Pick the President!

Kodos · 09-09-2011, 12:31 PM

You have the ability to hand pick the next U.S. President. Only a few rules.

1. They must be alive.
2. They must be eligible to be President (U.S. citizen, old enough, no more than 1 term already served, so no Clinton or Bush II).
3. It can't be you.

Who do you pick?

Kodos · 09-09-2011, 01:04 PM

Honestly? Hillary Clinton.

Lathum · 09-09-2011, 01:59 PM

Sportsdigs had Capsicum as a candidate 2 weeks ago

JPhillips · 09-09-2011, 02:10 PM

I'm so used to settling for the best worst option that I don't know my ideal candidate. I might bring Bill Clinton back, but there's probably somebody better out there.

NPH (Neil Patrick Harris)
or

(in stupid voice) MATT DAMON

Schmidty · 09-09-2011, 02:43 PM

Ron Paul

Kodos · 09-09-2011, 03:01 PM

George Clooney! He'd make a handsome President!

rowech · 09-09-2011, 03:07 PM

Matt Damon

CAsterling · 09-09-2011, 03:28 PM

Martin Sheen, after all his West Wing experience he should be excellent at the job.

SteveMax58 · 09-09-2011, 03:28 PM

Morgan Freeman

stevew · 09-09-2011, 03:32 PM

Bill Belichick-
He's always right, and is excellent at using surveillance equipment. Perfect choice for America going forward.

CrimsonFox · 09-09-2011, 03:44 PM

PICK YOUR NOSE!

If the President is destined to be an incompetent twit, I at least want the illusion of competence or eye candy.

If we're being serious, then Ron Paul. I want the polar opposite of the last 20 years of the bought and paid for corporate parties just to try and balance things back out to a reasonable approach.

You must be watching Alphas...?

QuikSand · 09-09-2011, 04:18 PM

Since it's obviously not going to be that kind of thread, I'll go with Mark Cuban.

tucker rocky · 09-09-2011, 04:30 PM

Clint Eastwood

Pumpy Tudors · 09-09-2011, 05:01 PM

I think the job requires a larger-than-life presence. That's what it takes to get people to listen these days. So I change my vote to Lily Allen's left ankle.

Hah! Thanks.

tarcone · 09-09-2011, 05:10 PM

Hayden Fry.

BYU 14 · 09-09-2011, 05:18 PM

Roger Goodell, because he could just suspend congress for 4 sessions when they couldn't get the fucking budget balanced.

Suburban Rhythm · 09-09-2011, 05:23 PM

He's posted twice in this thread, and nobody's nominated Pumpy yet? Plus, isn't Pumpy Day right around Inauguration Day anyway? Makes too much sense for it not to happen.

Schmidty · 09-09-2011, 05:39 PM

Sorry. I didn't realize that this was a serious thread. In that case, I nominate the Hamburglar. Robble robble.

M GO BLUE!!! · 09-09-2011, 05:40 PM

Lloyd Carr... if only for the press conferences!

Big Fo · 09-09-2011, 06:20 PM

Bob Bradley has proven that he can get average results with average talent.

Mustang · 09-09-2011, 07:05 PM

Paul Ryan

Havok · 09-09-2011, 07:49 PM

Marco Rubio (he will be one day anyway)

Not a bad pick at all.

SI

Kodos · 09-09-2011, 08:54 PM

It actually was intended to be serious. Just curious who out there actually excites people in a Presidential manner.

Probably a solid choice. I have been watching him casually the past 6 years or so. He fills a void that Henry Cisneros left that was never filled. As we see the rise of the Hispanic majority over the next decade and more; someone like a Rubio or perhaps himself will be seen as a candidate that cross pollinates.

(I know he has a Cuban background, but the Hispanic groups I know really are massively excited by him.)
