IDK. Maybe Bernie should be happy they did not put up a shot with him, Mussilini, Franco, and Hitler? (which would have been in very bad taste, given that his mother survived the Holocaust).

I wish FDR and Eisenhower were around. They would comment that they knew Stalin, Mao, etc. and that Bernie is not one of them (apologies to Sen. Bentsen and JFK).

Whatever the case, this kind of advertisement must not be censored by the government.

@Spodula–
Bingo! Modified (perhaps with less inflammatory text), it could be used to decorate some barbershops.

I am struggling to get over how much it looks like a diagram of the evolution of facial hair…

In reply to great unknown. This has been a common feature on the left for about the last 10 years, now. Seeing as Trump isn't very far removed from that orbit, it's readily apparent why he looks like that. Well, that and his penchant for threatening lawfare if he doesn't like what is said.

Campbell v. Acuff-Rose, but it still would be expensive to litigate.

Um, Bernie, it’s fair use for parody, and it’s political speech. Good luck overcoming that hurdle. Pro tip: if you don’t want to be identified with those others, perhaps you need to review your own stance. Just sayin’.
