So if you could pick any celebrity alive or dead to be president who would you choose?
I’ve always thought Morgan Freeman would do a good job.
President Ripken.
I like the sound of that. Tony Gwynn could be V.P.
Think of how tough we would look to the Taliban is Clint Eastwood were president.
“Do you feel lucky, Osama?”
…and what if he had Anthony Hopkins as VP? Just roll ol’ Tony into the Peace Talks on a handtruck with a mask strapped to his head…
Oldy Olsen, no contest.
Slim Pickens
Two choices:
Joe Pesci
Rory Calhoun (cause he was always standing up and walking around on his hind legs, a prime requisite for president).
Jimmy Stewart. A genuine nice guy, a genuine war hero, and a genuinely great actor…unlike, uh, some other people who were up for the part.
Frank Zappa or Grace Slick would make great a President.
Elvis. Fat or skinny, but prefably fat elvis.
Christopher Walken. Of course, he’d probably creep the hell out of other heads of state.
There apparently is an actual movement to draft John Cusack to run for president.
Chris Rock or Bill Maher.
Mick Foley, definitely.
Michael J. Fox. He has experience- “Spin City” counts…sort of. He’s really level-headed, he’s short (like many leaders), and he’s just so adorable. I’d watch the State of the Union address just for him.
I guess you are talking about the USA; I’m not American so I don’t really have an opinion…… But I can’t help wondering if you can’t imagine any females?
Iceland was one of the first countries, if not the first to have a female president (Vidgdis Finnbogadottir) and believe me she had some balls!! Eh well she was one good official.

Don’t forget, guys, people not born in the USA (Michael J. Fox) can’t be President.
My vote goes to Abe Vigoda!
Conan O’Brien. Boy, would that be a twisted 4 years…
Susan Saranden. Man, she’d be a killer president. The combination of smarts and sexiness would be rocking. I can just see her taking out the competition with one mean glance. I seriously do not think anyone would fuck with her.
I agree. Interestingly, she’s one of the few celebrities I can think of who openly backed Nader for president, which says to me that she’s honest about her beliefs and willing to incur criticism from democratic-leaning Hollywood for doing so. And since I voted for Nader, I’d ostensibly agree with most of Susan Sarandon’s platform, were she to run.
