| Description | Cartoon shows a group of old farm characters sitting outside a country store, commenting on the recent Republican and Democratic presidential conventions. Their comments deal with the fact that Roosevelt decided to run for an unprecedented third term; that he forced the convention to nominate Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace for Vice President and dumped his previous Vice President, John Nance Garner; that Al Smith, Roosevelt's long-time rival, bolted the party; and that Wendell Willkie, the Republican nominee, had until recently been a registered Democrat. |
