Who on this forum would you say is, thanks to their past rants and scandalous photos, least likely to ever be voted into political office?

Keep in mind presidential disqualification can come in many flavors, from unintended racism, to willful ignorance, to a latent yet promiscuous obsession with ponies. Also, I realize not all of us are 'mericans, so just mold the term "presidential" to fit your locale.

Well, Obama got elected so the only other reason I wouldn't be elected is because I'm too radical for my own good. I'd be firing people from bureacratic USA left and right, making more enemies as the budget deficit actually got smaller from firing the likes of Napolitano, Pistole, Morton, Espinel, Rove, Clinton, Clinton, Bush Jr., Cheney (I'd fire him twice), and any other person in a high position of power who thinks they're too big to fail.

I have done nothing that I could not cover with money; therefore I am completely capable as a presidential candidate.

Fenris would have troubles, what with all the photographs of him in Tijuana, doing lines of strippers off a coke's ass.

I have moral values and don't enjoy hurting people for the sake of demonstrating that I enjoy hurting people.

You are talking about the same strippers. I still am unsure of the physics of so many strippers on one coke.

I'd do great in politics if I could avoid my homosexuality. Other than that, I have a short cropped haircut. Business looking. I have lived my life in a bland, uncontroversial, and repressed manner that is almost unnatural. I have a sociopathic narccisim that makes me think I should be in charge of everyone so I can stand behind my points. I am serving a minimum military term. I don't make real friends or keep the kinds I might mistake as such, but I can come off making people feel warm.

I am the evil that populates your senate. I just need a fake attractive yet accessible wife and a child I forced out of her.

I'm a bit of a narcissist and a layabout, but most people think the narcissist bit is a joke so I think I could totally pull it off.

The Republican National Committee will find ones for you from whereever they recruit them for their other closet cases.

I would have rather gone for mad evil mad-scientist, but I may get more praise as President for flattening countries by a means and order I am not sure of yet.

But yeah, all I have to do is burn this forum and I get a clean record.

I'm a warmongering egomaniac with a penchant for elaborate schemes and gigantic sci-fi space lasers. I'm not sure if that works in my favour or not in this case....

Personally I'd probably just vote for Fifth, just to see what happens.

Angela Merkel is not president, she's chancellor. President is some other dude. I have to honestly say I don't know who's president now. It used to be Horst Köhler, but that dude is gone now and I didn't get around to memorizing the new guy's name yet. Of course the president in Germany is completely expendable. A brain dead monkey could do the job.

But okay, you win, since chancellor is probably the closest to a head of state we have, although I think the president is supposed to be that, but all he does is sit in his office and sign everything, and if he doesn't do it they'll just kick his ass outta there and let someone else do it.

Don't let Germans run for office. In fact, don't let Germans have a government.

Well I'd probably make the rest of the world like Fallout and then China and Russia and all of those guys would make us like Fallout, but I suppose the end result is the same either way.

So when I head over to Germany in September, my complete conquest of your country is cool right? Cause I actually have a plan for it.

My German professor had us all write these essays and I got bored and wrote out a plan of world conquest starting with Germany. I have a few rough copies if you would like to see.

My future presidential run is forever jeopardized by the bloody violent killing spree I went on at some point before my presidential run.

Like, no, I haven't gone on a bloody violent killing spree, I'm just saying that I'd have to be crazy already before I tried to run for any political office.

Pretty sure that wouldn't disqualify you though, I think military bases are with embassies and territories that for political purposes, such as citizenship, they are American soil

now on topic, I'd say just about anyone thats ever gotten banned from the News/serious discussion forum. Normally this is because they make remarks that a particular group would find offensive, and we all know that nothing short of a sex scandal is more harmful to your political career.
