Dwayne ‘ The Rock Johnson says that he would run for U.S. President if he felt he had enough support from Americans.

Johnson one of the highest-paid and most popular actors in the United States, has been flirting with a possible White House bid for several years.

He says he does have that goal to unite the country and also feels that if this is what the people want, then he will do that.

The former professional wrestler did not say which party he would represent or when he might launch any bid for the White House.

His remarks follow an online public opinion poll released last week by consumer trends company Piplsay that found some 46% of Americans would consider voting for Johnson.
