THE BEST POTENTIAL PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES OF ALL TIME
It seems like the same rich, white guys run for president every four years, doesn’t it? And every four years, we have the commercials, the campaigns, the yard signs. I don’t know about you, but I’m getting pretty tired of fighting over the redness, blueness, donkey-ness and elephant-ness of this country when we could be at our maximum potential.
Law degrees? Political science degrees? Experience? Nah. None of those things seem all that important when the following people could maybe, possibly, be the leader of our country:
Kanye West
I’m sure most of us heard about “Kanye, 2020.” Kanye West is many things: a musician, a fashion designer, a husband, but could being the President of the United States of America be one of them? In 2016, he pretty famously pledged to run in the upcoming 2020 election. Now that it’s actually 2020, he’s pushed his run to 2024. Practically everything about Kanye West is questionable by the public, ranging from his fashion sense, his music and the things he says on a daily basis… so, what would this country look like if he was the face of this nation? More importantly, what would this country look like if Kim Kardashian was the first lady? All I can say is, if Kanye West is our president, we will have a leader that “hates politics” and is “not a politician at all,” in the words of Ye himself.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
Just imagine The Rock and all his muscles sitting in the oval office. A lot of people speculated that he would run for president in the 2020 election, but that obviously didn’t happen. However, Johnson hasn’t completely given up on the idea. He says he just lacks experience. But, like I stated previously, it’s not really experience that we’re looking for, right? I mean, Johnson’s “save-the-world” attitude wouldn’t be put to waste.
Cardi B
Okay, well, she didn’t say she was going to run for president, but in a tweet she did say, “I do feel like if I go back to school and focus up I can be apart of Congress. I deada** have sooo much ideas that make sense. I just need a couple years of school and I can shake the table.” With so “much ideas” that make sense and just a few years of school, Cardi B will be approving this message in her campaign to become a senator. I think the only question is, will our taxes go towards her manicures?
Katy Perry
Not totally sure how to feel about Katy Perry as a president. Rumors flew about her potential candidacy after she posted a particular Instagram post (what else?), but this option brings a lot of questions: is the White House not colorful enough? When was the last time I heard a Katy Perry song? If she’s barely qualified to be an American Idol judge, is she qualified enough to be President? Is being a judge on American Idol equivalent to being President of the United States? I think the answer might be yes.
Donald Trump
Oh, wait.
**April Fool’s! (Maybe.)
