I think this woman's pretty sharp. I don't see her (yet) as a Presidential possibility. I could certainly imagine a spot on the ticket as the VP nominee.

She's already shown that she can competently handle a role as co-CEO (I'm a little loaded on meds but she shared the top spot @ Hewlett-Packard if I remember correctly) and effectively, at that.

She's got a good head for business and we - as in the U.S. - need a business person in the Executive Branch. I don't have a clue what she's got to offer with regards to foreign policy and that's both vitally important and traditionally, the VP's bailiwick. I don't think it's outside of her capability to learn though.

Nothing I've seen leads me to believe that she's Commander-in-Chief capable in terms of our military escapades. She's a consensus builder, though. That's a refreshing alternative to the 'my way or I'll veto' we've been forced to swallow thus far.

Four years as a VP would expose her to the things she's not rock-solid on yet. Give'er 8 years of practice and I'll volunteer to run her campaign for the top spot.

Interesting woman. The only person I'd like to see as VP more is Carson.


Actually, she screwed up at HP and was forced out. She has been successful with many other ventures though.

I posted on the other thread; where Carly had stated..."that we need to get away from those 'Professional Politicians' and return to the way it was back when our first political people were elected"---she may be SPOT ON and why we either have always leaned towards a 'WAR HERO' or a man with a law degree!

Look where that's taken our nation in it's short history! Just say'n, seems that we could modify our selection process and we'd still be ahead of the GAME!

I don't think Americans want a "Career Politicians" any more & are sick in the stomach over " The Political Families".

I read in the 70's (had to be psychology or sociology class), that most people actually pick a father or husband figure. * But people still loved Sigmund Freud, back then noway *
Now..I don't want to believe that. But it would explain why I'm always surprised and saying
"How the hell did this guy get in?!"
Maybe, most people WANT to be lead. Maybe most people, want to hear " it will be okay, it is for your own good, I got this..."
If I hear anything even remotely like that from man or woman... my alarms are going off. laugh


Well, about that 'Sigmund Freud' thingy; actually we were just learning what a huge pervert/druggy he was and how he manipulated so many of his 'THEORIES'...so the text book case was just how HE WANTED THE RESULTS TO BE! So it did 'ROCK' our little trusting world of things we'd been fed; things that were shoved down our throats in high schools as 'FACT' were only uncovered lies and utter BS in college---SMH...soooo disillusioned!

But I can well recall how angry the staunch Democrats and the Republicans were that we {the 18yr olds} wanted our Right To Vote; my parents thought I'd grown an extra head when I told them I was going to attend a rally and planned on marching on our Capital of Topeka! Between the ending the Viet Nam war and wanting the right to vote those - 2 big issues were worth fighting for in my early teenage years; oddly I don't recall having father envy issues on either of those...actually it was quite the reverse! LOL


Sigmund Freud- also a huge opium addict. With major "mommy issues "
Which I'm not going into ... maybe that is why he was an addict & wrote crazy **** .

Penis Envy ... My ***! :banana:


Actually I believe it was Cocaine.

Lpdon,
I checked 7 sites on Sigmund Freud. And at least 3 sites on drugs & history.
You are right :thumbsup:
