Top Ten Best Trek Characters for Public Office
10. Picard: He's got that "distinguished statesman" look to him already.
9. Nanite #356-24-53C: Would be able to rig elections by messing with the tally computers. Also too small for anyone to hear it, so it could make the most ridiculous campaign promises and then afterwards claim that its translator misunderstood it.
8. Kirk: Just to hear him say "[i
ost_uid0]BUUUUUUUUUSSSHH![/i
ost_uid0]" at the televised debate
7. Janeway: Mulgrew's already had some experience with politics.
6. Wesley Crusher: His opponent would have an easy win, and he would be too busy to be on TNG.
5. Bob the tribble: He can rig elections by spawning dozens of die-hard supporters at a moment's notice. Plus he's got more charisma and cuteness than the average politician. Probably smarter too.
4. Spock: His logic would overwhelm the political system. This alone would be no small accomplishment.
3. Morn: He would break the "all politicians lie" stereotype. The fact that he would never tell the truth either is insignificant.
2. Odo: He could achieve the career politician's dream of being all things to all people.
1. Abraham Lincoln: Hah, thought I would forget about him didn'tcha?
