YUP! Ya got me there. I sorta do freak out when I think that reasonable people actually believe what they see on the "Republican Television Network"... FoxSnooze! Thanks for the laughs!

According to gambling professionals, it’s pretty stupid to bet on any Republican, period.

You want those odds Boxy? I'll take you up on the "President Winner (party)" one.

Betting on Hillary this early is foolish. IMO, she will win, but so much can happen (and usually does) in the last year, even the last 4 months of any presidential election.
GBW was on his way to make a historic "Immigrant Reform" package as his legacy when he took office. 8 months later the WTC attack happened and his signature legislation was left in the dust of the NY attack. Now GWB is remembered for his Failed Oil War in Iraq, and for the Bush Economic Meltdown.

Assuming the Economy doesn't dip into recession, it's hard to see a scenario where she doesn't win...unless she torpedos her own boat. Jeb Bush would have a real shot at it if his last name wasn't Bush.
Elizabeth Warren would have a great shot against Hillary in the primaries if she ran... she must have been promised something big if Hillary wins because this was Warrens only shot... she would be 73 in eight years.

There is little doubt that Jeb Bush possesses strong credentials for appealing to Hispanic voters.
He speaks fluent Spanish. His wife, Columba, was born in Mexico. For two years in his 20s, he lived in Venezuela, immersing himself in the country’s culture. He was born in Texas and is a former governor of Florida, two states with large Hispanic populations.
But on one occasion, it appears, Mr. Bush may have become a bit carried away: He listed himself as Hispanic on a 2009 voter-registration application in Miami-Dade County.

Barack Obama listed himself as Black on his 2010 census form. He is mixed race as his mother was white. He had the option of choosing both. The census instructions were as follows:
“people may choose to provide two or more races either by marking two or more race response boxes, by providing multiple write-in responses, or by some combination of marking boxes and writing in responses.”

OK, and what part HISPANIC is Mr. Bush that he chose that?

According to what the census says, you choose the race you identify with. Mr Obama chose black because that is what he identifies with. Mr Bush has a wife that is of Mexican heritage, and he spent years in Venezuela...I don't think is a stretch that he identifies with that.
My former boss was born Italian catholic and married a Jewish woman and now considers himself jewish in faith and in ethnicity.
What about a child who was born in Africa and immigrates to the US... is he or she African American?
In the end, does it really matter, or is it just another way to get your political rocks off?

Your gratification is apparently the issue, not mine. Bush is CLEARLY not Hispanic nor does he identify his preference as such. He admitted it was AN ERROR, so your attempts at justification are useless. I don't agree with Obama's choice of preference and honestly don't agree with the black community and media constantly referring to him as Black this and black that and first black........ He is not black, he is of mixed race. With that said, I can understand that he personally feels black, likely because of the narrow minded mentality of "whites" that historically have believe that 1 drop of black blood makes someone black. Our history on the topic is horrible and likely will continue to exist for more years than I have left on this earth.
