| presidential campaigns of George McGovern in 1972, Jerry Brown in 1976, and Gary Hart in 1984 and 1988—not exactly a stellar track record.Affleck seems to be collecting the kind of roles that will prove useful should he decide to seek elected office.The two most famous actors-turned-politicians, of course, are Ronald Reagan and Arnold Schwarzenegger,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and they have more in common than their political leanings. Neither made overtly political films and instead ran campaigns based on the heroic personas they had cultivated in their film careers. Reagan was the cowboy: a maverick and a straight shooter. Schwarzenegger was the rogue agent who could force the world to bend to his will, a quality that California, a state in complete economic and political disarray at the time of his campaign, desperately needed. Affleck, who shrewdly cast himself as the central hero of Argo, seems to be collecting the kind of roles that will prove useful should he decide to seek elected office because they have cross-party appeal.Perhaps |
