A new choice has appeared, Michael Flynn, a lieutenant-general who has written a book on foreign policy, "The Field of Fight: How We Can Win the Global War Against Radical Islam and Its Allies," with Michael Ledeen. He is a Democrat! He was leader of the Defense Intelligence Agency, but resigned over policy differences. He seems as coy as Trump on the abortion issue (wikipedia:
On a July 10, 2016 interview on This Week, when asked by host Martha Raddatz about the issue of abortion, Flynn stated, "women have to be able to choose."[25][26] On July 11, 2016, he clarified to Fox News that he is pro-life.[27]
When asked about same-sex marriage, Flynn responded, "What people do in their private lives, these are not big issues that our country’s dealing with." )
He is a foreign policy advisor to Trump. Unfortunately, no-one knows his birthday, so I can't say much about whether he would help Trump! Except that he's a Joneser 57 to 58 years old, so the Saturn Return would be affecting his term as vice-president, and possibly his chances of getting elected in the first place this year. Of course, that did not stop the elder Bush from winning the position in 1980. He seemed pretty sharp and sensible in the interview on the PBS Newshour tonight; quite a contrast to Trump, and a challenge to Republican partisans. If he were advising Trump, he would probably mellow out Trump's attacks on potential Muslim allies abroad, from what I heard him say.

I thought about combining scores of the presidential and veep candidates. Of course, the veep matters a lot less, and I don't know all the scores to see the effect historically. Hillary's veep choices do not seem strong presidential possibilities, according to their score, but at least they are positive, whereas Pence's score is only even.

She's smart too; she graduated cum laude; must have actually read some books. Stay tuned tonight for her nationwide debut.

Except that there is no election next year. The next one is in 2020. Also, she is not yet 35. And I do not think she has political aspirations.

Classic incumbents who were booted out, as indicated by the Saturn Return:
Martin Van Buren, 1840
Benjamin Harrison, 1892
William Howard Taft, 1912
Herbert Hoover, 1932
Jimmy Carter, 1980
Classic losers who had the Saturn Return coming:
Andrew Jackson, 1824
Henry Clay, 1832
Millard Fillmore, 1856
Horatio Seymour, 1868
Winfield Scott Hancock, 1880
Charles Evans Hughes, 1916
Al Smith, 1928
Adlai Stevenson, 1956
Barry Goldwater, 1964
Hubert Humphrey, 1968
Walter Mondale, 1984
Michael Dukakis, 1988
Incumbents who were booted out, but didn't have a Saturn Return coming (but....):
John Adams, 1800 (no popular vote taken; plus his score was lower than Jefferson's, whom he had beat last time)
John Quincy Adams, 1828 (but he had beat Jackson in 1824, who had a Saturn Return before Adams' Saturn Return just before 1828; Jackson also had a higher horoscope score)
Grover Cleveland, 1888 (but Cleveland won the popular vote, and beat him in a rematch in 1892; plus Harrison had a higher horoscope score)
George H W Bush, 1992 (but Bill Clinton had a higher horoscope score, and Bush also faced Ross Perot)
In 46 out of 57 elections, the winner had a higher score than the loser. In the 11 cases where the loser had the higher score, 7 of them also had a Saturn Return (Jackson, Van Buren, Fillmore, Hancock, B. Harrison, Goldwater, Carter)
4 candidates had a lower score, and no Saturn Return, and still won:
Adams 9-5 beat Jefferson 7-0, 1796 (but Jefferson won the rematch, and was re-elected)
TR 13-13 beat Parker 17-8, 1904
Taft 12-9 beat Bryan 8-3, 1908
JFK 13-6 beat Nixon 17-6, 1960
In the latter 3 cases, the new moon before election favored the winner. (in 1800 and through 1848, the new moon was not a factor because the election was held over a 5 or 6 week period)
Plus, TR and Taft had Jupiter rising.
Jupiter rising in the chart of a candidate almost always signifies a winner. Again, you have to look at balancing factors though.
Winning candidates with Jupiter rising (J):
Polk 21-2 J beat Clay 6-13, 1844
Lincoln 15-2 J beat Douglas 13-18, Breckinridge 2-23 J and Bell 4-15, 1860
Lincoln 15-2 J beat McClellan 13-13, 1864
Grant 16-4 J beat Seymour 6-12, 1868
Grant 16-4 L beat Greeley, 4-13, 1872
TR 13-13 J beat Parker 17-8, 1904
Taft 12-9 J beat Bryan 8-3, 1908
Johnson 10-7 J beat Goldwater 19-9, 1964
Bill Clinton 19-2 J beat George HW Bush 15-4, 1992
Bill Clinton 19-2 J beat Bob Dole, 13-21, 1996
Who lost with Jupiter rising?
Major party candidates:
Taft, 1912, who also ran against both TR (Jupiter also rising) and Wilson
Mondale 10-13, 1984, who ran against a much-higher scoring candidate, Reagan 19-5
3rd party candidates:
Breckinridge, 1860, whose raw score was the lowest of any candidate in history, 2-23
George Wallace, 1968, who had a dismal 2-6 score.
TR, who ran against both Taft and Wilson.
In this election, Hillary Rodham Clinton has Jupiter rising, and a 12-9 score (just like Taft). Trump has a score of 8-4 (much like Bryan). The new moon favors Hillary (just like 1908). It's a close decision. On balance, Hillary is favored.
No candidates who ran in 2016 have a Saturn Return coming, except Rick Santorum. However, some who didn't run, do. Roughly, all those born between 1957 and 1960:
Mike Pence, score 9-9
Tim Kaine, 13-9
Terry McAuliffe, 11-3
Mark Cuban, 8-10
Andrew Cuomo, 12-6
Janet Napolitano, 12-5
Rahm Emmanuel, 12-12
Bob Casey, 4-10
Jack Markell, 11-7
Amy Klobuchar, 6-9

