I should run for president
Fuck it lads, [I]I[/I] should run for President. Sure several culchies here have mistaken me for an American, I'm sure that's the only hurdle I need to overcome. I'd get all the Irish Americans on board. There'd be free Guinness for all on St. Patrick's Day. I'd certainly be more qualified than Trump anyway. I come from a country with a proper education system. [B][I][U]/s[/U][/I][/B]
I will only acept this if they settle everything in the ring. Rock vs Puttin at Wrestlemania 40.
I wonder if trump has been the beginning of celebrity presidency or if everyone will forever use trump as an example of why celebrities are not good presidents.
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;52212974]Since Trump was elected, it's been proven that 0 political experience can get people elected. Even Oprah is considering.

[QUOTE=postal;52212913]Ahaha fuck it, I would love to see this happen[/QUOTE] I wouldn't. I don't want the free world to be ruled by someone who is unqualified ever again.
political experience aside, it's worth the consideration at least: - registered as republican with liberal views on social issues - part of a previous organization dedicated to registering and getting out the vote (smackdown your vote) - has attended both the RNC and DNC - [URL="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/features/drive-despair-rock-dwayne-johnson-712689"]the literal embodiment of "pull yourself up by your bootstraps"[/URL] - samoan and african american heritage - [URL="https://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/24/movies/dwayne-johnson-star-of-san-andreas-is-solid-solid-as-a.html"]consistently one of the most liked celebrities[/URL] - could utilize the power of Hollywood money for superpacs, advertising, voter registration drives, etc.
A year ago i'd have a cute grin and forget about news like this but these days I have to remember it's a legitimate possibility. I'd still take it
I mean, The Rock IS already highly involved in the intelligence community. Can't forget [url=https://twitter.com/TheRock/status/64877987341938688]this[/url] tweet.

And since Trump damaged idea of having a celebrity as your American politician, I going say no thanks to having another Celebrity president for half century.
i mean id rather not have two non-politicians be president two terms in a row, but id take dwayne johnson over trump any day
[QUOTE=Luni;52212957]Jokes aside, I don't know how I feel about running for President increasingly becoming a publicity stunt for celebrities with no political experience.[/QUOTE] It was a joke before Trump showed up. Everyone just pretended it wasn't. Trump only made the circus show its true colors.

I would vote for Terry Crews or the Rock before almost any current career politician that I can think of except maybe Sanders. Bring it on.
[QUOTE=ChadMcGoatMan;52219682]And since Trump damaged idea of having a celebrity as your American politician, I going say no thanks to having another Celebrity president for half century.[/QUOTE] We already had a celebrity president for most of the 80s, I doubt the American people would be turned off by another one.
[QUOTE=Grenadiac;52224094]I would vote for Terry Crews or the Rock before almost any current career politician that I can think of except maybe Sanders. Bring it on.[/QUOTE] Because of the Old Spice commercials, I can't help but imagine Terry Crews answering every question from the press with 'POWER!'
[QUOTE=LTJGPliskin;52224419]We already had a celebrity president for most of the 80s, I doubt the American people would be turned off by another one.[/QUOTE] Yea that was the case before Reagan long-term economic drawbacks affected today issues. But this is today when Trump is still president with creating already a negative image on the idea now and because of that most people right now don't want another celebrity president that would ruin this nation even further.
