Im borrowing this idea but I thought it might shed some light on people's views here. If you could pick any living American political figure either in or out of office to be President, in an ideal world, who would you choose? Forget the rules. Forget who is running. Just pick who you'd have....It can be Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Barak Obama, Nancy Reagan..Anyone alive today...

Im taking Bob Kerry.

    I'd pick a savvy businessman. Can't think of anyone off the top of my head right now though, but I know I wouldn't pick a politician.

    Bill Maher, Neil Boortz, and I would possibly support Ron Paul. Even though I don't agree with his Pro-Life stance or his stance on same sex marriage. I do agree with his stance that it is no business of the federal government, or the Supreme Court, becoming entangled in these issues and should be left to each individual state to decide.

    A US President must be a natural born American citizen. So your choice is not only stupid, it is impossible.

    At this point I'd go with Ron Paul.

    I bet Henry Rollins would make a compelling president.
