If there was a disaster, and you needed advice, who would you ask?

I saw this posted on another forum, and thought it would be a great idea for here.

If there was a disaster in your neighborhood, and you could only ask one person from the following list for help and advice, who would you ask and why?

• Barak Obama
• Ron Paul
• Rick Perry
• Mitt Romney
• Michele Bachmann
• Newt Gingrich
• John Huntsman
• Rick Santorum
• Herman Cain

Advice and help are two separate entities.

We know the one who would give advice to ‘y’all folks’.

The others would offer help in different ways.

Cain would order Pizza;)

[CodeToad]

Well, he does have some interesting experiences with ballistics! :)

[Brookhaven]

Besides being fun, I don’t think it’s silly or useless at all. What’s revealing is the people that never get mentioned, which indicates they have no real world worth.

Perry for self defense.
Paul for medical help.
Cain for organizing skills.
Obama for “redistribute the supplies” skills.

Probably one of my neighbors. Politicians are the last people I would ask for help. But if I were forced to choose from this list, for the sake of argument, I’d pick Cain. Because he’s NOT a career politician.

[Reagan Man]

I'd probably ask Rick Perry, but I would definitely blame Bush. ;^)

[stuartcr]

It would depend greatly on the type of disaster. As a resident of VA, I would ask the president. He would probably be the only one with the authority to get my state or local government to act.

I would ask Barak Obama, and then do exactly the opposite of what he advised. We already get much too much bad "advise" from this knucklehead.

[wbill]

Too bad Chuck Norris isn't on the list.

It's just assumed that he's on the list. Chuck Norris is on every list, everywhere.

He also has a 3rd fist hidden behind his beard.

Sarah Palin - seems her name was in white...

[newheart]

It's just assumed that he's on the list.

Lol. I forgot. You don't put Chuck Norris on a list. Chuck Norris puts you on a list and you just hope it's the good one.

[dmz]

I notice you left out Sarah Palin.

<><><><<

You might have noticed that all of the people on the list are actually currently running for president.

[LouAvul]

I’d ask Smith and Wesson.

[I cannot think of a name]

Barak Obama

When you need information on a subject (Disaster) go to someone that is an expert.

(Actually I am serious)

Here’s mine “who would win a fight between vampires and zombies?”
That question has been answered...to a degree...
Deadliest Warrior: The Deadliest Warrior Pits Vampires Vs. Zombies
The vampires won.

[Joan Kerrey]

who would you ask?

Obama. He is the only one known to give favors for donations.

[Paisan]

Sorry. I haven’t been paying much attention to the current slate of candidates. I’m getting old and jaded. I’ve seen and heard it all before. Only Palin will perk me up.

Til then, or not, I’m prepared to take a doctor hostage to see me through a SHTF scenario. He would be well fed and well protected...

I wouldn't pick any of them. Why? Because they all would probably be of no use whatsoever in providing help or advice since with the lifestyles these people have had for years they probably don't even know, or have, even the most basic survival skills, which is what is needed most in the aftermath of a disaster.

Most of the people listed probably couldn't even tell you which way the wind was blowing unless some staffer gave them a clue.

[KingKongCobra]

Yeah but then the last vampire turned into a zombie.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

Me?. I’m asking Les Stroud and Cody Lundin for advice and assistance.

George W.Bush
