For Christ's sake, don't name him "Jesus"!!! (pun intended)

I used to work at a Mexican restaurant, and half the employees there were named Jesus. It's been done to death. Also, "Mohammed" seems too common, if I can judge by my cab rides. I was thinking maybe "Hillel", but we don't want to overdo the Jewish thing with all these problems in Israel... it might rub off on our candidate.

What about "Bob"?
It's a nice, easy to remember name, and it is kind of catchy to say "Bob bless you!" when somebody sneezes.

So, can this "Bob" do any miracles? What about changing water into a carbonated beverage? Probably Coke or Pepsi if we want to get good sponsorship, and we could tap into the new "Pepsi Blue" or "Vanilla Coke" craze to appeal to the younger adherents. And what about healing? Not much leprosy around nowadays, but if he could cure herpes, it would be a relief to many Americans.

Anxiously awaiting your reply, (Bobspeed... heh, heh)
