This is just getting a bit ridiculous, don't you think?

Mixing the kid's brains with politics, I was fine with comic books having a no-name/not existing president, but to put a live person into comic books that's something else.

He's got 4 or less years to make his other fortune. If the gimmick works?

That's a bit much!

I wonder if it would help get children get interested in politics though.

Absolutely nothing is the intelligent answer to that question.

As for the comic, if it gets the kids thinking about the president and how he effects everyone's life it could be a positive move. Spidey will never be real or run for president. Superman will not fix the economy. Wonderwoman will not fix healthcare.

I do think it's on the tacky side, myself.

But..it is a positive thing if it's gets children thinking about politics and the job of the President.

What does Obama and Osama have in common? They both have friends who bombed the Pentagon.

The kids can be taught things like how to goose step with rhythm.

That bumper sticker is not accurate at all. So the answer is still nothing in common.

Well and considering Obama did not have any friends who did the same then what is the purpose of the bumper sticker then?
