Edit, since folks don’t seem to get the joke: Obama’s campaign slogan was “Hope”
I did it!!!
Wait, wasn’t Obama’s campaign slogan “Yes we can!”
Bill Clinton’s was Hope, because his hometown was Hope, Arkansas.
Yes, but the Obama “Hope” poster is probably the most famous piece of campaign graphic design in at least 50 years.
Thank you Obamna! UwU
To be honest I think Pelosi had the biggest influence. She related to Biden on a personal level, knew him the longest, always treated him with respect, and voluntarily stepped down from her role as speaker, herself. Being older carries some clout, too.
Genuine question (not from the USA), why was “hope” the campaign slogan?
“Dubya” is a nickname for George W. Bush that was coined by newspaper columnist Molly Ivins. The name is a Texafied pronunciation of the letter W.
Dubya was the President from 2001 to 2009, in the two terms preceding Obama. Rumsfeld was Dubya’s defense secretary, and Cheney was the vice president.
