George Clooney may have an interest in politics, both on screen and off, but public office is one role he'd never take on.
"It would never be something I'm interested in. I'm not good at the kind of compromises that you have to make to get elected," said Clooney.
Clooneys father unsuccessful run for Kentucky's 4th Congressional District in 20004 may have left a sour taste in his mouth.
"I watched that happen and I watched how frustrating it was for him and I didn't enjoy it," he said. But it's the current political climate that keeps him from throwing his hat in the ring.
"It's still the most polarized time we've seen in a long time. And very caring, smart people on both sides of the aisle, you could argue, are having a very difficult time getting anything done," said the 50 year old Academy Winner.
