1. Time to stop the parade
Josh   (02.19.14)
of wannabees.
2. Another year
Ros ,   Tel Aviv   (02.19.14)
For the country - absolutely! we need many more years with Shimon Peres as President - he is a wonderful ambassador!
3. Get rid of Peres & the presidency.
Chaim ,   Israel   (02.19.14)
Peres is a walking disaster who hurts Israel almost every time he speaks. His successor is likely to be another mindless leftist incompetent. Get rid of Peres and the presidency. Give taxpayers a break. Israel has no need of them.
4. The time has come for a refendum
Sagi   (02.19.14)
The people should be asked what kind of state do they want. President yes or no. If so how should he/she be elected. Constitution yes or no. Separation of state and religion y/n Political and electoral system. Things have got to change in this country and the people should decide how and when.
5. Could some enterprising citizen
Raptor   (02.19.14)
please initiate a signed petition to be handed in to Mr. Bibi so that the people's will can be taken into account and the farce called "President" can be stopped in its tracks. By farce I mean the procedure and the office, both are farcical, both are insulting and both are superfluous.
6. Natan Sharansky should be the next President
Vlad   (02.19.14)
7. Why is there a need for any President?
Jayjay ,   Israel   (02.19.14)
If the people could of voted in the past, no way would the traitor peres have gotten that position. He should be in prison.
8. He's Doing It To Screw Rivlin, Who Is The Frontrunner
Yishai Kohen ,   YeShA, Israel   (02.19.14)
Their feud is well-known.
9. Excellent
Mike ,   Tel Aviv   (02.19.14)
Excellent idea, albeit from the wrong motives. If the public get to elect the president they will show all those horrible scheming politicians "from where the fish is peeing" and elect a normal worthy candidate like Schectman.
10. Hell no! Bring back Katsav instead
(02.19.14)
11. May help till Senate goes to GoP November
(02.19.14)
12. peres bad enough but bibi is worse
marcel   (02.19.14)
likud should throw bibi out at the first chance. Danon shoujld convene the likud court and cut off bibi's ability to make concessions. Levin with danon, hotovly, erdan, katz, feiglin, and others should revolt and remove bibi at the first legitimate opportunity as he is about to freeze settlements and allow foreign troop s to police the jordan border. get rid of him,.
13. The position could be better filled...
Gideon Reader   (02.19.14)
...by placing an ad in the classifieds or thru a head hunter service. Better creds and a chance to avoid embarassment.
14. get rid of peres
alexi   (02.19.14)
bibi, stop playing bloody games with your coalition and now president.he has done enough harm. let h im go and hopefully landau gets in.Your political calculations just cause israel bloody trouble. and say no to kerry for bloody sake instead of acting like an olmert and livni weakling.

Philip ,   Afula, Israel   (02.19.14)
Exactly so, fully agree.
16. About time ! A president for the people chosen by the people
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (02.19.14)
17. Sagi #4 - still, we are in better shape than :-
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (02.19.14)
Egypt - Ukraine - Syria - etc. Actually I think we are in better shape than USA, at the moment.
18. Yes to refrendum
Israeli 2   (02.19.14)
However, must include the question: 1) Will Israel become a Torah state with Torah rules from א to ת ? YES or no?
19. American "separation of powers", President, Congress, Courts
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (02.19.14)
