Bakari asked like 5 times "when has a powerful white man ever willingly given up power?"
Tim, the answer you should have given was George Washington. Obviously he didn't cede it to a black woman but he could have run a third time and probably remained president but he chose to go home.

There is also LBJ and Teddy Roosevelt who decided against running when they could have had their partyтАЩs nomination. James Polk is another example. And thatтАЩs just presidents. I mean itтАЩs not unheard of in politics that they retire instead of running until they lose.
