Though I don't see all of them as President within the next 2-6 years, I do many as great candidates for vice President or strong Cabinet members, leading our country back to a forward-looking course.

I plan to remain undecided for many months, but do admit that I, a senior citizen, prefer someone younger than 50; even under 60 is pretty good. The vibrancy of a younger candidate cannot be touched by the current executive.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
