Barack Obama as project manager

If you have an opening for project manager or development manager who would you hire, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, or John McCain? The three are now competing for one big opening, the president of the United States.
If you were to choose between the three based on, character, experience, leadership style, education, futuristic outlook and the ability to communicate, who would you hire?

Every one in America is talking about the need for a change; who is among the three candidates is ready for a change, which, among the three, actually has the personality and character to call for a real change? Who among the three is from the old guards and who is a fresh blood?

When we pick our candidate, we must keep our political affiliations, our religious believes and our personal biases aside, we must choose based on qualifications and the ability to perform.

Every nation and every society have its share of biases and discrimination based on race and religion, but the great thing about America is that these two factors are kept in check; it believed that Abraham Lincoln would hire his fierce political opponents if he would find him qualified for the job.

I am not a political writer, nor am a political analyst; I am looking at the three candidates from the point view of quality management. At the end we look for our elected officials to improve our lives and give us the best service.
We can go into great length to discuss the three candidates qualifications to be great managers (this could be a good subject for another article), but so far I tend to incline towards Barack Obama. The man is young with no so much political overhead that will hunt his presidency. In his speeches he uses the time to talk about change, which what America really needs, he doesn’t waste time attacking his opponents. He is talking to everyone in America, including the young Americans, which are the future of the country. As a hiring manager in a company looking for a new direction, you don’t need a manager with old tactics, you don’t need a manager who spends his time talking about the shortcoming of his peers and you need a manager who is able to communicate to everybody in the company.
