 Some years ago, I wrote a screenplay that sets the Oedipus story in what was essentially the Clinton White House.  The president puts out his eyes--or does he--in a gesture of fake contrition calculated to keep power.  Ultimately, he kills himself when it's revealed that he has a black father because he feels the American public would never accept that.
I may have to dust it off if Obama loses.
