This shit is just outta control right now. I went to this event last night and I see dudes wearing rhinestone covered Barack Obama t-shirts. Wale said some dude in DC tried to sell him a Barack Obama watch. I think I saw some Obama Laser IV’s the other day too (packaged with the Spongebob Squarepants joints lol). But seriously, if I were Barack, I would hire a brand manager. I doubt he is seeing any money off the exploitation of his image and I think it’s wrong. I think it’s funny and maybe even kind of cool that people feel like wearing an Obama shirt is both a political and fashion statement, but think about the other side…someone, and not Obama, is making money off that. There should be an office in his staff that just handles branding and imaging and all proceeds should go to helping education or something really worthwhile.
