President Gates or President Jobs ?
Just for fun..
List your reasons for voting for one or the other. ( I will be so bold as to assume Gates will run on a Republican ticket, while Jobs will run with the Democrats).
So given that scenario, who would win at the polling booth....?
Ps : to anyone who wants to poo poo this idea...its just fun..and besides someone out there must have voted for Arnie & that is pretty unreal.
So this has got as good a chance as anything else in American politics...
Mods : Feel free to move this post if you think it fits better in AO..I just wasn't too sure..so I put it here.

In the Gates world, any hiccough in one industry the will crash the whole economy,
not so much a presidential seal as a blue screen of death...
while in the Jobs world, the Presidential desk will have a "Force Quit" option per industrial process.
The Gates Presidency might name Steve Ballmer to State or Defense. Monkeyboy as diplomat?
The Jobs Presidency might name Phil Shiller as UN Ambassador. hmmmm...
Jonathan Ive might redesign Air Force One/Military (speed holes or mesh not good for subs).
The Gates universe would leave all design tasks to Gateway or Dell. Plastic shares soar.
The Jobs nation would autodetect/discover/configure relations with compatible countries.
The Gates nation would require you to install drivers and translators first, but...
adding relations with one country might unexpectedly bork stable relations with existing ones

That's the metphor at work.
I actually think that both Bill and Steve are dems. . . At least Steve isn't the generic, boring kind of dem.

People with the stock options are getting richer; the permanent temps get shafted.
