Good heavens, what movie could you possibly not be talking about? Obviously the fictional character Max Carnage was talking about was the title character from the “Howard the Duck” comic books … My, my, my, talk about vivid imaginations …
I haven’t seen “Dave” or its spiritual predecessor “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington” in years, but I could really use a good morale booster. Off to the video shop I go.
Merkin Muffley from “Dr. Strangelove” - oh, wait, he got us all blown up. Sorry.
Dr. Evil - all he wants is one million dollars, then he’ll leave us alone.
Close, but no cigar. You got to understand how the political system works.
Carrot for President.
Vetinari for Chief of Staff.
Zaphod Beeblebrox
Bender
Milhouse Van Houten
President Havelock Vetinari
Vice President Vimes
Secretary of State Carrot
Chief Justice Mustrum Ridcully
(I, of course, would be the most junior justice).
Darth Vader.
He would take care of those damn liberals. And probably the conservatives, too. And I don’t see independents living it up either. In fact he would enslave or kill pretty much everyone, so maybe I should pick someone else.
I know Sauron would led us into health and happiness.
Conan the King!
Lisa Simpson!
What, no Lex Luthor?
Jessie Custer
Obi-Wan Kenobi
[list][li]Jack Ryan - the Harrison Ford version, not the Aflac version or the one who took 7 of 9 to a sex club[/li][li]Jack McCoy from Law & Order - he’s fair, he’s passionate, and he understands expeditiousness[/li]Santa Claus - since he’s magical, he could wipe out the deficit, balance the budget, cut taxes, add services and probably create peace[list]
Gerald Tarrant. He’s a man of science and has experience with leadership under difficult situations. Plus, he’s a religious man and that plays well with the public. On the down side he sold himself to the collective evil of man kind, but honestly I think America is used to that in a president by now.
I’d also be interested in a Kodos/Kang ticket. Twice the death ray for half the slavery, if their plan works.
Since Vetinari has already been done to death, I’ll nominate Dogbert. As a member of DNRC, that means I get to pimp-smack non-DNRC Republicans with impunity.
Spider Jerusalem.
Buckaroo Banzai
Although the Hong Kong Cavaliers might make the Secret Service a bit jumpy
A FRENCHMAN???
As Commander in Chief???
BWAHAHAHAHA!
The smart money is backing Ming the Merciless.
Would that make Cohen the Barbarian SecDef?
With all the comic geeks on this board, I’m surprised no one’s mentioned Prez Rickard yet.
I don’t recall the character’s name, but Harrison Ford’s character from Air Force One. No president I’ve ever voted for or against gave me the impression that if he were within arm’s reach of a terrorist, he’d go ahead and punch the scum!
And Glenn Close’s character wouldn’t be a bad VP, either. Too bad they appointed Dean Stockwell’s guy, but nobody’s perfect.
