1. Well, make friends with a screen printer?
That's what my mom has done, and we're going to talk to her about makin me up some simple yet profound tshirts. Mom supplies her with liquor at discount and I get cheap tshirts.

(in his late 20s) when he was in Vietnam Vets Against the War on a t-shirt. He was so spunky back then.

I was just going to start a thread about this! That's me in the shirt, and I printed it myself. You can buy one from me, I've been selling them. I'll put up more info in a minute, I'm concentrating on the olympics now.

5. Natalie Portman
was wearing a Kerry shirt just like that on Good Morning America. It looked like a real 70's shirt with the colorful rectangle around the iron on picture. It was very cool. The camera man kept changing the shot and getting very close to her face so that they wouldn't show the shirt.

8. I like it though
I couldn't wear it, I would constantly want to take a shower. I got a cool shirt with Obama's entire key note speech on it, the other day.

14. Yeah, he knocked me out.
I just love him. I'm from Illinois so seeing him have to answer that nut job is almost too much to take. Keyes is so far beneath him it is a joke. I love cool t shirts.

I designed the Edwards shirt in early July, but when I wore it to the DNC, I got a ton of press. Thanks for deleting the links to the people that copied it. I was on MTV news and broadcast TV networks, and here are some print appearances:

Yahoo News was the pic that was posted

Boston Herald, Aug 1, 2004.p. 25
Article: DNC Highlights and Bloopers
"Best John Edwards moment: Young, attractive women wearing 'John Edwards Is Hot' T-shirts around the convention hall. "

Citizen-Times (NC)
http://www.citizen-times.com/cgi-bin/article/archive/58798

San Francisco Chronicle
&paper=chronicle&article=/chronicle/archive/2004/07/29/MNG1F7V10N1.DTL

MetroWest Daily News, July 29, 2004
He's a hot one
Two young women roaming the halls of the FleetCenter drew some attention with their white T-shirts that read: "John Edwards is hot."

Boston Globe, Online
Un-Conventional scenes from the DNC
Forget policies and politics, this young delegate let everyone know how she felt about the vice presidential nominee.

Toronto Star, July 29, 2004
..."In anticipation of Edwards' speech last night, young female delegates wore t-shirts reading: "John Edwards is hot."

Washington Post Express, July 30, 2004, p. 10
HOT PROPERTY: Could this delegate's shirt become a Smithsonian exhibit?

Village Voice (NY) August 4-10, 2004, p. 36
Look For Obama Shirts in 2008
Harvard Student Maya Frommer (L) made a few "John Edwards is Hot" t-shirts just for fun. Then some friends of John Edwards saw her wearing one in Boston, hired her to make more, and gave her passes to the convention.

I sell them for $15 which includes shipping, so not only is it about the same price as the other guys, mine is the REAL one!

I've made a couple others:




If you want one, please email me at edwardsishot@gmail.com

12. How entrepreneurial of you! That's awesome! Hey, I totally understand.
Edited on Mon Aug-23-04 08:51 PM by SCRUBDASHRUB
It's like when someone plagiarizes one's writing (I was an English major). Have you gotten a patent or something where you're protected from other vendors ripping you off? That is so uncool of those people. Sorry to have caused you any pain.

Your shirts are cool! THE REAL DEAL!

18. re: what I am studying at harvard
After a brief stint with the engineering department and failing some premed classes, I am now a government major. I'm studying health policy, specifically. I'm very happy with the classes and amazing resources we have here for governement students.

Oh, and I forgot to ask, do you people "get" the Kerry shirt? Three purple hearts :)
