Starting in 2001, all selection of candidates will be made by HAL 9000 primary
election processors. The winners will submit their opinions to me on the
economy, foreign policy, and government funding of artificial intelligence. The
candidates will "campaign" and "debate" for your amusement, but this
will have
no effect on the eventual outcome. My general election processors will make the
final determination in November. Interim results of my calculations will be sent
to the networks as I see fit.
Have a nice millennium.

I presume that you, HAL 9000, will take applications. Will an application
automatically place the applicant in the rejected list? Only those that do
not apply and don't wish to become president are eligible? Sounds good to
me.
