Folks, weÂre at the one year mark. ItÂs been exactly a year since Barack Obama was elected president and the question must be asked: How is Brand Obama doing? Take a look through the marketing lens and youÂll see that there are really two brands that make up todayÂs Brand Obama: Obama the candidate and Obama the president. Even though the election is long over, Obama the candidate is still hanging around . Meanwhile, Obama the president has not really arrived. Barack Obama has not transitioned into the White House. Even his staunchest supporters donÂt really feel like the man in the oval office is the change they have been waiting for. After all, Obama the president is so unlike Obama the candidate. Where Obama the candidate was bold, fresh and new, Obama the president seems like a big helping of big-government Democratic leftovers served cold. This is a dish virtually none of the electorate wants to eat and no one voted for....

lawn. What would make a
path attractive is using
