Why would any one put George Herbert Walker Bush on a stamp? Well the obvious answer is that conservative Republicans wanted to honour him. They run the presidency and the Senate, and largely—the Supreme Court. So they can do what they want. Here in Wichita, conservative Republicans renamed the airport after Ike Eisenhower, even though he spent very little time in Wichitaor Kansas. He was a Republican even though he was left-wing compared to today’s Republicans. But we have city buildings named after Ronald Reagan, the president who is the most responsible for the far left lunge this country has taken since he was in office. I’m sure we will see Ronald Reagan stamps. soon.
Will there ever come a day when left-wing politicians from Wichita’s past ever get their own stamp? Will they ever get the recognition they deserve?
Earl Browder was a famous Communist Party leader here in Wichitaand no one every suggested we put his picture on a stamp. He was a communist. We don’t even put Democrat Party politicians on stamps. In fact, Kansas leaders are pulling such people’s statues out of our US hall of Kansas politicians to replace them with people that a lot of Kansans recognize, such as Eisenhower and Amelia Earhart. Kansaspoliticians have decided to remove Democrats that took part in founding the state of Kansaswith pop culture icons:

“In 1999 Kansaspassed a resolution to replace its statue of George W. Glick with one of Dwight D. Eisenhower, and to send a statue of Amelia Earhart to replace the one of John James Ingalls.”

Will there ever come a day, when Democrats, or progressives from Kansas’ past ever get the recognition they deserve?—not as long Republicans keep writing and RE-writing our history.
