Move over Ron Paul, you're nothing now! A new candidate(and now the most popular one on the internet), dedicated to truthiness, has entered the race!
Stephen Colbert, beloved host of the Colbert Report has decided to enter the fray. Stephen Colbert just announced that he's officially considering whether he will announce that he's running for President of the United States The Daily Show!

A bit old, but awesome all the same.
Also, Cavern, he's only running in South Carolina*, so he can't win. I think it's awesome Doritos is sponsoring him. *On both Tickets :P |
Ron Paul and other candidates could have gotten. Ron Paul won't get any votes... |

Honestly, I think this is so stupid. He is a damn comedian, he knows nothing about running a country. That's kind of the point. |

Ron Paul is a big fat racist and everyone knows this! His support will consist of white supremacists and the ignorant!

L.O.L is stupid.
Jamesburrows speaks the truth. The president has to speak for the people. And he definetly does! :D FYI worldweaver, its Stephen! a true fan would know that! |

Comedians are surprisingly smart people.
And, I mean, look at everybody else that's running and has ran in the past few years. They're all just dirty politicians whose only skills come from what they learned in school and the military. I'd like someone in office that could bring creative solutions to our problems as they are dynamic problems that can't be solved with generic solutions. If Colbert were to seriously run and were eligable to run, he would have a very good chance of winning. That's what's good about celebrities (well, smart ones), is unlike the typical know-it-all that doesn't have the popularity or resources, they actually have a chance at winning. Sadly though someone like him would still probably lose unless they affiliated themselves with a party like the republicans. |
Colbert just isn't funny, though. He's floating on Stewart's success. If Stewart were to get out of the running (in showbiz, I mean), Colbert would go back to giving sexual favours in the gutter.

He should just stop now before he ruins the whole voting process. Anyone who votes for him is a fool.
