MIKE HUCKABEE
He is crossed by PRESIDENT in the open text. Significant?
PRESIDENT in the open text directly crosses MIKE HUCKABEE (at the 5th lowest ELS of this transliteration) in a 32-letter matrix based on wrapped text where software like CodeFinder makes more than one pass through Torah. It looks impressive, but the same was true for McCain, and he lost the election in 2008.
Part of the problem with using matrices like this is that if the future is fixed, that would imply no free will (see my page on Talmud and Names). But there is another problem – even if the Code was meant to be predictive. Scientists now postulate the existence of parallel universes, with a possible ever increasing number of universes as number of choices and potential outcomes increase. If these exist, the code may show alternate futures simply because it was designed to show alternate universes. Understanding the Code (if it is real) then rests on knowing which universe you exist in; however, before getting too spun up based a simple matrix like this, remember that when the 5th lowest ELS of John McCain and President were this close, the statistical significance was just .0356 or about 1 chance in 28.

And my future choice? As of August 18, 2009, I'd vote for Governor Huckabee (despite his membership in the Council on Foreign Relations). He comes across very well on his Fox News TV show, and he supports biblical ideas about Israel.
