This looks like more of a joke making fun of people who keep political bumper stickers on their car long after they're relevant than someone who legitimately supported Nixon and Goldwater, but also Gore and Clinton.
Sure, but we know the car wasn't around for Nixon and such, so unless they bought 5 and kept them to apply to their replacement vehicles over the years.... Something else is about
Maybe they didn't have a car before but they did have the stickers, so they just saved them up? Or they had like an uncle who didn't want to put them on his car so he had a whole stack of them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I don't think I've seen a political bumper sticker even once in my life. I don't know if it's exclusively an American thing but it clearly isn't a Finnish thing. You're lucky to spot a bumper sticker, let alone a political one.

That's an expensive joke, those vintage campaign stickers are like $30 a pop.

The older stickers should also have more wear and tear, I'd think.

Pretty sure you can just copy them via an online sticker maker. They usually don't have any copyright checks in place.

The older stickers look brand new. Even if that car had been around then, they'd be super faded

Not old enough for some of those stickers

It's definitely newer than 1972.
I wonder where they got the stickers?

They could have had them printed

I wonder if you can buy them from somewhere?

I wonder if I should start using question marks after statements?
