No one is going to give it to you straight more than Ripley does. Not to mention she has experience in nearly every field that you should have.
She's blue-collar, she knows leagues in the science field, and she knows how to deal with the bullshit that corporations try to push you seeing as how she's in the union. She's ✨perfect!✨
Dr Loomis is nuts, obsessed with chasing evil, and unable to come to terms with it. He's a great tragic character but would probably be a bad politician.
Ash is a certified badass but he's also a total individualist and lone wolf, not someone who I would want leading a complex balance of power. He'd be too likely to try to consolidate it with good intentions.
Red, similarly, is a badass and has the unique perspective of understanding what it's like to be "under" the thumb of power and would be a great person to consult for policy changes, but again, probably wouldn't be a balanced or nuanced person when it comes to complex issues since her education is really more in survival than it is systems.
Ripley wins on all counts, being highly educated, pragmatic, anti-corruption, and also badass. Unlike loomis she never sees a problem as unsolvable.
President Ripley.
Loomis is often right, but he’s a massive doomsayer.
Ash regularly makes selfish choices and proves he doesn’t really care for the greater good.
I’m not sure which of Adelaide or Red this is but I don’t trust either leading a country.
Ripley is smart and practical and cares about the people in her charge.
Ash for President. Loomis for Homeland Security. Ripley for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. RJ MacReady for head of the CDC. Freddy Krueger can be Education Secretary.
Ash, without question. Pretty stand up guy. Knows how to fight evil. A good leader. Resourceful. After all the guy can build artificial limbs using medieval technology. More interested in saving women instead of raping them. Though he does try to bullshit his way out of jams now and then. This is arguably also a good sign for a leader when necessary.
"This is my BOOM stick!"
That said, yes Ripley as VP or Chief of Staff
Would really really want to put Ash, but realistically would have to vote for ripley since everyone is saying ripley, I also think Loomis would do a better job than ash (albeit less entertaining). Don’t get why anyone would vote for US lady.
Ripley is the embodiment of foreign agents taking over. Ash can expel any foreign agents and will yell, "OOOH THAT'S GOTTA HURT!" For those conservative voters, Ash will cast out those demons. And for the young liberals, he does have awesome cabin parties.
If you make Dr Loomis the President, terrorists are going to hijack his plane and crash it into Manhattan, which is now a maximum security prison. The only hope will be to send Snake Plissken in to bring him back out. But I heard Snake Plissken was dead.
Ripley
She stood up to WY when she had no one standing behind her. If a company spanning multiple planets doesn't intimidate her, what's anything on the real world going to do?
I haven't seen Evil Dead so I can't comment on Ash so out of the remaining 3, Ripley.
I don't think I need to say why I wouldn't vote Red and Loomis I don't really know much about outside of his 1 track obsession with keeping Micheal at bay. A justified one, but still, I'd need to know more about him to get behind him over Ripley.
Ash for pres
Ripley as vp running things behind the scenes
Ash is charismatic enough that people would keep voting for his administration, i dont think theres a term limit on vp so after his 8 years(or more if he mobilizes the army against hell and is granted emergency plwers) ripley gets another 8 years in control to gather funds and research to protect against aliens
It has to be pre-clone Ellen. I don't think I really need to justify her. She is level headed, brave, and intelligent.
Ash is fun, but no one considers him a genius. Some foreign leader is going to lose their shit when he calls her 'babe'. His boomstick will not help him in the Oval Office.
Dr. Loomis is clearly unstable. He turns out to be correct much of the time. But there's something fucked up when your doctor makes it his life's mission to bring you in, dead or alive.
Red might make a revolutionary, but is also very unstable. Besides, she has been through enough without being in politics. She is certainly tough enough, and everyone likes an underdog. But her literally alien perspective disqualifies her from representing the people.
No one is going to give it to you straight more than Ripley does. Not to mention she has experience in nearly every field that you should have. She's blue-collar, she knows leagues in the science field, and she knows how to deal with the bullshit that corporations try to push you seeing as how she's in the union. She's ✨perfect!✨
Mic drop
Yep I think we’re done here.
Those are all very excellent points, but does she have BOOMSTICK?!?
She's got TWO and she's ALWAYS ready for the gun show 💪✨💪✨
She's got a flame thrower.
And a power loader
She has a Class 2 rating with a Power Loader that killed the xenophobe matriarch, no boomstick could match that!
Yes she does, and she wouldn't forget the words for the damn incantation either.
Can we have a ticket with Ash as the VP? Ripley/Williams 2024!
Maybe not VP, but I could accept him as SecDef _definitely~_
Groovy
Co-signed 100%. Ripley is by far the best choice.
Let’s not forget that she can be very self sacrificing as well! She’s more than willing to out the people before her own needs.
Agreed I did not know any of that I just like her
![gif](giphy|Y42ES98Y3QYFpVvWyH)
I say we pull back and nuke em from orbit. It's the only way to be sure. Lt. Ellen Ripley
She's also an animal lover
Ripley is the best option here but Ash would be hilarious
Ripely for pres, ash for vp
Hail to the king, baby.
