I'd say about 10% at this point.
'Run the Rock 2020' forms to draft Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson for president
'Run the Rock 2020' forms to draft Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson for president
quote:
A campaign committee has formally filed to draft actor and former WWE wrestler Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson for president.
“Run the Rock 2020,” the name of the official organization, was filed on behalf of Johnson with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on Sunday, according to FEC records.
The paperwork was filed by a man named Kenton Tilford under a West Virginia address. Tilford's connection to Johnson and his motivation for filing the organization is not clear.
Johnson has long joked about a White House bid, playing a buff Obama on "Saturday Night Live" and standing in front of podium labeled “The Rock Johnson 2020” on the show in May. But he revealed earlier this year that his run is “a real possibility.”
In an interview with GQ in May, he spoke about how he would take on Trump’s policies, adding that he would like to see better leadership, responsibility and “poise” from the Oval Office.
The actor spoke at the Republican National Convention in 2000 and attended the Democratic National Convention the same year. He has said that he is registered as an Independent.

I personally think Dee Snyder has a better chance, albeit only marginally.

I have no idea about his political views but he seems to be a really really awesome person. Not a bad thing was said about his behavior and actions around town when he was filming Baywatch. Hard to do in a smaller city that loves to gossip.
Considering shia lebuf's dumbass made it like 2 nights into filming before getting arrested and a bad rep

0.0001% he'll get crushed in the debates.

He considers himself an independent but had spoken at the Pub convention.

Dwayne Johnson never comes off as a prick. He's a very likable guy.

I could only imagine the greatness that would come from him addressing lil kim.

He'll get the Bern treatment.
If he was smart, and I think he is, he will wait and run in 2024 when there might be an opening.

I like The Rock, I think he has an incredible story of success and is a great role model for our children today.
That being said, he should stay as far away from politics as possible. Do your public service through your charities. Don't ruin your image with a much more conservative generation that is coming up behind these idiotic millennials.

I honestly think that the *Black* person for Prez fad has worn down, GP; so Rock would get no advantage there other than the hard Left (BLM) types. A lot of Christian Blacks will be pleased with the work Trump does for them/their neighborhoods.
That aside, the Rust Belt rules.
And don't forget to factor in all the ILLEGALS that won't be registering for fear of being on record and in Trump/Sessions data base.
All aside, I don't know Rock/his Politics...but there is always hope and a real need for any Black to step up and mitigate the Racial damage done by Obama's divide and conquer politics.

It's a publicity stunt. The Rock's not running and Tom " David S. Pumpkins" Hanks will not be his running mate.

0%. The establishment D's won't let it happen. Bernie was stupid popular but they decided it was Hillary's turn. They won't learn from their mistake and will prop up someone who they think should be the candidate.

I'd vote for him just because he's so damn likable. But being he's a Hollywood type, he probably leans left.

You mean in the early debates? Possibly. All he has to do is take a page from the Trump blueprint and rouse a bunch of attention beforehand and he'll be fine. When it comes to the R v. D debate... it's become quite clear that it's impossible to lose those. The R's think the R candidate won, the D's think the D candidate won.

My fat thumb down-voted you instead of up-voting you. Mea culpa.
