Obama Funky Wrist Watch Photos: Time For a Change Indeed
Barack Obama’s likeness will undoubtedly be plastered on any number of campaign paraphernalia over the next five months including t-shirts, hats, campaign buttons, placards, coffee mugs and bumper stickers. One of the slogans being bandied about is Time For A Change We Can Believe In. Picture it on a wrist watch.
Because Obama is the candidate with a change agenda, Obama Watches.com has created wrist watches with clever slogans in order to get out the message. One watch says Vote Obama ‘08 Ready To Go! Fired Up! Another whimsical sentiment says Love Your Mama - Vote Obama ‘08. There is an iconic yellow smiley face and one with a patriotic stars and stripes background.
Serious political memorabilia collectors will undoubtedly be swarming. A hundred years from now these little gems will be worth a fortune.

As the originator of Obama for President watches, I wanted to make a few comments. While Obama watches are definitely a profit making business, part of our intent was to launch a viral campaign to support Senator Obama.
That is why we say on our Web site that you don’t have to buy a watch to spread a viral message that Barack Obama is the candidate of change who represents a turn away from the last 8 disasterous years under George Bush.
The way to spread the viral mesage about Obama is, if someone asks you what time it is say, “It’s time for a change.”
To keep up with the humorous and sometimes, not so humorous threads posted here, I would like to let Fark readers know that Obama for President watches are “Guaranted to be more accurate the George Bush, more trustworthy than Dick Cheney, younger than John McCain and three trillion dollars cheaper than the Iraqi War.”
Lest anyone thining we’re trivializing the brave soldiers who are risking their lives in the Iraqi War, we have agreed to give 10% of our profits fron the sale of our “Love Your Mama. Vote for Obama.” watch to a group called Hire Heroes USA (http://www.hireheroesusa.org/)that helps returning soldiers find a job or new career.
Two more things which we think are pretty cool. Three Obama for President watches have been accepted into the collection of the Smithsonian Institution. Also, I can’t swear he ever received them, but Friday night in Philadelphia, we gave a set of wathces to the Secret Service. They inspected the watches and gave them back to an aide who said he would see that the Senator received them.
Time will tell.
