Revelations from the Edge

Why Victoria and Frank from the movie RED should lead the Nation!

Real-life politicians often leave much to be desired. So how about we take a much needed detour into the land of satire in politics and political humor.

Revolutionary Idea

Why not elect movie characters instead? I already know that Frank Sinatra and Elvis are viable options because they’ve been my write-in candidates for the last two elections.

So surely Victoria Winslow and Frank Moses from the movie RED could lead the nation to greatness.

Let’s take a look at their political platform, because who needs political maneuvering when you’ve survived multiple assassination attempts?

Leadership Skills

Forget empty promises and political posturing. Victoria and Frank have demonstrated genuine leadership qualities, from strategic thinking to inspiring loyalty in their team.

Not just because they could take down anyone who disagrees, but because they embody the kind of fictional leaders we can all get behind.

Teamwork

In a world of partisan politics, Victoria and Frank know the value of teamwork. No more gridlock in Congress when you have the ultimate definition of a Power Couple.

Imagine the headlines: “Movie Character Leadership Revolutionizes Politics!”

Problem Solving Abilities

Facing a national crisis? Victoria and Frank thrive under pressure, finding creative solutions to complex problems faster than you can say “diversionary cover fire.”

It’s like watching Hollywood politics unfold on the big screen, but with real-world impact.

Adaptability

Whether it’s navigating a gunfight or a diplomatic summit, Victoria and Frank can adapt to any situation. They bring movie-inspired leadership that makes scripted responses look outdated.

Integrity

In an era of scandals and corruption, Victoria and Frank bring a refreshing dose of honor and integrity to the table.

Plus, with the help of duct tape and vise grips, they can also give “special instruction” to people who forgot the definition of those two words.

Diplomacy

Tired of diplomatic gaffes? Victoria and Frank have a knack for handling delicate situations with dignity, propriety, and finesse, ensuring that international relations remain smooth and 95% explosive-free. Now that’s what I call pop culture diplomacy.

Resilience

From surviving various types of regime changes to handling multiple moving targets, Victoria and Frank have proven time and again that they can bounce back from adversity stronger than ever.

Commitment to Justice

Equal rights, fairness, and justice for all citizens? It’s not just a campaign slogan for Victoria and Frank, it’s a core principle that comes in assorted calibers.

Bonus!

Marvin Boggs would be named Secretary of State!

Who better to handle delicate international negotiations than a man who’s one part genius, one part eccentric, and all parts unforgettable?

Just don’t talk about cell phones or satellites and don’t make any sudden moves.

So, the next time you’re faced with uninspiring political candidates, remember: Victoria, Frank, and Marvin may be fictional characters, but their leadership qualities are all too real. Maybe it’s time to bring a little movie magic to the White House.
