(not who would you WANT it to be. I'd say Springsteen on that one.)

18. THIS
He was almost mayor of San Francisco in the 1980s. I could see him being president one day.

he'll emerge from behind the counter at that 7-Eleven in Kalamazoo just in time for the 2012 primaries. Bank on it. You heard it here first.

edit: But will the FReepers demand to see his death certificate??

14. People would actually vote for Jon Bon Jovi. Or Springsteen.
We could probably do worse.

I'd like to see Adam Yauch from the Beastie Boys or Tim McIllrath from Rise Against.

The lunatic in me would like Zach de la Rocha, though.

15. Does Art Garfunkel count as a "rock star?"
If not, I'm sticking with Zombie Zappa.

16. Tom Morello / Trent Reznor 2012
Those two seem like they're the most knowledgeable politically when it comes to current events. And they can both fuckin' rock the house too.
