    This poll could look a bit hilarious, anyway pay attention that in the history of the United States it has already happened that actors reached political offices of a certain relevance. We can remind Ronald Reagan, even if considering the long temporal gab between his movie career and his Presidency; but we can just remind Arnold Schwarzenegger who, being an immigrant, found a way to be elected governor of California [so the governor of Hollywood was a foreign actor of Hollywood, curious, isn't it?].

    Furthermore, the sympathy for this or that actor is an indication of a certain electoral orientation.

    So, let's see who, at Hollywood, could have some chance running for the Presidency ...

    P.S.
    Multiple choice is possible and unfortunately, having only 10 options I have made a quite "politically correct" selection.

    Wouldn't work. Hollywooders are almost exclusively liberals, a couple on your list are flaming liberals. We lucked out with Reagan-let's not push it.:no:
    Enjoy!

    That's a problem of Hollywood ... I guess they are so liberal because they think this makes their movies more popular, but I wonder if they don't damage their business being so lined up ...

    I voted for Denzel Washington, partly because of the way he played the main character in "Man on Fire."

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_on_Fire_(2004_film)

    I am of the opinion that theoretically........ Hollywood has the capability of saving America from some of the probable serious problems that may occur in our future.

    It seems to me that we really need a second level of currency........ such as a "Volunteerism Hour" much like Ithaca Hours........... and we need this programmed into a database so that the nearly thirty percent of the economies of America and Canada that is volunteerism in some form.......... can be more effectively directed to address real problems that people face.

    A number of Hollywood actors and actresses could get us together....... and help us become far more active..... Hell.... it could be amazing how much even Kirk Cameron might be able to do with this sort of idea...…

    Large churches in democratic nations should print their own currencies.

    Jon Voight has amazing potential....... He is pro-Israel....... and frankly I have a film series in mind that has Jon...… starring as me....... in the year 2033......… and the Jerusalem Third TEmple complex has already been completed and is in use............. and the prediction of Eporu Ronald Alfred has came to pass?!

    (any aspiring writers could take a peek at post # twenty eight).....

    Sure persons with a so high popularity should feel at least a bit of social duty [politics is a choice, clear, but they should be aware of their role in modern societies].

    In any case I have realized, making this selection, that Hollywood has really "produced" a wide sample of stars, for all tastes [and this is obvious considering the kind of business].

    I agree that a figure like Jon Voight could be a good "horse" to run for the Presidency.

    I honestly ignore if the two big parties are considering to follow this path for next elections, let's wait and see ...

    When icons are considered for leadership because they are prominent, we have to recognize that the purpose of free speech is so widely abridged that only celebrities are discussed as leaders outside of the two party fare.

    They are discussed because of their social prominence not because of their ability to define what is most important to is all.

    Concepts, ideals and principles come second to a dumbed down people.

    You have described many "prominent" politicians too ...

    Unfortunately, since the election of JFK [and Kennedy was a great politician, intelligent, valid and really able to run a country, this to be clear] imagine has played a bigger and bigger role in the choice of the candidates.

    In the category of "imagine" we can put an eventual symbolic aspect of the person [for example to be the potential first Afro-American President or to be the potential first female President ... and so on ...].

    It's not that rare to see politicians who make a great career in a party because of lobbying, external support and smart usage of one's image ... and not because of merit.

    So, why not an actor?

    My vision for the life of Jon Voight...… is that he practically saves America first........ and then runs for the Presidency afterward........... because RevAnarchist is correct that 2017 is a Jubilee year...… and is going to be HUGE somehow or another?!

    At the moment..... one of the coolest people that I would encourage....... no downright NAG....... into running for the office happens to be a poster on these forums...…


    http://www.politicalforum.com/opini...-us-set-him-up-office-potus-early-2016-a.html

    .... I feel rather strongly that this man might just be willing to campaign for the office...… in spite of the fact that he really doesn't want to....... for the exact same reason that he is probably not at home in the north eastern USA at this moment!

    He is probably somewhere else........... and he is there out of a sense of duty........ and a genuine camaraderie for some experts who he has trained.........

    I hereby nominate Sarah Palin for the proposed new office of "Artistic Director for the Republican Party"

    I challenge her to print up one billion…….."Sarah Palin Volunteerism Hours" similar to Ithaca Hours.

