Challenge: POTUS Ann Coulter

as scary as she is this isn't that far fetched.

she is one of the mostly widely read and well known people in the country even if she is contraversial.

i would put the pod in 1998 and clinton actually get kicked out of office. Gore would pardon him for his various sins and due to his lack of personality and people generally having had enough of the scandals W wins in 2000

while this is going on ann would run for mayor of new york. new york has had republican leadership in the mayors office since 1992. she has a successful run fixing the schools and tax system like mike bloomburg has done in otl.

big pod george bush's presidency is solidly successful with balanced budgets only limited conflict in afgahnistan with wide international support key banking reform in 2004-5 and reform in social security and medicare leading to balanced budgets his last two years in office

he leaves and cheney of course doesnt want to follow. ann runs in the primary on her record as mayor of new york and wins as a well known person and someone who is adored by the conservatives. being able to win new york is huge for her.

assuming she runs against obama (hillary wouldnt be viable if bill was actually impreached) she can point to a good record of public service and use her confrantational debating style to make obama look soft on defense and budget control

with new york and the regular red states firmly in her camp she would win


not wholly unrealistic if the 1998 repubs have more balls and george bush gets much much much better advice
 
Liberal firearms nothing, you better watch out for what the B-Team is packing. We ain't no liberals. This Coultergeist does not represent ol' fashion American values.
 
After the immense failure of President Obama, a desperate America elects Ann Coulter in 2012. A year after she is inaugurated as the first woman president (this is verified), President Coulter orders the arrest of the entire Congress, and proclaims herself Fuhrer of the United States of Vinland.
 
Nuclear War? Plus a Global Pandemic? And then maybe a Dinokiller Asteroid hits Earth?

And Ann Coulter is the last survivoring person on Earth?

Probably Less ASB than any other alternative.

No offense, but this is utterly absurd. Yes, the mayors of New York have been Republican, but they have all been socially moderate-to-liberal, on of the remnants of the once-powerful "Rockefeller Republican" grouping. New York City is in fact one of the most Democratic cities in America, and the conservatives of Coulter's stripe would not get more than 5% of the vote.

And even if ASBs intervened and caused her to win the election, Coulter would be a total failure in any position of genuine responsibility. Ideologues never do well when they are forced to actually govern, and she would receive no cooperation from the New York City Council.

yea i might have been stretching it :)

the repub mayors are hated by the city council anyway they just do what they have to do without them. bloomburg fired the whole board of education and took over direct control of it with the result of lower violence increased graduation rates and higher test score

if coulter was somehow involved with guiliani and endorsed by him warmly its possible if she kept herself in check that she could win

the current repub is about to be relected by about an 80 percent margin
 
MIke Bloomburg will (of course) be re-elected, but the Republican label was only a flag of convenience on his first run to avoid a Democratic primary battle. He dropped the Republican designation in 2007 and is now running as an Independent.
 
Coulter at POTUS would force all 310 million Americans to run for cover before she blew the whole country up. Ann Coulter is batshit insane - I call her the Annie the Psycho for a reason. She couldn't get elected, for a bunch of reasons.

You assume that she'll blow the country up in time when she'll come under vollies of sniper fire the moment she heads outside. Hell, I'm sure the Secret Service would arrange for her to 'choke on a pretzel'. ;)

You realize that itself is just about ASB?:D

If she's not ticking people off by calling for the return of slavery and the ending of women's right to vote, or making racist "jokes" about genocide or "jokes" about bombing the NY Times, then no one listens to her and she winds up broke and unknown.

I know she's an insane fascist bitch, but is she really calling for the return of slavery? If so, why hasn't someone done anything about this dribbling whore? :mad:

Partly because of the First Amendment. Partly because the murder of insane bitches and bastards of any persuasion is a rare event.
 
I'd work full time to put her in office. She's one of the few sane persons around. But, I doubt she'd run - she'd have to take a major pay cut!
