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?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
