"If Obama doesn''''t win, it''''s a big disappointment," said Dorian Whyte, 18, who moved to New York City from Jamaica. "And I think if he does win, also, it can be a disappointment, if he doesn''''t deliver."

public high school in the poorest congressional district in America, students have kept journals since the early primaries, created election art, studied opinion polls in math classes, designed brochures on the issues, read memoirs by the candidates and even delivered speeches in their stead. And after the principal dashed around to plumbing supply stores for enough PVC pipe to build a voting booth, they got a chance to punch their own electronic ballots in a national mock election for students.

Obama is all over the place. You see his campaign signs along all the roads and his face plastered all over the newspapers and TV. Now you even see his face on a pair of custom Air Force Ones which have been designed by an artist named Van or Van20. Instead of a flashy colorway or the use of patterns and materials, Van used his pure artistic talent for these. Each shoe includes an image of Barack Obama which i have to say is pretty impressive. The portraits of Barack Obama are of two different facial expressions and the rendition is spot on. Besides the Obama portraits which are enough to catch the eye, Van has also included the two sayings which Barack Obama is always caught saying; ¡°Change¡± and ¡°Yes We Can¡±. All this along with a few stars, a simple grid pattern, the Barack Obama logos and some fading these custom sneakers are a pair which is defiantly unique in my book. Obama voter or not.
