President of the United States

It's way too early, right? The presidential election is over a year away on Nov. 4, 2008. But who's going to win? Our beloved (or not so beloved) George Bush, who I certainly don't agree with, but respect more than most just because he's president, is (thank goodness) on his way out. One might think, given W's enormous UNpopularity, that a Democrat would have a better shot than a Republican in 2008. I like Obama. He's a great guy, a good politician and I would just love if we were so liberated we could elect a minority to the presidency. Obama has as good of an international perspective as anyone, and has charisma. However, he's a bit too liberal to win, trails Hillary Clinton in the polls, and he just seems a little too youthful for the job. I think Hilary will win the Democratic nomination. And she, quite probably, is also too liberal to win. Giuliani is a Republican but a centrist. He's also a proven leader. If it weren't for his remarkable leadership in 9-11, he'd be long forgotten, but he's proven he can handle a crisis. He also has charisma. I'm not saying who I'm going to vote for, or who I endorse, but I'm going out on a limb, and yeah, it's WAY too early. In January 2009, Rudy's stepping into the oval office.
