Jimmy Cagney! There’s no war he couldn’t win, fairly; no enemy he couldn’t charm or threaten to our side–plus, he could get up on the table and do a military tap number!
And his first lady, Betty Grable, would win over everyone with her sunny smile, cheerful demenour, long legs and dancing skills.
The First Kiddies, Margaret O’Brien and solemn little Baby Leroy, would assist.
Certainly Whitehouse Spokesman Edward Everett Horton would get Pres. Cagney’s point across to reporters Ros Russell and Cary Grant.
I’m not a Yank, but would Jimmy Stewart have been marvelous?
Wouldn’t. Damn it.
Too Funny: When reading the thread title, I immediately thought “Christopher Walken”, having absolutely No Idea that there was a campaign afoot, and haven’t even seen any of his movies in a decade. Honest, it was just a gut reaction. Must be the intense eyes. Would love to see intense eyes for four years, sure beats the beady blanks of the current Potus.
I’ll offer up Willem Dafoe as the next contender, running with fine VP John Lurie. They could do the State of the Union in the format of their great “Fishin’ With John” episode. Muy bonito.
Bruce Campbell for President. Hail to the Chief, baby.
Groucho Marx, of course. Restricted to today’s stars, I’d enjoy voting for John Goodman.
Bill Maher for President.
Whoopi Goldberg as his VP.
Michael Moore, just for the hilarity that’s sure to ensue from his naysayers. 
Anyone but Arnold.
Samuel L. Jackson, of course. Who’d fuck with him?
I second Sam Jackson. He would step up and kick people in the ass.
True, he’s 147 years old, and he’s dead. But aside from that…right on. Remember when Iraq’s vice-president said that Saddam and Bush could fight a duel to settle their differences? Hell, Teddy would have done it, and he would have won. 
After him…probably Jackson.
Michael, Tito or Jermaine?
Haven’t we already learned our lesson from the first actor we had as President?!
Just kidding. 
I could certainly go for a Samuel L. Jackson presidency.
Chuck Heston IS my president!
But only if he played the elderly, fat Elvis with penis cancer. And of course, JFK would be VP.
My vote would go to Bill Maher.
Clint Eastwood.
Groucho.
Alive, how about a Big Flaming Queer, like Elton John ( ok, he’s not american, but the white house would look less uptight.)
Groucho Marx or Bruce Campbell.
