His recent admission of a possible presidential run has many people watching his next move.
The Washington Examiner reported that the actor stated, "Yeah, I'll consider it in the future. I'd be arrogant not to. Absolutely, I would consider it.
If I got into any form of politics, I'd be remiss not to also go in as an artist and a storyteller, help put a narrative together. You're the CEO of a state and a nation, a lot of compartmentalization and choices to be made. They scare me, but I'm not afraid of them."

The famous actor admits that people have the right to own guns. He also thinks the bill stops those wacky people from eliminating the Second Amendment.
He's also stated that to run for the presidency would have to be a revelation to him. He said, "If that happened to me, I would be pulled into it," McConaughey said. "If I'm living right, which I'm trying to, we get pulled into things. ... It's inevitable. I didn't choose it. It chose me." He sees the presidency as a calling that must be answered.