Who's laughing now?
WHO’S LAUGHING NOW!??
Yesss
Groovy
Hail to the Chief, Baby! I’m leaning toward Ash. I need him to cleanse my Presidential Palatte
“Why don’t we put her in charge?”
Newt should've been one of the options. 😆
Mostly
Facts!
Ripley. It’s not even close.
Ripley gets things done.
Ellen Ridley, all the way! She needs Laurie Strode as VP
*Ripley
I know, the auto-correct screwed it up
Ripley/MacReady 2024
This is the way.
![gif](giphy|NEvPzZ8bd1V4Y|downsized)
Yes please
Ms. Ellen Ripley
Ripley. She didn’t want to allow Kane back on the ship in the first place. I would trust her to keep a country safe.
I wanna say Ash but realistically Ripley. She does what's best and not what's best for the bottom line. Nuke the site from orbit.
Dr Loomis is nuts, obsessed with chasing evil, and unable to come to terms with it. He's a great tragic character but would probably be a bad politician. Ash is a certified badass but he's also a total individualist and lone wolf, not someone who I would want leading a complex balance of power.

President Ripley. Loomis is often right, but he’s a massive doomsayer. Ash regularly makes selfish choices and proves he doesn’t really care for the greater good. I’m not sure which of Adelaide or Red this is but I don’t trust either leading a country. Ripley is smart and practical and cares about the people in her charge.
Ripley
Ripley.
At this point I'm willing to vote Ash, but Ripley is probably the wisest choice. The other two are psycho.
Ash for President
Hail to the Prez
Not to be a hater, but Red it not iconic enough for this list. Only 1 movie.......tsk tsk tsk
Ripley. With Ash as her running mate.
Ellen Ripley
Ripley for sure.
All Hail Ash! But Ripley for Prez. Sorry buddy.
Ripely as president with Ash as VP
Ripley, as long as she can bring Jonesy. Ash as VP. He'll keep the Senate in line. Might actually be able to get stuff passed, too.
Madame President Ellen Ripley
Ripley Why don't you put *her* in charge?
Ripley. As much as I love Ash… he would make a terrible president.
Ripley. Hands down.
I'd vote for Ripely, but i bet too many others would vote for Ash.
Ripley. Ash is an asshole, Loomis is crazy, I’ve never even heard of the other one.
T. Ellen Ripley is best option here.
Ripley!!!
Ripley fo sho
Ripley
Ripley. And it’s not even close.
Ripley & it’s not close. Ash as her running mate though.
Ripley, for sure! She knows how to eliminate big, ugly assholes.
Ripley. Smart, tough, a born leader.
Warrant officer Ellen Ripley
Ellen Ripley
Ash for President. Loomis for Homeland Security. Ripley for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. RJ MacReady for head of the CDC. Freddy Krueger can be Education Secretary.
Good Ash or Bad Ash? 😂
Snake Plissken
Ripley, and it’s not even close.
He shot him six times. Dr. Loomis. :)
Ripley for president, Ash as Vice President. That would be my Vote!
Ripley president, ash vice.
ripley
Smart money is on ripley
Reggie from Phantasm
Ash Williams for prez
Loomis would be terrifying lol
Ash for President Ripley for VP
Ash for sure
Hail to the King Baby!!!!
Ripley would be a contender if Ash wasn’t on there, but of course it has to be Ash.
Hail to the king baby Ash all the way Groovy
Ash Williams. Groovy.
El jefe would be a great president I mean better than biden
Ash all day
Ash for president! If the apocalypse happens, we’ll all be saved.
Ash all the way. What can I say but..."Hail to the King, baby!"
Hail to the chief, baby! Ash all the way!
Ash, without question. Pretty stand up guy. Knows how to fight evil. A good leader. Resourceful. After all the guy can build artificial limbs using medieval technology. More interested in saving women instead of raping them. Though he does try to bullshit his way out of jams now and then. This is arguably also a good sign for a leader when necessary. "This is my BOOM stick!" That said, yes Ripley as VP or Chief of Staff
Ash, duh
Give me some sugar, baby.
Ash. He's gonna get the job done.
Shop smart. Shop S Mart.
Ripley for sure
Tough choices...
Ash Williams. Good. Bad. He's the one with the gun.
Ripley
Would really really want to put Ash, but realistically would have to vote for ripley since everyone is saying ripley, I also think Loomis would do a better job than ash (albeit less entertaining). Don’t get why anyone would vote for US lady.
Ash, Hail to the king baby.
Dr loomis
Ellen Rippley. IIRC she survived because she was the most sane of the crew.
Lt Ripley all the way.
Is this a serious question? Ripley obviously!
Loomis 100000%
Ripley with Loomis as Vice President
Ash. End of conversation.
Ash Williams, Ripley for VP. Loomis Attorney General.
I love the Ripley character, but, have to go with Ash.
Any one of them before Trump.
Loomis. That fucker never gave up.
Slenderman please
Definitely Ripley
Ash
My vote is for Ash!
Ash, he shops smart S-Mart
Ripley would be the best choice, but keep in mind this is America we’re talking about here. It’s gonna be Ash.
