The GOP seems to have more celebrities in its ranks, which is funny because everyone says Hollywood skews Democrat. Besides Trump, you've got Reagan, but also billionaires and CEOs like Cain, Fiorina, and Forbes, who are sort of celebrities in the sense that they're non-governmental public figures. And Schwarzenegger could have been one of them, if it wasn't for the Constitution.

Even for celebrities who aren't actually politicians, you have rumors like Joe Scarborough being Trump's running mate, or Mike Ditka running against Obama for the Illinois Senate seat in 2004.

So besides Al Franken, did/does/will the Democrats have any celebrity star power as actual elected officials? Any that could one day run for president?

Republican celebrities make it happen while Democrat celebrities in Hollywood sit around and whine while polluting our environment in their gulf stream jets carrying them around the world so they can self gloat about pollution caused by themselves.  See things can be phrased different ways.  Having said that, no celebrity Democrats aren't taken seriously by anyone old enough to vote.

Ben Affleck is older than I thought he was.  I was under the impression he'd be 40 this year.  He has no political credentials and not even in any real private sector experience.  He'd be a little more qualified than Obama was in 2008 but not by much.
