    A fun president's thread.

    I wa thinking about all the movies where actors have played the President of the United States.

    Submit the movies and who played the President. Extra points for what the president's name was in the movie!

    One president per post.

    GO!

    I know three, but I'll let someone else start.

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    No humans were hurt during the posting of this message.

    "The American President"

    Micheal Douglas plays "President" Andrew Shepard. With West Wing "hero" Martin Sheen playing his Chief of Staff.

    Typical Hollywood take on things. Democrats are the heros and Republicans are the evil asshats.

    The whole, "and I will get the guns" line made me shiver. When I watched it the first time, I thought... "Come and get them, I DARE you." LOL

    Wag the dog
    one of my favorites. With Michael Belson as the President who has no name
    And with Robert De Niro and Dustin Hoffman in fantastic roles.

    I go back a ways

    RICHARD, I go back to the 30s and 40s. Raymond Massey played Abraham Lincoln in four different movies, the most famous was "Abe Lincoln in Illinois"

    Who could forget Independence Day where Bill Pullman plays the president? I can't remember the character's name since it's been so long since I've seen it.
