Example of Symbolism:
"..... the crawfish should be the symbol of the United States. If you put an eagle on a rail road track and a train comes along, what's that eagle going to do? He's going to fly. But you put a crawfish on that railroad track and what's he going to do? He's going to put up his claws to stop that train."
