Roosevelt Corollary
This political cartoon is on The Roosevelt Corollary. The cartoonist's
message on this issue is negative. It is negative because you can see
that Roosevelt is marching over the Caribbean Sea and leading in a lot
of boats. Another opinion that someone else might have is that America
was expanding and following its idea about expansion. One technique used
by the cartoonist was exaggeration because Theodore Roosevelt is not
really that tall. Another technique that the cartoonist used was
labeling, which is seen on the ocean which is labeled "Caribbean Sea."
This cartoon does support my position on American imperialism. It
supports me because I believe that Americans used too much force while
trying to expand.
