Who would be your fantasy President? |
|
(Living or Dead) Mine would be a wonderful combination of
Gore--environmental issues Edwards--poverty issues Dean--intelligence and wit Clark--military expertise Obama--charisma Carter--diplomacy
Wouldn't it be great if we could take the best of everyone and drop them into one candidate?

BTW, today is the anniversary of Pearl Harbor. Jeanette Rankin was the only person in the House AND the Senate to vote "no" on the War Resolution against Japan on December 8, 2006 when Roosevelt introduced it.

I might get rid of Clark, Obama and Edwards and substitute in Kerry, Feingold, Kucinich :). Kucinich for poverty, Kerry for cracking down on corruption doggedly.
Since, its just personal dream candidates, charisma (whatever that means) would ABSOLUTELY not be a factor for me.

This ticket would be dynamite on domestic issues of race, poverty, the environment, and civil liberties, as well as change course immediately in Iraq, and maybe on trade as well. Who knows, though? Sadly, we'll never get to find out.
