Crispin Glover.
Harrison Ford did so well as President in “Air Force One,” I’d consider him for the actual job. I understand he’s center-left in his politics - yes?
Danny Devito.
And immediately after 9/11 he went back to New York to volunteer his services.
Eastwood.
Imagine as he calls up the leader of North Korea …
Another good choice would be Gary Sinise.
No votes for President Tom Cruise and first lady Katie Holmes?
::jumps up and down on Oval Office sofa:: “I LOVE THIS JOB!!!”
Hey, why not? He’s been both Harry Truman and George Wallace, so I think he’d appeal to both the left and right. And his service record as Lt. Dan is beyond question.
Dude, I was just about to say that. Hail to Palmer, baby!
My vote would personally be for Patrick Stewart. With the combined powers of Picard and Professor X, the U.S.'d be unstoppable! (Unfortunately, I think he’s British, which kind of rules him out. woeful sigh My vote goes to Bruce Campbell or Jon Stewart, then.)
Hmm. I dunno. Not to hijack the thread to a discussion of “24,” but it seemed like he rarely knew what was going on, couldn’t control his evil, scheming First Lady at all (granted, they were separated at the time) and was temporarily deposed by his Cabinet under the 25th Amendment when they thought he was wussing out and wouldn’t bomb the bad guys.
Gary Sinise is a remarkable guy in real life.
He cofounded a charity that so far has shipped 150 tons of school supplies to Iraq to help restock schools there. He is also a big supporter of the troops themselves. Check the USO tour schedule sometime, and see how often the Lt. Dan Band plays overseas.
Max Cleland thought the same thing…
Yeah, I’d heard about that…that’s why I mentioned him.
Yeah, but Gen. Jimmy Stewart’s service record was REAL. A bit conservative for my tastes but an honorable man.
With Katee Sackhoff as VP.
She’d be the best Vice-President in the fleet.
Failing that, how about Wayland Flowers and Madame?
Then we could have an actual puppet government.
Well, if we’re going to go that route, I’d prefer a Yoda/Kermit ticket so we could have an actual muppet government.
As the Green Party’s candidates, of course.
Martin Sheen, of course.
I remember seeing this nut job’s van driving around Bangor Maine. It was all decked out with copies of his “evidence” and bif letters on the side “STEPHEN KING KILLED JOHN LENNON”
Why did I know, even before clicking, that his bio would be one long breathless screed without any line breaks, and that his mailing address would be “General Delivery”?
:rolleyes:
He isn’t exactly a star, and he isn’t exactly Hollywood, but I’ve always respected Dick Cavett. Even though I’m sure he’s a flaming liberal, I could consider voting for him for public office.
