Anxious Moments: A Symbolic American Election Cartoon by Clifford K. Berryman This political cartoon, titled "Anxious Moments," by renowned American cartoonist Clifford K. Berryman, depicts a pivotal moment in the 1916 presidential election. In the image, Uncle Sam, the cherished personification of American patriotism, stands at the polling station, poised to cast his vote. The anticipation and gravity of the moment are palpable as he holds a ballot paper between his fingers, about to drop it into the ballot box. Behind Uncle Sam, two political animals, emblematic of the major parties, eagerly await the outcome. The donkey, symbolizing the Democratic Party, enthusiastically supports Woodrow Wilson's re-election, waving a Democratic pennant. The elephant, representing the Republican Party, backs Charles Evans Hughes' candidacy, with a Republican banner in hand. Wilson ultimately secured just over 49% of the votes in the election, making this cartoon a testament to the intense political competition and the symbolic power of the donkey and elephant in American politics. Berryman's satirical and humorous approach to the election process not only reflects the political climate of the time but also adds a unique and enduring dimension to the historical record. This cartoon, with its rich symbolism and intriguing narrative, offers a fascinating glimpse into the political landscape of the early 20th century and the enduring influence of American political cartoons as a reflection of the nation's democratic process.
