No Obama Bumper Stickers Views

General Goods

Now, campaign bumper stickers have always seemed an excellent idea to me. They're a very easy way to send a simple political message ( My car and I like Barack Obama. Perhaps you should consider doing so also. ) to hundreds of other people per day. But there's a very real possibility that terrible driving could undercut any possible good that bumper stickers do. Every time you steal a parking space from somebody, Barack Obama is stealing that parking space. Every time you have to hit the brakes suddenly, Barack Obama is causing the person behind you to hit theirs.

It is perhaps not common, and perhaps easily dealt with, but there are plenty of nutty people out there, and every bumper sticker is an invitation to get your car keyed. Just last month, 60 cars in Orlando were spray-painted with anti-Obama slogans, including such racist nonsense as Oboma smokes crack (sic). Never underestimate the idiocy of your political opponents.

While a Barack Obama bumper sticker isn't exactly controversial, it's important to consider the consequences of plastering one on your car. Are you causing a net gain or loss for Obama's campaign through the message you send? If you let somebody back out ahead of you in a parking lot, that person will have a positive experience with an Obama driver. If you accidentally back into that person, they'll have a negative experience. If you run over somebody's beloved pet with your car, and the pet consequently ends up with bits of Obama-sticker clinging to their fur, do not expect the owner to be left with a favorable impression of the Illinois senator. We don't expect people to correlate Obama himself with the actions of the driver of the car, but our minds aren't always logical in the way they associate experiences. Just remember, no two things get people angrier than traffic and politics.
