The Obama healthcare logo makes a rather celestial plea for Obama’s health care reform plan. A stylized caduceus rises ethereally from the fields of Obama. Three heavenly stars grace its crown, while a faint bubble trembles above the silhouttes of expectant Americans. If Uncle Sam himself were tripping, this is probably what he would see.
I’d prefer a more down-to-earth logo–perhaps a big needle piercing a health insurance company–but obviously someone on the Obama team thought LSD-inspired patriotism was the most effective way to market healthcare reform.
What do you think of the new health care logo?
From a brand perspective it’s very consistent. It’s emotional, wispy, light, and “modern.” He’s built one of the most successful organizations in 24 months and continues to expand the brand. Think about if O was a small business… who wouldn’t want this type of success?
If O was a business I’d suspect I was listening to a one hit
wonder on the radio. This legislation has no real plan for sustaining itself. This is a monster with tenicles going in all direction, but no central brain to control anything.
Reform-Yes. A true understandable blueprint-yes.
“Modern,” yes and no. It looks like it was inspired by the default desktop background in Windows Vista. That would make it slightly out-of-date, which is what you’d expect from the government.
Its easy to see how Limbaugh could compare it with a Nazi swastika. If you are politically opposed to the Obama administration, this imagery is easily perceived as sinister and big brotherish. Its a little too much like a visual representation of the phrase “Hi, I’m from the government and I’m here to help”.
Every one of his logo artist creations are inspired by Communist art – retro 60s garbage and Chairman Mao.
See the “beams of light” in the background?
People are idiots to follow this puppet of George Soros, Axelrod and crew.
20yrs with terrorist bomber and Communist in Bill Ayers. 20yrs in Black Liberation Theology Church centered on communist principles and false “liberation” from South American communist churches.
Even in college he is quoted as seeking out Marxist professors.
Wake up America, thats a Commie design for the “collective salvation” of America.
So sad that people are so dumbed out these days, forgetful or truly ignorant of the past.
Yes, insurance company execs are “evil” and “greedy”
But so to are politicians like Obama and his puppet master convicted felon from France – George Soros.
Obama made shady deals with slum lord from Syria who was indicted in Chicago. The subsidized housing units were rate infested sinkholes for the poor who moved out of many of them and your Dear Leader did nothing, except of course cover his Chicato Thug butt and say he had “no idea” what was happening, yada, yada.
Same thing he said about the racist church leader he called father for 20yrs.
Wake up America, you got a Chi-town union loving thug running things in the Whitehouse and a crooked, convicted fugitive from France financing him in George Soros. A billionaire who manipulated vast markets, brought the bank of england to its knees and has no profited at Americans expense. Soros raked in a cool billion during the shake down of our financial markets.
I’m curious Mr. “Business Pundit” do you want to put a needle in Mr. Soros? Or, just continue to follow the blind demonization of free market enterprize by these Chi-town thugs??? Better Obama and Soros in control of our nations healthcare?
Sheeesh… wake up. This man has how many unelected, unaccountable Czars? This man hires a Communist as a Czar?
Are you kidding? You want to needle our insurance companies? Get a clue, stick a big fat needle in your own pompous butt and wake up.
Aaron,
Questions.
1) Did Obama not work with and dine with and become longtime friends with Communist Bill Ayers and wife terrorist bombers?
Where you ever complaining about Nazi symbols when Code Pink trashed our military? And Obama took in millions from their Communist inspired organization?
2) Did not Obama himself say he sought out marxist professors in college in his book?
3) Who is George Soros? Do you know? Did you know he is a criminal in France? Did you know what he did financially around the world to nations? That he is a thug crook? Worse than Madoff?
4) Did you know that Obama accepted the most money from AIG as a first term Senator?
5) That he hires communist as a Czar to work for a Free Society and Free Enterprize? Don’t you find that the least bit ironic? Communist do not believe in Free Markets!
6) Obama is backing scum bags around the world now, like the leaders in IRan, Venezuela and Zelaya, giving them absolute legitimacy, when they are nothing but thugs, killers and Commies. Obama blocked four Ambassadors from Honduras, after this small country protected itself from criminal actions by Zelaya to become Dictator for life!
7) Did you know that Obama’s childhood mentor was an angry black racist who was a communist that hated America and whites?
Final question: When will you wake up? This is not about race and it is certainly not about healthcare or caring for the poor. Otherwise, why did he leave all the poor in that housing project behind – brother????
It’s more than a little similar, it’s near an exact match to a Nazi poster with thousands of troops surrounding the logo. I hadn’t noticed it before, but the 3 stars also match the poster’s swasticka banners in the distant background. Wonder who the artist was?
