NEWS: Captain America Goes to Washington...


... well, Los Molinos. But there's not a movie called ''Mr Smith Goes to Los Molinos'' so you'll have to excuse the inaccuracy.

Anyway, Bleeding Cool brings us coverage of the Mayoral battle in Los Molinos, CA, where the position of Mayor (a purely honourable one, we might add) is awarded to whichever resident can raise the most money for charity.

Among the Mayoral candidates is Kevin Benson, Sr, who explained his campaign: ''I instruct school kids on the value of veterans. One year, a teacher said I was so patriotic I was like Captain America.'' Needless to say, the comparison struck a chord with Benson who is now campaigning with the shield and costume of the star-spangled supersoldier.

I wonder how long it will be before Marvel either slap an injunction on him or get him on-board for the Captain America: The First Avenger media campaign?
