I've occasionally worn a Hubert H. Humphrey campaign button I purchased on my shirt. Does anyone else ever wear this rather unusual fashion accessory?

I never leave the house without a Carter/Mondale button, don't you?

I frequently wear a Ross Perot button to school, which incites laughter from teachers and bewilderment from everyone else

Very cool.  Something I would love to do; I've always been interested in collecting campaign memorabilia.

I wish I had some.  Wouldn't mind wearing a Garfield/Arthur button from 1880.

A piece of advice: Don't wear things that make people afraid you might talk to them.

I wear things like this to political events only. I usually will wear a Ron Paul button, which I find brings a lot of attention from other young conservatives. I met a lot of people at the AFP summit in 2013 because of it.

I frequently wear a Ross Perot button to school, which incites laughter from teachers and bewilderment from everyone else
I also have a "Go Perot!" button....but I never wear it.

Not a common thing over here of course, but I did have a browse through some at a souvenir store during my visit to D.C....almost all of them were something related to Kerry 2004.

all my outfits are themed on the Liberal/SDP Alliance campaign of '83. I just want everyone to know my feelings about David Steel see?

Where is the option for "It is a sign the person wearing it has no life whatsoever!"?

I have an I Like Ike button permanently attached to my suit coat, and my government teacher rotates between Stevenson/Kefauver, Johnson/Humphrey, and Humphrey/Muskie.

This reminds me of a girl I knew who used to wear Prince Albert's portrait in a locket around her neck. Needless to say, I thought it was a bit odd.
