Spoiler : Jacob

[uklostie]

I've gone with Bram. I think there is actually a bit of a resemblance between Jacob and Bram

[BobW]

Desmond is "miraculously special" and "exempt from the rules" so I'd vote for him.

[Ricardus Alpert]

Either Richard or Desmond is my bet.

[jbryan1984]

Desmond gets my vote.

[ben_linus]

Benjamin was a child of the biblical Jacob, but he seems doubtful because we know his father. That is unless Jacob got it on with Emily Linus haha.

I think its Desmond or Ilana, maybe Richard but if it is him then I doubt he realises Jacob is his father. That poll has Locke as the favourite, which makes no sense considering it would ruin the whole Locke/Cooper storyline.

[Ike23]

I think it's Richard. That could explain why Jacob doesn't let him age and why he has such a special position.

[ben_linus]

Jacob has knowledge of future events, Desmond has knowledge of future events. My moneys on Des, although I wish it was Ben.

[MPVLOST]

My money is on Desmond. We know very little about his family, so it could fit easily. Plus there's Hawking telling him that "the island isn't done with him".

[Ricardus Alpert]

I didn't really consider Ben as posibility until I remembered Benjamin was the youngest son of the bibical Jacob. It would make a lot of sense, especially since Ben did view Jacob as somewhat of a father figure, and Michael Emerson said it relates to the whole theme of "Bad Fathers" on the show. It would also be a way to show Jacob did care for Ben.

(Now I'm torn between Ben, Richard and Desmond. )

[Big Hurt]

I'd go with Richard. Neither has aged past a certain age. That's gotta be hereditary.
