Meet the Leaders Everyone seems to be talking about the 2011 presidential elections — everyone, that is, except those who might actually run. While the popular vote is calling for a popular candidate, the Constitution limits eligibility for the high office to leaders from the nation’s most viable political parties. In the run-up to the nation’s second multi-candidate presidential race, Egypt Today talks to the parties most likely to field contenders. On the streets of the digital nation, the 2011 presidential elections are already being hotly contested. Local and international news sites and blogs are buzzing with speculation about who will throw their hats into the ring. Would-be candidate websites — none of which are actually affiliated with or authorized by the person being endorsed — have sprung up.
