Wendell Willkie was the 1940 Republican nominee for President.
The joke refers to an incident at the 1940 Republican convention, when the head of a state delegation from the Midwest announced "two votes for Villkie" in a Scandinavian accent (notice the gremlin's own accent when he yells).
It became a meme for a few years...but then Willkie died of a heart attack in 1944.
@pleeppleep Yeah, a little hard to watch that part when the plane looks like it is going to hit a building, isn't it? I have the feeling they'd have to edit that part out today.
Back in World War Two, gas was severely rationed. There were A, B, and C cards that indicated how much gas you could get. A cards were the worst, C cards were the best.
@belledame3 Yeah, it is a topical joke. Today, those cards are used in restaurants for sanitary conditions. But wouldn't A mean the best in those days, by the way?

The scene of the plane flying toward the buildings would not have flown in today's cartoons, no pun intended.
