This one's for [info]ciaraxyerra: Obama as Lincoln.

Great collection of Obama posters in the windows at Treehouse Records.

i have seen that obama as lincoln poster before & it bothered me then too because of all the hateful things lincoln had to say about black folks & not being all that psyched about abolishing slavery. what is up with people canonizing lincoln as some kind of super-saint? also, doesn't the bottom middle poster look like cristy road artwork?

I must say that regardless of how I feel about the art in question, Obama has inspired a WHOLE LOT of interesting political art.

I definitely concur. My friend & I were commenting on that very thing while I was shooting these windows.
