Jerry Springer says he'd run for President if drafted

[Tony_FLADEM]

Jerry Springer is prepared to be president of the United States.

The one-time mayor of Cincinnati, who has spent the last 25 years hosting one of the United States' most famous talk shows, said it would be unlikely and even "ludicrous" to consider but that he would serve if a "Draft Jerry" movement gained enough steam.

"OK, I'll run," he told Mic. "My passion has always been political. I am still active."

1. I like Jerry. He's quite liberal and intelligent when he's not hosting

his horrible shows. However, I hope he's not planning to run as a democrat.

2. Me too ! Heard him speak at a democrat affair and he's quite brilliant. nt

3. he is smart....and a good liberal...

but, I don't think there's gonna be any "draft Jerry" movement happening. Sounds like a goof on a certain republican, to me...

4. Jerry has always been a Democrat

I hope he's learned his lesson and will pay his prostitutes in cash, not with a personal check.

Springer was considered a potential candidate for OH Senate a while back but declined to run.

5. Jerry is smart and liberal.

He used to work for Bobby Kennedy's campaign.

I also like the fact that he makes no excuses for his TV show being a stupid show. He readily admits he's chicken and stays away from his fighting guests.

6. If the media starts eating it up it could be a good thing

because he could insult the crap out of Trump and get away with it. This could cause a media frenzy and turn Trumps Circus into a complete madhouse so absurd he ends up a laughing stock.
