Why Tim Tebow? Well, we frequently heard it said that the United States of America is one nation, indivisible, under God. It even says so in the Pledge of Allegiance. The United States is a Christian country, and outside of religious leaders, very few people take their Christianity as seriously as Tim Tebow. He became famous for wearing religious messages on his eye-black during his football days, and also for his distinctive pose when kneeling to pray. That was frequently referred to as 'Tebowing' and was briefly a viral internet sensation.
Tebow is also a man of considerable achievement. Like Michael Jordan, he's played two completely different sports professionally - football and baseball. Multi-talented, committed to whatever task he's given and possessing conviction in his faith, Tebow seems to have all the qualities needed of a leader. He's a little young at 31, though.
