Make a famous person President!

In My Humble Opinion
1

I was watching a special the other day on Ronald Reagan, which of course found a way to tie in Arnold Schwarzenegger and their lack of political experience prior to becoming governors of California. If they can do it, why can’t Paris Hilton and/or Oprah Winfrey?

So, with that being said…if you had to pick someone with zero political experience, but a famous face to be the next President of the United States, who would you elect?

Since this is my thread, I elect Brad Pitt. He is famous, good-looking, and already has a great possible First Lady.

Your turn (links not necessary)!

2

Willie Nelson.

3

Well, at least I would be able to smoke pot.

4

If we’re talking about people who are famous for things other than politics (i.e. no Stephen Colbert or Sean Hannity nominations)…maybe Ted Nugent?

5

And now I could legally hunt black bears!

6

Hell, if we made the guy from Montgomery Gentry president, you could shoot 'em while they were tethered in your backyard! :wink: :mad:

7

He’s not a politician per se, but Ted’s probably as famous for his politics now as he is for his music. He’s made a few hints about running for governor of Michigan.

8

Tommy Chong, with VP Jeff Spicoli

9

Would they run against Willie Nelson? I think you and pravnik need to have a little chit-chat.

10

If he wins, I’m not going back to michigan.

How about Jenna jameson? I don’t know how smart she is or how well spoken she is or, frankly, if she can even get up off her back (not that that’s a requirement to be president) but I’m damn sure she’d have the greatest sex scandals in the history of politics.

11

Nah, I’m not a pot kinda guy. To me, he’s just Willie Nelson, Texas music legend and national treasure. :slight_smile:

12

How about Pres Willie, VP Chong, and Sec of Education Spicoli?

13

Michael Moore, just to give the nation’s legion of Bush apologists a well-deserved aneuryism. :wink:

14

R. Crumb for President, Vincent Gallo for Vice President.

15

Robin Williams … say that might be an idea for a movie … but not a good one

16

I’d go with Morgan Freeman

He has that presidential aura, rather than being a politician

Declan

17

I say we put Morgan Freeman, Bill Pullman, and Michael Douglas in a “fictional-President Deathmatch” and let the winner be POTUS for real.

Chris Rock and Robin Williams could fight over VPhood.

18

Winner: Bill Pullman.

He definitely is more of a killer than the other two.

19

Steve Jobs. Or Bill Gates.

Jobs would sure make it an easier country to live in…but Gates’d probably be able to add some more states to the union. (Which would solve the whole illegal Mexican immigration issue…no border, no problem.)

20

He would be perfect since he already knows how to distort facts for his own purposes.
