I'm not thinking about poster styles so much--though I think they are similar--as the convention of filming or viewing the subject from below to make it appear more powerful or heroic. Leni Riefenstahl did this regularly, whether the subject was blonde mountaineers or Hitler. The poster you attach uses the convention as do the Soviet posters Alex found. The Obama poster uses it as well.

It's all about conversation and where the thread takes you. The random threads, at least, allow for quick changes in direction.

Maybe we should just have one giant thread.

Iwas just at lunch and CNBC was on, and Obama's tax plans were outlined.

Be afraid. Be very afraid. It was ALL about raising everything under the sun. Corporate taxes, capital gains taxes, eliminating the Bush tax cuts, you name it.

While I wasn't horribly anti-Obama before and was simply a bit uneasy, now I am definitely anti-Obama.

Too bad you can't vote for Bush again....maybe the third time would have been the charm.

Oh my god, scaeagles disagrees with a Democrat on economic policy!!?!! Stop the presses.

For the record, Obama and Clinton differ very little in their stated tax plans. So much so that Hillary's camp is calling Obama's plan "plagiarisms" (rest assured, that had it differed more, the criticism would have been that it was "naive").

I'm being mocked for expressing that I think his tax policy is scary????

Hillary has scared me without needing to know much about her specific policies that I don't know about. Obama as a person doesn't scare me me, but his policies are starting to more and more.
