I made this t-shirt because I think the two groups that have some of the highest stakes in this election are migrantes and iraqis.  If obama wins, undocumented migrants will be another stop closer in passing the Dream Act and for Iraqis they will be closer to seeing an end to this war that we started.  

I tried to make a t-sirt that said "Iraqis and Migrants 4 Obama" - but it just didn't look right - too many words and too many thoughts!  So since I research migration, I went with "Migrantes 4 Obama"  on the front and "migrants for obama on the back."   

America is a country made up entirely of migrants. The only real "non-migrants" are the American Indians - but unfortunately they were wiped out by the Euro/Anglo migrants. Unfortunately the US claim denies "migrants" from Mexico on one hand and blindly welcomes them to work the fields on the other hand.  Undocumented migrant  labor allows middle- and upper class Americans to have a comfortable lifestyle and the worst part is that we refuse to see that our economic policies (with the help of the Mexican elite)  has benefited Americans while unstablizing the entire Mexican economy. 

My vote goes to Obama - the person who is closest to defining what America means to me - an inclusive country trying to make sense of its identity rooted in historical hypocrisy. 

Get your t-shirt from zazzle - Grecia and i designed a t-shirt that you can buy in different colors and sizes for males and females.

I saw this on one of David's friend's blog, Dav Yaginuma - I agree - this is a very unique and fun  way to bring about awareness to this campaign!  Miss Landmine 2007  -
