Personally I don't think there is a politian that would make a good president. I think what you need is a good business man, someone who knows how money works. But as soon as you start running a country like a bussiness you are going to piss alot of people off, cause in business there are no "free rides" A LOT of spending would be cut.

This sounds great in theory, but in reality most "good businessmen" have run into great difficulty in the political realm. It would take a wholesale change in our political culture for such an individual to be successful. For better or for worse, politics is a game and you need to know how to play it to survive and thrive at the national level. That is why people like Karl Rove and Dick Morris exsist.
