I'm thinking 2016 Both parities (especially GOP) will HAVE to have a woman (or minority) somewhere on the ticket. That IS the time we are in IMHO.
I heard Condoleeza Rice's name floating around but I think anyone from or related to the Bush administration needs to stay the hell away. IMHO it's political suicide (and that includes Jeb Bush even tho he's not a dumb as his brother).
