Honestly? Arnold Schwarzeneggar. He's not retarded (Bush), older than dirt with a retard running mate (McCain / Palin) nor Muslim (Obama). He's a moderate republican with a great head on his shoulders who's more fit for the job than any of these fuckwits. Unfortunate about that archaic and now-irrelevant law about being born in the US :( But maybe they'll make a Demolition Man style exception :D

George Bush for a 3rd term, because quite simply it would be hilarious to see Dave, Moonbeam, and all the others go cry for 4 more years :p

Second vote would be Rick Astley, because we could get rick rolled constantly. Think of it... a presidential address rick roll.

Third would be Richard Dean Anderson, because well face it those witty one liners would be funny.



TBH though, I would vote for somebody who I believed in. There's not many of those around so can't think of any off hand.

That's a really silly reason for picking someone to run your country.

I'd pick Judge Judy.

I've heard of reasons which are much more silly.

You mean like the people who voted for McCain/Palin because they thought Palin was hot?

KT

Or how about the people who voted for Barrack Obama because he was *gasp* BLACK??


Use a little common sense before you employ double standards, dweeb.

You wouldn't need to pick Q for president, though... he could make himself president if he wanted to! What are you going to do... tell him no?

Agreed on the first part, but I had not actually spoken to anyone who said that, so I only posted about what I actually heard from a couple of people.

Not sure why you felt the need to call me a name though. :confused:

Maybe we could try a presidential recall election if Obama doesn't work out... it worked for him last time!

I beg to differ. I have no issues with a non-natural born citizen of the US ever becoming president. I don't care if you were born there right before you boarded the plane to fly you here. If you were not born on US soil (or bases/embassy/etc) you could easily have hidden agendas to bring down the US/help your native country. I'll keep my discrimination about non-native us citizens in holding the presidency thank you.

You're dumb. This is not a political argument.

you = fail

Your inane reasons for your pick pretty much nullify your retort numbnuts.

You failed to see my second response which saved nullification of my retort.

Whose'a numbnuts now? :laugh:
More like a reprieve than a save...

Well, Hitler got himself elected. We may just think we elected Q. But judging by Q's past performance, it is far more likely he lets you know you did not elect him yet he is president so he can piss you off.

What, like a president-elect who has said in a speech "... my Muslim faith" before correcting himself? When Muslims the world round ran around the streets celebrating their "victory" on 9/11? Yeah, no secret agenda there...

The advent of fast cheap travel, better education and a global economy are what makes the idea so archaic. At the time it was for the best, but it's no longer relevant.
