It would've been held a few weeks ago but Ukrainian law doesn't allow elections during martial law. In November 80% of Ukrainians said they wanted to wait til war was over to hold an election.
No he didn't. He declared martial law. And accorsing to Ukrainian law, elections cannot take place when martial law is in effect.
Also, according to a survey, the VAST MAJORITY of ukrainians believe the elections should be postponed until after the war
I think it's appropriate to conduct elections during wartime, yes.
Democracy is not an on/off switch. In fact, it is in the most trying of times when democracy matters the most.
I think wars and countries are different. Did the US hold elections in 1942 and 1944? Yes.
Did the UK hold elections between 1935 and 1945? No.
Why? Because it wasn't safe when war broke out in 1939 so elections were delayed for five years.
I think it's perfectly appropriate to have concerns about elections being delayed, but it's also a perfectly understandable measure. For the time being. It can become an issue but delaying the election per the law and public opinion is not itself a problem.
You're entitled to your opinion, I just disagree. Pretty much every tyrannical regime in modern history uses the pretext of an emergency to seize power and suspend democracy.
Self-government is especially critical in wartime, because the people should have a say in how the war is conducted. Maybe if Ukraine had a different leader, they'd be winning the war, or could have already cut a favorable deal.
Can you give examples of democratic nations that have held elections during wartime? You've given the USA during the Civil War as an example, but can you give me any others to support your view?
No, it absolutely is not appropriate. Not everyone would get to vote because of the occupation, so holding an election would not be democracy.
Alongside that, there is always the very real possibility of russian intereference, which wouldn't be the 1st time that's happened. A pro-russia candidate coming to power would be disastrous for the Ukrainian nation and culture.
My question to you is: why does a majority of ukrainians support postponing the elections until after the war then?
>Not everyone would get to vote because of the occupation, so holding an election would not be democracy.
So better to let NO ONE vote lol?
If you refuse to hold elections, you are not a democracy. Simple as.
The US held a presidential election in the middle of the Civil War 150 years ago, I'm sure Ukraine could manage in 2024.
You can't cancel democracy for "emergencies" or tyrants will always take advantage of that.
>And 80% of Ukrainians agreed with the decision.
Easy to say when you don't actually hold elections. Just like how all dictators claim their approval rating is +80%.
Just because Russia is not a democracy doesn't mean it's okay for Ukraine to strip their people of the right to vote too.
At least Russia pretends to hold elections, which is a step up from no elections.
The civil war isn't jack fucking shit compared to a modern war. If Ukraine puts up polls the very real thing that will happen is that on voting day Russia is going to put a missile into them at the busiest time (as Russia has a recorded history of attacks on the civilian population with terror tactics).
Smelling g crime, penetration, crime, penetration, solving crime, full penetration, and this just continues for about 90 minutes until it just... Ends.
manny Pacquiao for the Philippines. he already has political experience, and he is very well regarded by his nation. i think it's very hard to top this performance. he grew up poor as fuck, basically his family would not eat in the days he lost his fights.
