Drake for President
I don't know about the rest of you, but quite frankly, I've had enough of the presidential debate and politics this year to send me into hibernation. With all the talk about "making America great again," I've come up with an almost flawless plan: make Drake the next President. How great is that America?
Rapper, songwriter, and lyrical god, Aubrey Drake Graham ("Drake"), also known as Drizzy, is the best candidate I can think of to take the position as the next president of the United States.
Here's why:
1. Drake is in touch with his emotions
He could probably end all current & future wars because of his caring nature and soft, tender side. He knows wrong from right and could easily win anyone over with his charming smile.
"Wish you would learn to love people and use things. And not the other way around."
2. He is determined to be the best
Every great leader should have a good tactic and ability to crush their opponents, you know, just in case. Drake proved his superiority in the rap game when Meek Mill called him out on Twitter. Instead of being petty and replying through social media, Drake released not one, but two diss tracks and completely shut Meek Mill down. That's how it's done. He single-handedly destroyed that man's rap career and his reputation, not to mention he did it very tastefully.
"It ain’t about who did it first, it’s ’bout who did it right."
3. Drake is a legend
Is there really much more to be said about this one? I didn't think so either.
"Oh my God, oh my God; If I die, I'm a legend."
4. He is motivated to succeed
I mean, he started from the bottom, now look where he is. He's here, and he brought his whole team with him.
"Checks bounced, but we bounced back."
5. He doesn't discriminate
Unlike Donald Trump, he doesn't bash certain ethnic parties or threaten to deport anyone out of the country. He is black, white, Jewish and Canadian, and to top it off, he cares about everyone. (Except Meek Mill, of course.)
"Please don't forget I'm black, please don't forget I'm Jewish. I play ball like Lebron and I know what a W-2 is."
6. Drake knows how to handle his money
He could probably pull us out of debt solely based on the last three albums that he's dropped in the past year.
"They be staring at the money like it's unfamiliar, I get it, I live it. To me there's nothing realer. Just enough to solve your problems, cause' too much would kill ya."
7. He has confidence
He has enough for himself and the rest of the country.
"I’m the greatest, man. I said that before I knew I was."
8. He is indestructible
Drake starred in the teen drama series "Degrassi: The Next Generation." He played the character of the modish student Jimmy Brooks, who was confined to a wheelchair. He gets shot by his ex best friend, but look at Drake, still living and whatnot. #Bulletproof
"5 a.m., going to shoot Degrassi up on Morningside. For all the stunting, I'll forever be immortalized."
9. Drake is a mama's boy
He learned a lot of valuable life lessons from his one-of-a-kind mother who taught him a lot about life, and a lot more about love. He has a strong moral compass, and will always respect his mother and her advice.
"At least I'm always being true to what you taught me"
10. If you're reading this, it's too late
No, literally, it's too late now. Plus, Drake was born in Canada, so even though he is considered a U.S. citizen, he isn't a "natural-born" citizen, much like our good pal Ted Cruz.
We can all dream though. #VoteDrake2016
