Brantford, Ontario -- A Canadian man who analyzes people's personalities based on the shape of their hands is revealing his insights into the political movers and shakers of today.

Gerald E. Picard uses his so-called "handology" research to reveal unseen character traits. For instance, he says John Kerry's long thumb phalange shows he's obstinate, tyrannical and will fly into a temper if crossed.

He says Condoleezza Rice's high-set thumb shows she's bright and shrewd in an animal way and dislikes taking orders.

Meanwhile, Picard's analysis of Arnold Schwarzenegger's digits indicates the California governor is a spendthrift who is also very good at adapting to changing circumstances.

Hillary Clinton's first finger is higher than her third, which means she's an absolute tyrant who has a high sex drive and hates losing.

Finally, Fidel Castro's pointed thumb shows he's impressionable, selfish and weak-willed.