This is the same type of thing that happened when the government used the title of “Homeland Security” very Hitler in reference. Hate the reference of Homeland. Now this with the Healthcare Logo, just a continuation of the same reference to Hitlar’s mindset, trying to promise the solution to all and then getting the masses to believe that his “Obama’s” actions are in the benefit for the common human. I have to laugh at our stupidity for letting all this to happen. Man! how stupid our citizens are.
I think the logo for Obama’s Health care initiative is as pathetic as he is. He is a so sickenly full of himself that he is using the entire American landscape and we the American people, as the backdrop for his love affair with himself. In November 2010 this sickophant is in for a very rude awakening.
It took my breath away…it’s Hitlers eagles symbol and it looks as though we have a 3 star gen/president.
Wake up America before it’s too late!!!
Why all the comparisons to Nazi’s? Were they also better at providing health care for their citizens then the US? I think a better comparison to the Nazi’s and Hitler would be George Bush. He forced his own misguided fascist Ideals on the world under the mask of spreading democracy. I also think it is sad that 50% of our country is protecting the wealth of the top 1%…..who are the puppets here????
1) It’s not about race. I wish that we had a black-yellow-red President. My only desire is that he have the character and the principles of George Washington.
2) That said, I used to roll my eyes at ‘conspiracy theories’, too. I thought that if a man sounded convincing, then he what he was saying must be true. Then I started LOOKING the dots. There were so many! Friends pointed out this, that. I rolled my eyes! Then I started seeing more dots. The dots are FAR TOO MANY to be random! I started CONNECTING them.
3) I did my homework. I found out that Obama was mentored in Hawaii by a black Communist who was a friend of his grandfather; said grandfather wanted a black mentor for his grandson. From the age of 10, this man met with Obama and became a father-figure for him. He went to college and sought out non-traditional American values (read, Marxist).
How was he funded in college? He was ‘chosen’ by Communists as a rising star. (If not, let him disclose his records. Prove it all untrue. He could squash ALL the questions with the truth…no problem! Get the criticism ALL GONE. WHY doesn’t/won’t he????) Friends with Bill Ayers. Bill Ayers wants equality for all….he sounds wonderful….but he wants enforced equality. Look a little deeper. It all comes down to the enforced equality that Communism provides.
3) I was a poll-worker in the Presidential election. I watched as probably 70% of the precinct came in and wanted Obama. Very few mentioned his principles. Almost all of them were glowing over the idea of a ‘black President’. I couldn’t legally talk politics with them. To my sorrow, I had to provide their ballots, doubting totally that they didn’t know of this man’s Communist training, background, and leaning.
My point is, that leopards don’t change their spots. Please people, LOOK at the comments that are being made, even the comments on this article. GOOGLE them and RESEARCH them to see if they are true!!!! Believe me, that so many of them are true that if maybe a few seem wacky, stay in there. You will find so many roaches in the dark corners that you, too, will realize that our precious America is getting earthquakes in her foundation, and truly evil people who want a one-world government have long-term agenda to bring our country down. They want it to first merge with Canada and Mexico, then divide the world into regions like the European Union, and then bring it all into the rulership of a one-world dictator. ~~~ Crazy???? PROVE ME WRONG, I double-dog dare you.
HINT: The health care bill is a major inroad. An inroad into our privacy, bank-accounts, and into Government Committees who will decide who gets treatment and who doesn’t.
Is this the American dream? Sure, health care has problems. But this isn’t the American solution. Maybe the Russian one.
“OBAMA UBER ALLES”
wow.
so obama is both a communist and a nazi?
he has reallt outdone himself, hasn’t he?
@Doro
I think you’ll find that intelligent people do actually change as they get older. They change their opinions as they find out more about the world. Maybe your comment says more about your intelligence than Obama’s political objectives.
As a Brit, I find insulting US comments about the NHS to be hilariously inaccurate, as I do the bizarre attitude to communism.
Here’s a thought: Britain is not a communist state – it never has been and it’s extremely unlikely it ever will be. Currently, both main parties in the UK are right-of-centre, even though one of them is funded by unions.
Many people complain about the NHS in Britain. However, the majority of people are very proud of the NHS.
However, the most important thing about the NHS is that it is not the only healthcare in the UK. You can have a private insurance policy, if you so wish. You can pay for private care in the UK, just as you do in the US.
For most people, the NHS is sufficient for all of their health needs. However, it is not the only option.
But, I don’t suppose the nay-sayers are in the US are at all interested in the truth – only in peddling their lies to support their over-grown egos.
Looks like a deth mask!
I really enjoyed reading your interpretation of Obama’s healthcare logo. Thanks for the laugh!
