Presidential Palm-Reading

"An Eccentric Among Eccentrics"
"Clearly, anyone driven enough to become president is somewhat eccentric, but this, going by the angling out of the little finger, is an eccentric among eccentrics," says Gile. "He's a complicated soul, with a lot mental tension and passion. The long head line — the middle line in the palm — is unusually long, indicating he probably doesn't have an off-switch in his brain. He's a potential insomniac, very detail-oriented and can't stop thinking. The deep hallow in his palm says he hangs on to things and won't let go."
