Info: “Former Virginia Governor Mark Warner, who ended his term in January as one of the most popular governors in Virginia history, is drawing increasing speculation as a potential Democratic candidate for President in 2008. He was described recently in The New York Times Magazine as “the bright new star in the constellation of would-be candidates” for president. A native of Indiana, Warner was a leading figure in the telecommunications industry in the 1980s and co-founded Nextel Communications. He began his political career in 1993 as chairman of the Democratic Party of Virginia and was elected governor in 2001. He was recognized by Time magazine as one of the “5 Best Governors” in 2005, and by Governing magazine as one of its “Public Officials of the Year” in 2004.”
