In my productive Saturday afternoon, I got the chance to watch the movie, “Air Force One.” I’ve seen it before, but obviously, I don’t mind watching it again. And from watching it, I gotta admit–Harrison Ford would be one bad-ass president. I mean, afterall, he’s not just the President, he’s Indiana Jones. Think about it. Air Force One gets taken over by terrorists. Harrison Ford hides in the “basement” and works against the terrorists by beating up anyone that comes down there and dumping fuel. When he gets captured, the movie shows he’s still human by “negotiating with terrorists” when they threaten to kill his daughter. (And, in the process, they count up to 5 before they shoot her. I think it’s cool that the terrorist barely says 2 before Harrison Ford says he’ll do it. No question when it comes to his daughter being in trouble) In the process of it all, he’s flying a plane, he’s beating up people left and right and he dangles from another plane by a mere cord. Of course, there is also always the cool line of “Get off my plane!” and a woman vice president in Glenn Close who kicks ass as the 2nd in command.

Can you picture President Bush doing this? Or Clinton? Or Daddy Bush? No way. Actually, I can’t think of any president in my lifetime that would be like that in the face of pressure. I laugh when I think of Clinton trying to talk meanly to someone he doesn’t like.

So yeah, just had to share. Harrison Ford, we’ll take you as our president anytime. Ok, well, at least in that situation.
