At Huffington Post, they have a slideshow of actors who have played presidents over the years, and then an option to vote for your favorites. Right now, the #1 favorite is Martin Sheen, which isn't really a surprise, since HuffPo readers are liberal and Sheen played the most lovable, defiantly liberal fictional president ever. Right?
Not exactly.
What none of the geniuses who voted for Sheen managed to notice is that the character up for voting is actually the psychotic douchebag with ambitions of starting WWIII in the film The Dead Zone, not the principled, decent and courageous Josiah Bartlett of The West Wing.
Way to go, HuffPo readers! Way to refute all of those rumors about progressives being smart.
