The Days After: Show Your Obama Pride
Barack Obama is now our president-elect. Congratulations to the supporters, donors, and voters who made this historic choice to change America for the better. After eight long and hard years, I am so proud that my country has chosen to look back to our founding principles and apply them during this election.
That said, it’s time to party it up with style. Here are some ways to dress up to show your support of Barack Obama’s win:
-Be subtle. Politics should stay out of the office, but there’s nothing wrong with suddenly wearing a whole lot of blue or all of our flag’s colors together. The patriotic look is always in style.
-Be…not so subtle. Buy up all the precious pins, shirts, hats, and other pretties. You could even decorate your car or dress your dog.
-Be a moderate. A simple American flag pin will show your support of your country and its momentous decision. A campaign button on your jacket is certainly an appropriate addition as well.
-Go quirky. Do something creative. Perhaps you could even dress to encourage others to write letters to the house and senate members as well as the new president. Put it on a shirt, and hand out some envelopes!
