Well, the Rock did just announce that he is interested in politics.

Kidding aside, he would likely make a much better leader than the current self indulgent noise.

For all his flaws, Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho (had to write his name in full) is actually a good leader who genuinely wants the best for his people.

Ronald Reagan. Donald Trump. Shit... why not Dwayne Johnson?

I'm pretty sure Arnold would become a president at some point if he was born in the US.

For context:

- "Arnold" is Arnold Schwarzenegger, an Austrian-born American actor who served as Governor of California. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_Schwarzenegger

- The US Constitution restricts eligibility for the Presidency to "natural-born citizens" of the US. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural-born-citizen_clause_(U...

I don’t see why having to be born in the country you’ve adopted is a requirement.

If anything, making a choice to be a citizen and public leader is more significant an indicator of loyalty than an accident of birth.

Not everything can be chosen.

I don't think grouping Reagan and The Rock with Trump is fair at all.

[spankalee]

If the category is TV/movie celebrities in politics, why not?

[ss108]

Fair enough lol

[dagw]

Reagan at least accured some political experience and held lower elected office before running for president. Trump used his celebrity status to compensate for his lack of experience and went straight for the presidency. Time will tell which path, if any, The Rock will follow. Although judging by the current political mood, my money is on the Trump path.
