Dwayne '(The Rock)Johnson Admits He's Seriously Considering a Run for President

Dwayne Johnson, whom is the highest paid movie star on the planet and a pretty rad dad, is serious with GQ about a desire to run for President of the United States.
"I think that it is a real possibility," confessed the Baywatch actor. "A year ago, it was becoming a reality. There was a real sense of earnestness, which made me go home and had a re-think 'Let me really rethink my answer and make sure I am giving an answer that is respectful and also truthful.'
In an interview, the 45-year-old actor, who did not publicly endorse any candidate in 2016, tackles the topic of the controversial travel ban proposed by President Donald Trump.Dwayne Johnson, GQ
"I disagree with it completely," he said without hesitation. "I believe in our national security to the core, but I do not believe in a 'ban' that bans immigrants. I strongly believe in inclusion. Our country was built on that, and it continues to be made strong by that."
As for how he thinks our current president is doing so far? 
"I would like to see a better leadership. I would like to see a greater leadership. When there is a disagreement, and you have a large group of people that you are in a disagreement with—for example, the media—I feel like it informs me that I could be better," said Johnson. "We all have our different issues, and we all going to work our s--t out. And I feel like one of the qualities of a leader is not by shutting people out. I miss that part. Even if we disagree, we got to figure it out."

Ron Meyer, the NBC Universal Vice Chairman, said: "If becoming the president is something he focused on...he may would accomplish it. I think there is nothing that he could not do."
When asked if he would vote for the superstar when it came to election day, Meyer, whose studio produces the Fast & the Furious-franchise, told us, "I would vote for him without a question."
