This is something that always baffled me when this episode aired. Other than the Powerpuff Girls, and maybe even Betty Boop, Lisa's choices don't make a lot of sense.

Why is Miss Grundy here? Isn't she technically from the world of comics and not animation?

Why did she picked Louise Belcher? I get that Linda is an adult and Tina is a teenager, but still why?

Did the writers and animators have a limited choice of female characters in animation or didn't they even try?

Jughead for Prez

Sizing up the candidates, Mr. Weatherbee likes them all -- Archie, Reggie, and Betty become great orators. It is all about high minded rhetoric for him. Meanwhile, Jughead -- also on the ballot -- slouches along indifferently, and meets with Weatherbee's open disdain.

A tad curious. Reggie is then shown able to stuff the ballot for his preferred candidate. I am curious how the nominating processes for these two parties ordinarily run -- what issues dropped Jughead to the "Gold Party" and how did Reggie rise to the top of the "Blue Party" in the first place? And what does Dilton's computer program weigh out, exactly?

Yes, you know the outcome for this story. And you know the outcome for when Jughead consciously refuses to campaign and tries to throw the election to Reggie.

Samm Schwartz drew himself sitting on the step in the first panel. Or the stylized version of himself.

Punchline -- Jughead bought off his vote by selling everyone the speeches he wrote and they delivered. A message there, I am sure -- probably falls off the definition for "moralizing Archie conclusion" though. Anti-moralizing, maybe?

So I just learnt that Miss Grundy from Archie Comics that in lore she was part of the WAC, Women's Army Corps, during World War 2.

Since it's a Festive Day in America, I shall bring this up, the WAC is an all Female American Auxiliary Unit during the War, they mostly worked as Switchboard Operators, Mechanics, Postal Clerks, Drivers, Stenographers, Armorers, Bakers and many more Occupations within the Army.

Because they were in the Army and it was Wartime America, they needed to be in Tip Top shape, each member of the Corps was given a Fitness and Health Manual dictating Bodyweight Workouts for Arms, Legs, Core, Neck and Back as well as Skin care, Make-up and Hairstyle Advice, they even had a Section on designing a Personal Fitness Routine after Basic Training.

It sounds pretty Promising for an Auxiliary Unit, but not alot of people in America agree to this sort of thing as the Views were "Conservative" at that time, apparently they thought because Women in Uniforms were considered Sexually Immoral, which is complete Bullshit but oh fuck it's 1940s America, many People opposed against people joining the WAC by warning their Sisters that if they join they would viewed as Queer or Prostitutes.

My Christian Mind cannot comprehend the utter bullshitery of this because there is nothing Queer or Scandalous about joining the Military only that it's Dangerous and the only place that is Queer AF is probably the Navy.

Records say that loads of Christian Leaders in America were slandering this for some Reason and here I am Christian and I see no Fault in this.

But let's continue, many Women of Color joined the WAC, African American women get extra Segregation in their Civilian lives but in Training they learnt the same thing as their White Partners and were not segregated whatsoever, the First African-American Commissioned officer in the WAC was Charity Adams Earley.

Many women in the WAC Experienced so much heartache in the War that most of them don't want to be even KNOWN as Veterans due to everyone trying to cancel them for the Stupid views that they had, but after the War those who served in the WAC received the Women's Army Corps Service Medal.

Those who were also involved in the Manhattan Project, were awarded the Meritorious Unit Commendation; twenty women received the Army Commendation Ribbon and one, Captain Arlene G. Scheidenhelm, received the Legion of Merit.

Most men of the American Population thought that the WAC, and it's Navy and Air force Counterparts, or the integration of Women within the Military was Impossible but they did it, the WAC went on to be part of the Vietnam War and later during the WAC as a Branch of the Army Disbanded in 1978 and all Female units were integrated with Male units.

In 2015 Jeanne Pace, at the time the longest-tenured female warrant officer and the last former member of the WAC on active duty, retired.

Happy 4th of July! Don't be Sexist, believe in Equal Rights and don't be an Ass.

Enjoy your Independence Day.
