Ayman Nour


My name is Ayman Nour. I am Egyptian. I am 50 years old and I am married. I am a member of Parliament.
I went to prison for a few years. I did not steal money. I did not kill anyone. I went to prison because I wanted to become president of Egypt.
In Egypt we have an old president. His name is Hosny Moubarak. He has been president for 30 years and he does not want to go. He wants his son to be the next president.
Millions of people in Egypt don't want his son to be the next president but his father control every thing in the country. President Moubarak is a very good friend of America. They like him very much.
I want to become president because I want to help the people. I want to build new schools. I want people to find jobs. I want everyone to have a better life.
I travel a lot inside Egypt and people like me. I can't travel overseas because the police don't want me to leave Egypt. They want to arrest me again and teach me a lesson. They don't want me to become the next president of Egypt.
