I noticed something today as I was watching RNC coverage and saw an interview with Dan Quayle.
There seems to have been a bit of a trend lately regarding vice-presidents. Presidents who have two terms seem to have a lot of VP's who run the next campaign for President. Case in point, Reagan has 2 terms, Bush, his VP, runs for President in '88. Or a mor recent example, Clinton has 2 terms, and Gore, his VP, runs for President in 2000.
Now here's a terrifying (but hypothetical) question:
If Bush Sr. had won in 1992, would Dan Quayle have run for President in 1996? Would he have actually had a chance to win?
And (here's the real scary part) if he had have won, what do you think may have happened over the past 8 years (assuming he'd win 2 terms, he'd still be President right now)? Who would have been his VP?
...the horror...
