Question

Do you think that Obama would be better off playing a president in a hollywood movie?

Answer 1

No. He isn't attractive enough to be an actor. He's got a gift for telling people a bunch of nonsense and making people believe in some insubstantial constantly floating idea, which you can never put your finger on. Perfect for politics.

Answer 2

If we remade Air Force 1 using presidential candidates, Obama could be Harrison Ford, because just like Obama, people think he is weak because he is young, but at the end of the day he won't negotiate with terrorists.  McCain could be that Russian dictator that convinces everyone he is a patriot, but really he is a self-serving warmonger, so he gets shot  Sarah could be Glenn Close...of course, she'd have to cover up a little more...punching out 542542 babies can't be good for your figure.

Answer 3

yup obama would play the president and mccain would probably play the elderly guys in cocoon - running around with his "depends" on.  Poor mccain, I hope he gets his irritable bowel syndrome under control.

Answer 4

NO!!!

Answer 5

Absolutely!  He would probably win an Oscar...lol  His acting abilities are very good, however, he would need plenty of time to memorize his lines.  I don't believe a good actor could use a telepromptor and Obama definitely needs one!

Answer 6

Or sleeping in a Holiday Inn. Express.

Answer 7

More like the corrupt backroom politician he really is.

Rezco,Ayres, Rev Wright, shady land deals, playing the race card, and throwing his grandmother and his brother under the bus. That's Obama allright !

Answer 8

Better off sitting in the WH

(He'd make more money in a movie however)

Answer 9

He'd never get that role -- too young.

Hollywood likes their black presidents to have graying hair... and in fact, they'd cast Pallin more easily.

(funny observation, by you)

Answer 10

I must just say, you question caught my eye and made me laugh! I can truly see it.

Answer 11

Well, he is very good looking... but that's Morgan Freeman's part.

Morgan Freeman also makes an awesome G-d.

Peace.

Answer 12

Do you think McCain would be better off playing the mummy?

Answer 13

After the last depressing 8 years of Bush anything looks rosey and better than reality. That is how far we have drifted from happier days. I can tell you that I would like to be better off than I was before Bush. I will vote for Obama because I want to be happy and not worry about the future like I am right now. Then I can go to the movies and watch a disaster flick and know it is fake.

Answer 14

No, but Ronald Reagan should have left it at that. Obama has something REAL to offer, a switch from the failed policies of Bush.

Answer 15

Yeah, because he can fake it as good as any oscar winning actor I know. But he would be better off as a thug.  

Answer 16

They usually reserve that role for Morgan Freeman.

Answer 17

Probably better off sweepin the floor somewhere

Answer 18

No I do not.  I truly believe that he gets it.  Unlike McCain choosing someone who says she's for wildlife, but is not.  Do you know that Gov. Palin refuses to sign a bill that protects Wolves?  In-fact, she passing out the license for aerial hunting of the species.  I saw a picture of her wear a coat with wolf fur on it.

Obama is America.  He's, you, me, and the less fortunate

He gets how it works.  The Question is, can he pull it off? Yes I think he can.  He's the heart of America.

Answer 19

no way for actors have to be convincing to everyone and so far Obama has only convinced fools, although he might have a good shot at doing the voice for porky the pig in a disney cartoon, man what a fraud////

Answer 20

next 10 years after he finished his second team..hollywood will making movie about he turn economy around how he  borough the troop home.

and world peace.

Answer 21

Libs are great at that; it's the only place where their "presidential" decisions don't create havoc.

In movies, the President can personally fight terrorists off his plane (Airforce One) or can fly a plane and battle aliens (Independance Day).

Funny thing is Bush can do those things for REAL!

....and they hate him for it

Answer 22

Let's not put Morgan Freeman out of work now OK?

Answer 23

No, he is not an actor

Answer 24

He would do less harm.

Answer 25

Clearly, because fiction is the only place progressive enough for someone who isn't white to be president.

And let me draw your attention to the dripping of the sarcasm.

Answer 26

He is not such a great actor.  You can see the strings of deception. He just plays the outsider card to his advantage.

Answer 27

Yeah.

And McCain could play Rambo. He seems to love that kind of c**p.

Answer 28

Hahahahahahaahahah,,,,,,,,,oh, sorry, still LAUGHING at that first answer, about how Bush can do all that for REAL---------------

anyway,.,........to answer your question............real or Hollywood.......people like to see educated, well spoken, smart presidents, who know how to deal with every crisis.............so I think Obama would do well in Hollywood or Washington.

Bush on the other hand.......should go back to mis-managing his failed baseball team.

Answer 29

as long as he has cue cards.

Answer 30

YES.You may like Obama and what he is promising you , but at the end of the day is can you deep down TRUST him with his shaky past and a unproven record ?

I do not believe he can unite white Americans and will drive a deeper divide between blacks and whites. Neither Obama or McCain have a good program to get America out of debt and on the way to recovery.
