In the 2008 Presidential election,
venders turned huge profits by exploiting the image and message of Barack Obama
on everything from T-shirts to It's Time for a Change Diapers. This is nothing
new. Fame and social action has been exploited for centuries:
- Dr. Martin Luther King , Jr.'s I Have a
Dream (And So Can You!) Mattress - Harry Truman's Drop the Bomb Toilet
Paper - Paul Revere's The British Aren't the
Only Ones Coming Condoms - Edward R. Murrow's Good Night and Good
Luck Dildos - George Washington's PresiDenture
Adhesive - Abraham Lincoln's You Look Four Score
and Seven Years Old Anti-Wrinkle Cream - FDR's Nude Deal Porno Series
- Maya Angelou's That Bird Ain't Singin'
No More Pellet Gun - Henry David Thoreau's Civil Disobedience
Handcuffs - Bill Clinton's I Didn't Inhale
