I am thinking of the fact that, with a world full of superdelgates and electoral colleges, we the people are not directly represented in our government. I guess that makes us all "pawns" for lack a better adjective.
I am interested in my fellow board surfers ideas about what presidential or political figures would be if they were chess pieces. Would Hillary king? Is George bush horsing around or is it really just our easily hackable voting machines that have got us by the bishops? Let me know your thoughts.

Make the Queen Bill with tongue hanging out, running, arms outstretched, and the obligatory cigar...
Or make the Queen Hillary, doing all the hard work behind the scenes while Bill the King sits in a chair with Monica on her knees, immobile and weak.
I have nothing against the Clintons particularly but they're such easy targets for the chess theme!