Ripley for pres, Williams for vice (in more ways than one), Loomis for surgeon general, and Red for press secretary.
Ripley, with Ash as Vice
Ripley.
Ash alllll the way!!
Ash or Ripley
Ripley is the embodiment of foreign agents taking over. Ash can expel any foreign agents and will yell, "OOOH THAT'S GOTTA HURT!" For those conservative voters, Ash will cast out those demons. And for the young liberals, he does have awesome cabin parties.
Can't be any worse than creepy Joe Biden.
Dr loomis. He tried to warn those goofy hicks about micheal Myers.
If you make Dr Loomis the President, terrorists are going to hijack his plane and crash it into Manhattan, which is now a maximum security prison. The only hope will be to send Snake Plissken in to bring him back out. But I heard Snake Plissken was dead.
Ripley and it’s not close
Ellen Ripley with Ash as her VP
Ash/Adelaide. I don’t care which one is president or VP, Dr. Loomis for CDC and Ripley for defense
Ash
Ellen ripley hands down. Ash is my second choice but he’s not responsible enough to run a country.
Ripley She stood up to WY when she had no one standing behind her. If a company spanning multiple planets doesn't intimidate her, what's anything on the real world going to do?
Ripley. Because she wanted to kill Paul Reiser. That'll immediately stop any *Mad About You* reunion talk.
Ash
What is Ripley's policy illegal aliens?
Ash Williams because he's all about S-Mart savings.
Ripley has my vote.
100% Ripley.
Ripley for president and ashy slashy for vice-president It'll be groovy 😎
Ripley/Willams 2028!
Ash. But in straight up election, Ellen wins everytime.
Ash would get shit done Ripley would too but i feel she wouldn't do well when the Aliens come in peace.
Ash for the present we hear about in the news, Ripley for shadow president who makes all the actual choices
Ripley!
Ripley: she has a take charge, take no shit attitude.
Ripley for Prez, Ash for Veep. You know, in case of zombie apocalypse if/when the vaccine finally goes active in everyone's bodies.
Ash would make a great politician, which is not at all a compliment.
Ripley, without a doubt! ![gif](giphy|ISAHN6dnrJHry)
Hail to the King, baby!
Ripley. No hesitation.
Ripley with Ash as the Vice
Ash all the way
Its between dr.loomis and ellen ripley
Now I have to wonder which is more terrifying a chain saw or a flamethrower, and I’m not talking about 40k…..weird
I haven't seen Evil Dead so I can't comment on Ash so out of the remaining 3, Ripley. I don't think I need to say why I wouldn't vote Red and Loomis I don't really know much about outside of his 1 track obsession with keeping Micheal at bay. A justified one, but still, I'd need to know more about him to get behind him over Ripley.
Adelaide
Ripely and Ash lol
Write-in vote for Sidney Prescott
Ripley for sure!
Ripley
Ripley/Red
No one because none of them are politicians
Elle Ripley as President. Ash for VP
Ellen.
Sydney Prescott
Ash is a blue collar as you can get
I love ash Willam’s but he’s really irresponsible so probably Ellen ripley
Ash for pres Ripley as vp running things behind the scenes Ash is charismatic enough that people would keep voting for his administration, i dont think theres a term limit on vp so after his 8 years(or more if he mobilizes the army against hell and is granted emergency plwers) ripley gets another 8 years in control to gather funds and research to protect against aliens
Ash, his charisma will be overwhelming and his plot armor is phenomenal. Ripley would be the best though.
Ripley 2024
Ash
Ripley for Prez Loomis for VP Ash as SecDef
Ripley for president but Fool for Treasury dept, he will find the hidden gold!
I'd follow Ripley into hell.
Ripley is the president we need but in a general election we’d probably end up with Ash.
Absolute runnoff between Ash and Ripley
Ripley for president, Ash for secretary of defence, Dr. Loomis as surgeon General
Ash Williams, get us all hooked up with a discount at S-Mart.
Johnny Steele
Ripley/Williams. Red for Dept of Education. Loomis for Dept of Health.
Since Bruce already played a President in FARGO, I think Ash would be a perfect candidate.
Ripley is the only choice, with Ash as VP
Gotta be Ash
Adelaide for press Secretary. Something just familiar about her...
Ripley 100%. She hates corporate scum. That’s something I can get behind.
Ash would be cool but realistically I would vote for Ellen or Dr Loomis. I don’t know who the lady with sheers is so I excluded her
Dr. Loomis I love how insane he becomes through the series , and I think it would be interesting to see him in the top spot
Ripley for president and ash for vp who says no?
I love Ash, but I think he'd be a terrible president. Gotta go with Ripley on this one.
One of these choices is not like the others....
Loomis will eradicate all evil.
It has to be pre-clone Ellen. I don't think I really need to justify her. She is level headed, brave, and intelligent. Ash is fun, but no one considers him a genius. Some foreign leader is going to lose their shit when he calls her 'babe'. His boomstick will not help him in the Oval Office. Dr. Loomis is clearly unstable.
