Liberal journalist Mark Twain has described Farmer-Labor as a dying party, while others claim the tide of Houstonian Progressivism has simply overwhelmed the populist laborism of old. Yet, there are others who call for a revitalization of the party, and as the primary system goes into effect once more the nation watches as the opposition must find a candidate to lead.
William Jennings Bryan: By 1880, the Labor Party had lost power, divided between Laborites and the Populists of Ignatius Donnelly, it seemed that death for Labor was upon the horizon, unless unity could be found, but it would be a task to find a man to unite the parties. Into the fray stepped 20 year old law clerk William Jennings Bryan, who almost single-handedly organized a draft campaign for his mentor, Lyman Trumbull, which would successfully bloom into a point of unity for Labor and the two terms of President Trumbull. After terms in Congress and a role as a Justice Department antitrust prosecutor under Trumbull, the 36 year old Bryan rose to the fore of the campaign with his declaration that Farmer-Labor must "strike was the iron was hot," with the masterful oratory of the "Great Commoner" being put on display once more with a eulogy of President Trumbull at his funeral in November of 1895, declaring that Trumbull had resurrected America after its crucifixion on a "cross of gold," after which Bryan formally announced his campaign. Since then the "Boy Orator of the Plains" has taken to the nation to stump for his campaign, personally travelling thousands of miles and promising to travel thousands more to campaign in the general election. Bryan's connections to Trumbull have made him popular with radicals, to whom he appeals with his calls for nationalizing railroads and telegraphs, while his support of prohibition have led him to win the support of John Bidwell. Bryan has stated support for President Houston's progressivism yet stated that it stems from the agitation of the people of the plains and that Farmer-Labor must remain independent as a party; he is an opponent of expansionism and moderate on the expansion of the military, while having opposed the Civil Rights Act while in Congress and opposing a land value tax and tariffs.
Mary Elizabeth Lease:: Being the first compromise candidate of the Farmer-Labor Party, the first woman ever nominated for the presidency, and the first socialist every nominated for the presidency, the landslide 1892 defeat of Mary Elizabeth Leas
... keep reading on reddit ➡I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!

... keep reading on reddit ➡but then I remembered it was ground this morning.
Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale
Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments
Pilot on me!!
Nothing, he was gladiator.
Or would that be too forward thinking?
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
