I figured with the presedential election coming up pretty soon, it might be interesting to take a vote as to who might be sworn in amongst the authoritative men and women of the video game world.

Therefore, I came up with eight potential candidates that'll be subjected to a rigorous primary before we whittle them down and vote one into office! I couldn't come up with any logical way to split them all into two groups, aside from Square-Enix and non-Square-Enix... so that's how we'll do it!

The National Non-Square-Enix Party (name to be changed when someone comes up with something better)

Nominee 1: The President - Bad Dudes

He doesn't have a name, so we'll just refer to him as The President. He seems like a naturally happy-go-lucky guy, someone that could really connect to the masses through his love of hamburgers and advisors with fashionable olive bomber jackets.

The downside, though, is that he might be lacking in knowledge of national security. And the uncanny resemblance to George H.W. Bush.

Nominee 2: Mike Haggar - Final Fight

Here's another guy a lot of people might relate to. Not only is he tough on crime in his city, but he takes to the streets himself to clean up the image that outsiders have on his town. He's also a family man, having saved his daughter once or twice while roaming the mean streets.

Nominee 3: Matic - Strider

A prominent businessman, fronting an organization that just so happens to specialize in counter-terrorism. Just what we need in these times of peril! Unfortunately, he's also susceptible to outside influences, whether they be lobbyists or secret mind control projects.

Nominee 4: Actraiser - Actraiser

What can you say about this guy that can't be seen in the miracles he performed around the world? He's stabilized numerous agriculture-based economies, turned desert wastelands into flourishing paradises with relief aid, and eliminated countless threats single-handedly. Wow.

So there you have it. You can vote for any of these guys, or simply write-in any other nominees with justification for doing so. Remember, every vote counts!

It was more of a general comment than a pledge of support, but what the heck. *votes*

While I think i'd rather talk to 'The President' he'd proably suck ass as a president. Also, swords are cool. Go, go Actrasier!

Well, there's a Square-Enix version waiting in the wings, you know. He'll be there.

Oh man, that Matic picture reminded me of all those games where you would go around planets buying parts for your ship and crap like that. Does anyone remember the names of any of those games? I need to go and play some.
