Carter, was the problem.

The Democrats have also had their own share of political rebirths since the 1950s, although their experiences may serve more as a caution to Clinton than an inspiration. Adlai Stevenson was nominated for president twice, and almost a third time. His first chance for the presidency came in 1952 where he lost to Dwight Eisenhower — badly. Stevenson won only 89 electoral votes. His humiliating defeat did not deter Democrats from nominating him again in 1956, but the Korean War was over, the economy was booming and Republicans claimed responsibility for both. The result was Stevenson achieving an even more abysmal showing than he had in 1952 — winning only 73 electoral votes.

Sadly, using historical references and examples from Williams Jennings Bryan, Al Smith, Hubert Humphrey, and even Ronald Reagan won’t help liberals make the case for Hillary Clinton. There has never been a candidate in American history who has broken so many laws or has actively sold access to the federal government to despotic regimes for personal profit. The brazen level of corruption is on a level never before seen in American politics.

Please share this with your friends on Facebook and Twitter. We can’t allow Hillary Clinton or anyone with the last name Obama run for the White House again!
