Agit-prop? I think it looks extremely American. liberalnarb Apr 2016 #8
Yes, thats it. do away with the belt and the change the red to green and I think that might do it. Hiraeth Apr 2016 #10
No, just get rid of the belt. Red is part of the Red-White and Blue theme. liberalnarb Apr 2016 #12
I understand but, I think it subtly reinforces that agit-prop thing. Would like to see it in Hiraeth Apr 2016 #14
Agit-prop as in Communism? Or just agitation propaganda? liberalnarb Apr 2016 #15

Just the latter. Now, if you wanted to ruffle a few feathers: forest444 Apr 2016 #17

But I do wish they'd drop the one with the George Washington motif simply because it looks a little too much like agit-prop (and thus probably backfires). The rest are all really good.

I do wish they didn't put the bullet belts around his chest, that's not something Bernie would use.

If he is indeed our nominee, we'll have plenty of that to put up with as it is.

What always gets me about red-baiting, is how it tends to work best with people who have little if anything to their name at all. Those always the ones who get most worked up about "sharing the wealth."

You never know what the public will go for (and they could certainly do a lot worse than that).

Of course, we'll always have this one if Trump is in fact the Rethug nominee:
