If you could switch lives with a person for a week, who would it be and why? The only people that I would like to be are former President Barack Obama and former president of South Africa Nelson Mandela. I know that I can not be Jesus Christ, but I need Him right now.  I know that I can not tell God and Jesus Christ what their do, but I can make a request for both of them to officially govern Planet Earth because mankind is doing a lousy job of governing the nations of the world. This is my request for God and Jesus Christ to please come right now and govern Planet Earth.
