The 2016 Presidential Candidates

I was thinking Bernie was more of a Scarecrow....

Bernie's hair does look a bit like straw. But that's not important. Ted Cruz is the one who based his campaign on inciting fear.

Jeb Bush is the Riddler. He thinks he's smart but he can't apply his intelligence to the real world in a productive way and is no one's favorite villain.

Rubio is Clayface. He theoretically has a lot of raw power but he is never a mover and shaker in his own right. Also he tries to reinvent himself a lot.

None of the other candidates are interesting enough to be a Batman character. You'd have to crack open the vault of lesser known DC universe characters. For instance I think Bernie is more of a Wildcat than Batman. Tough, principled but beginning to show is age and hoping for one last hurrah. I don't know if any politician was ever cool enough to be Batman.

Though I did like see Abraham Lincoln chopping up Confederate vampires with a silver axe. There were only two US presidents that would be plausible action heros. Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosivelt. They were badass in their youth. Andrew Jackson might qualify as an edgy anti-hero. MAYBE. The Trail of Tears is hard to overlook..

Bush doesn't have the energy to be the Riddler

Well Washington was a lead from the front lines general, I suspect he qualifies.

Trump v. Madam Secretary...

Not sure what to make of it really.

Either way The States are trading in the Chicago political machine for the New York political machine.
