I attended CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference), and wanted to share some examples of visual communications I saw. Looking through my tote bag, I’m struck by how eclectic the group was, as well as the reliance on traditional American symbols. (Note: Though I consider myself centre-right, I don’t condone all the views below).
CPAC booklet title page – You can’t go wrong with the Stars and Stripes.
Free State Project – Encourages a mass-migration of libertarians to New Hampshire to influence politics there. Porcupine symbolizes resistance to government interventionism.
Original flag design from the time of American Revolution.
“Gitmo Saves Lives” – The iconic orange jumpsuits, made famous by critical media coverage of the Guantanamo Bay prison, now used to support it.
