i think it would be cool to see a Superhero deal with being a US Senator (Jay Garrick for Senate!)

or maybe something else like Airline pilot, or wall-street stock trader

something where its not quite so easy to just dissapear!

Black Condor I took over the life of a senator.

Batgirl (Barbara Gordon) was a Congresswoman (which I think has been retconned away).

I think that might make for a great satire.

--Lex Luthor is President in one continuity...might be ironic to see a superhero senator of the other party butt heads with him on every bill.
Superhero cops? There's John Stewart and "John Jones" (Martian Manhunter), so that's covered....
Maybe a superhero store owner...rob his place at your own risk.
Superhero teachers? That'd cut down on school shootings....
Superhero novelist...that's the job for me.... :D

Well, in the recent Spidey continuity, Peter's become a Science Teacher...

Good lord yes, I'd love to see a writer like Alan Moore or Frank Miller take on a political superhero... could be wonderful comedic satire or savage, biting commentary... or both!
