Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump? How about voting for James Hinchcliffe this year?
IndyCar driver James Hinchcliffe "announced his candidacy" for "Dancing with the Stars" in a video posted to the IndyCar Twitter page.
Of course, Hinchcliffe didn't need to announce anything. He was named to the cast of "Dancing with the Stars" last week, with dancer Sharna Burgess.
Hinchcliffe's video features him monologuing about how he's good at "turning both left ... and right," complete with a montage of him working on cars and laughing with crew members.
"Together, with your support, we can make IndyCar dance again," he says. The video is as much a spoof of campaign ads as it is a showcase for Hinch's personality.

Hinchcliife was injured in a crash just before the 2015 Indianapolis 500, but recovered to win the pole position for the 2016 Indy 500, and finished seventh in the race.
Also participating in this season's "Dancing with the Stars" is Indianapolis native Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds. Edmonds has won 11 Grammys, mostly in the 1990s.
