Non-partisan Political Jokes
FYI: Don’t ever think it’s easy to find non-partisan jokes about politics! Enjoy…
I just saved a ton of money on my Christmas shopping by expressing my political views on facebook.
If Donald Trump runs for president in 2024 I’m leaving the country (not a political post – I just love to travel!)
Good thing I don’t see any political posts on my news feed
*In fact, my Myspace friends haven’t really posted much since 2010
I won first place in a political correctness competition the weekend…
*Though to be fair, so did everyone else
Why did the political theory class think their teacher was being unfair?
*He gave the whole class the same Marx
Among all the politically incorrect jokes on this sub, here’s my favorite:
*Benjamin Franklin was a great American President
You know the problem with political jokes?
*Sometimes they get elected
I told my friend that I never knew that Rage Against the Machine was so political, and that it really ruined the music for me.

THIS DAY IN HISTORY, Aug. 3, 1914: Germany and France Declare War on Each Other
On the afternoon of August 3, 1914, two days after declaring war on Russia, Germany declares war on France, moving ahead with a long-held strategy, conceived by the former chief of staff of the German army, Alfred von Schlieffen, for a two-front war against France and Russia. Hours later, France makes its own declaration of war against Germany, readying its troops to move into the provinces of Alsace and Lorraine, which it had forfeited to Germany in the settlement that ended the Franco-Prussian War in 1871.
Dr. Baumgartner’s New Research on “Public Support for Vice Presidential Reform”
Dr. Baumgartner has a forthcoming article in Presidential Studies Quarterly on “Public Support for Vice Presidential Reform.”
Abstract: This analysis explores public support for reforming both the selection of vice presidents and institution itself. Survey data shows some evidence that those who favorably view the concepts of political moderation and bipartisanship support vice presidential reform, while partisans and ideologues (broadly defined) seem to oppose it. In addition, there is a negative association between job approval ratings for Vice President Mike Pence and support for vice presidential reform. The only demographic factor that was significant in the analysis was gender, with females more likely than males to support reform.
