Obey does it's part for the election


As you all know Obey has came from the ground up. You see their logo everywhere they go. for those of you who don't know about Obey.. Obey is a street art, clothing line, and it shows us a different way of seeing politics. I'm sure that all of you have seen the shirt above. it comes in many forms. Yupp! Obey made those tees and now they are spreading wild like fire. One thing that I admired most about Obey is there strong passion to keep people inform about the debate. On their website they have updates about why Obama should be the next president by showing what propositions he goes for. In my opinion, I think this is a great way of connecting to another target group. They used a form of art to connect to politics. Art can bring such a hard impact on people. And maybe it helps to see it in a different angle rather than just the media telling you the updates. I also think that it's a great way to promote Obama for presidency because I don't think that Mc Cain would look good on a t-shirt. Maybe Palin, but she's a psycho woman on the loose.

For example:
"vote green on nov 4th
California League of Conservation Voters have just posted their endorsements for the Nov election. Take a look and decide for yourself. If you dont know whats at stake, this is a good place to start. Choose Responsibly!"
