Plus the Cuckerberg jokes just write themselves.
also, the interest in Zuck is b/c he's doing things that look like somebody would do if he was running for President (538 methodology aside). He's visiting all 50 states this year, milking cows, talking to black people, and making sure all of this is publicized. He's not doing traditional political things (like politics breakfasts in New Hampshire) but I think there are reasons that doesn't make sense for him at this stage. he also has a weird clause re: his FB options that signaled he would leave the day to day of the company sometime in the near future,
you could hand wave these things away as "things he might do as CEO of a social networking company" but they weren't things he was doing before (when he was also CEO of said company).
