Should an ex-Rock & Roller be President?

I say give up on H. Cain, and yak about "the other Mormon" for a while...


I heard his wife won't let him race his dirt bike anymore.

Looks like the campaign to claim our president isn't an American is still working ain spite of all the evidence to the contrary. "Facts? We don't need no facts!"

Ted Nugent for President! Oh wait, he's still a successful rocker. Probably wouldn't take the pay cut.

Huntsman isn't a cookie cutter conservative Republican. He won't get the nomination because the fringe won't tolerate his moderate positions. He's Romney II without the baggage and plasticity. I'm not sure the eventual GOP candidate has even declared yet.

You had a movie star as governor of California... And apparently he did a pretty good job.

So why not a Rocker for US president?

(you'd have to find one drug free )

One can be born in the
uSA but spend his childhood abroad and not be as American as some one born abroad who has lived here more years.

Huntsman probably knows he won't make it past the crazy filter (primary), but he will get exposure that will prove useful in 2016.

For me, he is a competitor to Jindal.

We had two actors, and both were lousy. Both left office with larger debt than when they came in. Only one left with more kids than when he came in.

I know you had two but I'm thinking of the more recent one.

So who's it going to be?

What about Iggy Pop?

Yeah, I don't think you'd get a positive consensus on Ahnold. To the GOP, he was a RINO, and to the rest of us, he was all bluster and no result. I think the deficit grew 20% during his administration. I don't know that he kept any significant number of businesses from leaving, which seemed a big deal to him early on.

Iggy Pop? Hell yes!
