Campaign poster idea for November 2012
  • Brutal_Truth February 2012 +1 -1 (+1 / -0 )
    I guess this is in the right category, outreach. I've been thinking off and on the last couple of days about how the OWS movement can interact with the average voter in the run-up to the November 2012 dog & pony show "election" and last night a great idea hit me. How about a campaign poster? I'm no expert in photoshopping but surely someone in the movement with computer expertise would be able to pull this off. I am envisioning a poster with a photo of Barack Obama morphed together with a photo of Mitt Romney (as he seems to be the likely Republican nominee), you know, combining their photos together to produce what appears to be a merged photo of both of them that one can readily tell looks somewhat like Obama and somewhat like Romney (e.g. with Romney's hair, Obama's ears etc.)

    The caption:
    "Billionaires for Bamitt Rombama in 2012! Because it doesn't matter who wins, the average American is guaranteed to lose."

    Agrees: slave

    How about a Bamitt Rombama riding a hybrid Jack Ass or Donkey / Elephant (? Assphant, etc.)?

    Dear Brutal_Truth
    Now, I think OWS need a warm and humanitary sentence as a poster for all time.My opinion is this "WE LOVE HUMAN WHO LIKES HUMANS"
