New President

Is there any way we can elect a tree as president? It will not declare war, or let any bills pass through congress. I assume it would be hard for the Commander in Leaf to impose new taxes or even take a stance on any political issue ever. I guess the only problem would be the inauguration speech. Ripping the tree out of the ground and dragging it down the street in a parade would probably be considered an assassination. But at the very least we could elect a goldfish as VP to carry on its legacy.
