* Subverted in [https://web.archive.org/web/20090104034939/http://beta.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=070620 this] ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'' strip, where the president who's secretly a centuries old wizard who enslaved people's souls isn't actually that bad.
{{quote|'''President Kesandru:''' Living hundreds of years changes you. I used to toy with people, destroy people, all with the selfish goal of untold wealth and power. Now I want to help people, to make up for past deeds. Take steps to make this a better place for everyone ... while ''still'' attaining untold wealth and power.

* In ''[[Narbonic]]'', it is revealed that {{spoiler|Mell's future self}} becomes President in the comic's [[Bad Future]]. She did this so that she could {{spoiler|send a message to the past explaining how to avert the future. The process of sending the message to the past [[Omnicidal Maniac|physically destroys her world]] in the process.}}
* ''[[The Japanese Beetle]]'' featured an [[A.I. Is a Crapshoot|evil android]] named Hypnotron whose [[Compelling Voice]] fueled a villain-organized run for the Presidency, but ultimately failed because, as a newly-built android, he's too young to legally be President. A later storyline had him succeed in disguising himself as [[George W. Bush]] and taking over America, using his powers to alter the world in subtle ways until a few heroes and villains catch on and fight back.
* Zexion was elected governor of Pennsylvania in ''[[Ansem Retort]]''. So far, he's stolen tax dollars to finance his best friend's wedding (just to prove he can) and invaded [[New Jersey]]. (Granted, he's only a lesser office, not President. ''Yet.'')
** In a more recentlater season, he sold New Mexico back to Mexico for the right of all US citizens to have [[Latin Lover|sexy Latino names]]. His is Guillermo del Zexiero lo Marquis.
