Dream of Politics... and Weird Stuff

Okay, so I had this pretty nutty dream last night.  I don't really have that many memorable dreams, but this one was so out there for me, I had to talk about it.

So, okay, it was election night, and for whatever reason, you get to vote for different parties for president and vice president.  Hilary Clinton has already won the presidential election, and now we were all waiting for who the vice president would be.  It turned out Arnold Schwarzenegger was running in the race for vice president, and he won.  Now for whatever reason, I was really annoyed by this, because I felt he won because of his popularity and not because of his policies, so I set up a bunch of traps to call everyone out on this BS, with stuff like how he wasn't born in America, etc., but nobody bought into it, then finally I stood out amongst the crowd, saying how upset I was, and that the whole election is really just one popularity contest, and that people only liked Arnold because he was in The Terminator.  And Conan the Barbarian.  And Total Recall.  And I began listing all the other awesome movies Arnold was in before admitting he's pretty cool and saying I'm okay with his win.

...Then suddenly, myself from the future shot Arnold and said to me: "Come with me if you want to live."  Turns out Arnold was a Terminator, and as we escaped, he explained that Arnold was really a means for the Republican party to take over the world...

Then M. Bison showed up giving his iconic "Of Course!", and I was like "What the Hell are you doing here?!"  M. Bison explains that this is all part of his plan to take over the world by going back to 1912 and becoming president of the Democratic party!  Then the DeLorean shows up, and Doc Brown is trapped inside of some kind of black mat and...

And I forget what happened after that.  I have to say, this was probably the craziest dream I've had in a while.  Just typing it out, I couldn't help but grin at how silly it got.
