fav performance as president
 

Your favorite performance by an actor as the president?

Also rans:
Jack Nicholson (Mars Attacks), Jeff Bridges (The Contender),Gary Sinise(Truman), Donald Plesance (Escape from New York) Gene Hackman (Absolute Power) Tiny Lister Jr (Fifth Element ) Mel Brooks (Spaceballs:) )

Ronald Reagan didn't make the cut ;)

Darrell Hammond as Bill Clinton (does that count? :) )

Other:
President Lindberg in Fifth Element

I voted Peter Sellers in Dr. Strangelove.

Hopkins (nixon)

Donald Pleasance in Escape From New York.

"You're the Duke!" *ratatatatat* "AHAHAHAHA!"

President Muffley.

Dan Hedaya as Nixon in <i>Dick</i>

President Lindberg in Fifth Element <-- here here! Great choice!

I just watched "The Rock" the other day and I must say, the President in that has got to be one of the worst ever, heh. Just thought I'd mention....

Other: Philip Baker Hall as Nixon in "Secret Honor"

Harrison Ford (Air Force One)

For TV: Dennis Haysbert, hands down.

For Movies: Close call, but I have to go with Bruce Greenwood as John F. Kennedy in "Thirteen Days". I'm surprised no one else has mentioned him!!!

JACK IN MARS ATTACKS!!!!!!!
