Probably Palpatine. If you kept to the party line, I doubt life is too bad for you.

I'd say Lama Su. Sure, Palpatine brought order to the area he ruled, but so did Hitler when he took power. Amidala is hot, but not when wearing all that makeup that makes her look more like a life-sized porceilan doll. I'm not sure about the others, since I really don't know them.

Amidala, she's the only one that I know of that's not evil. Lama Su and Gorkon might be decent but we know next to nothing about them.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Out of those above, I'd say Lama Su.


My choice though, would be Casval Rem Daikun AKA Char Aznable.

I once made a poster saying "Godzilla for President: So what if he's a foreigner?" I drove my friends crazy with that.

"Bush!"
"Gore!"
"Godzilla!!"

Seeing as how I had to put up with Thatcher as Prime Minister, I'd love to have a leader who'd I'd actualy want so my votes with Amidala.

By the way, I thought that this poll would be a little better if Leia Organa was an option.

Amidala. She is a good looking chick, that is reason enough for me.

How about yoda for president? I mean, who couldn't love a short little green guy running a universal community? (ignore the fact that he "died", we all know it was just a "jedi hidding trick", like elvis did)

No he would... no, wait, that was Anzable, that was different group of Zeon forces...

As to this deabte, I would ahve to go with what I had picekd when I originally did a servey of "Who would you like for president?"

LEt me try ot think of who I had in the running...

Napolean, Stalin, Hitler, Alan Keyes, Cthulhu... There were a few others, but you should ge thte basic idea.

Cthulhu won, with around 60% of the vote, the rest going to either Stalin, Keyes, or one of the other candidates. I think it might have been Ventura, but I'm not sure.

Why exactly Cthulhu?? Azathoth would be far more entertaining as a president.

My vote would go for any Culture Hubmind or GSV Mind. Probably not a GCU ( Grey Area comes in mind - e could use the functionnal parts of eir personal museum on eir political opponents :twisted: :shock: ), and by no means a ROU, LOU or GOU.

Not only would e bring us Culture level tech, but e would be an awesome leader, with hyperbright level consciousness, and this kind of Mind is fond of us, the mortals.

Definately the best leader you can imagine ( except e would laugh at our societies, and quickly rise a new, perfect social order... ).

Unless e went Eccentric...
