3 Fictional People Who Would Make A Great President
Bustle

Without a doubt, this election is a polarizing one. I’m pretty sure that almost everyone is sick of all of the political posts on social media about each candidate. It feels as if everyday there is some new scandal or something that riles up the entire country. Personally, I say that we suspend this election and take a look at some of our options. So, I have compiled a list of people who I think would do a great job as president.

Disclaimer: This article is just humorous. Please, please, please, vote this November.

3. Michael Scott

I would be lying to you if I said I didn’t cry when Michael Scott made his exit from The Office. Without a doubt, Michael Scott is not only the best boss ever, but one of the best characters of our time. I believe that Michael Scott would be able to take his leadership skills out of Scranton and into the Oval Office, and be very successful at that. Hopefully, Dwight will be his VP as well as the rest of the cast would make an appearance in his cabinet.

2. Leslie Knope

Leslie Knope is a bit more qualified for the presidency because unlike Michael Scott, she has actual political experience. If Leslie was president, I believe that Waffle Day would be an actual National Holiday. Also, Leslie Knope would make a great president because she had to deal with so much nonsense in Pawnee for all of those years, I think taking on Congress and the rest of the country would be a piece of cake for her.

1. Francis Underwood

Anyone who Watches House of Cards knows that Francis Underwood would make just as good of a president as any realistic person running today. Underwood has not only the experience, but the power to whip this country into shape. Being a southern Democrat, Underwood would bring a certain je ne sais quoi to our country. I could easily see him meeting with the Queen of England for some afternoon tea and being a host for SNL by night.

Honorable Mention - Jon Snow

KING OF THE NORTH! KING OF THE NORTH! KING OF THE NORTH!

Our favorite bastard, Jon Snow, has overcome so much in the last several seasons of Game of Thrones. From being basically the awkward child that didn’t quite fit in, to defeating everyone’s least favorite bastard, Ramsay Bolton, Jon Snow has come a long way. Being (probably) half Targaryen and half Stark, Jon Snow has the best genes out of any other character on the show. Let’s ship Jon Snow out of Winterfell and to the capitol ASAP!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
