 Q1. What inspired you to want to be President of the United States? How did you come around to that as an ideal goal and future occupation?

KG: First of all Obama inspired me. But why did I want to be President? Why? It's simple. I feel that out of all the people that I hear about running for President, it's always the same 4 candidates running it. You never hear about all of the other possible candidates. Is that fair? No. I feel I have the leadership abilities necessary to run the country in a better direction.

 Q2. What was it like transitioning from High School into your College career?

KG: The transition from high school to college was hard. I mean I was working prior to entering college. I worked at Ippudo for almost a solid year, and that was very difficult balancing work and college. There were days where I hated the job, but it was a leading experience, j learned a lot.   

Q3. When getting started on your daily schedule, what do you do to build the tunnel vision necessary to complete work?

KG: I'm all over the place sometimes. I don't know if I got a lot of things done but, I try to do the things in order. It's scientifically proven that human beings cannot multitask. I just do things in order.  

Q4. Who are your creative influences?  

KG: Johnny I've ( Apple), Mark Neusan and Steve Jobs in terms of vision .  

Q5. If you were to make a movie based on a album or person? Who or what would it be?

Q6. If you were to make a movie based on a president, who would it be, and why?

KG: Jack! Jack Kennedy! JFK man! Come on! Haha.  

Q7. If you could do your own continuation of a film or TV series, what would it be? Why that film and how would you handle the concept?

KG: Hmm, I would pick a tv series. But I would turn into a movie. The series of choice would be F.R.I.E.N.D.S. or Everybody Loves Raymond. I'd merge those two shows along with King of Queens. I'd merge those three shows into one crossover film. Those TV shows defined a generation man. It was the epitome of family.   

Q8. 30 years from now, what would you like to have seen accomplished in the USA as well as the globe?

KG: I'm sure I have a flaw... That's something to think about...  

Q12. If you had a chance to speak to a deceased creator that inspired you, who would it be and what would you discuss with that specific individual?

Q13. What would you do the moment you enter office after being elected as President of the United States of America?  

KG: You know you'll have to go through ceremonial stuff, but I'd take a tour with the family around the White House. Afterwards I'd sleep because I won't be sleeping for the next 8 terms. If you're a good president, you'll be hated on after the first day.   

Q14. If you were to write a book on your life, what era would you focus on?
