    Read the first letter of each line and put them together - reminder - That was in schoolbooks in Pakistan ;) ;) :D

    The Leader

    Patient and steady with all he must bear,

    Ready to meet every challenge with care,

    Easy in manner, yet solid as steel,

    Strong in his faith, refreshingly real.

    Isn't afraid to propose what is bold,

    Doesn't conform to the usual mould,

    Eyes that have foresight, for hindsight won't do,

    Never backs down when he sees what is true,

    Tells it all straight, and means it all too.

    Going forward and knowing he's right,

    Even when doubted for why he would fight,

    Over and over he makes his case clear,

    Reaching to touch the ones who won't hear.

    Growing in strength he won't be unnerved,

    Ever assuring he'll stand by his word.

    Wanting the world to join his firm stand,

    Bracing for war, but praying for peace,

    Using his power so evil will cease,

    So much a leader and worthy of trust,

    Here stands a man who will do what he must.

    President Bush, most definitely. I wish Regan was on there, though...

    So far it's 2 with Caesar to 3 with Bush.

    W00t.

    I voted Bush.

    The question is "best leader" , he's been really good at leading people - if nothing else.

    Nah, but I forgot Queen Elisabeth and Ivan the Terrible. I want to make sure that Bush wins over Hitler, that's all :D

    That's the best you could do latehorn? You've now admitted the only way bush can look good is when he's being compared to the worst maniac's in history.
