(1) Terrific photo spread. But quite honestly, I have never trusted Slippin' Jimmy. (2) Given Jimmy's age range, I seriously doubt that is the 'real' Teddy Roosevelt - probably a character impersonator. And (3) SO glad you did not use those four revised shots  -  LOL!!

I saw my duty Tony....there were other presidents I could have misrepresented, but none so charismatic as Teddy

Tony; if you look closely I believe that is Teddy III trying to trade in his grandpas old flivver.  As they say...if he looks like Teddy I and walks and talks like Teddy I...then it isn't a duck.  On a side note, it appears that Alice has spotted the glint of the  T-Man's whiskey flask.

I must admit that I got a bit emotional seeing these pics.  I have been hoping and praying that one day these two master pitchmen would team up.  What with Jimmy's diverse "staff" (in particular his "closer" monkey), his personal flamboyance and 45 gallon hat, combined with Cal's menagerie and rodeo ridin' skills they are a formidable force.

"Go see Cal and Jimmy...Go see Cal and Jimmy...Go see Cal and Jimmy"

I noticed that Sheriff Buford isn't present; obviously this sales kick off hasn't had the donuts & coffee delivered yet.

@perrone1 You may have noticed that Teddy III seems to be fixated on that '49 Ford coupe to swap his Model T over for.  It's rare to see brand loyalty in politicians these days....he will get my vote.....mind you I'm Canadian.

@john-barry Well.....it seems that in North American voting these days....anything goes.  Note:  This is not nor ever will be a political statement regarding the USA or Canada; nor is it meant to offend or criticize any persons politically affiliated in any way in said countries; copyright 2023.

On a more serious note though JayBee; I have given up voting and will remain of that status until the day, God willing, that Roger Kaputnick runs for office and names Teddy III as his running mate.

@jack-dodds.......... that`s a fine picture of Mr Kaputnick Jack......wasn`t he the hairbrain who went off with his bride in their new Winnebago.....discovered Lady Sasquatch............... and eventually went to live with her in the woods?

............................( I`m a bit tapped for ideas today) Blushed

@john-barry That may have been his cousin Leif Kaputnick, who was a bit more of an "earth child".  Roger is a very eloquent, polished, ascot wearing, pipe smoking intellectual.
