He's been done: John Travolta.
The man I loved - the man who vanished - he never came back at all. But maybe he's still out there, somewhere. Maybe some day, when Gotham no longer needs Batman, I'll see him again.

true to a point, although, i believe he was actually playing a bill clinton like politician named jack stanton. Point taken, howver. He was a decent choice. maybe not southern enough.

Travolta was good in that role, but another suggestion would be a great actor who can play just about any Southerner with as much credibility as anyone out there: Billy Bob Thornton.

Billy Bob actually played a George W Bush like politician in Love Actually. I agree he could pull off Slick Willy. Maybe have to add some girth and stature, but he could do it nicely.

Billy Bob's character in Love Actually seemed to be a mix of both Bush and Clinton (the womanizing aspects).
I think Travolta would be a good pick to play Bill so props for getting him in that role.  |

I wanna try! Who would make a good Oprah Winfrey?
Jessica Marbles: I smell gas!
Miss Withers: I can\'t help it, I\'m old.
Jessica Marbles: No, not that kind of gas. The kind that kills!
Miss Withers: Well, sometimes my gas...

If you must play a "game," please do so in Polls. Do not start such a thread in the Movies section.

For Bill Clinton, I think David Morse would be PERFECT.

people post threads dealing with hypothetical subjects all the time in the movie section. What is the best book not made into a movie, worst sequel choices etc... i dont see a difference between this thread and other such discussions.
