16. Christopher Walken

As the law currently stands, the office of President of the United States of America is open only to those who are American by birth. Those of you who remember the Barack Obama birth certificate furor will already know that! We're not sure where that leaves Christopher Walken. The veteran actor has otherworldly qualities, and we've never been 100% sure he's even from this planet.

If Walken did run, it might be the ending of a story that started over a decade ago. Back in 2006, as people began to turn their minds towards the 2008 Presidential elections, there were persistent rumors that Walken was considering standing. The rumor went viral and was reported as a fact by several 'serious' news agencies until Walken issued a statement to deny it emphatically. Conan O'Brien later asked him about the rumors and asked him for a campaign slogan. Walken came up with 'no more zoos.'
