That is hilarious. I actually laughed out loud. (Good thing no one else is in the office right now.) I'd vote for the ensign, and hey, I'm not even American!
Wow that was a bizarre start to my morning! I saved that site as a favorite too.
Thanks for pointing and laughing as I hit submit twice yesterday. I promise not to do it again.
I thought that was going to be a war movie with an ethnically diverse platoon who start out as enemies but eventually form a cohesive fighting unit under the leadership of their gruff but loveable Sgt.
Loveable Sgt - R Lee Ermey
Shell-shocked Lt. - Grady Little
The Italian kid from NYC - Wesley Crusher
I betcha that whole "stopping-time" ability would really come in handy during presidential debates. If Lehrer asked Wesley a question he didn't know the answer to, he could pause time, go research the topic, and come back and slam Bush with tons of facts.
Plus, I'd like to know my President could perform a Kolvord Starburst.
WOOO! Wesley has my vote! Considering he's probably considered a boy genius compared to certain politicians these days, he'd be an excellent prez!! And he's a traveller!
*strokes chin thoughtfully* Maybe this isn't a bad idea after all...
Hmmm... how about Cha-Ka from Land of the Lost. That way not only does Wesley have the space/future constituent, but he also picks up the earth/past one as well! It's gold, Jerry, gold!
Either that or Lando Calrissian. Trekkies and Star Wars fans coming together for a common goal, the utter decimation of His Excellency Global Potentate GW!
ugh... it makes me want to puke and laugh at the same time. and i'm sorry wil, but the wesley head on the shoulders in the top bar is grossly over-sized, and makes wesley look even more freakish. dig.
Wesley to save the day! He gets my vote! Mr. Crusher certainly looks good in a suit. He'll do very well in D.C. though with Quark in the "Who We Are" section leaves one to wonder what else will be unveiled....
Cool. An awful lot of work for a site with only one link. Hope they add more. I gotta admit, you (Wil) might be a little too scary running this country. But Wesley? Yeah, I think I might vote for him :)
why in the universe would wesley crusher want to be president of the united states...the press would have a field day with his maquis sympathizer past...and there is other dirty linen out there that wesley would not want the press to investigate.

Yes, the past comes out in the wash. Wesley would have to be prepared for questions about his private life. It's par for the course. Although, if it was between Wesley Crusher and Sam Beckett....extremely tough call.
LOL!! "After Crusher finished his arcane training in the mysteries of space and time with The Traveler, he decided that the only challenge left was to take on American politics."
Vote for Crusher! He won't just make contact with aliens, he'll repair their warp drive cores!
Who did that site? Was it Will in an attempt to start something? Has all this policital correspondant business set off machiavellian plots and desires?
Haha! Hilarious! If Wesley had ran, I think he would have had a chance. Damn, and there I went and wasted my vote on the green party. Alright, cool site, btw!
Hmm...well I suppose that (a) he'd be a good promoter of the underfunded space programme (b) he can't be worse than you american's current president and (c) If he promised to build public holodecks who *wouldn't* vote for him?
As is says in the Dilbert future book "the human race will become extinct when holodecks are built and become cheaper than regular dating"

Okay, Wil. That does it.
While we're fiddling with the Constitution, we might as well take care of that age requirement for President....

No reason to change no constitution, all Wil has to do is wait four years. It would be nice to have him as President now, but it can wait...
Posted by: John | October 17, 2003 08:32 AM
It's not ME. It's WESLEY.
And he can do whatever he wants, because he's from space AND the future.

Too bad those links are not hot. I'd love to see what's behind the "Join a Crusher Hookup Chapter" link.
Those pictures of lil Wil (playing Wesley) crack me up. Such fresh-faced innocence...

You could brand yourself as

Now wait a minute, if it's between Sam Beckett and Wesley Crusher... I gotta go with Sam (though NOT Cap'n Archer). "Oh boy," indeed.

Looks like ol' Wesley is like Ahnuld at the moment; he doesn't seem to have any comment on the issues either.
Posted by: Bullwinkle | October 19, 2003 09:10 PM
Go Uncle Willie!!!
It's about time we got a real person to run. At least I know who Wil Wheaton is. But who will be his running mate?
Picard?
Riker?
Worf?
Kirk?
Scotty?
Bones?
Spock...Yeah, Spock!
Crusher and Spock in '04.
I can see it now...
