ABSTRACT:
A card game comprising a plurality of playing cards representing current U.S. political figures. Each playing card has a front surface and a back surface. The front surface displays a picture of a political figure accompanied by his/her name and job title. The back surface contains information about the political figure depicted on the front surface. Each playing card may also include information encoded thereon indicating the political ideology (Liberal, Moderate, Conservative, or the like) of the political figure depicted on the front surface. The encoded information is not immediately decipherable by the casual observer. The playing cards may be integrated into a game system via a looseleaf-type game binder divided into state sections representing the states of the United States. The game binder may include apparatus for revealing the encoded political ideology of each political figure when his/her playing card is placed therein. The game binder may also include apparatus for storing and organizing the playing cards. The object of the game is to build a "political consensus" by being the first player to possess a predetermined number of playing cards representing political figures all of whom share the same political ideology.
