Just what everybody is demanding.
A Wall Street Multi-Billionaire President.

He's a self made man, starting off as a computer programmer working
with an old friend of mine at Merrill Lynch. He devised an electronic
system for trading and quoting bonds which was vastly superior to
anything else at the time. Merrill gave him the right to sell the
system to others and he turned that into a financial empire.

Sounds like intelligence and leadership ability to me.

I agree. And to tell the truth, that's a positive. I'd like to see a
pure business man take over for a while.

However, based on his nanny type personality, I'm not sure he's any
different from anybody else running.

Oddly, you know who I think would make a great President but he'd
never in a hundred years get elected.

Barney Frank.

Seriously.
