Change, yes I can

Barack Obama unveiled his newest logo on Friday. In true streetwear form it was a parody of the presidential seal that included his motto loosely translated into Latin and also keenly included his website address...no Myspace, though. :(

















Like all good streetwear logos it got rid of the old slogan and added a self aggrandizing one, this time "Obama for America." Personally, it's not the best I've seen, so as luck would have it spokesmen from the Obama campaign have been calling it a "silly mistake" and also saying it was simply a one-off that they hadn't planned on using again.

When delving into the realm of streetwear it is important to NEVER waver on your own designs. Just say you're paying homage and that it will help the larger entity, too.
