The 2008 elections are on there way and the candidates are beginning to campaign. When the candidates speak, it's important that they know what to and what not to do with their hands. Some candidates point with their index finger. Bill Clinton for example made the letter A in sign language then turned so the thumb was on top and would wave his hand on the left side, then the right side and settled in the center with the thumb point. Hitler had his entire right arm extended. That one's pretty much off limits to American candidates...same with the mustache.
So, here's the contest: Either pick a hand guesture that will be most popular regardless of candidate or if you're feeling really ambitious you can pick what candidate is prone to do which guesture.
Mine...Barak Obama will have the thumb and index signal. When he pounds on his podium he'll do so with his pointer and thumb extended over a fist. He wont point it directly at anything. It will often look like he's measuring something or in honor of Seinfeld, squishing someone's head.

the thumb index seems to be a bush fav so i think the Obama campagn needs to urge BO away from that.
given that he is a bit of an "insurgent" candidate - not being too long in DC to be tainted and all that - he should adopt my personal fav
the half victory sign.
pretty much it is true that the first candidate to flip the bird on TV will get my vote. really i think that any of these deuches who is the first to use the finger on TV will get the entire MTV vote.
just imagine the talking heads and pundits after the election talking about the finger vote - much as they did the Value voter (what ever the fuck that is) post last election.
