Americans vote for playboy types all the time. Kennedy obviously. They voted for Reagan an actor. People kept insinuating and hoping that Donald Trump would run and he has a good number of shady dealings.
Presidency is all about how much money you have and who you know. Bruce has it. Clark doesn't.
Now if Clark could somehow get the political and financial backing and it was actually a fair election like you should have in a democracy then clark might win. He's much more personable and doesn't have any real dirt on him. (although I'd still vote for a successful business billionaire business owner who isn't too corrupt over some reporter) But since that situation will never happen I'll still go with Bruce.
