Obama cant even pick a good logo.....

So as I contemplate my political ideas and opinions on this past election, I decided to talk about something pertaining to the elections that really pissed me off. GOOD LOGOS NOT BEING USED!!!! I came across some logos for Obama that didn't get used for his campaign and was taken back. The official logo for Obama was very nice, clean, balanced, but lacked originality. It's unfortunate that the other versions of the logo didn't get chosen because....well.....the others were awesome. Yet, I guess this is just confirmation that whether your client is a small business owner or the president of the most powerful country in the world, they will almost never pick the best option (daily struggle as a designer).
