Chapter 4 Running for the Presidency
Located in the United States, the election of a new president has begun.
"So that's what they thought of to get out of the dispute? It's a good idea indeed. El looked at Captain America who was giving a televised speech and felt a little funny, it was a strange idea, but it was also a good idea.
"It's a bit unexpected, but it's a good idea, Captain America's morals are impeccable, but his political wisdom is really hard to explain?" Batman looked at the screen and made a comment.
Yes, after the end of Evil Eternity, the anti-superhero wave in the United States has once again reached a new peak. This is a big problem for most superheroes.
After all, although this seems stupid, in fact, even if you know that the person you are facing in front of you is not the one who killed your loved ones, or even when you are still a hero. Faced with the same face as the murderer, I believe that the vast majority of people are difficult to calm down.
Moreover, in the course of the war, the interests of certain people were greatly harmed, so they also personally contributed to the trouble.
In the studio of the outgoing president, a report called the Superhero Registration Act began to circulate everywhere, after all, the current president of the United States has abdicated his duties as president even himself.
Kryptonite invasion, giant monsters landing in New York, alien pirates, black light events, and evil superheroes from another world. The black president is so tired!
"But the opponent they chose for Captain America this time is really too wasteful!" Watch Captain America play against a big golden head and a female face that is extremely familiar to the American people.
"Today, the former president's wife has just broken some scandal, and the last obstacle of these captains has disappeared." Diana handed a newspaper to El.
"Who did it, Vision?" El took the newspaper.
"No, some unknown good Samaritan." Diana smiled.
The presidential election in the United States is all about those things, capital manipulation, behind-the-scenes dealings, and the election process. And none of this is a matter for the Avengers.
Captain America almost wants to be Jesus or something like that in the United States, with an unprecedented 90 percent poll selection, and that poor real estate developer is not as good as the former president's wife combined.
And because of Captain America's special background in the military, the military showed a rare tough posture in this election, of course, this may also be related to the fact that the war has just ended, after all, in the wartime, the military is the strongest.
"This has to be said to be a good idea, Captain America's character can make most superheroes put aside their worries about the government and choose to accept the superhero registration bill, but this is only a palliative thing after all, after all, Captain America always has to step down, and the registration of superheroes is not a good thing for some heroes." Batman is not optimistic about Captain America.
Even if Captain America can be elected and suppress everything for the time being, it is still a time bomb, and as long as someone takes advantage of it, it can easily become a handle to attack the Avengers and other superheroes.
"And, I'm worried about Captain America, after all, politics is not war."
Captain America is not an idiot, nor is he ignorant of politics. But this does not mean that he will accept that the main way of American politics is compromise, but Captain America is not a person who likes to compromise, on the contrary, toughness is the nature of Captain America.
Captain America's election as the candidate of the third-party National People's Party naturally met with unceremonious attacks from the other two major parties. One of the targets is that he is outdated and has no political experience; The second is that he ran for election with a mask and did not disclose his identity. And within the BJP, there are also doubts that he will become a puppet of the party leader, making superhero status a political tool.
But these were easily passed with the help of the Avengers themselves.
"Now that the oligarchy has seized the avenue of the majority of the people, some new enterprises and capitalists are not satisfied with the days of being controlled by the old families, and have also participated in this game." As a veteran family in Gotham City, the Wayne family can always maintain their dominance over Gotham City, and Batman is naturally not a political novice, but an expert.
Perhaps in terms of mechanical technology, Batman is slightly inferior to Tony Stark, but in other aspects, Batman is by no means lagging behind, and he has a grasp of people's hearts and the formulation of strategies, and thirty Ni Stark is not as good as Bruce Wayne.
"Like Germany at the beginning, we demand territory and land (colonies) to feed our people and to relocate our surplus population. The German nation is the best of the best, and has the right to rule the whole world, to acquire land for the German plough with the German sword. El said.
This is similar to the Nazi Party's clever exploitation of the German people's hatred of the Treaty of Versailles and their desire for national revival to incite revanchist sentiments and racial fanaticism. Preaching that the Germans must "gain space for their existence" by war, and that they must "acquire land with the German sword for the German plow", is the dirtiest thing under the glamour. Diana lived through that era firsthand, and while it could be called the era of the Big Bang, it was undoubtedly the most inhumane.
"That's it, Kennedy was killed as a mutant, and it was not impossible for Captain America to be assassinated, but DuPont had the achievement of blowing up the opponent's factory into the sky." Batman knows the attributes of capitalists very well, they have no conscience, only interests, even if Captain America is great, once he stands in front of them, he will mercilessly kill the killer.
"Capital came into the world, dripping blood and filth from head to toe, every pore. As soon as there is a proper profit, capital is emboldened. If there is a 10% profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere; With a 20% profit, it becomes active; With a 50% profit, it takes risks; For the sake of 100% profit, it dares to trample on all human laws; With a 300% profit, it dares to commit any crime, even risking hanging its head. If unrest and strife are profitable, it encourages them and strife. The smuggling and slave trade is proof of this. El has seen the capital, so he couldn't help but blurt out after hearing Batman's words.
"But this is America, a country full of strange things." Batman smiled helplessly, he knew better than anyone else about the nature of America.
