10 Fictional Characters Who Should Run For President
huffington post

In just a few months our country will elect a new president, our candidates have been chosen and the ballots are set. Political debate is in full swing so there is no better time to lighten things up. Here are ten fictional characters who would make excellent presidential candidates, choose you vote carefully!


Leslie Knope

Of course, the obvious choice. Her time in the Pawnee Parks Department has shown she is more than capable of being a successful president. Also, come on people it is her life long dream.

Professor Minerva McGonagall

Lets be honest, she basically ran Hogwarts with her BFF Albus Dumbledore. I'm pretty sure she has plenty of spells to combat any problem she could face in the White House.

Bugs Bunny

First of all, everyone needs a little comic relief in their lives, but more importantly Bugs can get himself out of any situation, dupe any Elmer Fudd and always ends up on top. He would start every speech with "Whats up Doc?" and you've got to admit that line brings you right back to your childhood.

Dwight Schrute

Structured and ethical, Schrute has a position on almost every issue and will score well with business men and farmers alike.

Olivia Pope

Okay, who are we kidding, Olivia saved Fitz' presidency more than once in the first season of Scandal alone. She has proved that she can stay cool in any situation and would make one bad-ass president.

Willy Wonka

Who wouldn't want a "world of pure imagination" and chocolate waterfalls? I think four years is just enough time to turn the country into his chocolate factory. That's really all he'd need to do as president...

Ron Swanson

Steak would be guaranteed at every White House dinner. He is rational, realistic and principled. His campaign slogan would be "Never half ass two things. Whole ass one thing"

Leroy Jethro Gibbs

He is definitely the Commander-in-Chief of NCIS. He commands respect with his no-nonsense leadership and is revered by his team. He knows that sometimes people need a little smack on the back of the head and he has a rule for everything.

Kim Possible

"It doesn't matter where or when there's trouble," she'll be there on the double. Talk about reliable, am I right? She was fighting crime when she was in high school so I'm sure she could run the country, no problem. Seriously thought call her or beep her if you want to reach her...

Barney Stinson

He would be a legen...wait for it...dary president! Stinsons has already proved himself to be capable of convincing people to do anything, while being quite the risk taker himself. He would have a play in his playbook for any situation that would come his way in the White house and he would always be dressed to impress! His campaign slogan would definitely be "Challenge Accepted!"


So who would you vote for?

Bailey Totten

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

Kristen Sack, ORHS Graduation

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
