Without a previous radical evangelical female republican running for the VP slot, I wonder how America would have regarded a candidate Bachmann. There isn't much doubt that she was given instant attention because of her stark similarities to Palin. Before last week's debate, the media essentially portrayed her as Palin 2.0. But imagine how uniquely buffoonish and radical she would seem if we didn't already have a Sarah Palin to compare her to. Has Sarah Palin given Bachmann credibility?

While I hate this excessive hyperbole expression normally, a President Bachmann might make moving to Canada not only a possibility but in a person's (whether they be liberal, conservative, moderate or apolitical) best interests.

The one good thing about a President Bachmann for America -- many Americans would start learning foreign languages.

Like it made us buy lots of guns, Bibles, and Don't Tread on Me flags and made the tea party come about.

Why do people even bother to ask questions like this?

Nothing nor no one could make a President Bachmann possible.

I must admit, however, after the debate, she came across as attractive, intelligent, well spoken and competent.  Unlike Palin, Bachmann has some substance.

But a President Bachmann is really pushing the envelope to extremes.

We don't elect kindergarten teachers to be President.
