			Probably one of the best senators the Light Side has to offer is the "good" side of Palpatine as a Senator. His high stats (4 ability, 4 politics, 5 forfeit, 3 destiny) make him a very versatile character, whether he's debating in the Galatic Senate or battling the Trade Federation elsewhere.

			As a senator, he is invaluable since there are only 4 Light Side senators and only 3 have peace agenda (if you want to utilize the [[Plead My Case To The Senate / Sanity And Compassion{{!}}Plead My Case To The Senate]] objective). Also, he will give any Amidala (even Padmé) an extra point of politics. When you go head-to-head against another senate deck, 1 point of influence can make all the difference in the world. Should you happen to hold the Senate, you will gain the bonuses listed on your characters with politics. Palpatine's senate majority game text might not seem so useful since you can not cancel battle destiny, but if you have [[Qui-Gon Jinn]] battling, it doesn't really matter what the opponent draws. :)

			Combo:

			While he's not in the Senate, you can convert that pitiful 1 power to another battle destiny draw. And if you don't have him already, go get him from the Reserve Deck.
