As a millennial who is voting for the first time in a presidential election, I'm pretty disappointed with my options. Instead of whining like a stereotypical millennial, I have taken the liberty of giving the parties a few alternatives for their nominees. I'd rather have any of these wonderful people for president, and I'm sure you would too.
1. Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation. This is a no brainer. She's smart, she's driven, and she would do whatever it takes to keep us on an upward track.
2. Sam and Dean Winchester from Supernatural. Feeling unsafe? Think there's a clown loose on campus? Think that the world is ending? Look no further for the two people who can literally SAVE THE WORLD.
3. Professor McGonagall from the Harry Potter series. A lady who could keep the peace, keep us focused, and keep us humble. We have some seriously high crime rates and judicial system issues, and I feel like most people wouldn't want to be in trouble if she was in charge.
4. Lady Gaga. Everything she does is "out of the box", and that's what everyone likes about Donald, right? It would be a much better situation if someone who was so incredibly dedicated to their music was in charge. Everyone would benefit from consistency dedication.
5. Zombie from The Walking Dead. He had real purpose man. There was not a lot going on up top, but he kept pushing forward and didn't let anything stop him.
7. Meredith Grey from Grey's Anatomy. We would be able to make real strides on healthcare reform and education. Also, we'd all know safety rules for any situation.
8. Galavant from Galavant. He sings. He dances, and he's cooler than prince charming. He's really aware of the world around him and does everything he can to meet his goals. (Also attractive.)
9. The Sloths from Zootopia. Doesn't matter how slow things are, as long as they're correct. "Slow is smooth and smooth is fast" certainly applies in this category. Having a president who's happy to be thorough is a positive in my book.
10. That kid on the Ellen Show who kept saying "apparently"... He's cute, loves his grandad, and is really youthful. America could definitely use a bit of that.
11. President Sophia Grace and VP Rosie! They're fab, sassy, and all about doing your own thing. Putting two women in the white house would be pretty great, and it may turn into the White House with Pink Sparkles.
12. My dog. She's loyal, sweet, and doesn't take no for an answer. If she wants something, she'll get it somehow.
