The REAL First Black President, Hollywood Style

Hollywood has explored the possibility of a black president many times over the years.. I think James Earl Jones in The Man (1972) may have been one of the first.


Can you name any other black actors that have played the President?

Re: The REAL First Black President, Hollywood Style

I've caught a bit of 24 here and there, maybe 100 minutes in sum...I think the show had a black president.

Nearly fifty years ago many were surprised we elected a Catholic to the office.

Regards,
Keith

Re: The REAL First Black President, Hollywood Style

This might be a good poll question, but do youse all think affirmative action will be effected by the election of a minority, ie; an African/Arab/American?

Re: The REAL First Black President, Hollywood Style

I think Palin might appoint herself Senator from Alaska after one of the current senators, convicted felon Ted Stevens, and make a run for the White House. No doubt the Republican Party is grooming her for the job. She still has some "rough edges" to hammer down/file off.

Re: The REAL First Black President, Hollywood Style

wow, James Earl Jones looks so young in the movie.

What's so interesting about him, is that he stuttered as a child and spoke very little. He took acting lessons to help get over his stuttering. It's so hard to believe it, because he has such a great voice.

Re: The REAL First Black President, Hollywood Style

First movie i recall seeing him in was Dr. Strangelove, Or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb. He was a crew member on one of the bombers.


Awesome movie by the way!
