It’s a bird. It’s a plane. No, its president Barrack Obama here to save the world from devastation and destroy all evil! Photographer Stefan Falke took a picture in early November of a poster on a brick wall in Brooklyn, New York. The poster portrays Barrack Obama dressed as superman standing in front of an American flag striking a classic superman pose. This poster portrays how many Obama supporters feel about their nominee. He is hope. He is change (for the better). He is a role model for the rest of us to look up to. The citizens of the United States currently face some rough times. The economy is in a major slump, jobs are getting harder and harder to come by, the country is in a war that a majority of the people does not want to be in and are completely sick of, and almost everyone is in a state of discontent or disgust in regards to the current president (speaking of President Bush). And like humans do in times of darkness, the people look for a source of light. Obama came in during the American peoples’ time of need, presenting himself as a source of hope and an icon for change.
