Obey Obama

Yesterday Obey released his endorsement poster for Obama (left). Which is great, as I love Obey’s style and I certainly hope that Obama wins - because he might actually change the rotten institutions of American politics rather than just keep the status quo.

But then today, quick as lightning, someone has gone one step further and created a text-generator using the very same image (my version, right). You can only guess at what’s going to happen when the Clinton’s get their hands on this, but at the end of the day it will be Obama’s campaign that wins, because no matter what anyone writes underneath, it’ll still be his face that everyone sees first and associates with Obey’s original messages of “Hope” and “Progress”.

And while we’re on the subject YouBama has just launched which is essentially a user-gen video endorsement site for the main man. So get upping and add to the groundswell of opinion for a (radical) change in USA Inc.
