Actually it has everything to do with the global economy. If America is doing better, there will be a second term.

Bingo. Despite the slow rate, we are in fact recovering, and we'll be that much further along 4 years from now. There will be a power vacuum in the GOP, and there will be another huge pool of candidates throwing their hat in the ring, beating each other up. And, sad to say, but who exactly in the GOP will emerge as the seasoned, ready-for-prime time candidate? Ted Cruz? Rubio? Nikki haley? Tom Cotton? None of them get my schween hard, sorry...

Paul Ryan.

Yes, forgot about Paul Ryan--need I say more?
For all his status in the GOP, what has he done? Couldn't deliver his own state for Romney, talked tough with Trump only to offer a lukewarm endorsement (and has now totally disappears from the landscape of this election). I normally don't buy Trump's cry about career politicians, but Ryan is a guy who, for me, has climbed the ladder simply because he's a young conservative who was a running mate on a flaming train wreck of a ticket. Have we not learned anything from 8 years of Obama and a likely 4 from Hillary? The only thing that will allow GOP to wrangle away some support and the White House is a centrist. Hate to say it, but true.
