Matt Damon is obviously one actor who’s not afraid of a good political debate, but could he run for president? Director Michael Moore has publicly called on Damon to run for U.S. president next year after praising him for taking a “courageous” stand against key political issues. Damon joined a teachers’ protest in Washington, D.C. last month to rally against standardized testing, and he recently voiced his disgust at the way politicians were stalling on a deal to raise the U.S. national debt ceiling. Moore hasn’t actually spoken to Damon about his idea, but has proposed him as an option for a third party candidate.
