That darn Dana Summers

Send the prejudicial cartoon back to the drawing board [in print as Send prejudicial toon back to the drawing board; Dana Summers; letter].

Washington Post (September 23 2023): A15.

Dana Summers's Sept. 13 Drawing Board cartoon was ageist. I read The Post in the morning before I go to work. And I, too, am old.

It is a falsehood that older Americans are too tired to engage in the critical issues and would rather go to bed than think.

Dana Summers's Sept. 13 Drawing Board cartoon was an insult to President Biden based solely on his age. Unfortunately, this cartoon reflected a general fixation in the media on the president's age instead of his achievements.

Please stop encouraging age discrimination and focus on the merits and demerits of the candidates.
