If all the board members were Presidents, what would our approval ratings be?

[DroppinScience]

Yeah, I'm bored. ;)

So which board members do you think would have high approval ratings? Who has low approval ratings?

Who would be the FDR of the board, always scoring soaringly high ratings throughout his four-term presidency (I'd go with Echewta on this...).

Who would be like Bush? Always has wishy-washy ratings and then a catostrophe occurs and ascends to 90% approval ratings but then eventually declines right back to where he usually is (just above, or just below, 50%) and remains a completely polarizing figure?

Which member is Clinton-esque and would be caught in a sex scandal but still maintains consistantly strong ratings even as he's being threatened with impeachment.

Yeah, this is an odd as fuck question, but just run with it, okay?

[ToucanSpam]

I am the Teddy Roosevelt of the board.

[Freebasser]

If anyone says J. Edgar Hoover then I'll fucking nut them.

[DroppinScience]

I am the Teddy Roosevelt of the board.

So you're basically a rogue to your own political party and you piss off the South by speaking out against lynchings and invite Booker T. Washington to a White House dinner?

You do seem to speak loudly and poke everyone with a big stick, though (particularly the females ;) ). Not very Roosevelt like there. :p

[paul jones]

Lincoln has to be Turdbegler

[Lindsey_1535]

Can I be a prime minister instead?

Booker T and I were tight.

Fuck Roosevelt, I'm totally Martin Van Buren. :cool:

[DroppinScience]

']J. Edgard Hoover.

Not a President. Herbert Hoover was a Prez, though.

[DroppinScience]

Can I be a prime minister instead?

Whatever you want. Question is, would you be a popular Prime Minister (Pearson)? Or an unpopular Prime Minister (Mulroney)?

[Nuzzolese]

This is such a cute thread. I wish I remembered more from American President's class in 12th grade.

[ToucanSpam]

If PMs are in the picture, Give me Trudeau. :cool: :cool: :cool:

[Tone Capone]

I'm Gerald Ford. Never elected as Pres or Vice but, still ended up rocking the Presidential pajama's... and my wife is a junky (y)

[Lindsey_1535]

OH NO.
I would be Alexander MacKenzie.

[DroppinScience]

Now that we've established Presidents... anyone wanna wager what their (or other members) approval ratings would be on this board?

[Qdrop]

i guess i'd be bush.....according to the way you explained him in approval ratings.

i'm alot smarter than that fucker, though.

[Tone Capone]

Now that we've established Presidents... anyone wanna wager what their (or other members) approval ratings would be on this board?

Who cares? I was never even elected, I'm just happy to get free flights on Air Force One (y)

[Echewta]

Why would my ratings be so high? I don't think I'm that loveable. I do wear glasses though and enjoy a fine cigar while strolling in my wheelchair (I just put spinners on it).

[wavin_goodbye]

I would be Laurier..

[afronaut]

i dont think people should be allowed to appoint themselves a president. someone else has to do it.




Until someone appoints me as someone different, I'm Kennedy, because he had sex with Marilyn Monroe.

[DroppinScience]

Pardoning Nixon (I guess in this case... Lopprofessor?) cost you your presidency, though.

You're just worshipped, Echewta. And you're such a strong leader (thus why you're always a poll option, no matter what), you'd totally lead us through whatever war comes our way.

[Qdrop]

fuck that.
you're Coolidge, you slacker.

[DroppinScience]

If nobody chooses a President for me, I'm goin' with Eisenhower. :cool:

I ain't down with a BBMB military industrial complex...

You sir, are Dwight Eisenhower (spelling?).

He was the bomb before he was president.

[Echewta]

:( I don't want to lead this board in a war.

I'll just go along with the fact that I've been here awhile and like the term thing an all.

[monkey]

i'm jefferson. founding pimp :cool:

Hey Tex,

You can be Ronald Reagen.

[DroppinScience]

Nah, as cool as Ike was, I think I'd be like Carter. A gosh-darn nice guy and honorable, but his downfall is the dirty tactics of his political enemies...

[beastiegirrl101]

can I be Jackie O?

[TAL]

Funny how you guys seem to think there's only American presidents.

[Yorkshire~Rose]

I see myself more as Socks the cat.

[DroppinScience]

REALLY??? :eek:

[Tone Capone]

Are there any others that matter??? :confused:

[Echewta]

You never see a commercial where a guy is the President of Sofas or Big Screen TVs.

