Listing of people considered either candidates or possible candidates:

• Barack Obama
• Hillary Clinton: much discussed, not officially running yet; hated by Republicans; David Brin says "No senators!"
• John Edwards: has formally announced candidacy
• John McCain launched presidential campaign on 2006-04-25
• Rudy Guiliani (is he running, or just campaigning for other Republicans?): current mayor of New York; says "If a Democrat is elected president in 2008, America will be at risk for another terrorist attack on the scale of Sept. 11, 2001.... Never ever again will this country ever be on defense waiting for (terrorists) to attack us if I have anything to say about it. And make no mistake, the Democrats want to put us back on defense!" (This statement is so full of... gaaah.)
