Doonesbury continues to entertain, inspire, and provoke with its unique blend of social commentary, humor, and political satire.  Chronicling the millennial state of the nation through the interconnected lives of its large cast of characters, the strip offers unusual perspectives on the usual suspects, and asks impertinent questions on the pertinent subjects of the day. In Duke 2000: Whatever It Takes Trudeau's Pulitzer Prize-winning strip tracks the end of an Internet start-up and the beginning of a gay marriage, the revival of an aging rocker's career -- and the complete reinvention of the irrepressible Uncle Duke.

Follows the president candidates of the 2000 American presidential election.
The election - as Honey says it - lowered the bar for political participation to the ground.
Duke runs for president with the agenda "Compasionate Fascism" aided by Honey, Mini D, Honey and Zonker.
The campaigns of Donald Trump, Elizabeth Dole and George Bush are followed by Roland Hedley - content provider for Yap network.
Mike becomes a dotcom millionaire and is ruined by Microsoft when he won't sell out and is married on a plane after much difficulty.
The collection is as humorous as all the Doonesbury comics. Despite the fact that it is current political comments, few of the comics seems dated several years later, and some are in fact easier to understand for someone who aren't keeping up-to-date with American affairs. ( )
