Wow. This is a deep topic. While I think the discussions around DNA testing will start raging in the next 12 months, for sure there will be a question of whether presidential candidates should have a DNA test as part of the public health report.
Ho-boy, this is getting interesting.

The next presidential candidates will face an electorate that is radically more conversant in and curious about DNA than ever before. We should reasonably expect that the presidential election of 2012 will include, for the first time, requests for candidates to make their genetic information part of the public record.
