Most Viewed Liberal Bumper Stickers, April 22-29, 2008

The Print On Demand (POD) bumper sticker makers at Zazzle make a useful tool available to shopkeepers: statistics in rank order displaying the most-often bumper stickers viewed within a time period. The frequency of recent bumpersticker views on our Zazzle webshop (which sticks solely to bumper stickers with liberal messages on them) is an indicator of liberal sentiment about social and political causes of the day. What are these causes, and how do liberals orient themselves toward them?

The following are the ten most viewed liberal bumper stickers (not including our presidential election bumper stickers, which for purposes of clarity we rank separately) on our Zazzle webshop for the week of April 22-29, 2008:

1. Bitter: Ask Me Why

2. Customizable Bumper Sticker Against Right-Wing Congressional Kooks

3. Custom Candidate for Congress Bumper Sticker (Blue and Red background)

4. Customizable Congressional Campaign Bumper Sticker (Blue Background with Red Stars)

5. Support the Peace, Say No to War

6. Mark Twain Quote: “Loyalty to the country always. Loyalty to the government when it deserves it.”

7. Ben Franklin Quote: “Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

8. Is the Earth Getting Hot, Or Is It Just Me?

9. Fight Global Warming: Get On Your Bike!

10. Veterans Against the War

These messages are what liberals are looking for now. These searches capture the frequency of the liberal wavelength that’s resonating outside the presidential campaigns right now. Ask yourself: do they reflect what’s happening inside the presidential campaign?
