The Homestar Runner body of work is essentially apolitical, as The Brothers Chaps have avoided using their work to express any political views of their own. Nonetheless, there have been a few references to politics in their work, always of a politically neutral nature.
Appearances
- Homestarloween Party — Marzipan, while telling her part of a ghost story, says that one of the girls in the story was a Republican.
- Email the show — Homestar Runner asks The Poopsmith if he would care to share some of his "poliktical views".
- Halloween Potion-ma-jig — One option for Homestar Runner to earn a stirring utensil from Bubs is to do a Reagan impression; though Homestar insists it is an impression of Keanu Reagan, not president Ronald Reagan. He can also be seen doing the impression in an Easter egg. He mentions economics and Oliver Cromwell (although likely intending Oliver North).
- Email secret identity — The magazine Scarfgirl includes the topic "Is politics bad?"
- Email 4 branches — Released shortly after the 2006 United States midterm elections, this email derives its title from the three branches of the United States government and includes Homestar Runner's head as part of the United States Capitol.
- Email slumber party — The King of Town complains, "Government ain't right!"
