Arrow's Stephen Amell Says He'll Run For Prime Minister If Kanye Runs For President

The star of CW's Arrow has took to Twitter to announce his possible "candidacy."

On Sunday at the MTV Video Music Awards, the famously outspoken Kanye West mentioned a Presidential run in 2020 at the end of his strange rant while accepting the Video Vanguard Award.

Just before literally dropping the mic, Kanye stated, "And yes, I have decided in 2020 to run for president!"

Amell, who is a Canadian citizen, has thrown his hat into the ring, tweeting "If Kanye runs for President, I'll run for Prime Minister of Canada."

Arrow returns to the CW for Season 4 on Oct. 7.
