Alright, let's say George Pataki manages to get a cushy job at Fox for a bit, and the Establishment, pretty much desperate after both Christie and Rubio decline to run, courts him, and he narrowly survives the Primary, with Cruz and Paul giving him a roughing up, and he picks Liz Dole to give some Conservatives relief.

Meanwhile on the Democratic side, Fmr. Governor Ted Strickalnd manages to enter after Hillary Clinton suffers a heart attack in 2015, and for some reason, pulls out an upset in both New Hampshire and South Carolina, and long after, wins the Primary, and picks fellow Fmr. Governor and Ambassador Gary Locke as his Veep.

After losing the Primary for Governor in 2014, a pissed off Lincoln Chaffee switches to an Independent, and runs third party in the 2016 Election, picking Former Senator Dean Barkley as Veep.

So how would these irrelevant fare? (Yes I know this is an immensley impossible scenario, but let's just have fun here)

Uh, I'm joking, I know that Pataki/Dole/Easley/Locke/Chaffee/Barkley are far past their political relevance, look at the title.

Easley is a crook. No way he would win anything.

I think it would be more just based on the tongue twisters that phrases starting with President Pataki are sure to spawn.
