Jeremy1 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Who on earth could possibly think this is a good idea?

ObiWanToby Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 He managers a lot of money, maybe he can get government spending under control. Plus I would support education reform, in making the United States a world leader in Science and Math. He is passionite about education, and I'm glad. I want the United States to be filled with smart educated people.

Brandon Live Veteran Posted December 1, 2006 Veteran Share Posted December 1, 2006 Hell no. He'd kill Open Source and slap DRM on everything. Are you people nuts?. Huh? Your DRM comment makes no sense. DRM is a technology, with very many important uses - especially when it comes to protecting confidential information be it business, government, or personal (medical records, for example). If you're talking about DRM on entertainment media - that's up to the content providers. I seriously believe that Bill would much rather have music and videos without DRM than with.

Ajapi Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 No, he doesn't. They were probably talking about the time when Microsoft bought $150 million dollars in Apple stocks to help them through their crisis.

Malisk Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Gates is a businessman, not a politician. I wouldn't pick him, although he's experienced in his field.

obsolete_power Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Bill Gates would be an excellent president. He's intelligent, highly ambitious (obviusoly), an innovator, great problem solver, strikes me as a calm and collected person, a very good leader that isn't infatuated by wealth, and a people person (Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation). If I were an American citizen I would vote for him :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/517497-get-on-the-gates-for-president-bandwagon/page/2/#findComment-588098282 Share on other sites More sharing options...
