Poll question: Should I run for President of Iraq?
I am currently assessing the feasability of a run for President of Iraq, and I would like your opinions.

The Iraqi people are crying out for a leader. I think a fair-skinned American Protestant from the South is just the kind of leader who could unite the Iraqi people and bring stability to the nation as a whole.

What do you think?

1. Tell them that the 1st thing you'll do as their leader is get rid of the
troops there from the US....

I mean, if you become the rightfully elected leader, you should have that right, I assume?

2. Oh yes. The Iraqi government can ask the troops to leave at any time,
which is why Allawi will win in a completely legitimate landslide. ;)

3. If you're suicidal, sure.
It's more spectacular than stepping in front of a bus.

6. Everyone else is, why not?
What are they up to now, something like 150 candidates?

8. Including Iraqi action star Achmed al-Schwarzenegger,
who is the odds-on favorite.

7. Do you have a dog in that fight?
If not, I'd refrain displaying too much enthusiasm or ambition at the thought of Iraqi Presidential ambitions.
