Don't Let the Republican Drive the Bus! #[nn]
In "Hi! Have you ever heard of the Common Good? That's great!", Uncle Sam temporarily steps away, leaving readers in charge of a bus that’s suddenly threatened by the Republican, who insists on driving despite his disdain for public transit. With a mix of the Southern Strategy and religious extremism, he vows to steer the vehicle toward privatization and harm, while the Democrat is dismissed with nothing but a few kernels of corn. As the bus bears the marks of neglect, Uncle Sam returns to remind everyone that real change starts with voting—because people deserve better, but only if they show up at the polls.

Uncle Sam has to leave for a few minutes, so he asks readers to make sure that the Republican doesn't drive the bus. The Republican says that he hates public transportation, but demands to drive the bus anyway. He explains the Southern Strategy and religious extremism, and promises to hurt people with the bus while privatizing anything good for the public. The Democrat asks for a chance to drive the bus, but the Republican fobs him off with a few kernels of corn. Uncle Sam, disappointed that the bus is damaged, says people deserve better, but will only get it if they vote.
