Cartoon Examination pt.5

1. This is cartoon titled "Campaign 2012", this portrays the supposed views of the American people.
2. The artist shows that Obama's 2012 campaign can not be the same as his 2008 campaign because the people either expected too much or believed that Obama did not live up to his expectations.
3. In the cartoon a campaign manager for Obama unveils his prototype for the poster that will be used for the 2012 campaign against a sub-par Republican hopeful, however instead instilling hope or pride, in the poster reflects uncertainty.
4. I believe the message is people that are in office for an allotted amount of time that ran such an amazing campaign in the past that inspired so many, can not expect such high hopes a second time around because in reality there is no way that the could ever live up to their own hype.
The political significance is rather rather high. If Obama runs a bad, bland, or uninspired campaign then there is a chance that a republican could take office in 2012. *then the Mayan calender will reset the world will be engulfed in flames and the world as we know it cease to exist (allegedly)
