In your opinion, who do you think played an uncanny resemblance to an actual president/presidential candidate, or a good portrayal of one in a comedy or other?

Bruce Greenwood(minus the accent)as JFK in THIRTEEN DAYS
Dan Hedaya as Richard Nixon in DICK
John Travolta as Gov. Jack Stanton in PRIMARY COLORS

others
Kevin Kline in DAVE
Harrison Ford in AIR FORCE ONE
Anthony Hopkins in NIXON
Martin Sheen in television's WEST WING

Can you name as many actors who played a president?

Martin Sheen looks like a pretty good president.

I like Martin Sheen too. Travolta is a joke across all genres. Michael Douglas did a good job too, in the American President.

lets not forget Bill Pulman from Independance Day. His speech to the troops before they flew out was awesome. Also, Morgan Freeman from Deep Impact. If I wanted a black president hed be y choice, second to sam jackson of course. Speaking of black presidents, Tiny Lister was the president in The Fifth Element

Richard Crenna was a good Ronald Reagan in "The Day Reagan Was Shot"

Anthony Hopkins rules the role of Nixon.