    I challenge her to figure out how to link this to a win - win - win - win scenario for The United States, Canada and all of our genuine allies.

    I challenge her and all of her followers on this forum to take a look at the example of Mr. Doron Kutash, (notice post #40):

    http://www.politicalforum.com/relig...p-m-brokering-jordan-israel-peace-deal-4.html

    Please pray or meditate on Canada's P. M. brokering Jordan - Israel peace deal?

    ………


    I also challenge Mrs. Sarah Palin and all of her followers on this forum to begin to consider how Christian and Jewish scriptures can become tools for artistic job creation that could stabilize the economy of the United States and positively effect many other nations, (especially Israel, Jordan, China, Russia, India and Mongolia)?!

    http://www.politicalforum.com/relig...mageddon-could-bring-world-out-recession.html
    Artistic Hollywood style "Armageddon" could bring world out of recession?!

    …..A serious attempt to replicate "Armageddon" would create a minimum of two hundred million jobs in China, India, Russia and Mongolia alone....... not to mention the number of jobs this would generate in Israel and the surrounding nations.




    Revelation 9:16

    "And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them."

    And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.
    China now holds so many American dollars that any possible way to cooperate at a higher level seems to be worthy of consideration.

    One of the "stages" is the Jerusalem Third Temple complex. Without conflict a film is boring and we all know that lots of conflict surrounds the idea of rebuilding the Third Temple. Two logical years for this to happen are 2030 (only fifteen years in the future) and also 2070.

    Di Caprio for President?

    Why not ...

    Anyway, in the last weeks I'm pondering a different option: John Travolta!

    A Scientologist for President ...

    One pitfall of celebrity rule like we got with Reagan is the cult of personality such a person generates, again like Reagan.

    But, that aside, I think President Harrison Ford would be awesome. :D I'd settle for Jesse Ventura, though.

    Well, if the next president absolutely has to be a woman, then maybe.. :roll: Honestly, I don't get it. I think this minority president angle is being played up as the latest way to distract the idiotic voting public from real issues, and so from voting for a worthwhile candidate/platform. Democracy in America is becoming every bit as bad as dictatorship, because now the dictators just hide behind propaganda and get what they want with public consent in a newer, more insidious way.

    True…… but people in Hollywood have the ability to understand how concepts and ideas that have been causing conflict…….that are grievously harming the economy……..can have artistic value that can be used to focus attention….. which could translate into job creation?!

    One of the options in front of The Donald that could help him to play out his role to make America Great......

    is for Mr. Mitt Romney..... to play the role of POTUS.... in a semi-reality science fiction film series set partly in 2012 - 2016.......

    Mitt....... in a way could fit in with the creation of a new position in the Donald Trump Administration.......

    Artistic Director of the NSA - CIA

    Much of the role for this organization could be to improve America's relationship with the nation of Israel........


    http://www.politicalforum.com/middl...jamin-netanyahu-lets-get-into-production.html
    P. M. Benjamin Netanyahu, let's get into the production of....
    .... semi reality science fiction film projects that are partly financed through alternative local currencies, and/or State currencies, and/or community currencies......... that address specific problems that human beings are facing now in 2015?

    Interesting!

    A Scientologist would have a tendency to understand non- linear time / Multiverse Theory.


    http://www.politicalforum.com/relig...osophical-implications-multiverse-theory.html
    The Philosophical implications of Multiverse Theory?
    I have suspected for about fifteen years that that time is not limited to being one straight line but instead branches.

    Over in another thread I just received a very specific and pretty amazing explanation for this that is in the language spoken by high level theoretical physicists.

    If........ you and I have been thinking seriously about changing our diet, becoming more physically active, well now we have another possible motivator?!

    The new and improved version of you and I may well get to live out life over and over and over again many times over nearly infinite time in the future, for each time that a moment within our lifetime is recreated and time is spun off in a new possible direction based on different choices that we are all free to make?!

    Clint would have made the best President.....

    I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six Tomahawks or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I lost track myself. But being as this is a AEGIS Cruiser, the most powerful Ship in the world, and would blow your Kremlin clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?"
