Elon Musk For US President?: Bitcoin Maxi Balaji Srinivasan Explains Chances

Published by

Crypto Market News: A recent survey that assessed political popularity in the United States revealed an interesting insight on Elon Musk’s fame. According to a poll conducted by Harvard University’s Center for American Political Studies, Musk’s popularity is so high that he falls into the class of political figures. Not just competing with the political leadership, but the Tesla CEO is in fact the most favorable political figures in the country, above former President Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis, Bernie Sanders and US President Joe Biden, the Harvard poll revealed. Hence, if and when Musk enters politics, it would be a groundbreaking move in itself in the political landscape.

Musk had already disrupted the electric cars space with Tesla and on path to make similar impact in other industries like space and social media. Yet, he had been a pure business leader all through and never a political figure. However, he would face a major hurdle when it comes to running for President, but there is a solution to it, according to Balaji Srinivasan, the former CTO of crypto exchange Coinbase.

What Could Stand In Way Of Elon Musk Running For President

Musk’s place of birth is not the United States and the existing laws do not allow naturalized immigrants to become president. Hence, Srinivasan suggests that Musk should run for President while bringing in a constitutional amendment to allow naturalized immigrants to become president. Given the massive popularity he enjoys across the country, the amendment could gain significant support. Overall, Elon Musk running for president is not entirely impossible, he explained.

The United States would surely have a leader in Elon Musk who supports innovation and disruptive assets like Bitcoin, if elected president.
