Comics Wayne for Mayor [nerd argument]

Why the fuck has this issue not been tackled? Bruce Wayne would be a logical choice for mayor of Gotham. His tragic past and degrees in criminal psychology and other relevent degrees make him a serious contender if he ever were to run on a platform of decreasing crime. His stint as Batman has given him the knowledge of who is and isn't truthworthy in the GCPD and legal system. He has a working knowledge of the crime families and the degrees to prove that if you can offer criminals a chance at rehabilitation (a fair chance mind you) crime, as a whole goes down.

Things Bruce could do as Mayor:

-Issue a special taskforce armed like batman to do investigative work throughout Gotham.

-Tackle the social issues underlying the criminal element by investing in Gotham schools.

-Allow for the proper treatment of criminals in Arkham, who has been either a malevolent for of pure evil making innocent men into psycho killers, or just plain ineffectual at both containment and rehabilitation.

In effect, he could use his influence and wealth to insure that Gotham wouldn't *need* Batman. Why the fuck doesn't he at least try to run?

Because as awesome as Batman is, he is a damaged individual with, in no particular order, serious trust issues, abandonment issues, arguably a split personality, egomania, and probably a slight God complex.

He feels that it is HIS mission to PERSONALLY fight evil since he couldn't save his parents. While dressed as a bat.

You make a good point. With that kind of qualification, he should obviously be running for president.

Because then he'd have to follow pussified liberal laws 'n' shit, instead of getting answers by punching people in the face and dangling them off of rooftops, the way Jesus wants.

If the Penguin can run for mayor, I do not see why Bruce Wayne cannot.

The point of a secret identity is to dissuade people from realizing who he is you know. And it's harder to hide things when the spotlight's on you.

There are no features that I possess, physical, mental or social in me, that would ground this decision of yours except in the most horrible of tastes.
