The Lawn Chair (2015)

Bellamy Young: Mellie Grant

Quotes 

• President Fitzgerald Grant : I've asked you here because I'd like to offer you the vice presidency.

  Susan Ross : What?

  Mellie Grant : The president is asking you to be his new vice president.

  Susan Ross : Why?

  President Fitzgerald Grant : "Why?"

  Susan Ross : I'm a terrible choice. I just got elected.

  President Fitzgerald Grant : That's why I'm asking you. This town has a way of taking people and turning them into politicians. I don't want a politician.

  Susan Ross : But if I were the vice president and then something happened to you...

  Mellie Grant : Then you would be president.

  Susan Ross : But I don't want to be president. I mean, no offense, but your job is the *worst* job in the entire world. No, actually, vice president is probably worse, because you don't actually get to do anything, do you? And I want to get things done. There's so much to do.
