Long before there were tweets and blogs, there was another way people expressed their opinions and philosophies to the public. The ubiquitous bumper sticker was, and still is, a way for people to make their views, voting choices, and sense of humor available to the world—or at least anybody who happens to be stuck behind them in traffic.
