Let them have Ahnold...we should run our own actor....

I nominate Kevin Spacey.

Did you see him rip up the *-esqe character in The Life of David Gale?

Hilarious.

3. That's okay, when the change the law to let Ahnold run for

President, we will work on getting the vote for everyone, from anywhere.

Why not? We have already let our jobs go out of the country, why not our political processes too?

I nominate Kevin Spacey for President, William Hurt for Veep.

On second thought, if we are ever to get an African-American female President, how about Whoopi Goldberg.

7. Screw actors, we need a genuine rock star to run up

against Arnold. Can you imagine, free concerts, with a message when campaigning? Voluntary campaign donations only. Arnold and his wooden English can't compete with that. Who should we nominate? I'm not up on the music scene, but other than the Dixie Chicks who else is political and left?

8. Jack Black! Of the "School of Rock"

Did anyone hear him on Democracy Now last week?

"I would vote Green party all the way if I thought they had a prayer."

He totally impressed me with his candor, truthfulness.

AND he's a musician AND actor.

9. In order for this to have the proper poetic justice...

-and I'm all for poetic justice, - we need to find a heavily, traditionally, strongly Republican state. Someplace like, say...Texas. And then we need to run a democratic 'candidate' for governor who'll turn that state into a laughing stock. Say...Ru-Paul, or PeeWee Herman.

10. Actually Texas still has a lot of Democrats.

I nominate Kansas, Nebraska, any Dakota or Utah.

11. Oh I know it does, but it's still on a par with California

which has a lot of Republicans in the Palm Desert, Orange County and Simi Valley areas.

Not to worry, it's all hypothetical anyway. I'm pretty sure no one's trying to talk Ru-Paul into running for governor of Texas. ;-)

:hi:

12. I don't see anyone suggesting Tim Robbins.

The man knows his politics. And why are the only chicks talked about the Dixie Chicks?