[jabumbo]

how about FDR?

[avignon]

I wanna be Chief Little Wolf. In which case, my approval rating among the Native Americans would be extremely high but not so high among the US millitary.

[Medellia]

Pshaw, I'm not a President. I'm Monica Lewinsky. :rolleyes:

[GetYourWarOn]

38%

[GetYourWarOn]

^^^Van Buren

[jabumbo]

Pshaw, I'm not a President. I'm Monica Lewinsky. :rolleyes:

[Medellia]

:eek: He totally IS!!!

[QueenAdrock]

Not a President. Herbert Hoover was a Prez, though.

Yeah, he's my great-grandfather's cousin. I have a vague resemblance to him. :-/

Um. Hmm. I call Mayor Quimby if he hasn't been taken yet. Ich ben ein Springfielder. (y)

Or Carol Mosley-Braun. I don't think she'd make a very good President (a wee bit *too* liberal), but she's got some good ideas.

[DroppinScience]

would all of this imply that droppin is ken starr?

Wouldn't I be Al Gore? :eek:

[Medellia]

Wouldn't I be Al Gore? :eek:
Wait, you want to be the one to "lose" to Dubya? Okaaay. :confused:

[popcorn girl]

As a social studies teacher i am totally appalled as to what you all think is a president, some of your responses are not even close to what a president is

so maybe someone can specify what a president is

is it an actual president of the United States of America or who you would like the president to be

[avignon]

Most presidents have no clue as to what an actual president is either.

Looks like I just flunked your class cause I have no clue what the fuck you're talking about. :p

This thread is really meant to say: "Pick whatever President that reflects your own popularity to this message board..."

What more do you need, teach? :rolleyes:

Well some people have picked people who weren't President (like me, Monica) I think that's what she was talking about. Of course, I think MOST of them were jokes.

Thank you at least someone listened in class

[roosta]

im Grand Ayatollah Khomeini!

[TAL]

Idi Amin was a wild guy. I'm not quite up to his standards though.

[Pres Zount]

What the fuck is this thread? What would our aproval ratings be? I mean, really.

Come on. Really.

What the fuck?

[RobMoney]

the Kenneth Starr years.


since when does that jackass get "years" named after him?

[Rancid_Beasties]

I'd be Gough Whitlam. After gaining an unasailable lead in the election he basically put forward all these groundbreaking changes to legislation before he was even declared the official winner :D

"Unwilling to wait, Whitlam, as soon as the overall result was beyond doubt, had himself and Deputy Leader Lance Barnard sworn in as a two-man government, holding all the portfolios between them"

He abolished university fees and made it free provided you got the marks to get in. He set up links with communist countries like china at a time during the cold war when nobody else would. He introduced single parent family benefits, abolished the death penalty, reduced the voting age from 21 (i think) to 18, abolished the last remnants of the "white australia policy", fought for equal opportunity for women (at least in governmental positions) & established an aboriginal affairs committee. He was an allround good guy except for the fact that he "allowed" east timor to be butchered by Indonesia because he wanted to establish links with Indonesia.

[adam_f]

I would be Millard Fillmore. As if he really did anything.

[Documad]

John Quincy Adams.

[Tone Capone]

I'm Gerald Ford. Never elected as Pres or Vice but, still ended up rocking the Presidential pajama's... and my wife is a junky (y)

Now I'm dead.:(

[TOY]

John Quincy Adams.

I actually won as him in a 6th grade election!

[Justin]

I'd be Dana Carvey.

[QueenAdrock]

I call Ted Kennedy! I don't care that he's not president, because alcohol + liberalism = teh awesome (y)

CHOWDAH! SAY IT, FRENCHIE!

[kleptomaniac]

I'd be Dana Carvey.

then i'd be your first lady :D


even though i can do almost every dana carvey impression known to man...not as well as he can of course.

[Dorothy Wood]

Richard Nixon, cuz I sweats a lot. :(

[QueenAdrock]

^sweat or swear?

well both are right.

[Dorothy Wood]

both. I mean. I don't really sweat that much. I was just trying to be funny. HEY YOU STOP ASKING SO MANY QUESTIONS!

[icy manipulator]

boris yeltsin. well at least he has the same birthday as me and he drank alot of vodka :(

[Justin]
