Can an object have a pointer to a protocol?

No, but an object can have a pointer to an object that is ambiguously typed ("id") but is expected to comply with a protocol. See AppKit's NSMenu.h header for an example.

Why not? There is a Protocol class (/usr/include/objc/Protocol.h). Could some of the runtime wranglers shed some light on this?
