  <description>On November 4, 2008, Americans will elect the 44th President of the United States.  Who will it be?

In all likelihood, the winner is in this market.  If viable non-listed candidates emerge, they will be floated at $1.

**EDIT - I tried to float Bloomberg at $1, but it wouldn't let me. I hope that doesn't cause anyone too much trouble. Right now, he seems a little high to me.**

**Edit 2 - I just floated Mike Huckabee. Unfortunately, it's impossible to float a new stock any lower than the market average, which is currently third place.**

Candidates will not be closed out.  The market will sort out what value a candidate has, bottoming out at $0 as they are elimated.

The winner of the 2008 Presidential election will be closed out at $100.  All others will be closed out at $0.</description>
