Barack Obama looked good out on the basketball court but never played professionally. Ronald Reagan portrayed both a professional baseball player and college football player in two different movies. Knicks star, Bill Bradley , ran in the presidential primaries in 2000 against Al Gore, but lost. So maybe it's time for the first retired pro athle
