Schwarzenegger Labeled One of "America's Best Leaders"

Gov. Schwarzenegger is featured on the cover of the new U.S. News and World Report magazine, which praises the former actor as one of "America's Best Leaders."

The November 19 issue features 18 of "America's Best Leaders," but chose the actor-turned- politician to grace the cover.

The magazine teamed up with the Center for Public Leadership at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government to help select the honorees. They define great leaders as someone who "motivates people to work collaboratively to accomplish great things."

The magazine article featured a diverse group of leaders, from Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to William Foege, an epidemiologist who has dedicated his career to eradicating disease.

10. Me too. He seems to have an interest in consensus building, of course..

he has a dem majority to deal with too.

I saw him at the Chargers' game after the Fires. At least HE knows how to dress (cool Cal casual) AND he knows how to speak to people and charm them (unlike the COMPLETE DOLT).

6. Even though I LOATHE the man's face and demeanor and acting

and party affiliation, I think maybe his wifey and the kids have been screaming at him 24/7 about the environment and he has decided to go along to get along. So he gets a score of 5 on a scale out of 10 from me so far.

We'll have to have Maria work him over good about that ... (verbally, of course, Agent Mike)(we'll send her polite letters requesting that she persuade about the validity of the bill).

18. Policy-wise, he's one of the least-awful Republicans out there, FWIW.

Still prefer any Democrat.

[kurth]

19. The leader elected to lead not to read

or to comprehend for that matter.
