LOCAL SPOTLIGHT : OBAMA FOAM FINGERS





I told you that I had family members who founded this movement so it's only right that I make them the Local Spotlight, especially with all the political climate increases with these debates. So let's give my folks some shine...
So the founders of the Obama Foam Fingers are Ajay Relan & Tenoa Stevenson of Los Angeles. Already engaged in the campaign through registration drives, phone banking and the like, the 2 felt they needed to make their own unique push. It came to them while watching a Laker game and saying how every kid loves foam fingers...then during a commercial break...an Obama commercial dropped. The vision hit them both, they looked at each other and already understood their call. They debuted them at the DNC in Denver and they sold out quickly. They have now concentrated on making them for orgs and thus scored the largest labor union (1.9 million members). They are now pushing to have them sold at Howard University's homecoming and other vendors of the campaign trail...and if Barack claims the presidency they know their will be even more opportunities. The "Fingers" can be found at the Obama HQ on Motor, the one one Crenshaw & 54th as well as the Democratic store in Santa Monica on 900 Wilshire. Get more details at www.obamafoamfingers.com
As you can see, some noteworthy people are already behind the product. GET YOURS!!!
