Barack Obama-Style Campaign Posters - Now For Everyone!

POSTED BY: TheInDecider

By now, pretty much everybody has seen the poster to the right, which Shepard Fairey (originator of "OBEY" and other meme-tastic viral stickers) created in support of Barack Obama's campaign. And while Fairey isn't affiliated with the campaign in any official way, they certainly owe him some Andre-the-Giant-sized kudos for epitomizing their candidate's brand in such a memorable example of wood-cutty Americana goodness. Just looking at that picture, we can't tell whether we want to vote for him, send him money, or offer a burnt ox upon an altar while singing the glory of his name. It's just that good.

But we believe in equal coverage under the blog, so we thought we'd share a few posters in the same vein, but customized to capture the spirit of other public figures:

Got ideas for more? Leave 'em in the comments, and the best of the bunch may make it into Part 2!
