That is what each of the people running for the president wants to be.On the Democratic side,you have president Obama expected to get his party's nomination1.On the Republican side,there're more than a half dozen people out on a campaign trail.Right now,they're working to stand out in their crowd.So they travel from state to state,and meet voters and they participate in debates.CNN is hosting 2 of those this month.When the calendar turns to 2012, that's when those primary caucuses2 start happening.Voters will cast their ballots3 for individuals.And you will see this field of candidates get smaller until one of them eventually becomes the official nominee4 ,the national convention in late August.

The new Pentagon strategy focuses on defending military assistant,crum theft and denial or disruption of service.Bu cyberspace has a particular attraction for attackers.
It would also, there's a fairly low cost of entering in this business,they don't have to have a massive military industrial complex.They actually build an office of
