When it comes to political betting the US presidential election is the equivalent of the Superbowl, or the World Series. The odds that there is going to be a female president are 11/8 versus 4/7 for a male president. Still, Hillary Clinton is clear-cut favorite to win the election. Other female contenders include Elizabeth Warren and Condoleeza Rice. Then again, George Clooney and Clint Eastwood are also being considered -though way, way behind- notwithstanding the fact that they haven’t even played a president in a movie. Kinda makes you wonder why they don’t include Kang and Kodos as well.

Other political odds far-fetched prospects include Donald Trump (100/1), and Michelle Obama (200/1), in addition to the aforementioned Clooney (200/1) and Eastwood (500/1). Actually, if Hillary were indeed elected, she would become the first first lady to go on to become president herself, which would in turn give hopes to Michelle Obama to accomplish the same feat, at a later date, of course. As far as parties go, Democrats are favorites and independents are underdogs.
· Democrats 8/11
· Republicans 5/4
· Independent 50/1
