Is there any truth to the rumour that Obama has also countersigned these prints? I find that hard to believe.

Shepard Fairey โข Obama Prints, by melmoth on Jan 30, 2008 16:19:26 GMT 1, Yes, I am. Fairey has lost his marbles this year. The Philharmonic, Peace Bomber, Vote! and Obama sales have all been total shambles. Why on earth would you release a print which is only relevant to the US market at a time when most of them are asleep?
Also, a brief summary on the US election. The likely Democratic and Republican nominees at this point at Clinton and McCain respectively. Obama is a very strong candidate, but the US just isn't ready to go down the road of electing a black president. Clinton is seen as a more 'viable' choice. The main challenger to McCain is Romney, and he won't get through because he's a Mormon.
The ironic thing is that McCain is more liberal than Clinton in many respects, for example, amnesty to illegal immigrants. It would not surprise me at all if McCain ultimately won. Clinton is a very divisive figure, and the recent hardball politics displayed by her husband recently is not helping at all.

Thanks for that Melmoth. Very interesting but also very sad that colour (color) and religion and not policies play such a big part in electing the President.

I am really in search of this print. I'm an Obama supporter, from illinois and perplexed why they released them in the middle of the night for us.
if someone bought one just because it's a fairey and would be willing to pass it on, please let me know. I'll cover all the costs and shipping and would be very grateful.
I doubt i have anything to trade, so it would be a cash deal..
thanks,

Shepard Fairey โข Obama Prints, by melmoth on Jan 30, 2008 16:36:27 GMT 1, The McCain/ Romney one is interesting. McCain is what is known as a RINO in the US (Republican In Name Only). Romney is the clear conservative choice, and should be the candidate that the 'Christian Right' gets behind. But they just won't do it. They may change their mind now on 'Super Tuesday' (February 5th) on seeing that McCain is the front runner, but McCain now has the momentum. It may be just too late at this point.
February 5th will really clarify the situation for both parties.

You can't mention Romney without the Mormon issue. The 'Christian Right' and the LDS Church, historically, just don't mix very well.

I think you are looking at it a bit too simply. Color and religion play a big part not only in the 'point at the bigot' type of way but also due to their influence on candidates' personal beliefs, which influence their policies.

Shepard Fairey โข Obama Prints, by leumasdarnley on Jan 30, 2008 17:32:06 GMT 1, Romney is the only decent Conservative Choice at least he was a Governor of Massachusetts balanced the budget for the state something that hadn't been done in like 40 years. Obama doesn't have the experience for the position lets face it senators just don't have the responsibilities that a Governor has. But from a political point of view if Clinton is the Democrat's choice she will lose because MANY of Obama's supporters wont support her. Thats a W for the Republicans IMO.
I do wish the religious right would go away and start there own party and stop leaching into the Conservative ticket its getting old and as a Fiscal Conservative and business owner I feel that religion has nothing to do with the party has to do with business policies.
Ok now back to lunch I am done ranting

Rudy dropping out is further bad news for Romney, as he's going to endorse McCain I believe.

Exactly. If Romney wasn't a Mormon, he would be the Rep candidate in all likelihood.

It's certainly the case that many more have been flipped by our US friends.
If shep wants to investigate more closely then it is quite easy. One of the ones sold in the UK has item location listed as Brighton. It should be fairly easy to check his records. If he has only one Brighton buyer then there is the answer. Refund him. But don't refund the whole country.
