Challenge: President Glenn Beck

Han

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to send Glenn Beck to the White House.

Conditions:
-Glenn Beck must have the same views that he has now (and it must be known that he has these views)
-Glenn Beck must be elected in a "fair" election (meaning he doesn't just win because of a split in the Democratic Party in a 1912-like situation). He must win 270+ electoral votes, so no sending the election to the House
-Bonus points if he wins 50%+ of the popular vote.
-Bonus points if you can get Glenn Beck into the White House with no more experience than his show on Fox.
-Bonus points if you can get a Glenn Beck/Sarah Palin ticket into the White House.

.....And.....begin!

Have Sharon Angle run in and win the 2016 GOP primaries in an upset, have her pick Beck as her running mate.

Have the Democrats nominate Bernie Sanders/Chris Dodd, Obama is unpopular and the Democrats have a few scandels to shake them up.

Have Angle assassinated during one of the debates, live on television.

Glenn Beck picks Sarah Palin as his running mate as the Republicans mourn Angle's death.

Election night looks to be close and I prepare my noose if people are stupid enough to vote for the two major parties.

A Great Opportunity to Get President Glenn Beck

After the election of L. Neil Smith to the US Presidency, getting Glenn Beck to become PotUS is pathetically easy. Of course, when the 41st President of the United States is Jim_Jones the real hard part of turning the United States into a radical nightmare has already been done.

Glenn Beck, a protege of President Smith, seeks to continue the latter's political views in a presidency in his own right. He chooses war hero and Oklahoma Senator Timothy McVeigh as his Vice Presidential nominee.

Beck prevails over the Democratic Challenger, Richard Blagoyich by a small margin. The Presidency of Glenn Beck is honestly above average by the means of FaT: Beck is more pragmatic than Smith, and while he has his own views, he is outright moderate compared to the Helter-Skelter wing of the Republician Party. Beck wants to rule the United States in a state of tradition and a free market system, not cause it to melt into a pile of racial hatred.

Unfortunately, Beck is killed by Muslim Assassins under the order of Saudi Arabia's King Osama. President McVeighs response to the act isn't out of line in a world where several dozen weapons have already been launched...

A global depression during the Reagan Regime and a brief instance of war with the Soviets, which almost goes nuclear, caused by Reagan's alzheimer's forces a benevolent but incredibly unpopular temporary social-democratic council to take charge. Despite attempts to incorporate grass-roots democracy in their unelected bureaucracy, rebels kill anyone who participates for "collaboration". With lack of support and an inability to provide supplies to critical poverty areas due to rebel attacks and thefts, the Social-Democratic Council temporary administration is overthrown in a violent revolution by a coalition of several rival factions.

In the post-revolution chaos years as these factions turn on each other in the streets and the nation is essentially balkanized into early 20th century Chinese style clique-dominated territories, eventually a democratic system is put into place across the nation by a corrupt strongman who is deposed; allowing the election to then be free and open, as it is administrated by independent advisers agreed upon by all the major factions.

Seen as a moderate without the stain of factionalism or former government office on his hands, self-made entertainer and one-man-corporation Glenn Beck of the Libertarian Nationalist Party is elected.

If you want to have a clue of what a glenn beck white house would be, just watch his show. On his show he usually has between 1-4 chalkboards, so if he were president imagine how many chalkboards he could fit into the oval office, never the less the whole the white house.

im sure most of you here have heard of "sarapacolypse" so go to youtube and type that in and you will see the result of a palin/beck ticket.

American politics and culture would have to be utterly dominated by "Pure" Libertarianism and Evangelicanism for Beck to even have a chance.

Freaking nightmare. America must have seen the Cold war go hot. Millions have died and Glenn Beck and few Tea party type are all that is left.

I was wondring how long it would take for someone to mention good old For All Time.

About 4chan that would be twenty times better than Glenn Beck.

President 4chan would be honorable but quirky fellow. Dangerous to the ladies and disarming to the men, 4chan would be a better president than at least a third of the electorate.

STILL BETTER THAN GLENN BECK.

Beck may be crazy but he plays it up for the money. If he's president, there'd be no money for him to make in fear mongering.

Not that he wouldn't be bad, because he would be, but both the major parties have worse to offer than Beck in terms of bad idea presidents.
