President-elect Obama appears strikingly open to a team of rivals around him &mdash; maybe. Hillary Clinton is clearly a powerhouse. But is the senator the right rival, the right powerhouse for this job?

The global stakes are high. Opinions are all over the map.

      <title>West Philly's X-Kids</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Who's going to design the car of the future? The one that's affordable, that plugs in, charges up, goes from zero to sixty in under five seconds and gets 100 miles per gallon? They're working on it in Detroit, but who knows if the U.S. auto industry will die before the roll out?

So how about a plucky group of inner city kids from West Philadelphia led by a visionary teacher?

They come from a world of crack houses and gang wars, but they're winning awards for cutting-edge green auto design.

This hour, On Point: from Philly's mean streets 
&mdash;inspiration, hope, and maybe, the cars of the future.
