(29,085 posts)1. We have a lot of old political buttons.
I have "Don't But Lettuce" and "Don't Buy Grapes" back.from the old supporting the UFW days, and mixed in with them was this gem:. "Nixon Eats Lettuce"! My mom used to run the Democratic booth at the county fairs and they must date from back then.

a bit of important history like that.
Gracias and a to your Mom for being there for the UAW back in the Day..
I think this is so vital and I appreciate that Joe Biden is recognizing it.. Who isn't grateful for our Farmers now in these Dangerous times to be out of our Homes.
