We just got asked to make 2 pairs of custom converse with an
Obama '08 theme!
It is exciting to have another customer on etsy...I wonder if it is Barak himself, since I'm sure he has some extra free time after the relief of becoming the democratic candidate yesterday.
The shoes should be pretty awesome looking...if anyone is interested in getting a similar pair there could be a whole Obama series of shoes.
Regardless of the impact this next presidential election will have, it seems that electing Obama as a candidate is a symbol of hope for people in this country who have felt powerless, upset, and silenced. It's stirring up and awakening something in our consciousness. I'm still learning about his policies and plans, but I am grateful that both Obama and Hilary's presence as potential leaders is getting people in our country to talk about things like sexism, racism and the unbalanced power struggles we experience everyday.
Shared Madness...politics for your feet! :-)
