The Republican Candidate Burgers by Dorm Room Dinners would be the perfect meal for Barack Obama to feast on if he wins the election in 2012. Each one of these burgers makes fun of one of the republican candidates in their own special and delicious way.
The Ron Paul 'Slim Burger' reflects the fact that Paul is pushing for a smaller government. The burger only includes a turkey patty and lettuce, which as Dorm Room Dinners puts it, "is about as exciting as the Paul campaign gets." The '$10,000 Burger' was created to mock Mitt Romney's comment during a republican candidate debate when he oddly tried to bet against Rick Perry.
American politics has become more of a show than a serious matter to many, which is evident with these Republican Candidate Burgers.