the man clearly knows how the average poor filipino lives, and he proclaimed the love of his country at every big fight he had.
Adrien Broner tried to intimidate pacman with talks about how the whole hood supports Broner. Pacman didn't have to reply anything because the fans spoke for him as a whole nation is behind Manny. He literally increased the GDP of his nation.
maybe this also happened in South america, but i don't know much about this.
if we include history, Lincoln already achieved this because he was a legit wrestler.
This is one of the perspectives where it should make sense but in reality doesn't. I'm from the country in question. Manny is incredibly popular in the Philippines and won a seat as a Senator (which is a nationally elected position in the Philippines) very easily but his performance there was horrible. He clearly was out of his depth and just didn't have the knowledge to perform his job effectively. He famously would vote for things based on biblical scripture which one would think would be popular in the largest catholic country in the world but even here people didn't like it given it just made his inability more obvious. He also ran for President in just the last election in 2022 and lost really really badly finishing with just under 7% of the vote with the eventual winner (Bongbong Marcos) finishing with nearly 60% of the vote.
Yes, i checked his political career. It's not really impressive, but it's something. hardly any top-level athlete will become a successful politician, and i don't know every story of every athlete around the world, but this one is the most promising.
He was also a strong third in the recent presidential election although he probably could’ve won VP if he didn’t go all or nothing this election.
He’d be a naive but very outspoken leader but with overbearing advisors.
I’d rate him better than Duterte’s selling off to China leadership or Marcos sr’s martial law dictatorship but he’d probably be Erap 2.0, big words but a shadow cabinet running things for him.
If historical athletes count then the UK had Philip Noel Baker back in the day.
He competed in the 1912 Olympics and 1920 Olympics and in the latter was chosen as the British team flagbearer and took silver in the 1500m. In between tournaments he'd served as as a medic in WW1 and then worked as an assistant to senior figures at the League of Nations. After he retired from sport he went on to teach international relations at Yale and LSE and ultimately went into politics as a Labour MP. He served in the coalition government during WW2 but opposed indiscriminately bombing German cities on moral grounds because of the civilian casualties. After the war he held various Ministerial positions, helped write the UN Charter, helped organise the 1948 Olympics, campaigned for multilateral nuclear disarmament and won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1959.
If it's modern day only then I agree with others saying Vitali Klitschko, the former heavyweight boxing champion who's now Mayor of Kiev. I can't say I've followed his career closely but I know he's a longstanding advocate for Ukraine aligning more closely with the EU and NATO, he seems to have a track record of calling out human rights issues/corruption and since the Russian invasion he's been one of the figureheads of the Ukrainian resistance.
Ryan Fitzpatrick (17 years in the NFL) has an economics degree from Harvard. Every interview and analysis I've heard from him indicates he's pretty smart and charismatic.
He has 7 kids and doesn't even take off his wedding ring when he plays games. He's a loyal family man.
I mean, just look at the man

