Saint Obama de Mo'Crats - Take 2
I've set up a website just for the Saint Obama prayer cards:
ObamaPrayerCards.com
They depict Senator Barack Obama as St. Martin de Porres and are part of my small effort to raise money for the Obama | Biden campaign. It's a fine Catholic tradition from the late Middle Ages & early Rennaissance to use political figures as the models for religious paintings. Venice and Florence are full of paintings, stained glass, sculptures, etc. of saints, angels, etc. with the faces of Borgias (and not just St. Francis Borgia), de'Medicis, etc.
It should be easier now to print & laminate / tape together the prayer cards.
