26. I am not sure that Hillary is the best candidate for 2016.

I could see her maybe for 1 term with the primary purpose to set up a new strong up and coming Democrat for 2020. If you could find the right VP candidate on the Democratic ticket it might set things up for the VP to then be elected for 8 years while finding the best VP candidate for those 2 terms.

We need to be thinking about a longer term plan while avoiding the clown car in the primary season that the Republicans are noted for.
