I know this counts for nothing - but my half completed list looks like this:
1) Paris Hilton - choosing a new young and foolish celebrity. 2) Queen Elizabeth II - My grandmother hopes she'll live long enough to pass the crown over her son straight to William - he's old enough now and out of college... 3) Willem Lange - VPR commentator who does a lot of stuff but sounds so old. I love his commentary, I have to admit I've worried about not hearing him when he dies. He'll probably drop a tree on his head while cutting firewood or something. 4) Michael Gambon - Plays Albus Dumbledore in the movies - the first time I saw him playing the part I thought "he's too old, he'll die before they're done with the series" if it happens there will be rumors of the position being cursed! 5) Benazir Bhutto - how many times have attempts to kill her already been made? 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) 11) 12) 13) Alt)
ideas: famous US person evil country leader-ish actors? old news anchor? musician? - ozzie - maybe too clean now? guns n' roses guy?See how I have a

Dmitry Medvedev is a good choice, though I think you might be a year early. Putin can't run for prez again due to term limits, but if he become Prime Minister next election, he can regain the presidency if the sitting president dies. I don't think they'd actually assume their new offices till '09 though.
I'm thinking someone who knows they can't get to Putin will take out his successor after he's been nominated but before he can be elected to try and prevent Putin from getting to Prime minister.
My problem with this list was I had a handful of well thought out choices and then I was reluctant to randomly guess other people - but that's what I ended up doing for the second half anyway.
