Barack the new President and now for the range of t-shirts

I maybe jumping the gun but we all know what’s going to happen this November, Barack Obama is going to be crowned the next President of the United States. Yes, it’s easy to be confident especially when you look at what he’s up against. The other thing is people are screaming out for change, American’s is ready for change!

The thing I’m looking forward to is the new president t-shirt range. We’re all familiar with President Bush’s range of t-shirts. There are some classic quotes including ‘anti-bush’ to ‘stop bush’ and a great one ‘Dumb and Dumber’ there’s plenty more. But what slogans are they going to come up with for Barack. So far in the campaign the only t-shirts I’ve seen on the streets of New York have been about change and images of him with Martin Luther King.

There has been a real lack of jokes directed towards Obama during this campaign compared to McCain. Are all the comedians and pranksters’ must be scared of being labeled a racist if they make jokes about him? But the last time I checked, you can still be funny and not have to mention a person’s skin color. Personally, I hope we don’t get stuck with a whole lot of t-shirts focusing on his big ears, let’s hope something sticks and we can have some fun with our new President just like we did with George.
