Barack Obama For Illinois State Senate

Back in ’96 the now superstar Web 2.0 politician by the name of Barack Obama ran for State Senate in the 13th District of Illinois, and there’s a T-shirt to prove it. Homage clothing is giving a portion of donations to CARE, a humanitarian organization fighting global poverty if you buy it. We find it to be slightly irreverent, and pretty nifty — just our kind of tee.

Anyone who has been reading this site since the beginning knows it was birthed during the 2004 presidential debates. And it’s probably no great mystery that this time around, if this site could wear a button, it’d be one for Obama. And if a website could vote, he’d be our choice for the next President of the United States of America. Well the bad news is, websites can’t vote, the good news is– those who run it, can, and he has my support. We believe in freedom of speech (you can thank America for believing in that as well), so as expected, you can comment away– but keep it constructive. Unintelligent flaming will not be permitted.
