Default Sean Penn For President?

I don't know whether Sean Penn has considered running for political office. There have been actors who have gotten into politics. If you listen to some of the stuff he says, he sounds like he really knows what he's talking about. I like his idea that any journalist in the US that calls Hugo Chavez a dictator, should be put in jail. I'd like to see Penn in a position of power in the Democratic party. The party could use a thoughtful, articulate spokesman such as Penn.

the guy can't even communicate a complete thought at the oscar's sunday night. "both the academy and i have neglected acknowledging a certain actress". and now i'll move on to the actual nominees. wtf? am i supposed to pull out my sean penn decoder ring?

the difference between a liberal idiot and a conservative idiot is that one will make millions in the movies and make the occasional embarrassing comment while the other gets nominated for vice president.

Penn would be warmly embraced by many on the left, as he exemplifies everything they admire. By all means he should start a PAC and run for president.

As I am sure there are Republicans that you wish would go away, there are Dems that I wish would go away as well.

In the movie spoof Trropic Thunder, Kirk Lazarus(Robert Downey,Jr.) described how an actor playing a mentally handicapped individual should approach the role. He said, "You never go full ******, man".

Against the conventional wisdom of Kirk Lazarus, Sean Penn has successfully assumed such roles in his professional career on a couple of occasions and has earned much deserved critical acclaim.

Unfortunately for Sean Penn, he has assumed the role of full ****** in his personal life on far too many occasions to less than stellar reviews among the general public.

The hollywood folks who like to pretend to be experts in the political arena, especially this clown need to remember one thing, they are simply Court Jesters. They entertain us and that's it. Stick to acting Sean.
