do you realize that since the 80s there has always been a bush or clinton as president, vice president, or...?

Assuming Obama wins, in 2013. Hillary Clinton plans on stepping down as Secretary of State after Obama's first term. If Romney wins, don't be surprised if he appoints Jeb Bush to something.

A lot of people I know cited the fact that there has been a Bush or a Clinton on the ticket in every election since 1980 as a reason to vote for Obama in the 2008 primary. I though that was a silly reason. If Hillary Clinton was the most qualified candidate (and she was), why should you vote against her because her husband and two guys from a different family happened to serve within the term limit rules previously? I understand the need for term limits, but within that, vote for the best candidate and appoint the most qualified people regardless of their last names.

Two of our top five greatest Presidents were named Roosevelt, just as an example.

Even when Clinton was in office, there was always a bush in the oval office

What about Reagan, you forgot Reagan. It's possible it will end with Obama as a one termer.

It will end 2016.

Yeah, right. Can you provide a link?

When people stop voting for them.
