With the election over and done with I am wondering if Superheroes ran for President who would be the best candidate?
I really think Tony Stark is the best man to take the big chair

Tony Stark would make a great politician, he's occasionally hypocritical, knows how to suck up to the right people, has loads of money, and he can lie without flinching. He's so good at it he can lie to himself and he'll believe it!
Personally, I thought Bruce Banner was a pretty decent President during House of M. Cap's a bit outdated for the job. Hm... Reed Richard's would be too dangerous. He relies too much on numbers and not enough on people to make his decisions. An understandable viewpoint, but probably a bad one for humanity at large. Cyclops would be shot his first day on the job...
How about Barry Allen, the Flash? He's smart, cares about people, his morals are unquestionable, powerful but not so much people would think of him as a dictator, and whereas other Presidents would spend days in mediation trying to consider every possible way to get a job done, Barry could do it instantly and pick the best route to solve the crisis. Also, he'd have a direct line to the world's best defense force.
Captain America

Tony Stark might be a bit liberal, for my tastes.
I think Captain America might be good, but if memory serves, he's not well-versed in politics or socioeconomics. He doesn't have the knowledge, or possibly brains, to be President. He's got amazing morals though.
Overall, I'd have to say...

This. This is exactly my thinking.
