She has far from zero chance (check out odds at Bovada or hosts of other sites that show odds)

Bovada has her at 70-1

But, remember what they were saying about President Obama in the early days of the Primary?

But, my guess is she is tired of Congress and if she loses this time will wait for a Senate seat or HI Governor, and then run for President when she is older and more experienced.

There is always the possibility of an independent run if she keeps getting snubbed by the party elites. She certainly has the personality to do it just to screw with them.

70 to 1 is just to get some action on the site to make money
True odds are a lot longer. A gazillion to one.
Obama was a Senator, won a state wide race.
Tusi is a Rep. Huge difference. Never won a state wide election.
My guess is she does not want an embarrassing loss to another Dem in a primary ala Eric Cantor

And hopefully all those who were *outraged* by the idea that Tulsi is a Russian asset who was going to run as an independent will admit Hillary was right.

So exercising a constitutional right (to run as an independent) makes you a Russian asset?

You must really hate Tulsi or love war?

Of Course not
but
Putin would still love it

Putin is probably laughing about the impeachment process and probably approves
That does not make Pelosi a Russian asset

I think its more of a no chance candidate being a publicity whore
I don't think she can even win her seat back let alone win a Presidential election
She dropped out of the Rep race because she knew Kai Kahele, was going to kick her butt in a Primary
Hawaii allows a rep to keep a seat and run for President. She dropped out because she was going to be embarrassed like Eric Cantor

Really Jill Stein is also a Russian Asset? (as per quote in that article).

This is getting absurd?

Publicity whore, is pretty disrespectful (and sexist), she is running for President, of course she is going to take advantage of media activities.

There is such a double Standard with Major Gabbard it is absurd....

I really hate Tulsi.

I am not a foreign policy voter. I don't give a f***. So when Tulsi fans always accuse everyone of being pro-war, I just shrug.

What do you hate about her?

Drug legalization?

Universal Healthcare?

Education Reform?

The fact that she is a female Officer?

If you don't care about foreign policy why do you even care about imagined Russian conspiracies (which clearly don't exist?

You provide no logic, you just call her a Russian asset and then go on to say you don't care about foreign policy?

I don't know Jill Stein. Maybe Putin approves of whatever she is doing.
The article I posted is about the house race and Kai Kalele raising a lot of money to beat Tulsi in a primary

I think any house Rep running for President is a publicity whore. Man or Woman.
To me its like the school janitor demanding to be considered for Principal
Win at least a state wide race and get back to me and I might consider you for my presidential vote
