Since Kanye West announced at the VMA’s his intention to run for president in 2020, the media has been giving him even more heightened presence. #Kanye2020 was one of the many trends that surfaced Twitter, Instagram and Facebook only seconds after his surprising speech.
Practically everyone agrees he would be a better president than Donald Trump, but could he beat out these 5 foods for the oval office? Let’s take a look at the candidates.
Fried Chicken

Coming to you all the way from the deep South, Fried Chicken’s main attraction is its soul and and ability to provide comfort. Think about it. Last time you were down in the dumps, was Fried Chicken there for you? It sure was. This country needs a leader who is dedicated to the American people and to ensuring our satisfaction. Fried Chicken, with its rich cultural background and strong roots, would be sure to blow Kanye right out of the race.
Neapolitan Ice Cream

Never heard of it? It’s that ice cream that has chocolate, vanilla AND strawberry all in one perfect little package. Why vote for Mr. Neapolitan you might ask? Well, he believes all flavors are created equal, and that all people are created equal as well. In times like today with marriage equality, equal pay and the Black Lives Matter movement, America can be sure to trust Mr. Neapolitan with finally bringing equality to all. Watch out Kanye.
Fruit Salad

Fruit Salad brings balance and variation to the table (literally) by providing a healthy combination of all your favorite fruits. She has a little bit of everything and this country could use a president with knowledge in every field. Fruit Salad values the importance of well-being, so you can bet she takes a stand when it comes to healthcare issues!
Potatoes

For some reason potatoes have always been associated with laziness, but Mr. Potato (not to be confused with that of Toy Story), is here to show you he is different. Think about it, potatoes come in so many forms such as french fries, mashed, potato chips… Now, is that lazy? I think not. Potatoes adjust their form to fit our needs and that’s exactly the kind of leader this country needs. Think twice the next time you call someone a “couch potato.”
Bagel Bites

Bagel Bites unite our two favorite foods into one (bagels and pizza, if that wasn’t obvious). This country needs a leader who has this unique ability to combine 2 points of view into one, unified idea. Our country needs this unification and Bagel Bites is the perfect man for the job.
So, next time you find your brain seriously contemplating Kanye West becoming president of these United States, just remember that there at least 5 inanimate, edible objects that would do a better job.
