Dave Mustaine has really been embracing social media lately, and earlier today he got off on a tangent on who he would run with if he were to run for president of the United States.
A few months ago, Mustaine was asked who he would vote for and he gave a very indirect answer:
someone who gave a shit, who wasn't planted or paid off, who wasn't a puppet, and who understood the word "servant." https://t.co/6DrjRFDr18

Today, a Megadeth fan suggested they would be into a Dave Mustaine / Michael Sweet (the dude from Stryper who invited Mustaine's daughter to sing on one of his songs) presidential ticket, and Mustaine clarified that he'd want "Alien Cooper" [sic] as his running mate. We think he means Alice…
I was thinking of Alien Cooper as my running mate. I was thinking Michael could be my foreign minister https://t.co/NHZPpXXLtt

As for his Minister of Defence, that'd be Mike Muir of Suicidal Tendencies
Ok, I'm feeling ya! I'm gonna ask Mike Muir if he wants to be minister of defence! ST!! https://t.co/xQepO7TsSz

And then something about Dr. Ben Carson and his mother…
Dr. Ben Carson is a class act. Maybe he can be my surgeon general and his mom can be minister of education. :-) https://t.co/UwfCIBNPjC

Would you vote for a Mustaine/Cooper ticket for president?
