2. just one that don't lie so much will be a good start
every one running is partisan so the hope that a uniter would bring us is not going to happen.

7. I'm not willing to sacrifice any one for the other
I think they need to be able to do it all - with the help of a good solid VP and cabinet.

9. Ok, O'll bite .. I see a category for Barak. Where does HRC fit among the other options?
I can't seem to find a profile for her in the other poll choices.

14. A Visionary. . .
because the person who isn't afraid of the political risks involved may be able to bring the country together through the reform they bring. If so, the visionary is also the Natural Healer. They must also be the Great Politician because they aren't afraid to go at the other side in order to push for the reform they seek.

The Visionary could also be the other three things because someone who is ready for reform, I would hope, understands what reforms this country needs. This would include the role of the War President, the Skillful Diplomat and the Economic Wizard.

19. there is a minor flaw with your polling categories
only one of them ends with "unlike Bush" all of them should!

20. It appears that "Must like pork rinds" is not one of the choices...
Edited on Thu Sep-27-07 09:33 PM by Old Crusoe
Thank god.

I like several of your poll choices, actually, parts of most.

I would like a president to reflect many of those strengths and also one who can TALK.

I am so sick of listening to George W. Bush yap and sqawk and whine and wheeze and stutter that I could just puke. The second he comes on the NPR news, for example, I lunge for the dashboard to switch to some music.

I can't stand to look at him or listen to him.

I want a president who stops me in my tracks and whose remarks require my attention.
