Presidential candidates and fraternity brothers aren’t always thought of as belonging to the same category, but are they really that different? Both candidates and fraternities have a unique way of defining themselves. Each of them is publicly proud and think their parties are the best. So, if the leading presidential candidates were to go Greek, what fraternities would they be rushing?

Marco Rubio – Delta Sigma Phi

A young candidate for a young fraternity. Like the brothers of Delta Sig, Rubio is generally well-liked by those who know him. As more and more fraternities get kicked off campus, Delta Sig holds its ground as a promising up-and-coming fraternity. Regular Delta Sig party-goers don’t always make up the majority, but, definitely make their presence known.

Ted Cruz – KA

A fraternity and a candidate who like to stay on top. While sometimes controversial, KA knows how to keep a loyal following. Made of brothers with personalities that don’t shy away from competition, other fraternities know that KA is a force to reckon with. However, with a dedication to philanthropy and brothers who know how to have a good time, KA is safe from having the reputation of being the craziest one in the group.

John Kasich – Lambda Chi

Not a name you hear every day on campus or in the news. There aren’t many people who have super passionate feelings when it comes to Lambda Chi, which is good because that means hardly anyone hates them. Made of a group of guys who don’t always serve as the stereotypical examples of "frat," Lambda Chi keeps their foot in the race by throwing a few, huge, crazy parties over the course of the year which keeps people talking. Probably won’t get kicked off campus anytime soon and definitely is a considered option for guys interested in pledging.

Donald Trump – Delta Sigma Pi

A frat that’s all about business, but also has a crazy side. Like Trump, DSP isn’t afraid to be a part of a whole different kind of fraternity. Smart and logic based, the brothers of DSP aren’t the first people you want to start a debate with. However, despite their façade for being business-centered, people on campus go crazy trying to be an official follower, or member, of this fraternity. These brothers know how to have fun - the parties they throw and some of their “bonding” traditions keep people excited about being associated with DSP.

Bernie Sanders – Pi Beta Chi

Pi Beta Chi, formerly known as Delta Chi, isn’t afraid to march to the beat of its own drum, just like Mister Bernie Sanders. People love this fraternity and continue to go there weekend after weekend swearing by their loyalty to it. Known for their big DJ parties, or live-concert parties, PBX knows exactly how to give college students what they want.

So, even though fraternity brothers are concerned about themed or not-themed parties while candidates are more focused on Republican or Democratic parties, the two aren’t exactly polar opposites. And, although the likelihood of any of these men becoming JMU fraternity bothers is extremely slim, no one can deny that the White House Lawn would be a pretty awesome place for the next day drink.
