Ron White


Scotch-drinking, cigar-smoking stand-up comedian and actor Ron White—also known as Tater Salad—may just become the next U.S. president. After two decades of paying his dues onstage, White joined the Blue Collar Comedy Tour in 2000 alongside Bill Engvall, Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy. The three-year endeavor traveled to over 90 cities and grossed over $15 million. In November, White announced his intentions to run as an independent candidate in the 2016 presidential election, with his platform focusing on the support of injured service members and a “war on drugs that matter” (imagine legalizing marijuana, but cracking down on meth). White’s accomplishments also include two Grammy nominations and a book on the New York Times bestsellers list.
