You can blow it up!

Unless this is a hoax, Christopher Walken is running for president.

I actually caught myself thinking WOW COOL. Ugh.

Edit: Looks like a hoax. (Thanks [livejournal.com profile] daerr)

I'm actually under the impression that it's a clever bit of parody, since actors who get into politics are usually known for their heroic (or at least anti-heroic (Eastwood)) roles, where as Walken... is not.

Oh, I assume it's parody as well, thanks to Daerr's sleuthing, but that thing 'bout actors and politics comes out of another bit of California theatre: Rob Reiner has been testing the waters to run for guv vs AAS and he's not getting a whole lot of support.
