Is Obama 'over-branding' himself??

This is a small article debating whether Obama has over branded himself, with too many attributes and sides to the man. Could prove useful further on in the essay stage.

Further campaign posters.

Another useful lnik for my essay shows an individual campaign, someone who has decided to create a series of posters promoting the presidential campaign of Barck Obama. It's interesting to see different people and cultures views on the campaign.

Presidential campaigns...

Looking back through previous campaigns for comparisons, and to see what works and what does not.

design influencing crisp flavours?

This is again part of the essay research, a slight contrast to the presidential voting, Walkers are asking us as a nation to vote for a new flavour of crisps. Interesting to see how Graphic Design is used to promote this.
