Like with George W. Bush, comedians could get more than they bargained for.

Question: Who would be the funniest president?

Rob Huebel: Oh, man. You know, I feel like it's a tricky thing because you-- the person that comedians want to be president should not be president, you know? Like, when George Bush became president, you know, comedians were, like, yeah, oh, no. Oh, my god. This is going to be hilarious but terrible for the world. And that's exactly what happened, you know? It was, like, the worst thing that could have ever happened in American history but good for comedy. Sorry, world. So, as that pertains to this election, you know, I don't know. I mean, McCain, I think, is probably a crazy dude and I have total, you know, regard for his military service and stuff like that but I think he's, like, he's like an old crazy white dude that wants to blow up certain countries in the world, that's my take on him. That would be funny. It'd be funny if we did stuff like that, right? No. No, it wouldn't.
