Steve Jobs possibly running for Governor of California???

Steve Jobs just might run for the Governor of California! Well maybe, but I think apple users should be able to cast there vote worldwide to elect him if he does run. Kidding of course. But it's quite interesting I wonder what the mac community thinks of this???

Arnold got quite fat after becoming governor probably because he didn't have time to work out as much anymore. So I doubt Steve could pull that off and run Apple at the same time.

Come on... Steve is already running 2 companies and battling cancer!

Do you think he really has the extra time (not to mention tolerance for concensus) to run this state?

Do you really think Steve would accept anything less powerful than an almighty all-powerful king/monarch role?

Do you really thing this state wants someone to "multitask" the Governors job?


Not going to happen!


Hell, I love Steve but wouldn't vote for him. I'd rather he keep his eye on Apple. That's where we need him. That's where he can make a contribution to the world and do good.

Surely we can find a more suitable Democrat than him?!?
