Contest: ENTER SciFi/F Av contest: Vote for President!

[auntiehill]

Which SciFi/Fantasy character would you like to lead your country/planet? Who would get your vote? Any scifi, fantasy character that has leadership characteristics/would be a good leader/ takes care of his/her people will qualify. Some examples: Rick from TWD, Superman, Tyrion, Roslin, etc. Standard av rules apply: work/Google safe and 200 x 200 pixels max, 1 MB max.

You may enter up to three. I will only enter two, since I won last time. The poll will go up on the 19th, or thereabouts.

Put forth your candidates!

Kerr Avon from Blake's 7:

I love Avon with all my heart. He's one of the coolest characters EVER. But.... he'd be a terrible president. LOL

 

[Kai "the spy"]

Since you mention it, Jareth is a rather dubious choice, as well. I mean, he really mistreats his subjects, he kidnaps little babys, and then there's the dom/sub flirting with teenagers.

 

[Orac]

Fake news! That movie was total fiction.

Remember that election when you only had two choices and they were both terrible?

 

[the G-man]

No. 3.

Conan, Conan the Barbarian

It might depend on how many non-Americans vote in the poll. While I personally don't think any superhero would really make a good political leader (if billionaires are out-of-touch with the concerns of the average citizen, how do you think it's going to be for someone with superpowers?), in that case specifically, I doubt someone who basically wears a version of the American flag as their costume would be unbiased enough to represent my own country as a leader.

OK, thread closed. The poll will go up very soon.
