Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, known to many as an actor and hulk of a human being, may be expanding his horizons in the near future. On Friday, he tweeted,

Cool piece on why I should run for President. Maybe one day. Surely the White House has a spot for my pick up truck.

To which we all say, "Fawk yas." All this dude needs is a spot for his pickup truck and he's good to go. If there's something more American than that, I'd like to know what that is.

While The Rock is a registered Republican, he's attended both parties' conventions, so you know he's down to cross that aisle. As of now, we don't know what policies he's into -- if any -- but we do know he eats massive amounts of cod and can lift heavy things.

That's more than we're asking of our current Republican candidates; so, really, there's no reason not to give Dwayne The Rock Johnson a go. And how good does this sound: #TheRock2020.

As long as he's not running against someone more qualified, he's definitely got my vote.
