Use Youth

McCain is old an uninspiring to almost all Americans, maybe some sort of political commercial showing Obama playing a sport, obviously with a political angle, but if he was showing his youth AND his political agenda at the same time, he would capture even more of the already young vote. This also may inspire more young voters to register, which is vital to Obama's future presidency.

A Generation With An Important Task

Obama Frisbees

I think it would be great if the Obama campaign sold Frisbees with the Obama logo on them in the online store. It would really appeal to young voters (one of Obama's key demographics) and the logo would look great on a Frisbee. I know lots of people who would buy one.