(08-29-2016, 02:53 PM)Eric the Green Wrote: [ -> ]I have suggested that the 2016 election is a lot like 1908 as far as who scores what and what the indicators are. Taft has the same 12-9 score as Hillary, and both have Jupiter rising, giving them an advantage over a candidate with a better score by percentage, but with a positive score of only 8 (Trump 8-4, Bryan 8-3). The new moon before election favored the party in power in 1908, as it does today. Bryan and Trump are also both called "populists" (though Trump mostly erroneously so), with both appealing to a less-educated, more-religious group of voters mostly in the South and the plains states. The parties have switched, but Bryan had already taken over the Democrats for the new populism, and Trump may do so to the Republicans for his false populism, the "alt.right." Taft is a lot like Hillary in that she wants to continue her predecessor's progressive policies but lacks his charismatic, persuasive skills. Still, you can't necessarily say that 1908 established a pattern that continued into 1912 and beyond, which might parallel today's possible patterns. Perhaps, in some ways, it's possible. But I don't see a liberal Republican in the Wilson mold available, although whoever is elected may face a war in the world that we later join in the second term of whoever is elected in 2020, if (s)he has one.
Another parallel with 2016 might be 1964. The horoscope scores of the two major party candidates are not virtually identical, as in 1908, but similar. Johnson had a lower score percentage-wise than Goldwater, but Johnson had Jupiter rising, as Hillary does, and Goldwater had Mars rising, as Trump does. And the new moon before election favored the party in power. Goldwater represented an insurgent wing of the Republican Party, as Trump does today, which might suggest that this insurgent wing may take over the party in the future just as the previous insurgent wing did--despite losing the initial election to a fairly weak candidate in a landslide, as happened to Goldwater, and as might happen to Trump. I would dissent, though, if this pattern is used to predict that the alt right will go on to win the presidency in future elections, as the 1964 Republicans did.

btw both Trump and Goldwater have/had Saturn transiting their 4th house/Nadir during the election, a bad sign, while Hillary and LBJ have/had Saturn near their horizon, a good sign.

The last time those two events occurred in the same year?
1860 - when there of course was a "realigning election," which also directly caused a civil war.
The last four Martian perihelion/oppositions have also presaged some sort of violent conflict between Muslims and the adherents of some other religion(s): Vs. both Christians and Jews in 1956 - Billy Joel's "trouble in the Suez;" vs. Hindus in 1971 - the Indian-Pakistani war over Bangladesh (and the iconic humanitarian crisis it caused, resulting in the George Harrison-led We Are The World-like Concert For Bangladesh); vs. Jews in 1988 - the start of the Palestinian "Intifada" against Israel; and vs. Christians in 2003 - the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
So either a civil war or a religious war, or both, is possible in 2020, astrologically speaking.
