Reader Margaret, thank you for the tip.  This is my favorite so far.

Let me make it very clear that I think this t shirt is clever, but my comment is not meant to say I prefer Obama over Hillary.  I don’t think it is appropriate to share political views with people you don’t know, maybe that’s just how I was raised. So it’s no surprise I’m not a fan or a wearer of political ts.

Voting is a privilege and we should respect it as such.  If you are swayed by the popularity of a t shirt, I’m scared.

No, this isn’t “clever.” It’s sexist and racist.

And this is a democracy. Voting ain’t a “privilege.” It’s a right. 

Snap.

My own thoughts on political tees are that people want to be trendy and to vote for a certain candidate right now is the trendy thing to do. Ask 10 people wearing a political shirt to tell you why they vote the way they do… my guess is you’ll get a few “uhhhs” and a sprinkle of “ums”.
