George W. Bush is 6 Lifepath. The Life Path 6 indicates that very prominent in his nature is a strong sense of responsibility. Although this wasn't demonstrated in the early part of his life, it has surely come to the front during the past four years. He is very idealistic and must feel useful to be happy. This is the Life Path related to leadership by example and assumption of responsibility, thus, it is his obligation to pick up the burden and always be ready to help. The Life Path 6 is one who is compelled to function with strength and compassion (compassionate conservative?), a sympathetic and kind person, most would agree. Most with Life Path 6 are the positive types who willingly carry far more than their fair share of the load and are always there when needed. He is very human and realistic about life, and he feels that the most important thing in his life is the home, family and nationalistic interests. This often at the expense of former allies around the world.
 
Owing to his 6 lifepath, President Bush in the eyes of some has shown a tendency to become overwhelmed by responsibilities and he has resisted this with his frequently vacations and often short workdays. This Lifepath can also produces tendencies towards exaggeration, over - expansiveness, and self-righteousness. Imposing views in a dogmatic manner can be an issue of concern. The natural burdens of this number are heavy and sometimes responsibility is abdicated by a 6, as appears to have been the case for the President in his early years. However, this rejection of responsibility nearly always creates feelings of guilt, explaining his amazing mid-life turnaround.

John F. Kerry is a 22 Lifepath. The Lifepath 22 is the higher of the two master number, and the most powerful of all the Lifepath numbers. As such, it is also the most difficult to live up to and fulfill. The 22 individual in endowed with many powers from within and they can reach any heights in life. A truly positive Life Path 22 person, equipped with a suitable education, can be a master builder in society. An idealistic nature is grounded in practical terms, allowing a leader like Senator Kerry to conceive grandiose, far-reaching schemes and carry them through to the end. Since he has shown a willing to work for it, one can expect this 22 to achieve enormous success, prestige, and fame.
 
Obviously, everyone with this Life Path does not become famous and suitable to become president of the U.S., but for his entire life it appears John Kerry has realized that he has the capacity to accomplish a great deal. Even as a very young man, Kerry demonstrated this inate quality of master builder.
 
Several Life Path number possess special spiritual understanding, however, the 22 is unique in that this path has great understanding, but also the ability to apply knowledge in a practical way. There is purpose in life and it is likely that he views his tasks and obligations in a very emotionally controlled and determined way. When you think about it, this Lifepath should probably always be a prerequisite for becoming our president.
