Would you vote for Bill Gates for president?

He has donated for years. You make is sound like he inherited that money. And because he cares is one of the reasons why I would vote for him. However Ron Paul getting a lot of votes isn't going to help the country. Lets face it. Obama or McCain will be the next president regardless of who should be the president.

I agree, Ron Paul getting a lot of votes is not helping. This election has too much at stake and the world is too dangerous right now. I think we have to make sure our vote counts and doesn't just end up distorting the results of the election. It's more important than ever to vote for one of the two men who will be able to win. Maybe if things were going well and we weren't in war and we had to moderates with similar ideas running , then it might be OK to go for the underdog and see if hey, maybe he'd somehow pull it out. But in this scary time we're living in, I think that would not be responsible.

LOL The cream rises to the top. Actually if Bill Gates were president he would have to face boundaries and limitations. He can do more good for the country if he were not the president. But I think he would do a good job.

A nice unbiased response. He shaped the world in which we live. He was able to see the future and make decisions affecting it. He definitely has the skills to fix things. And if he messes something up he can just pay for his $12 billion mistake. Running a country is like running a business. No one can say that he is not qualified.

I am sure that Gates has his own version of "No Child Left Behind" considering that he is opening his own schools. I think it is a good concept. However education begins at home. If the parents do not show any desire at home then it is hard for the children. A lot of people blame the government. Well if you want to know, I blame the government too a certain degree. I sat through years of repeating useless information. The same books rehashed for the next year. IF I didn't have a desire to educate myself then I would be like the rest of them... blaming the government about my education. There are books, libraries and the internet. There is no one to blame other than the parent. I learned the basics in the public education system. It was because of my desire to learn that furthered my education. A lot of people who meet me ask what college did I attend. When I tell them that I learned it from my own free will, they normally say "I was going to say you don't learn that much in college." LOL So it doesn't matter where you go to school. It is the person who has to WANT to learn. People need to stop blaming the government. At one time everyone in the area used to walk to the one room school house. Their education was only as good as the person who was teaching. People should realize how good they have got it.

Well geeze there are a few things that I actually care about politically and all the rest are like well it doesn't really matter much. I think Gates would have a good education plan, and if he said I'll get rid of NCLB I'd vote for him heck I'll vote for just about anyone that says that I didn't mean to be so unbias I fully believe that someone with a business mind would do good run this country.
