My candidates for the President of Israel....

Hi All,

Via the Jerusalem Post- Israel's Knesset ( Parliament) is in the process of electing a new President

"Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein announced on Monday that the elections for president will be held on June 10.In his meetings with candidates over the past week, Edelstein told them the race would be held on a Tuesday or Wednesday in mid-June, which they took to mean June 17 or 18. Candidates asked for the race to be held as late as possible to give them more time to receive endorsements from MKs.By law, the Knesset speaker has to announce the date at least three weeks before the race. Candidates need to announce their candidacy and submit the signatures of 10 MKs who support them two weeks before the race. MKs can sign for only one candidate."

So  here are my own choices for the next President of Israel  -

This is just a bit of fun  & speculation on my part -

1. Natalie Portman
