BARACK OBAMA. The Democratic Presidential candidate. To Thriving Ink, Barack is not so much a politician, but more of an inspirational statesman. Barack has stood by his views, even when they were very unpopular positions (the war, healthcare, etc.). He stands for change, like, actual change, which from my point of view, is exactly what our country needs. Pro energy and environmental conservation, makes him an ideal man to bring about change in this country.

To show our support for Barack, we have printed a line titled “Hope is Dope” by artist AJ Dimarucot. Thriving Ink will be donating a portion of the proceeds to Gawad Kalinga, an organization near AJ’s heart that is dedicated to alleviating poverty in the Philippines.
