If your favorite giant bomber were to run for president like Jeff, Ryan or another staff member, but they were running on the opposing political party would you still vote for them?
If they knew what they were talking about, didn't have any offensive positions, and didn't seem corrupt then maybe.
Regardless of party, I don't think any of those goofballs would be good in any sort of political position.
The political party affiliation wouldn't have anything to do with my vote. I would pick the person who I thought was right for the job.
I'd need to know their actual platform. What do they believe in? If they promise to toe the party line on either side, they're far less appealing than if they're being themselves.
I'd do it, not like it would really matter, they'd do jack like most other presidents and we'd move on.

Maybe that's why I've never voted.
As most people who live in California will tell you: no, I would not vote for someone as a haha imagine if he won president.
Absolutely Not.
I don't care about the Political party nonsense in the slightest. That's a suckers game sold to sheeple. Neither party cares a whit about the American people or what's in the country's best interests.
But the power, authority and responsibility of the Presidency is no joke. And frankly none of the Bombcrew despite being awesome duders is remotely qualified to be POTUS.
I don't think any of them would make good presidents. So no. Unless I thought the other guy was worse.
Only idiots base their vote purely by the party they run for. Platform > Party.
And no, I doubt I'd ever vote for any of the GB staff in any case.
People who vote by party only, rather than vote based off the politicians actual standings on issues that matter to them, are part of what goes wrong with the political system today.
As a joke and a vote of no confidence in our current political system I would vote for them.
Seriously though, I would never vote for them because I would not want to turn them into the dark husk of a human being that is a politician.
No, the only reason you should even belong to a certain political party in the first place is because it lines up with you ideologically. So if they were part of a party that's the polar opposite, why the fuck would you vote for them?
I'd vote for them because it'd be funny and hey they can't do any worse then any of the resent presidents we've had
Look, I like them a lot, I give them money every year because I like them, but I wouldn't want them running a country. Vinny's a great video producer, but I don't think those skills come in handy when dealing with Iran over nuclear weapons. Jeff's funny as all hell, but jokes aren't going to solve the problem with Social Security.
This is one of the problems with America - the desire to elect people "like them", people they can "have a beer with", people who aren't "elite". That is stupid - you want the MOST ELITE people to run a nation! I don't want my friends to run a country, I want the smartest damn person I can find to run a country. I don't want someone like me to be President or Prime Minister - I want someone LEAGUES ahead of me to be President or Prime Minister. I want someone so smart, so accomplished, so much better that compared to them I look like crap, to run my nation. I want the best and the brightest, and I'm not nearly arrogant enough to assume that I am the best or the brightest, or that the best and the brightest would be like me or my friends.
