Will Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson ever run for office?

*Prowler* · 08-24-2016, 02:39 PM

I mean, he is a rich guy who is mostly consensual among people and also seems to never get involved in scandals that hurt his personal image. He's also a great speaker and very charismatic. Not to mention a much more sympathetic guy than either Hilary or Trump.

"But he's an actor!" well so was Ronald Reagan. And, at least, The Rock is a good actor.

Politically speaking, The Rock claims to be a Republican, but he has voted for Obama, meaning he's most likely not a radical when it comes to either side. he seems like a sensible person.

So... does America need The Rock to lay the smacketh down on her candy ass?

Right. But he was just Governor.

Since when do actors in the entertainment industry run for president?

...

Oh.

Oh.

Would you, per chance, vote for The Rock?

*CyberCubed* · 08-24-2016, 03:01 PM

I don't know anything about politics and since I don't watch wrestling all I know of him is the few movies I've seen him in, and whatever I hear online.

So I guess....maybe? I am as uneducated on the subject as most fellow Americans.

*The Deadman* · 08-24-2016, 03:02 PM

No, and he shouldnt run for President.

He doesn't talk much about his views, from what I gather, but he seems to identify himself as a Republican, despite having voted for Obama. So who knows.

You line Johnson up against ANY of the candyasses running this year, and I'm all for it.

*Krutch* · 08-24-2016, 03:19 PM

I'm Canadian, so, I can't vote.

But President Rock would entertain the sh*t out of us.

I wanted him to run against Obama in 2012. Imagine a debate between Obama and The Rock. I could not handle the awesomeness of it.

Do they have anything in common besides both being black?

I am a huge fan of Obama. I voted for him twice. I would vote for him a third time if I could.

Obama is the greatest president we've had since FDR.

*Krutch* · 08-24-2016, 03:44 PM

If The Rock ever goes for presidency, he should commit to being in character 100 percent of the time. Begin every public speech with "FINALLY!... The Rock... HAS COME BACK!...." and end with "IF YA SMELLLLLLL" and have his music hits.

Just...total commitment.

He should also wear cut off T-Shirts with catchphrases like "Nukes To Asses"

*plastroncafe* · 08-24-2016, 03:48 PM

One step closer....

He should run as a Libertarian and take Gary as his VP. Johnson and Johnson 2020.

I hate politics and refuse to vote because of said hatred. But if he did win, that would be hilarious on so many levels.

And, Cubed, he's half black and half Samoan.
