He plays a member of the White House in the hit comedy 'The Wedding Crashers,' but is actor Christopher Walken aiming to take over George W. Bush's job in 2008?

An Internet rumor that Walken plans to run for president has been circulating -- a Web site for his "campaign" has even been set up at www.walken2008.com -- but a rep for the actor says the story is false. "It's one-hundred percent not true," says the rep.

The faux-Web site claims to quote Walken as saying, "It's time to get America back on track." According to the rep, "[It] sounds like someone got a little too excited over his role as Secretary of the Treasury in 'The Wedding Crashers' and now they want to make him president."
