law States Presidents can be in office 4 years, back to back. But if that law was not there would the people vote for him again? And Why?

No. Just look at the polls.

No he should not. The US was founded on people who wanted freedom from many things, one being a King. The laws regarding the office of the President were enacted so that no one man could in effect become the supreme ruler of the US. Agree or disagree with these laws as you wish but they are there to protect this country from becoming something it was not intended to be and will continue to protect future generations from this same thing. The President is not a supreme leader he can not do things at his whim, there are supposedly checks and balances in place to ensure that the will of the majority is carried out and not the maniacal wishes of one man drunk with power. Unfortunately with the passing of the Patriot Act Bush could legally suspend elections if he deemed a sufficient national emergency and remain President until he sees the threat as passed.

I don't think that he would get even nominated. If there is such a rush to keep the last 8 years going, then the Republicans should nominate Cheney. He is the power behind the idiot. He is also the reason for the war, the changes in the constitution, the secrecy of the administration, etc. If people want Bush back so much, nominate Cheney.

Depends. Is 30% a majority? I know he probably thinks it is, but that doesn't really matter.
In addition, the 22nd Amendment of the Constitution says that a president can't be elected more than twice, not that a president can be in office 4 years, back to back.

No there is reason why they pass an admendment to limit it to 2 terms after FDR.
This nation go the grip it wrong to keep electing a president beyond 8 years.
I am sure Bush won't run either.

No, law says President can only be in office for two terms, and they do not have to be back to back.
Also, he would not win. Just taking the Republican nomination would be hard.

Yes! I would i think he is the kind of leader the majority of people like by that i meant once whom it strong and can stand a lot of pressure including the media to stand out for what he believe is good for the country in the current political climate men like Mr. bush are in the single digits.

No his approval ratings are way too low. He would not be elected to a 3rd term. Now Clinton well he may have been if his tally wacker would behave.

it depends on who he would be running against. If it were Hilliary, he would win in a landslide. If it were Obama, we may be looking at another recount. If it were Al Gore, Al probably learned from his mistakes he might succeed in stealing the election.

Seeing what the Dems have to offer and their quest to tax us all to death I'd vote for him again.
