A man with a slip of paper in his pocket that states “Senator-Elect from–” is stepping off a barrel labeled with a “$,” and climbing through an open window to a building labeled “U.S. Senate.” The door and the steps are covered with cobwebs from lack of use, and the steps are labeled “Patriotism, Statesmanship, Understanding, [and] Character.” Title quote is taken from the King James Version of the Bible, John 10:1.
