He heads a university, an international relief agency, a conservative legal center and the Christian Broadcasting Network. But at age 77, Pat Robertson is still not ready to disclose who will succeed him at any of those organizations.

Tally is in the area. Why doesn't he make a run for the job?

This is another thing that Dr. Falwell can be commended for. Even though he was asking for another 20 years or so, he knew that he could pass at anytime. So, he had his team set up in place so they could just take off running when needed.

This is foolish talk. Everyone around here knows that when Pat goes, it's Gordon's show (Gordon is his son). He's already the exec. producer of The 700 Club, hosts it once-a-week, and basically makes changes to thinks as he sees fit. I'm not sure why this is an issue.
