This is the only Maverick I know about
The one and only. As a Baby Boomer, I remember James Garner!

7. That, of course, is Bret Maverick. What about his brother Bart?


Both much better than McSame.

8. Yes.
All of these, including Tom Cruise and the car, would be better!

13. Bart wasn't the title character, but you have a point
I'd take Bart over McSame as well.

10. I don't know who that is,
but I'm guessing he'd also be better than McLame

14. Oh. Okay.
Any players on the Mavericks would be preferable as a president I guess. But if he was born in Germany, then he's not eligible.

16. Wow. A lot of Mavericks I didn’t know about. Even bikes.

But I still go with Garner, the first one.

18. Not a bad choice at all
Edited on Wed Aug-06-08 03:58 PM by blogslut
Sort of ironic, really. When old Ronny Rayguns was president of the Screen Actors Guild, James Garner was Vice President. Considering that Mr. Garner has been a devout Democrat for most of his adult life, it is a shame that he never ran for public office.

19. I didn't even know he was a Democrat. Good to know.
Now he's definitely THE maverick in my book. Although the horses, car and Tom Cruise are a close second, third and fourth.
