I rather liked his idea about 'simplifying words'. I think it was a fabulous idea (not just because I hate spelling) but because he was right; it would make it easier for people to learn english, ad make writing a lot simpler for those of us who already speak it.

I know a lot of people are going to chose this one, but it's to good to pass up.

I like the 19th amendment, which states that all woman can vote anywhere in the USA. Before this amendment, I think the country was making a huge mistake with not letting woman have the right to vote. I mean, woman made the hard trip to America along with the men, we worked as hard as the men to build homes, and lives, and generally did as much as the men to build our country. And to not let those woman vote was hugely unfair. It ranks up there with the 15th amendment, which gave any race the right to vote. If we didn't give woman, and africans the right to vote today, I think our country would be a lot smaller.

Well, the man in the middle has a T.R on his front, so I'll make a safe assumption that that's Teddy Roosevelt.

And then on his left, he's holding Russia, and on his right he's holding Japan, both by their ears.

I think it's showing how after the Russo-Japanese war, Roosevelt brought both Japan, and Russia into New Hampshire for an attempt at peace. The cartoonist is also showing Roosevelt in strong, masculine garb, and showing both Japan and Russia unflatteringly clad. I think the cartoonist is defiantly America, if not republican.
