Obama’s trying to “seal” the deal

June 20th, 2008, 3:41 pm · 4 Comments · posted by Dena Bunis, Washington Bureau Chief

But whatever the motives, Barack Obama today unveiled a new campaign logo when he made some remarks to the nation’s Democratic governors.

As you can see this seal’s Latin words differ from the ”E pluribus unum” - out of one many -  that’s on the official presidential seal.

Obama’s says: “Vero possumus,” which roughly translates to - you got it- “Yes we can.”

Take our poll on the seal and/or leave a comment about what you think.

If you look closely, you can see Obama’s logo over the eagle - a rising sun representing hope. And Obama’s seal is light blue compared to the dark royal blue of the official presidential seal.

And instead of President of the United States, Obama’s seal has his web site address.

    Barack’s Seal is pure cheeseball and juvenile. Will SNL jump all over this? I doubt it.
