Counterpoint: Pick a FICTIONAL character to be President.

Jack Bauer. He’s resourceful, he’s always right and he never dies. He kills terrorists like it’s going out of style.

The character played by Samuel L. Jackson in Snakes on a Plane. Imagine the endless political capital of the expression “I’ve had it with these MF ____ on this MF ____!”

Why Dr. Wilbur Daffodil-11 Swain, of course!

I can’t wait for my new name!

:mad:

You seem to be implying that the patron of Odysseus is NOT real. I’m sure that was an accident.

Kal-El.

If Kal-El were real, wouldn’t you rather he was doing something more…I dunno…utilitory of his skill-set?

I think the Flying Spagetti Monster would be an entertaining choice.

No, just that there’s been plenty of fiction written about her.

Ron Swanson

If not him, then John Galt or Rorshach.

Seriously, people, you are missing all the good answers.

Pedro

Kodos

David Palmer

No, then you’d have to deal with that whole “Seperation of church and State” thing , I’d like to see The Brain as president, with V.P. Pinky, or barring that, Cthulu, after all, why vote for a Lesser Evil…

I get to be eaten first, though :wink:

Yeah, plus now he wouldn’t have to convince some other person as president to go along with all those immunity deals. Not to mention he wouldn’t have to take himself down after he turns out to be corrupt. Or would he…

Calvin/Hobbes '12

I’ve been waiting for years to answer this question.

Ironside (Raymond Burr)

He could have kicked some international butt!

One time I even dreamed that he was President.

I can’t believe I’m the first.

Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho!

Or Atticus.

God damn you Equip! Damn you to Hell!

No one else’s first thought was Zaphod Beeblebrox?

Winner-winner, chicken dinner.

2nd place.

In third is my choice, Rooster Cogburn.

Honorable Mention.

:smiley:

Frenchy the Evil Clown! Grab yuh ankles, America!

No. If we are going to use that Universe… DEATH has to be president. He’s smart, always does what needs to be done, and yet he stays humble.

That guy has saved the world numerous times, and his daughter’s pretty damn hot so we get to look at her in the magazines.

I can’t believe I forgot Opus ‘n’ Bill.
