Could Jesus be President of the United States?

Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place." 
John 18:36

Jesus stood and faced the American crowd, Americans who last week loved Him, but this week loathed Him, now secretly wishing Him dead.  This was an open mic question and answer session for the two remaining candidates for President of the United States.  Jesus responded to the woman who questioned his intentions.  She was a mayor in the city hosting the session.

"Do you want liberty or a lie?"  Jesus said?
"What do you know of liberty!?" The mayor yelled.
"I know what your founding fathers didn't:  The only liberty in this life and the next is in me."
"NEVER.  We find our freedom in ourselves, a government of the people, by the people, and for the people!" (The crowd cheered!)
"Never indeed.  Where was this so called liberty with the natives of this country?  With the enslaved and the enslaving?  You want what you have not and cannot achieve.  I will give it to you.  But I must rule you."
"America will NEVER be ruled by one man!  We rejected the king of England in the beginning.  We reject every king and all kings now!" (Applause!)
"Do you really?  Will you really?"
"Are you asking us to undo democracy for a theocracy?"
"Is this one nation under God?"
"The principles of this country come from God.  But until God comes, we must govern ourselves and keep government from tyranny.  Absolute power corrupts absolutely."
"All authority is given to Me in heaven and on earth." (The crowds loudly boo him.)
"We, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE,  have given you NO authority!" (LOUD CHEERS!)
"When did you become the source of any authority?"
"We are the sovereign nation!  The United States of America!" (Cheers from the crowd.)
"It is written, '"The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign for ever and ever.'"
"NEVER.  NEVER OVER US!  What you say is not democracy!"
"What if one came who offered you perfect democracy instead of what I'm offering?  What would you say to him?"
"If someone made democracy perfect, self government complete, we would vote for him and follow him into the dawn of the glory of America."  (Loud uproars and applause.)
"So be it.  Some one will come. He will be your Messiah.  He will give you what you want:  Your own kingdom, without God."
"We want only the God of Democracy!" (CHEERS!)
"It will be as you say."

Jesus left the stage, and the other candidate stood in his place...smiling.

"I am the one you are looking for.  The one Jesus spoke of.  The one with the perfect democracy.  Hear me and vote for me.  I'm about to change the world...."  (CHEERS!  APPLAUSE!)
