30reasons.org posters…

Elizabeth Amorose : Women comprise 51% of the American population and are clearly not a special interest group, even though Republican leaders often treat us that way. Through the Fair Pay Act, Obamacare, and his public statements, Barack Obama has demonstrated his commitment to women. What better reason to vote for him? For this poster, I used embroidery, a medium that evokes a sense of Americana. And it is an often marginalized or dismissed art form, much like the sex that practices it almost exclusively.

 

Woody Pirtle : Clearly, Romney is a good businessman but he can’t be trusted to look out for the average American. He’s already dismissed 47% of us and 52 of the remaining 53% should be skeptical that he’s going to watch their backs. His Romney/Ryan plan is focused on the remaining 1% and will strip away the progress we’ve made in the last 4 years. Let’s stick with Obama and keep moving forward. We can’t afford to go back to the failed policies that got us into this mess in the first place.

 

Tomi Um : High quality education makes fertile ground for students to aim higher and achieve their dreams. President Obama knows that educated students make for a better country and a brighter world.

 

Bonnie Siegler : Obama’s position on women’s rights, foreign policy, education, health care, the environment, marriage equality and immigration are all compelling reasons to re-elect him. However, for me, the most important reason (and one that affects all the others) remains the simple and beautiful fact that he CARES. I think that unique yet often overlooked fact deserves special attention. (Photograph by Pete Souza).
