Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Wants To Be President??
An actor running for president? That's crazy, right?! Maybe not. Depending on your age, you may remember a guy named Ronald Reagan. Actor & bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger served as governor of California. A pro wrestler, Jesse "the Body" Ventura once served as governor of Minnesota. Another star is apparently about to toss his hat into the ring. USA Today reports actor Dwayne Johnson, perhaps better known as "The Rock," wants to be president. The 45 year old star of "Welcome to the Jungle" told the magazine he's seriously considering a run for the White House in 2020. When questioned about running as a Republican or Democrat, the Rock's response was "You’re pushing it — right now, I'm an independent."