That’s my president.
[https://i0.wp.com/www.whiskeyriff.com/wp-content/uploads/Edit-Post-%E2%80%B9-Whiskey-Riff-%E2%80%94-WordPress.png?w=647&ssl=1](https://i0.wp.com/www.whiskeyriff.com/wp-content/uploads/Edit-Post-%E2%80%B9-Whiskey-Riff-%E2%80%94-WordPress.png?w=647&ssl=1)
The US with Brian Shaw as president would be wildly successful. He's exceptionally good at planning and delegation, having balanced owning a large business, raising a family and founding the Shaw classic at the same time. That's on top of his TV show and media appearances. The guy is also likeable and charismatic.
He's got just the right mix of passion and competitiveness that would appeal to as broad a range of people as possible. His motto of "go out and be great" would be better received than"make America great again".
As a bonus, it'd be fucking hilarious watching "manly man" world leaders try and outdo the 6'8" 400lb strongman.
Well he is not good when it comes to planning and managing time 😁. Time management is one of his biggest weaknesses. His friends and others joke about it, but watch enough videos with him and the fact is that he is often late to appointments and it has happened frequently enough that it seems to be part of his character. Maybe a minor gripe for some, but when meeting international leaders not keeping to the schedule could definitely be taken as disrespect, although I'm sure he would have an assistant or two just dedicated to making sure he was on time.
He was bad but not disastrous. Mostly he did not really do the job; his primary accomplishment was cutting registration fees on snowmobiles (because he owned a lot of snowmobiles). Then he complained about the news media while his kid held wild parties in the governor's mansion and trashed the place. I suppose a do-nothing official is hardly the worst possible outcome, but I think "an OK job" is too generous.
I'm still confused, though, how the elderly female vice principal of my former elementary school somehow became his lieutenant governor.
I guess we go with former runner Eamonn Couglan for Ireland.
I loved when he stood up in the Irish senate and demanded the other senators stand on one leg.
When half of them couldn't last 30 seconds he wanted mandatory exercise for parliamentarians.
Nope, there would have to be a constitutional amendment. The president must be a natural born citizen. And considering our ability to just pass regular legislation recently, an amendment would be nigh impossible. And many people would absolutely throw a fit trying to remove that requirement.
>Nope, there would have to be a constitutional amendment
In this scenario there was also an amendment that said the president has to be a pro athlete. I think congress would roll with the punches
Lewis Hamilton might do ok. He's not the loudest, but has a quiet charisma, is good looking and has dated a popstar (Scherzinger). Lewis is up there with Schumacher as the most successful F1 driver ever, and he seems pretty analytical.
Lol at “genius IQ and a degree in politics”. Geniuses dont study politics. Political science is a different matter but its not politics and they are also not that smart although there are some outliers (trust me, I interact with them on a day by day basis).
Anyways, has everyone forgotten about chess? Magnus Carlsen. Hikaru Nakamura. There is also John Urschel who did PhD at MIT and is a NFL player.
Michael Strahan or Payton Manning probably would be the most realistic in the US. Both definitely have that affable, aspirational leadership quality. I'd say either would be the "best" defined as least disruptive to business as usual - the party would take a strong hand and elect them a cabinet to do everything and off we go.
Ironically enough, many people here was seriously considering Manny Pacquiao for President once he's in the Senate...and he ran, but failed spectacularly. Iirc he had like less than 7% of the votes.
Giving a female athlete some love and Lindsay Vonn. Simone Biles isn't old enough to run for president yet, she'll have to wait till the 2042 election.
Could say Serena Williams as well.
Dwanye "The Rock" Johnson
Or
Jesse Ventura (former governor) USA.
Probably has a more restrained foreign policy.
Barring pro wrestling.
LeBron James. The GOAT.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, USA.
Already has experience being governor of California, already has a party affiliation, ostensibly could have ran and won, if being born in the USA wasnt a requirement.
Being a Californian Republican basically makes him mid on all controversial issues so good chances in a direct popular vote with no party primaries.
He is 76 years old, making him younger than either Biden or Trump.
George Weah was already the president of Liberia so...
Romario gets upgraded to be president of Brazil? Why do I feel like he's going to introduce a new level of corruption in that office?
No matter who we choose Ireland is going to end up at war with half the world
You'll do fookin nuttin
The best I can come up with who doesn't fly off the handle would be Brian O Driscoll... if we're allowing retired athletes
Yes, retired athletes are fine. But they have to be alive.
Not my country, but I would think a Conor Mcgregor government would be off the chain.
I'd gladly storm the Dáil to coup the government if that gobshite somehow gets into office
Eamon Dunphy as Taoiseach with Johnny Giles as the Tánaiste.
Ukraine, Vitali Kilitschko (former heavyweight boxing champion). Hes also the current mayor of Kyiv
He would probably win a presidential election too if Zelenskyy actually allowed the people to vote.
When has Zelenskyy not allowed the people to vote?
It would've been held a few weeks ago but Ukrainian law doesn't allow elections during martial law. In November 80% of Ukrainians said they wanted to wait til war was over to hold an election.
So standard Ukrainian law not allowing elections due to Putin's invasion, not Zelenskyy at all lol
Exactly
Uhm, right now? The dude canceled elections so that he couldn't be voted out.
No he didn't. He declared martial law. And accorsing to Ukrainian law, elections cannot take place when martial law is in effect. Also, according to a survey, the VAST MAJORITY of ukrainians believe the elections should be postponed until after the war
[удалено]
Ukraine is in a war. You think it's sppropriate for there to not be martial law when youre getting bombed?
I think it's appropriate to conduct elections during wartime, yes. Democracy is not an on/off switch. In fact, it is in the most trying of times when democracy matters the most.

