[quote=GRIZ326,270991]I looked up the donkey & elephant political symbols and here is what I found: "The donkey gained its acceptance as the Democratic symbol in 1874 as a result of Thomas Nast's cartoons in Harper's Weekly and Ignatius Donnelly's remark in the Minnesota Legislature, "The Democratic party is like a mule--without pride of ancestry or hope of posterity." The elephant became known as a Republican symbol also because of a cartoon designed by Nast and published in Harper's Weekly (November 7, 1874.)"
