Looking with hope towards the ... what?

Obama runs a brilliant web campaign.
Classic web 2.0 (whatever...) branding.
Able to reach into the power of social networks for donations and preaching.
Simple and direct message. No bullshit. Clear and exhaustive program...
Walking the talk...

This is to mention of a small error... that does not take into account the fact that most people are right-handed and the positive look into future is in the top right (from their perspective)...

The fact that Obama is left-handed is irrelevant, the following image gives the wrong unconscious message... We look positively into the past...

Consider:



Marketing design people should know better.

[update 15/05] on higher abstraction levels this might mean: the race is over, or that obama is not going to ask edwards to be his vp... but im going too far, this is just a stupid collage not a 12th century Christian painting.

[update 24/07] yes that sucks... Edwards has another commitment after the US election on the 25th of November. So no chances he'll accept the VP. At least I'll be able to see him in person :).
