This is an actual, real, serious petition on the White House website:

"WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:
Require Congressmen & Senators to wear logos of their financial backers on their clothing, much like NASCAR drivers do."


Since most politicians' campaigns are largely funded by wealthy companies and individuals, it would give voters a better sense of who the candidate they are voting for is actually representing if the company's logo, or individual's name, was prominently displayed upon the candidate's clothing at all public appearances and campaign events. Once elected, the candidate would be required to continue to wear those "sponsor's" names during all official duties and visits to constituents. The size of a logo or name would vary with the size of a donation. For example, a $1 million dollar contribution would warrant a patch of about 4" by 8" on the chest, while a free meal from a lobbyist would be represented by a quarter-sized button. Individual donations under $1000 are exempt.

I would still love to see him change his first name to Ras. :)  (Worked for Ras al-Ghul.)

As immortal villains go  "Vlad" Dracula was an equal nasty piece of work as Batman's foe.  ::)
Although old Ras did have one helluva hot daughter, "Talia", who even old Bats had a hard time resisting. 8)

Sam, I don't think Rasputin was a Batman villain...
I got Druul's reference to the mad monk of the Czars, and he went on to reference Ras al-Gul, who if you don't know, was/is a near-immortal power-hungry megalomaniac Batman villain of the 1st order. My comment was that Putin's first name was the same as Dracula's, who isn't any kind of angel either, not by a long shot. :-\

Oh, and I seem to recall there once was a run-in between old Bats and Rasputin during the long run of the Batman comics, but don't hold me to it. :-X
