Alec Baldwin
Alec Baldwin has been thinking about running for president for a long time. Just the other day, he retweeted this:

So there’s some call out there.
He’s been a vocal Democrat for years (Baldwin family holidays must be fun), and this year he’s had some choice words for Donald Trump on Twitter, like this little gem:
...@realDonaldTrump

You know what I would do if I were Prez? I'd be focused on how to improve the lives of AS MANY AMERICANS AS POSSIBLE.
The oldest Baldwin brother is dedicated to the ideals of the Democratic party. And he knows how to play the part. That’s the candidate we need.

Quotes:
"I wanted to be president of the United States. I really did. The older I get, the less preposterous the idea seems."
"Ultraconservatism is, to me, so illogical. Everywhere you go, conservatives want to cut, cut, cut, cut – cut money for powerless people. So, that’s the biggest problem I have with them."
"I feel I’m two people: I have my interest in acting and I have a lot of other political interests I’d like to pursue."
