Regarding the Egyptian presidential elections that will be held next year, there is Dr. Mohamed ElBaradei, who is now famous in the media arena for his message of change. He is currently the only one on the scene, but the Egyptian constitution, after the amendment of Articles 76 and 77, has limited the chances for nomination, because the ruling party dominated the most seats in the parliament. In case ElBaradei succeeds in changing the constitution, I will vote for him, as he might be the instrument of change to which every free Egyptian aspires. Regarding my own dream, I wish that Amr Moussa or Kamal al-Janzouri had become president of Egypt, but unfortunately, they were both expelled from the political scene.
