4. Danny Glover — 5 points

Like Martin Sheen, Danny Glover has played the U.S. President, in his case for 2009’s blockbuster disaster movie 2012. Glover’s image as a believable authority figure shows in his many roles as detectives, judges, and other smart people in charge. But Glover also has a career-long record of activism in both domestic and global politics. Again like Sheen, Glover has been arrested during a political protest. His parents were both active in the NAACP and would be proud of Glover’s half a dozen nominations for that organization’s awards for representation in pop culture.
