As a goodwill gesture towards other countries, world powers could start
being more conscious about the way they elect leaders who look and act
like mythical characters from other world powers' tradtions.
This could be an online repository of discussion and resources about
cultural mythical
figures and their meanings as they pertain to current
world
politics.
What made me think of this was the front page picture in the Washington
Post this morning of Hassan Rouhani looking suspisciously like Santa
Clause and saying he wants better relations with America. It made me
wonder if it was somehow a response to Barak Obama having the middle
name Hussein.
This would not bode well for America though since one our conservative
presidential hopefuls for the next election, Chris Christie, has a name that
sounds like Chris Kringle and he looks a little like the Buddha which
would make him a shoe in.

Maybe I could run for world governor as St. Jesus of the
fishbones. |

Or maybe I'll just keep smoking cigarettes and wtiting one-
boners for the halfbakery. |

Hey, whatever bones your buns, man. |

This is a slippery slope. Next do you prevent any voter from voting who looks like Tricky Dick, S. Claus. Mao, Adolf, The Penguin, JC, Attila, Vulcan ? Who decides? Your drivers license photo? |
