The 2008 presidential election is more than a year away, but it’s not too early to make predictions. Who will be the next president? I’m not asking for your preference; I’m asking for your prediction. Those who predict correctly will have bragging rights come election day 2008. Those who mess up will be subject to merciless, unrelenting ridicule.

Addendum: Please don’t ask for my prediction. I, qua God, am omniscient, so I already know the identity of the next president, just as I know the identity of the first president. I want to see how well you mere mortals do.
