 | Zoroastrians for Obama On the Go |
Here’s a little reminder for those Americans who are getting stuck on all the political pseudoscandals designed to divide us with the idea that only a few elite kinds of people are suited to lead us with the presidency. The USA is a lot more diverse than a lot of people understand.
Take Zoroastrians, for example. Zoroastrians are living here, in the United States, as full citizens with rights and contributions to make to our nation. Yet, whenever we hear about the important role of “faith” in the 2008 presidential election, we always hear about Christianity and the Christian Bible and Christian churches.
That singular portrayal of Christianity as The American Religion is outdated, and disrespectful to Non-Christian Americans. So, we’ve created a series of political bumper stickers for people of non-Christian identity, in order to enable them to assert their cultural identities at the same time as they promote the presidential candidate of their choice.
So, I’m happy to report that this morning, we sold our first Zoroastrians for Obama bumper sticker. It will soon be sent off on its way.
Psst… Christians… Don’t feel snubbed. We have a Christians for Obama bumper sticker for sale too…
…and Wiccans for Obama… and Seekers for Obama… and Mormons for Obama…
… we can all share the American national identity, unless we make it a small thing.

…so you have. Sorry, don’t know why I didn’t see that the first time through.

Oh, I see: you’ve got two similar sections. The “Who’s for Obama?” has a bunch of entries that “Who Wants Obama?” doesn’t.
Irregular Goods: For Progressive Resistance : A New President in 2008 : Barack Obama for President : Who’s for Obama?
New White House President Campaign Store : Barack Obama for President 2008 : Who Wants Obama?

Yes John, we have several different shops with overlapping scope. That’s because we hate to have too much clutter in any one shop. Irregular Goods is a pretty big shop already, because it’s about more than just the 2008 presidential election. The New White House shop, on the other hand, has more room to expand, with a few new section, as the year progresses.
We believe in trying out multiple, differing organizational strategies at once, because we really can’t anticipate which one will work. It’s the equivalent of a cat having eight babies at once, just in case one or two turn out to be weakly.
We hope all the kittens will make it, of course.
