    This looks like more of a joke making fun of people who keep political bumper stickers on their car long after they’re relevant than someone who legitimately supported Nixon and Goldwater, but also Gore and Clinton.

        Sure, but we know the car wasn’t around for Nixon and such, so unless they bought 5 and kept them to apply to their replacement vehicles over the years… Something else is about

          The older stickers should also have more wear and tear, I’d think.

          EDIT: Also…there are people who definitely have unconventional political views, but some of those candidates are pretty strange bedfellows for one person to be ardently supporting. Are there many people who were fans of both Goldwater and Carter?

        Pretty sure you can just copy them via an online sticker maker. They usually don’t have any copyright checks in place.

        The older stickers look brand new. Even if that car had been around then, they’d be super faded

    I don’t think I’ve seen a political bumper sticker even once in my life. I don’t know if it’s exclusively an American thing but it clearly isn’t a Finnish thing. You’re lucky to spot a bumper sticker, let alone a political one.
