The Power & Danger of Iconography
YouTube ^ | August 17, 2009 | Bill Whittle

Posted on 03/24/2010 9:49:12 PM PDT by Windflier

Barack Obama ran an unprecedented Presidential campaign - utilizing the power of design to help secure the seat of the President of the United States of America.

However, his iconic emblem, the ever present "O", holds more power than even Obama knows. Bill Whittle points out the dangers of branding an ideology with an icon and how, perhaps, the powerful symbol will be used against the very man it built up.

Iconography is powerful, and there's no denying that the Dems are kicking our butts in this area. Watch the PJTV video with Bill Whittle to see how the right needs to step up in this area.

I have no earthly idea what you intended to communicate, but I’m thinking that your tagline may provide a clue:

“Consumer Of Confiscated Liquers Czar”

(pssst....it’s liqueurs...)
