Why Obama Mentioned His Beaten Foe Hillary Clinton in the SOTU: A Theory

And finally, and perhaps I’m reaching here, the President has an eye toward the future… 2016. We know that he is a forward thinking and strategic guy. Let’s assume he wins re-election. I don’t think anybody sees Joe Biden, who will by then be 74 as a future President. The Democrats have four years to find and develop a rising star. Who is on the horizon now? I would have to say that on November 7 Hillary would be the odds-on favorite to be the next nominee. She’ll likely step down after this term and that will give her four years to catch up on her rest, make another fortune on the private side, burnish her reputation further with Bill’s Foundation, and raise a war chest for the election.

Yes. Please.
