Roseanne Barr plans to run for US presidency
The American actress has announced she is "totally serious" about putting herself forward to succeed Barack Obama because she wants to provide a voice for taxpayers, who she would like as her vice-president.
She said: "I am running for President of the United States. I`ve got to solve all the world`s problems. I`m totally serious because I want to be part of the debates, I want to represent the taxpayers and in fact, I`m choosing the taxpayers as my vice-president.
"I definitely want to be in the debates and if I`m not in the debates then I`ll Photoshop me in anyway. I want to put the questions to the panel about, `Where the hell did our money go?` That`s number one.
"I`d be getting rid of money, there would be no money or money systems. I`m totally serious."
However, the 58-year-old TV star insisted she would not become a member of any of the current political parties because they "suck" and contain "a bunch of criminals".
She added to US TV talk show host Jay Leno: "I`m not for either party because they both suck and they`re both a bunch of criminals. I`ve made up my own party called America`s Green Tea party. There would be no taxes. I`d forgive all student loans, all debts. All you have to do to be president is show up and throw a speech."
