Travis Bickle

==Summary==
Travis Bickle is a former U.S. Marine who may have served in the Vietnam War. He is a paranoid 26-year-old with few friends, and suffers from severe insomnia, depression and existential crises, he takes a job as a graveyard shift cab driver to occupy his time, working grueling 12–14 hour shifts 6–7 days a week. Working late at night in dangerous neighborhoods, his customers tend to include pimps, drug addicts, and thieves. He is visibly angered by them, and begins fantasizing about "cleansing" such "filth" from the streets.
Bickle becomes attracted to a woman named Betsy, who works in the local campaign office of presidential candidate and United States Senator Charles Palantine. After Betsy rejects him, Bickle becomes increasingly paranoid and starts acting out his fantasies. He buys several guns, begins a physical training regimen which consists of doing 50 pushups and 50 pullups every morning and practices an intimidating, thuggish presence in the mirror to use on whoever challenges him.
