1. He may have a future as political cartoonist.
Or if just regular one is cool too. Tell him to keep up the good work.

8. Unfortunately
there is no future for political cartoonists. It's a dying profession, which is very sad news indeed.

But, the cartoon is a very good one, considering the boy is only 12. He does have real talent.

9. Maybe it is not dying, but evolving...perhaps on the net...
Laughter will never go out of style. God knows we need a laugh these days.

7. His generation will be paying for this looting
and his children, and their children...so I figure he should probably know what is going on....
