Series IX: National Politics is the largest series in this collection. It begins by looking at government in general, with jokes about political parties, campaigning, congress, and various departments and agencies. It then turns to each president’s term of office and the topics that dominated that time. Cartoons about particular campaigns are interspersed between presidential terms. After the presidents, there are a few politicians whose perennial careers defied chronological placement, and then a section about various states and regions of the country.
