Since I’m doing lists, I’ll bring one created by Mr. Pelican Pants up from the comments….
1980: Bush is VP
1984: Bush is VP
1988: Bush is Prez
1992: Clinton is Prez
1996: Clinton is Prez
2000: Bush 2 is Prez
2004: Bush 2 is Prez
2008: Clinton 2 is Prez??In other words, if HRC is elected this year, two families will have effectively run this country for 32 years.
If she’s elected, it would more likely be 36 years when all is said and done, Pelican. There have been only three “natural” one-term Presidents (which takes out the never-elected Gerald Ford) since the turn of the last century (William Taft, Herbert Hoover, Jimmy Carter), and only Carter did not take the Oval Office from a fellow party member. Also, all 3 turned over the Oval Office to the opposition party.
