Let the issues be the issue

This unofficial political ad flips the cards on the presidential race -- by changing the candidates' race. Designer Tor Myhren, the chief creative officer for Grey Advertising, throws color out of the equation for today's election by imagining John McCain as an African American and Barack Obama as a white man.

Is it just me, or does the white Obama bear a striking resemblance to Jim Carrey? Seriously, would Obama really rock that kind of haircut? I'd like to think he'd go with a cool, trendy mullet.

OK, maybe not. [ Let the issues be the issue ]

Jim Carrey??? EGADS!!! He's CANADIAN!!! That explains many things! :)

The unstoppable power of Barack Obama's genuine charm with John Edwards' pricey haircut. No! NO! No man should have that much power!

The Obama photoshopping is brilliant. McCain looks a bit, ehm, photoshopped.

Very nice! I love it!
(But if we really let the issues be the issues then Nader would be President.)

Obama looks the same, just different hair. Pretty funny though.

Real question is would you still vote the way you did? (Being Canadian it doesn't count for me but I'm quite happy the way things turned out. And if it was turned around like this I still think Obama would have won.)

Now Obama really looks middle eastern.
lol

To answer your question Jess, I would have voted the same. Us caucasians in America aren't as racist as foreigners or Al Sharpton would like you to believe. I'm pretty sure the voters proved that (while keeping in mind the Red states would vote Republican even if it were a gay black man with a retarded running mate... oops.. sorry Sarah). The "Bradley Effect" was a bunch of BS.

I can't decide who looks like George Hamilton more here...
