Political Cartoon Summary
I chose to analyze this cartoon by Beeler. The reason I chose to analyze this cartoon by Beeler is because I believe it shows what many people of this nation thinks about the Iran Deal and how this administration is treating our concerns while dealing with Islamic radicals who regularly chant death to America. I believe this is a perfect demonstration of what is people feel is happening in our country with this administration. This political cartoon depicts the state of the Iran nuke deal and what people in our society feel about it at this time. The cartoon depicts how the Iran Deal is highly criticized by many republicans who feel that the administration does not care about what they are concerned about with the deal. The painter also depicts the feeling towards Iran …show more content…

It also depicts how several people are affected by the effects this administration causes by ignoring the citizens. I believe that at some point we as one nation under God must stand for what is right and demand that this deal must be appealed. I also believe that this deal is going to be a disaster for millions of Christians, Muslims, and Jews in the Middle East. In the end this can only lead to massive amounts of human death and suffering by the hands of the terrorist supporting regime of Iran. I just hope that if this deal goes through, that Israel will be able to defend itself from Iran without this administration taking measures to prevent them from doing so, but in my opinion this administration has its own agenda that is completely opposite of what the people want in our country and it does not care how many die as long as it happens how it wants it to happen. In my opinion, this cartoon brings to light many of the ideologies from this issue in order to give the viewer a better ability to make his own opinion on this important

    In the cartoon drawn by Mark Knight which was published in the Herald Sun, the cartoonist expresses his opinion towards the AFL continuing to allow Ben Cousins to play football and under what conditions. His tone isn’t actually shown in the cartoon yet he expresses his tone by the sarcasm in his drawings, in a way revealing his feelings towards Cousins and the head of the AFL, Andrew Demetriou.…

    The video is a well demonstration of debt issues that the U.S. government faces. It starts with the tough economic condition that Obama inherited from Bush. Then, it talks about Bush’s centerpiece economic agenda: cut taxes, as well as the way Bush always put politics ahead of economics. After a serious of expenses related to two big wars; two enormous tax cuts; and a variety of new entitlement program signed by Bush had been spent, the economic began to go down. He not only squandered the entire budget surplus he had inherited, but started to confronting a stubborn recession and a steadily escalating budget deficit. Next, the video shows the bitterly partisan fight over Obama’s expensive economic recovery plan. The Republicans worried about if the plan goes well, they will get no credits for anything they have done. So they strongly disagree with this huge amount of recovery expenses. The main issue regarding of this plan is about reform healthcare in order to save money in the long run. However, it is difficult to persuade interest groups and politicians who have been battling over healthcare for a long time. Besides, it is especially tough to talk to Americans about the government are going to spend less on benefits in a recession time. In the end, this video talks about Obama’s budget, and the rigorous debt deficit condition that the U.S. is going through.…

    The cartoon that I chose is called Border Security. I find it very interesting that the cartoonist chose this type of background. Also having Border Security, NOT, and Amnesty all highlighted in red. The text in this cartoon is very unique to its time, because of the major focus that has been on border control. I believe that the cartoonist targeted a specific type of reader in this cartoon. That type of reader would be the nave and ignorant people focused on this topic of boarder security and bringing up unreasonable ideas as to why we need more border control and to send them back to their country. I also find it interesting that in this cartoon the Native Americans are talking about border security to each other, about the Europeans, just to find out that the Europeans in the future kill, rape, and steal the Native Americans land and people. To me it looks like the cartoonist is trying to get a point across that we need to take a look at ourselves and what we stand by, or perhaps the cartoon just may be telling us that this is a cycle. When talking about the exigence of this cartoon, the fact that I believe everyone should open their eyes and try to relate toward each other is my main motivation on writing about this topic.…

    Thomas Nast’s political cartoon, clearly depicts how Americans think and feel about Chinese immigrants in the United States. At a first glance of the cartoon, you see a defeated man sitting next to a wall covered in posters. You also see a beautiful lady defending the Chinese man against a rather angry looking mob as a building burns behind them. The defeated man is clearly depicted as a Chinese man due to his traditional Chinese attire. He disheartened by the fact that he is not welcomed into the United States and is persecuted by Americans.…

