	Total Recall (1990)
He did it! They totally recalled Gray Davis and now our Terminator, our Conan the Destroyer, is Governor of all California! Will he appoint True Lies sidekick Tom Arnold to be Lt. Governor?
	The Jesse Ventura Story (1999)			Not Rated
Before Arnold, there was Jesse, Governor of Minnesota from 1999 to 2003. He'll be sending Governor Schwarzenegger his feather boa for good luck. Ventura for President in 2004! This film is a biopic ABOUT Jesse. Jesse is not in it.
	Bread & Roses (2000)
Elpidia Carrillo played Anna, the sultry guerilla girl from Predator. In this film she plays Rosa, a sultry office-building cleaning lady who fights for the right to unionize. That'll look good on her resume if she runs for Governor.
	Action Jackson (1988)
Carl Weathers (Dillon in Predator) played "Action" and co-starred with Prince protegee Vanity, who's pretty hot in this film! Weathers also played Apollo Creed in the Rocky films, so we know he can take some punches in a dirty political campaign.
	Menace II Society (1993)
Actor/Director Bill Duke played Sergeant Mac in Predator, and an unnamed police detective in Menace II Society. He can shave his head without shaving cream, which would look really cool in a campaign ad. Look for Duke in Kill Bill & Karen Sisco.
	Fleshburn (1984)
He could be NEXT! Sonny Landham played Billy, the noble Native American warrior, in Predator. Now he's running to be Governor of Kentucky!
	Witness (1985)
Richard Chaves (Poncho Ramirez in Predator) usually plays the handsome Latino or Native American guy in TV movies. Remember he was Lt. Col. Ironhorse in the 1988 TV show "War of the Worlds"? He played an unnamed police detective in Peter Weir's Witness.
	Children of the Corn (1984)
R.G. Armstrong (Gen. Phillips in Predator) is a respected character actor with a long, distinguished career. He played gas station owner Diehl in this Stephen King novel adaptation. He'd make a nice gentleman Governor, but he was born in 1917!!!
	Last Action Hero (1993)
Shane Black played Hawkins in Predator AND wrote the screenplays for The Last Boy Scout and Last Action Hero! As a Governor his versatility would be a major asset!
	Predator (Collector's Edition) (1987)
In addition to the titular Predator, Kevin Peter Hall also played the Mutant Bear in Prophecy and the Bigfoot in Harry and the Hendersons! What a string of great leading roles! Pity Candidate Hall died in 1991...
