Here’s an update as well as my periodic reminder about the political figures reportedly looking into the possible position of America’s next president. Also, please note that some of those listed are still in an "exploratory" stage and have not made official announcements, to-date, about running for the presidency.
Also, as I stated in previous posts, this is my attempt to assist in the process of more "informed voting" choices.
So, if you choose, you can do your own Internet research and/or other forms of research on each of those individuals listed. And remember, it would also come in handy if you do a bit of research on the varying “issues” plaguing America, such as Iraq/troops situation, education, healthcare, and rates of unemployment, etc.
(THE LIST – Alphabetically by individual’s last name)
Democrats:
Joseph R. Biden Jr., Delaware senator
Chris Dodd, Connecticut senator
John Edwards, former North Carolina senator
Mike Gravel, former Alaska senator
Dennis Kucinich, Ohio congressman
Barack Obama, Illinois senator

Again, please allow the ISSUES to take precedence over personality. Personality, or charisma, will hopefully be part of a particular candidate’s overall package.

P.S. It's also not too early to register to vote!