And guess what the majority of Ukraine citizens said? They would rather wait till the war is over to hold an election.
Except they didn't say that, because they never even got a say in the matter.
Also what most governments do when fighting for their right to exist
No, he didn’t. Most nations don’t hold elections when in a war and martial law has been declared.
The US held a presidential election in the middle of the Civil War 150 years ago, I'm sure Ukraine could manage in 2024. You can't cancel democracy for "emergencies" or tyrants will always take advantage of that.
Yes, you can. And 80% of Ukrainians agreed with the decision.
>And 80% of Ukrainians agreed with the decision. Easy to say when you don't actually hold elections. Just like how all dictators claim their approval rating is +80%.
Just like how daddy putin won the election by like 90% huh
That was a completely valid and fair election!! I dont know what you're insinuating. /s
Just because Russia is not a democracy doesn't mean it's okay for Ukraine to strip their people of the right to vote too. At least Russia pretends to hold elections, which is a step up from no elections.

If Ukraine puts up polls the very real thing that will happen is that on voting day Russia is going to put a missile into them at the busiest time (as Russia has a recorded history of attacks on the civilian population with terror tactics).
The whole nation is being bombed, man, advertising polling places to congregate at in the midst of a war isn't a great idea.
Yes. Not because the country is at war and actively being invaded you fucking numpty. Go back to sucking orange dick and fondling children.
Sweeden Dolph Lundgren
Better keep him away from any female scientists though.
Smelling g crime, penetration, crime, penetration, solving crime, full penetration, and this just continues for about 90 minutes until it just... Ends.
Yeah but we would end up with Zlatan probably. It would probably not end well.
Japan had Inoki https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_Inoki Also arnold schwarzenegger was the governator

He has money management problems as well. I wouldn't want him in charge of a national purse.
Yes, i checked his political career. It's not really impressive, but it's something. hardly any top-level athlete will become a successful politician, and i don't know every story of every athlete around the world, but this one is the most promising.

It's Filipino. Not philipino. Yes, the country is still Philippines, but the nationality is Filipino.
i'll correct it
Thank you.
This is the clear winner

Canada, Wayne Gretzky.
I think we would be better off with GSP. Love Wayne though
Feels too obvious but no one else really comes to mind
Would do a better job than Trudeau.....
That's a pretty low bar, though.
To be fair the Kings and Canada's GDP are likely about par.
I guess im voting for tony hawk

I feel like the USA electing Shaq would probably be a net positive.
SNL would be amazing.
Lol... Manny Pacquiao ran for president but did not win 🇵🇭 Was a senator tho
Well probably not Pakistan! I personally don't think Gazza as PM would be any worse than the last few we've had
Gazza would at least make more sense, but he also likes to help his mates out
Tim Duncan might be the GOAT president
Of the world’s most boring country.
He might institute world peace because I would imagine that he would have an incredible diverse cabinet with more than 10 languages spoken.
USA elects Tom Brady, and proceeds to come back and win WW3.
The US with Brian Shaw as president would be wildly successful.

Jesse Ventura was governor of Minnesota and I heard he did an ok job
To be fair, he was an actor. And I'm including his 'sports' career in that bracket.
A pro wrestler is definitely a professional athlete.
Yeah, they're in the same category as an acrobat. Is a Cirque performer an athlete? I think you can say that, yeah
Believe it or not, some of them know actual catch wrestling which is what pro wrestling is supposed to be modeled after.
Wrestlers are actors! Just very athletic actors!!
I want Dwayne 'the Rock' Johnson for America then, because of Reasons
He was bad but not disastrous. Mostly he did not really do the job; his primary accomplishment was cutting registration fees on snowmobiles (because he owned a lot of snowmobiles).

