    Captain planet.

    Maybe we’d finally actually do something about climate change and for an extra special bonus we get to see him kick the shit out of the likes of the Koch’s and whatever demon spawn runs Nestle.

    Side note: mufasa is my namesake! I’m just so super creative and ran it backwards lol

        He is summoned after the election results by force of law and then he isn’t allowed to disappear until his term is up.

        Not summoning a duly elected captain planet is punishable by no less than 6 years arguing against fox news propagandists and a fine of 3,600 dark chocolate bars paid to me personally. The impact of cocoa production on the environment would be an extra screw turn, forcing their hand.

      I don’t think he’d want the job, but he would do it were he asked and give it 110%. He’s no nonsense, a facts-based decision maker, and he listens to people’s issues and makes fair decisions if it’s what you want to hear or not. He’s also not too full of himself to admit when he’s been wrong. He seeks out experts on matters outside of his experience and respects their opinions. He loves his country and looks to do right by those that entrust him with a job.

      He would also probably be unfortunately remembered as a terrible president a la Jimmy Carter, as he’d likely trust a number of people he shouldn’t to keep their word, he’d be too compromising for a lot of people, and I don’t think people would like his “lack of personality” they’d get from his public persona. I think Hank would be a top-notch cabinet member though! I would totally support him for any of a number of different ones.

    Scrooge McDuck (Duck Tales version). Dude knows how to manage people and balance a budget. Sure he might occasionally get obsessed with some treasure in the middle east but that’s no different than most presidents.

    Do comic books count? If yes I’d say Spider Jerusalem from Transmetropolitan. If no, General Hunter Gathers from Venture Bros or Dale Gribble from King of the Hill. Maybe Uncle Duke from Doonesbury.