    It was a dark and confusing time, towards the end of the Civil War. The Union would soon find out how unprepared they were once the Reconstruction Phase started. There were many issues that needed to be handled, but the biggest one would be getting the Whites to accept African-Americans as citizens with rights. It was 1865, post-civil war, when Thomas Nast started to contribute to the views of public opinion through the use of his vivid political cartoons. Nast constructed three influential cartoons that helped change the views of Americans. He attempts to sway public opinion by depicting his characters as either good or bad figures, portrays the injustice Northerners and African-Americans faced, and mocks the conducts of the Confederates. Nast’s cartoons were extremely powerful; they allowed viewers to understand the problems that the nation was facing at the time…

    Just recently, politicians in the United States praised the treaty with Iran, but the public found many issues with it. Such as, the twenty-four-hour warning on when they are to make "surprise visits" to the Iranian nuclear facilities (Brookhiser). Furthering the American and Iranian tension, Iran's greatest leaders are now struggling to approach how they are going to make a peace treaty with their great enemy. "We have announced that we will not negotiate with the Americans on any issue other than the nuclear case," Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader said, "prepare for the continuation of the fight against America” (Erdbrink). Iran announces that it will only make deals with the United States on nuclear weapons in the hope of it leading to a friendlier relationship between Iran and other countries…

    The Crisis In Ferguson

    I chose Cartoon 8, and I think that the cartoonist’s message is referring back to Martin Luther King Jr’s “I Have A Dream” speech that he called to end racism in the United States. In the cartoon, there is a police officer that is shooting a MLK statue that reads “I HAVE A DREAM”. In the Ferguson case, there are claims that indictment that the white police officer that shot the black male citizen was because the male was black, so that was why the police officer walked out free. The cartoon shows that America is doing the complete opposite of what MLK dreamed of. MLK dreamed of being a country of everyone being equal, no matter if you were black or white. In the Ferguson Crisis, it’s almost hurting to see that these types of things get so out of hand with racism. That was not what MLK fought for in the American Civil Rights Movement. I think that the intended audience is those who were activists in civil rights so that they could see how naïve some people have turned because of this Ferguson case. I do agree with the intended audience because it letting those people see what has been happening in the country but I also can disagree because maybe those people are too shocked to even want to know what the country has turned into.…

    As the presidential election approaches, America is split, debating between Republicans and Democrats, but there is one thing that they all would agree on: the price of gas, and how ridiculous it has become. Over the summer, for the first time ever the national average for gas hit four dollars a gallon. I am going to guess that I didn’t have to tell you that- you already knew. Since most Americans are against high gas prices, it makes it easy for a cartoonist to publish works relative to the subject. Marshall Ramsey’s 2008 cartoon,” Make them wish for $3 dollar gas,” focuses on the role of the oil corporations in the highly inflated price of gasoline by depicting the company heads as greedy conmen swindling money from the U.S. citizens.…

    Designers of all political parties, not just the Left, are capable of encouraging positive and negative change in the world. Graphic Designers, Cartoonists, and the Mainstream Media, are all aware of how impactful a strong emotional response can be, especially before a political event or poll takes place. Designers and Cartoonists draw inspiration from the media and social issues and incorporate them into their work. It is especially important that designers conduct more research than necessary to verify news sources and to keep in mind the potential political bias of the news source they get their information from. A picture is not exactly truthful these days and it is important to understand that the media can easily turn a picture into something it is not. Designers should take caution in developing political campaigns that use media stories and images to create more…

    Many people didn’t know about the whole e-mail incident before they saw this cartoon, therefore they may look up some information on the internet. If it wasn’t for this cartoon, people from other countries or people who don’t care about politics probably don’t have a chance to know anything about Hillary. After reviewing the event, people can get their own opinions and ideas, and get involved in the discussion. As a reader, I get the some ideas from this cartoon, which Hillary is not really sorry for what she did, and she might only be sorry for she got caught this time and try to let everyone forget about this as soon as possible. It is not the case that everyone has the right to review all the emails to find out what she is hiding, but some government department should have the right to view all of them, because those e-mail includes government business, a country cannot define some email as “personal” email before investigation just because the owner says it’s “boring” and she thinks the government don’t need to see them so she deletes them. It just makes no sense, we can’t say for sure that Hillary is hiding something from the public, but we also know that it’s not just she uses all caps in those emails or put everything in the subject blank. This political cartoon makes me start to think about politics and have my own idea of…
