  9. Let's put Hillary in the White House. I'm sure her universal health plan will dwarf the cost of the war on terror, WWI, WWII, and WWIII with Iran combined.

    Here's what I think will happen. Hillary gets elected with an obscure running mate. Running mate dies when VP. Hillary appoints Bill as VP (heck she ruled the roost when he was in office). Bill has Hill terminated and becomes President again. As president he discovers he's serving a third term which is in violation of the 22nd Amendment and declares a constitutional crisis, enacting marshall law. He contracts with the Chinese army to enforce the marshall law (gotta take care of his friends). The Chinese Army disarms the US Armed Forces by order of the Commander in Chief (Billy). Hu Jintao declares the United States a Chinese Territory and appoints Bill Clinton as Governor, and Ted Kennedy booze Czar.

    Bill Clinton rolls joints using the original Declaration of Independence and Constitution, but never inhales. Can't trust 231 year old parchment; but if it was Jack Daniels, Ted Kennedy would be all over it.

    The American people are oppressed under the Clinton regime, the economy collapses and the United States becomes a third world country.

    Don't you just love a conspiracy?
