There are a couple of candidates I would not like to see as president. Mostly because I don't like their politics, but also because people listen to what the president says.

Halla-Aho as president would be a bit of a disaster, at the very least from a PR standpoint but also because it'd embolden the extremist right wing he represents. I don't want the country's representative to be someone who has eg. publicly fantasized about shooting a gay person and who has some very interesting opinions about Breivik (and who Breivik has said is one of his political inspirations)
