Now that's a great character for a role-playing game!

So, imagine you're in a used bookstore, and you pull out a copy of some science-fiction roleplaying game. You've found a copy of Shadowrun, and it's even a first edition! And the poor sap who abandoned it has left behind a loose character sheet for a psuedo-Corporate human type, and as your eyes scan down the ratty page with its many pencil marks, erasures, and even a coffee stain, you read:

Character objectives: Advocate for civilization, define civilization, teach the rules of civilization, arouse those who fan civilization, organize pro-civilization activists, leader (possibly) of the civilizing forces.

I would love to play that character.

Unfortunately, what I'm reading is actually Newt Gingrich's description of himself.

So... Newt Gingrich is a poorly-sketched Shadowrun character?

That explains a lot, actually.
