HILLARY PICKS BILL CLINTON AS VP RUNNING MATE!

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – While Republicans are struggling to pick their nominee for president in the 2016 U.S. presidential elections, the Democrats are in a conundrum on who will be their vice presidential nominee.

But it is up to Hillary Clinton, not the Democrats, to pick her running mate. On Sunday, Clinton officially declared her candidacy for president. No other Democrat has expressed any desire to challenge Clinton.

Today, in her home state of New York, Hillary announced that she has picked husband Bill to be her running mate.

The U.S. Constitution limits the presidential term to a total of eight years, so Bill is ineligible to run again for president. But the constitution says nothing about a two-term president running for vice president!

Capitalizing on this constitutional loophole, Hillary picked her husband as her VP running mate.

“I think this would be the ultimate dream team; ” Hillary told reporters, “the American people will get two presidents for the price of one!”

There are amendments to the constitution that vaguely address whether or not a former two-term president can seek the vice presidency, and the Republican National Committee — caught offguard by Hillary’s announcement — is scrambling to challenge her choice of running mate.

The final decision may eventually rest with the U.S. Supreme Court.

In the meantime, Americans get two “everyday heroes.” Clinton and Clinton.

REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES CHOOSE THEIR RUNNING MATES

April 14, 2015 Pol Pinoy Leave a comment

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – U.S. Presidential Candidates don’t normally pick their vice presidential running mate until right before their party’s national convention. But 2016 is defying the odds. And Hillary Clinton has a lot to do with it.

After Clinton announced that she was running for president, the three declared Republican presidential aspirants immediately revealed their choice for vice president, all of them women.

The Republican strategy for 2016 is to attract two powerful voting blocks — Hispanics and women. It is no wonder that two of the Republican candidates are of Hispanic heritage (Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio), and that presumptive candidate Jeb Bush had tried to identify as Hispanic in his 2009 voter registration.

To complete the election strategy, the declared Republican candidates have chosen these women to be their running mates:

Ted Cruz – Former Congresswoman Michele Bachmann of Minnesota

Rand Paul – Governor Jan Brewer of Arizona

Marco Rubio – Conservative columnist Ann Coulter

Meanwhile, The Adobo Chronicles learned from informed sources that when former Florida Governor Jeb Bush finally declares his candidacy, he will also reveal his choice of vice president, conservative author and blogger, Filipina-American Michelle Malkin. His strategy seems to be going after Hispanics, women and Asians.

It makes us wonder: in a national, televised debate among all these talkative women vice presidential candidates, who will end up having the last word?

MANNY PACQUIAO WILL RUN FOR PHILIPPINES PRESIDENT IN 2016, TIM TEBOW IS RUNNINGMATE

LOS ANGELES, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – U.S. mainstream media totally missed out on a big, breaking story when they reported that American football quarterback free agent Tim Tebow “paid a visit” to Filipino boxing champion Manny Pacquiao during the latter’s sparring session.

Once all the photos were taken and the media reporters had left, The Adobo Chronicles sat down for a one-on-one interview with Pacquiao.

We didn’t ask him any questions about his upcoming fight with Floyd Mayweather (May 2, 2015, at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.) Rather, we asked the Filipino congressman about his future political plans.

“I’m glad you asked that,” Pacquiao told us, “because today, I am officially announcing that I am running for president in the 2016 elections in the Philippines.”

“I can now also confirm that I have chosen my vice presidential runningmate — Tim Tebow.”

Tebow played for the Denver Broncos and New York Jets of the National Football League, and is known for openly proclaiming his Christian values. He was born in the Philippines to missionary parents. He is 27 years old.

The Philippine Constitution sets the minimum age qualification for president and vice president at 40, but Pacquiao does not see it as a problem. “After my fight with Mayweather, I will go back to congress and seek to amend the constitution to reduce the minimum age qualification to 25 for both president and vice president,” he said. Pacquiao himself would be underage at 36, unless the constitution is amended.

“As president and vice president, Tim and I will work to make the Philippines the number one country in the world in terms of boxers, football players and born-again Christians,” Pacquiao told us.

Like Tebow, Pacquiao is a devout Christian.