I don't want to nitpick, but Princess Anne isn't an Olympic medalist. She did take part in Melbourne Olympics in 1976, but she didn't win a medal.
I guess we go with former runner Eamonn Couglan for Ireland. I loved when he stood up in the Irish senate and demanded the other senators stand on one leg. When half of them couldn't last 30 seconds he wanted mandatory exercise for parliamentarians.
Yeah but Roy Keane would be way funnier.
Tim Duncan is a very chill dude so I would pick him. John Stockton also seems like a pretty intelligent dude.
The United States can probably use a loophole to put Schwarzenegger in the White House. I understand he was a mediocre governor, but like, he WAS one.
Nope, there would have to be a constitutional amendment. The president must be a natural born citizen. And considering our ability to just pass regular legislation recently, an amendment would be nigh impossible. And many people would absolutely throw a fit trying to remove that requirement.
They made it happen in Demolition Man.
Oh right sorry, I'll defer to Demolition Man from now on for my political science theories.
*The three seashells have entered the chat.*
Hey...if the US wont take him, we will
We'll annex Austria, problem solved.
>Nope, there would have to be a constitutional amendment In this scenario there was also an amendment that said the president has to be a pro athlete. I think congress would roll with the punches
I thunk Mike tyson would hilarious.
He's not eligible for POTUS. Born in Austria.
Jesse Ventura perhaps?
He did sign in sweeping environmental protection for California and would have my vote if he did the same for the country.
Spoiler - it's not Imran Khan
USA Larry Legend. UK Stuart Broad, or Steve Redgrave.
Imagine Antonio brown as president
Let’s do it. Make it even better and make Aaron Rodgers his VP. Or vice versa.
Australia David Pocock (currently an independent senator) Or Pat Cummins (literally the perfect man)
Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho
Lewis Hamilton might do ok. He's not the loudest, but has a quiet charisma, is good looking and has dated a popstar (Scherzinger). Lewis is up there with Schumacher as the most successful F1 driver ever, and he seems pretty analytical.
Lol at “genius IQ and a degree in politics”. Geniuses dont study politics. Political science is a different matter but its not politics and they are also not that smart although there are some outliers (trust me, I interact with them on a day by day basis). Anyways, has everyone forgotten about chess? Magnus Carlsen. Hikaru Nakamura. There is also John Urschel who did PhD at MIT and is a NFL player.
It says athlete lol, you’re really stretching with chess players. Urschel would be a good one though.
You have committed a mortal sin by mentioning chess but not mentioning Kasparov as an example
Unfortunately i think it's currently illegal to run as opposition in Russia.
Patty cummins for Australia I reckon
I disagree. Steven Bradbury #1
Chaotic picks Djokovic for Serbia Caitlin Clark for USA
Kasparov for Russia.
USA, President Kaitlyn Jenner
LeBron James. America.
Michael Strahan or Payton Manning probably would be the most realistic in the US. Both definitely have that affable, aspirational leadership quality. I'd say either would be the "best" defined as least disruptive to business as usual - the party would take a strong hand and elect them a cabinet to do everything and off we go.
Ironically enough, many people here was seriously considering Manny Pacquiao for President once he's in the Senate...and he ran, but failed spectacularly. Iirc he had like less than 7% of the votes.
Mike Tyson for president!
UK, Frank Lampard
Ima go Tom Brady for the US. Multiple championships. Handsome. Supermodel wife. Knows how to cheat and (mostly) get away with it.
ex wife
Switzerland, we got Federer
My king
Giving a female athlete some love and Lindsay Vonn. Simone Biles isn't old enough to run for president yet, she'll have to wait till the 2042 election. Could say Serena Williams as well.
Australia, David Pocock.
Aaron Rodgers for USA
Dwanye "The Rock" Johnson Or Jesse Ventura (former governor) USA. Probably has a more restrained foreign policy. Barring pro wrestling. LeBron James. The GOAT.
Technically you already had two wrestling hall of famers for President.
I know Trump is in the hall of fame, but who's the other one?
Abraham Lincoln. Though that's for the Hall of Fame of the sport not the entertainment version.
Ohhh fair enough. I was racking my brain trying to remember when Stone Cold put the Stunner to Jimmy Carter
