Here in the States, it’s Election Day! Have you voted yet?
Now, I understand why you may not want to vote. The candidates aren’t inspiring. None of the issues seem to have much to do with your life. Washington never changes. Blah blah blah. All I know is that it’s been raining here all day and I still took the time to vote! So there!
Myself, I’m in Texas and we pretty much already know who is going to win all of the elections down here. However, if I lived in California’s 24th Congressional District, I definitely would have voted for Chris Mitchum for Congress. Why? Because he’s Robert Mitchum’s son, of course!
(And he looks a lot like his father too!)
And, just in the interest of bipartisanship, I hope that Clay Aiken does well in his race up in North Carolina because my ultimate hope is that we’ll eventually have a Congress that is completely made up of reality show contestants and retired grindhouse movie actors.
A girl can dream, can’t she?
Anyway! As you watch the election results come in and you either get really happy or really depressed, why not take a trip back to the 1932 with this cartoon Betty Boop For President? If nothing else, it proves that dysfunctional politics existed before 2014 and will continue to exist long after 2014.
Enjoy!

Hard to support a political system that won’t let Doc vote.
