The red badge represents the Labour party I believe.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe red poppies grew in abundance in the fields of flanders soon after WW1 ended. Something to do with the severe disturbance of the soil and whatnot. Poppies were the first plants to recolonise the area around the trenches. I think that's why poppies are used to remember the dead.

That's it


I thought the Labour party wears some sort of red flower as well?

The Democrats want to be very careful about stereotyping those who live in "red states" because without those states, there will never be a Democrat sitting in the Oval Office.

The Democrats need to reaching out to 'Main Street' not alienating themselves from it. I fear that the out-of-touch far left will do the Democratic Party much harm. They need to return to the sanity of the ideological centre


This is an obviously bad idea - in reaching out to these intolerant religious middle america types, they'll lose both coasts - the real heartland of the country.

Clinton believes in God. Do you despise him as well?
