It's often said that politicians don't get anything done. No one could throw that accusation at Senator Steven Armstrong. The Colorado statesman is nanomachine augmented, capable of tearing metal apart with his bare hands.

His confrontation with Raiden at the end of Metal Gear Rising is nothing short of heart-stopping. His bull charges and ability to stand up to attacks that would have lesser men reduced to a cowering wreck are broken up with well-written cutscenes. Some of what Armstrong says is even scarier than what he does. A powerful politician talking about crazy schemes hits a little too close to home at times.
