Brian Helberg – @BrianHelberg (Yes, I’m Canadian, but I’m still allowed to have an opinion. Sorry!)

I would like to nominate Kyle Seager to be the next president of the United States. Seager is a blue collar worker, and that is sure to attract middle class voters in a presidential election. Seags is also very well read, as he attended the University of North Carolina as a young man. Seager loves to have fun with his teammates in the clubhouse, but he is able to flip the switch and focus once the game starts. He always makes time for the fans, and he is a one of the Mariners key leaders.

The Fresh Prince of Seattle would make a perfect running mate for Seager in 2016. Taijuan Walker is a very engaging personality, and charisma oozes out of him on the mound. I think it’s safe to say Walker would win the young vote, as Prince Tai would easily be the coolest vice-president in American history. He is already one of the best young pitchers in baseball, and Tai should be ready to succeed Seags as president in eight years time.
