Mall Store Specializes in Obama Products

Great call on this business model. Giving up Jesus for Obama. Ha. She would have been better sinking her money into a Sunglasses Hut, or one of them face on a hat kiosks. From AJC:

For a year, Roy and Bell Brown ran two mall kiosks — one devoted to Jesus paraphernalia, the other to all things Barack Obama.

But when the chance came to expand into a storefront at the North DeKalb Mall recently, the couple decided to settle on a single theme.

The devout Christians relied on their customers to help make the choice. Sales of their religious wares were lagging behind those of the Obama merchandise. So, two weeks ago, the Obama Zone was born.

With walls painted sky blue and red, this commercial shrine to the 44th president caters to serious Obamaniacs. Among its offerings: watches with Obama’s face; dangling earrings with an image of the first family, and a T-shirt featuring Obama as a superhero. Soon to arrive: sneakers with Obama’s image and underwear bearing the legend “Yes We Can!”
I wonder if these products are made in America?
