Election 2016 - Aly Raisman For America

It's Election Day in the US.

The citizens are waiting with great anticipation or anxiety of what the future of the country is going to be.  Hilary Clinton or Donald Trump.  Political polarization threatens to tear the nation apart at it's delicate seams.

Well, the gymnasts of Team USA are not choosing either choice, nor are they going with a third party, like Jill Stein or Gary Johnson, no, they're nominating one of their own.  Sort of...

In honor of election day, the athletes were interviewed to find out, who among them would be a good candidate for the President of the United States of America.

Spoiler alert - it's Aly Raisman by a landslide.
Watch the video from USA Gymnastics-





Aly indicates she'd likely pick Madison Kocian maybe to be the vice president... to Simone, to keep Simone in line...

So, could we possibly see a Raisman & Kocian or Biles in the future?

They're already endorsed by their teammates!
