Charlie Sheen: '100%' of People I've Polled Want Me to Run for President

In an interview with comedian and talk show host Michael Loftus, actor Charlie Sheen, a self-proclaimed “constitutional Republican,” suggested he run for the Oval Office in 2016. 

When asked what three laws Sheen would pass as “king of America” for a day, the former Two and a Half Men star replied,

“Skilled vets in front of our schools, that have been vetted. Right? Um, ten-percent tax across the board. In times of recession, inflation, whatever, you’d fluctuate state taxes. The third would be just stop it – everybody relax… Put the Constitution back into place.”

Oh, wow.

He continued,

“I’m a constitutional Republican. I believe in a Constitution, you know? Look at what we went through to write that document.”

“I’ve run my own polls like out in the field. Just like 10 guys, but whatever… But in every scenario… when I say to people, hey, what if I run for President? It’s a hundred-percent.”

After all, he has had experience playing the role of U.S. President in the 2013 action movie Machete Kills.

Sheen went on to say that, if he were to run for the White House in real life, he would choose his father, Martin Sheen, as his VP, who famously played the President of the United States in NBC's West Wing

“It would be Sheen and Sheen 2016, running on a platform of truth and transparency,” he said. 

Ironically, after the news regarding Brian Williams’ six-month suspension broke, Sheen offered the former NBC “Nightly News” anchor a pardon for his lack of truth and transparency, calling Williams a long-time “true Patriot and "Hero” of his.

He wrote,

“Dear Mr. Williams,

Sorry to bother you during this most surreal, unjust and mercurial moment in your awesome life.

First off, THANK YOU, for 24 years of inimitable professionalism and top shelf brilliance, as a stone cold passion driven and (PERFECTLY) fact based journalist.

Secondly, Thank you “squared” for delivering not only the news on a nightly basis, (PERFECTLY) to myself and my family. But for every other person alive, (with a TV) who relied and still do, on your poetic, insightful and NOBLE sacrifices, that made our longest nights shorter, and our shortest nights safer. You good sir, are a hero in my ‘Entire Library’

Lastly; you are clearly the victim of a transparent and vile witch hunt! Erroneously
“staged” by hooligans, non coms, cowards and oligarchs, who’s only desperate and hideous goal is to discredit the genius that they relied on for almost 3 decades!

Now and forever you are a true Patriot and a Hero of mine until the day i leave this star crossed imperfect Rock we call Earth…

Mr W: respect, love, hi 5’s, and refuge! (if you need it!) I remain humbly and on dangerous standby at your service….

I am;

the MaSheen….”

With his track record, it’s hard to tell whether “the MaSheen” was being sarcastic there.
