President

Very rarely do we ever have an instance where a celebrity applies for office, let alone the oval office, but here we are in 2015 and sadly that individual is Donald Trump. I am here to launch a much better campaign: Kevin Spacey 2015. Can you imagine, the wondrous actor who brought us Frank Underwood in the hit Netflix Original, House of Cards, running our country? It would be epic and honestly a far greater moment in America’s history than bumbling idiots like Trump making a play for the presidency. Who wouldn’t want to see Spacey doing his presidential addresses as Frank Underwood? There would never be a more viewed presidential address in history. Well, within reason.

The first reason I think Spacey would make a great candidate is because people love him. It is just a proven fact. For instance, Netflix, wanted to make a program with Kevin Spacey in it, because they found that people love his movies and his acting. If Kevin Spacey is in it it, you can bet ratings and likability go up, therefore, I believe that he is the perfect candidate to be the most “powerful” man on Earth.

Secondly, he played Frank Underwood. In order to execute the role as perfectly as he did, we know he had to do his research. I have no doubt in my mind that Spacey has the knowledge and the competency to implement policy, govern individuals, and work with leaders of the world. Not to mention, he has a great view on things and makes important, well-founded comments. Take the following quotes for instance:

“Give people what they want, when they want it, in the form they want it in, at a reasonable price, and they’ll more likely pay for it rather than steal it. Well, some will still steal it, but I think we can take a bite out of piracy.”

“I feel it’s a responsibility for anyone who breaks through a certain ceiling… to send the elevator back down and give others a helpful lift.”

Anyway you look at it, having Spacey as the president of the United States would be pretty cool. Though I think he has found his own area to reign in, film, I believe that he would be a great celebrity candidate for presidency. For the first time, in awhile, he would make people interested in politics. In the end, it’s all about what the people want and I think that people, if they have to have a celebrity in office, want Spacey 2015.
