No, I don't expect the President to fight these exploiters but it isn't right. Take the Obama gas station on Wyoming off Plymouth. The owner spent a lot of money to transform his gas station from your average gas station to an OBAMA gas station with the logo and the colors. He didn't do that as a fan of Barack Obama. He did it so he could attract all the Obama lovers to his gas station and on cue the fans will buy gas, lotteries and coffee. His gas is no different from everyone else's gas but it is OBAMA GAS.
