111. Hmm...campaign collateral.
Sat Apr 23, 2016, 12:32 PM
Apr 2016

As long as I have been involved in politics, which is almost 60 years, campaigns have made images, slogans, and other such collateral available to supporters to promote the campaign.

It appears that history is repeating itself in 2016. It's easier now, since a person can copy and paste such collateral and post it here and there around the Internet. I've seen lots of such things, from all of the campaigns, everywhere I go.

I imagine we'll see these and other campaign posters, etc. frequently as the campaign goes forward. Why would anyone be surprised?

Here's an interesting thing, though: You have posted a whole series of Clinton campaign images right in the original post of this thread adding to their availability to all and sundry.

I'm sure the campaign is grateful to you for doing that. And I'm equally sure you weren't paid to post them. Neither will others who post them be paid.
