Both are stong candidates, but neither wins the nomination.
Clinton's downfalls: 1) She is a woman, which for many will be a big issue. 2) Her husband has already been President. Since many people view married couples as one unit, a lot of people will see this as a violation of term limits. Plus a lot of people just don't like Bill. 3) She is a "carpet-bagger." She did the same thing to New York that the Yankees did to the South after the Civil War. As each state has two Senators, an Arkansas senator can have just as much clout as one from New York. Move, then run after you have lived there for a length of time, not the other way around.
Obamas downfall: A) He is relatively new to politics. Most people expect a long political career before the jump to President. 2) His race. He is half-white half-black. The media keeps calling him "the African American candidate". Technicaly, African-American is the correct term in the case, as his dad is Kenyan, but they are calling him that for the wrong reasons. They are trying to impl;y that he is the "black candidate". There are enough racists out there without the media making playing up his race. This will lose a lot of support, even from those who would normally have no problem with is race. C) His name. In the view of many Americans, since the name sounds Missle Eastern, he must be Middle Eastern, and that means he might support the terrorists. Yes, this is a stubborn, pigheaded, racists viewpoint, but it is how many Americans think, nonetheless.
I think both will do strong in the initial primaries, but I think Bill Richardson or another career Democrat will win the nomination.

Oh? Which plans? Hillary's plan to get out of Iraq now, or her plan to be there ten more years? Maybe her plan to give us the same healthcare they have in Canada? Since part of Canada's plan involves those who can afford to going to New Hampshire to get treated, it probably won't work.
How about Barak's plan to invade Pakistan? Is that a good idea in your view? Other than that, does he actually have any plans?
Whose the bigger idiot, the candidate that says stupid things, or the people that think they are great plans?

it is purely an fool speaking. while the worst president the U. S. has ever had comes and says something like this, you comprehend finished properly that he's attempting to make himself seem harmless. in actuality he did this for the era of his presidency, blame everybody and every person else for the blunders and the take the compliment for the reliable issues. yet then Bush has purely been crushed by using Truman and Nixon to the backside ever approval rankings, Truman's extra with the aid of fact of situations and Nixon's with the aid of fact of Watergate. For a president to get under 50% while he had the main spike submit 9/11 is wonderful. He has the biggest distinction is intense and occasional for a US president. For the final 4 years of his presidency he became into purely above 50% and that became into on the commencing up of 2005. possibly he's annoyed that a president who has purely been in workplace for the duration of the worst recession ever with the aid of fact the Nineteen Thirties manages to get a some distance better approval score than he did. possibly he's purely attempting to shape the opinion human beings have of him. possibly he's democrat bating. I propose, Clinton had an approval score of 55.a million% on common. How is he the worst president ever? No recession, no considerable warfare, no considerable disaster different than mendacity approximately some woman. purely Kennedy and Eisenhower have had greater approval rankings with Johnson up there on the comparable 55.a million%. and 3 of the 4 appropriate submit warfare presidents have been DEMOCRATS!!! fairly some the recessions have been led to by using REPUBLICANS!!! Hmm, circulate determine!

None of the above. Neither one has what it takes to run a country.
