Ok, not sure how this fits, the title and idea sounds fun and humorous, but I actually found a game simulating that! The game I found actually looks pretty cool! Importantly, the game focusses on so many of the topics discussed today. This is brought out in the idea that you get to assume the role of a contemporary Congressman, (trends as usual seem to be either conservative or liberal) and take over not only legislation duties, but Office budget, elections, re-elections, special interest groups, lobbies, party pressures, Today's international news and more. Was rather surprised to find such a detailed game myself, quite new too. Thought I would share the news in case any of you might be interested. Its online board-based and totally free, which means, I'm playing already, lol, same name too, John Stone from California, Republican Conservative of course. The game is called Politics USA, The American Way
Well, anyway, the URL is
