After watching Robin Williams in "Man of the People," I started wondering what it would be like if different celebrities ran for the presidency of the United Sates of America. It's not very likely that the American people would vote one of them into the presidency. But then again, who knows? Who would have ever thought that Arnold Swartznager, Sonny Bono and Jesse Ventura would ever hold a public office.

In a spirit of fun and fantasy, here is what it might be like if a few popular (and not so popular) celebrities decided to run for the presidency of the United States of America.

Candidate 1: Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton's Campaign Slogan: "Like, it would be so hot to be your president."

Paris Hilton's Campaign Issues: Bad shopping malls, with like, no Fendi and Prada stores. The state of American music, which must of course be in trouble because Paris's album flopped. And what is with that Wal-Mart place again, do they sell walls there? If they don't then that's false advertising!

Paris Hilton's Campaign Promises: A Hilton hotel in every town. Hot parties for the foreign diplomats, but only the cute ones. An end to the war in Iraq, because, like, those uniforms are so ugly.

Political Scandal Index: Paris Hilton's brief imprisonment for driving with a suspended driver's license. Hey, at least we know she can drive. Many voters would be reassured by this, since rumors surfaced that Paris Hilton couldn't walk and chew gum at the same time.

Paris Hilton's infamous and widely published sex tape. Maybe since she got it out of her system before office, she won't surprise us with one after being elected. And if another sex tape turned up it wouldn't be such a shocking surprise the second time around since everyone knows what to expect.

Takeaways
  • -What if Paris Hilton, Martha Stewart, Tom Cruise and Lindsey Lohan ran for President?
