Jesse Ventura? Unfortunately Arnold Schwartzenegger wasn't born in the U.S. so he's ineligible to be elected president.

Pretty sure the same requirement applies to the Vice President as well.

As a number of people have pointed out, President Camacho, for all his many faults, is doing a few things most presidents these days aren't:
1. He by all appearances is genuinely concerned about the many problems facing his country and is trying to solve them.
2. His solution revolves around finding the smartest and most knowledgeable people he can to address the problem.
3. He remains remarkably accessible to his constituents, to the point where anyone who wants to can show up to a kegger with the president.
4. He willingly steps aside when a better leader shows up, and supports that successor.
The only thing that stops a bad guy with a compiler is a good guy with a compiler.
