10 Fictional Characters Who Should Run For President
huffington post

In just a few months our country will elect a new president, our candidates have been chosen and the ballots are set. Political debate is in full swing so there is no better time to lighten things up. Here are ten fictional characters who would make excellent presidential candidates, choose you vote carefully!


Leslie Knope

Of course, the obvious choice. Her time in the Pawnee Parks Department has shown she is more than capable of being a successful president. Also, come on people it is her life long dream.

Professor Minerva McGonagall

Lets be honest, she basically ran Hogwarts with her BFF Albus Dumbledore. I'm pretty sure she has plenty of spells to combat any problem she could face in the White House.

Bugs Bunny

First of all, everyone needs a little comic relief in their lives, but more importantly Bugs can get himself out of any situation, dupe any Elmer Fudd and always ends up on top. He would start every speech with "Whats up Doc?" and you've got to admit that line brings you right back to your childhood.

Dwight Schrute

Structured and ethical, Schrute has a position on almost every issue and will score well with business men and farmers alike.

Olivia Pope

Okay, who are we kidding, Olivia saved Fitz' presidency more than once in the first season of Scandal alone. She has proved that she can stay cool in any situation and would make one bad-ass president.

Willy Wonka

Who wouldn't want a "world of pure imagination" and chocolate waterfalls? I think four years is just enough time to turn the country into his chocolate factory. That's really all he'd need to do as president...

Ron Swanson

Steak would be guaranteed at every White House dinner. He is rational, realistic and principled. His campaign slogan would be "Never half ass two things. Whole ass one thing"

Leroy Jethro Gibbs

He is definitely the Commander-in-Chief of NCIS. He commands respect with his no-nonsense leadership and is revered by his team. He knows that sometimes people need a little smack on the back of the head and he has a rule for everything.

Kim Possible

"It doesn't matter where or when there's trouble," she'll be there on the double. Talk about reliable, am I right? She was fighting crime when she was in high school so I'm sure she could run the country, no problem. Seriously thought call her or beep her if you want to reach her...

Barney Stinson

He would be a legen...wait for it...dary president! Stinsons has already proved himself to be capable of convincing people to do anything, while being quite the risk taker himself. He would have a play in his playbook for any situation that would come his way in the White house and he would always be dressed to impress! His campaign slogan would definitely be "Challenge Accepted!"


So who would you vote for?

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
