Political Cartoon Ideas? Cartoonists? Post Here

One idea that I've had but lack the skills to portray is this:

A stagecoach labeled "America" rushing headlong towards a steep cliff

Hilary, Obama, McCain, and Romney riding it

Hilary and Obama yell "LEFT!"

McCain and Romney yell "RIGHT!"

Ron Paul yells "STOP!"

Either Ron Paul is on the stagecoach with them or maybe ahead of them with his hands out trying to stop them. Maybe put some crags at the bottom of the cliff that read "terrorist attacks, recession, depression, devauled dollar, death of the middle-class, etc"

I like MaidenFan's idea too, but would suggest keeping Bush's thought short and sweet "Dang, when I said I wanted to bring freedom to Iraq, I didn't mean for it to spread back here." and just show a TV with Ron Paul on it.

That is a great idea! I'd like to see that!

I had a vision of Uncle Sam laying in a hopitsl bed with an I.V. in his arm (foreground). The I.V. bottle is near empty with a black liquid inside. The label reads "oil" or "The Fed" and Uncle Sam is in a coma with vital sign charts over the headboard like GDP, trade deficit,dollar crashes...etc. Ron Paul is standing over the bed (background) with a clipboard in hand making his diagnosis. The clipboard shows a chart like dollar value dropping or something poignant. The other candidates are making worthless reccomendations such as print more money to wake this patient up!, No screams the other lower interest rates!, a third says create another government program!. RP says, "remove the I.V., stop spending,lower taxes,less government, and a dose of the US Constitution Daily". Let me know if someone prints this up I'd love to see it. Your welcome to use if you'd like.

My Latest Ron Paul cartoon

After two weeks of racking my brain on how to express my anger at the news media's prejudice against Ron Paul, the muse finally visited me this Saturday morning. Check out my Ron Paul blog at http://northernnewyorkforronpaul.blogspot.com/

Have Ron Paul standing over on the right. Have Romney and McCain standing on the far left edge taking turns saying "No I'm more liberal." only to realize they've both positioned themselves to the left of Obama and Hillary who are looking at them incredulously.

I really like your cartoon. Maybe put dollar signs next to the bombs to emphasize that they are greedy war mongers.

Your cartoon reminds me of the Megadeth song "Peace Sells But Who's Buying?"

I posted an ad somewhere on this forum that could be made into a political cartoon. The basic concept is a guy trying to cash his paycheck only to find out he owes $40,000 as his part of the national debt. The bank teller notices his kids and makes it a quick $120,000.

I love it but would like to offer a slight modification.
McCain and Romney yell "Left!"
Hillary and Obama yell "Further Left!"
Ron Paul says "Right"

Make it painfully obvious that there is a path to the right that leads to Peace Prosperity and Freedom.

This will emphasize that McCain and Romney are both liberals and that Ron Paul is a true conservative.

I love your idea though. Nice work.

GOP house burning down.

RP ready in fireman gear with huge, shiny firetruck with hoses labeled, "fiscal conservatism," "strong national defense," etc., tapping GOP voter/"homeowner" on shoulder with one hand and with other hand pointing thumb back at fire engine.

GOP voter complaining about his house going down in flames but ignoring RP, "Blah blah blah...not now, buddy, my house is burning down...blah blah blah!"

All-Issue Surprise TV Ad Idea (funny but jolting)--could be a cartoon:

Idyllic mother in hospital bed with attentive husband—but both worried about new expenses of bigger family.

Nurse enters to give baby to mother, “Here’s your new addition.”

Mother happily takes baby but clutches baby with worried look as shadow falls over her face while we hear heavy bootsteps.

A large, overweight oil sheik is followed by a large, overweight communist Chinese soldier with AK-47 who crowd the family on the bed with loud bed-creaking.

Mother: “What’s going on?”

Omniscient narrator: “These are your family’s new additions to support. Out-of-control government welfare and warfare means that every household has a secret mortgage of $440,000, according to the comptroller general of the United States—and more and more of it you and your children owe to foreigners.”

Meanwhile, the large men start rummaging through her gift baskets, eating her fruit, and rummaging through her purse, stuffing her cash into their pockets.

Mother: “But I though welfare and warfare made us safer!”

Narrator: (chuckle) “No, they make us less secure and sell your baby deeper in debt to foreigners.”

The large men continue disruptions, making phone calls with her credit cards, knocking things over and breaking things.

Mother: “What can I do?”

Cut to Ron Paul, Cold War veteran, doctor, working hard in Congress and on campaign trail, with short voiceover (end war to rebuild overstretched military, end income tax and replace it with nothing to bring fiscal responsibility to America).

Cut to mother with baby in voting booth, smiling and voting Ron Paul.

Tag: Ron Paul, securing America.
