Cereal City Goes Ga Ga for Obama/Biden
by Bonney Kapp
Battle Creek, Michigan, home to Kellogg’s cereal brand, hosted candidates Barack Obama and Joe Biden at a rally this evening, where Democratic candidate for congress, Mark Schauer showed off this special edition Frosted Flakes box to the 17,000+ crowd.
Don’t look for it at your local supermarket, however. Kellogg’s only printed two.

Please everyone, I just had a dream that woke me up. Something told me to beware of the two people named Obam and Biden. Think about it. Take out the “b” in Obama and add an “s”, you have Osama, then add the “nla” in the middle of Biden, you have Binladen. Combine, that spells the Osama Binladen ticket. America, you better wake up. Somebody is trying to tell me something in my dream
The Obama-Biden ticket is generating a movement that hasn’t been seen in America in very long time. This will be a historic event in history when Obama becomes the next president of the United States.
YEAH…THOSE TWO ARE A COUPLE OF FLAKES!
Does that mean their both flakes? ??
This is illustative proof that Americans are tired of old kind of politics, they want to see change in Washington, elect someone who is inspirational to attract people for defense of a common ground. We, Americans accomplish more when we dig in each other potential that God has given. Frankly, after eight years of A REPUBLICAN president, we, middle class American have seen our advantages and benefits such as healthcare reach the roofs while our incomes trickle down. And we are no way convinced that Senator Mccain will use the Bush principle and bring another outcome for us. That’s what give Barack obama an edge because he is using an opposite approach than the one currently in use. I wish every american citizen buy a sticker of the democratic ticket and put it everywhere.
Wow. They drew a crowd of 20,000 in Columbus yesterday, and 17,000 today. Those are big numbers.
another marketing stunt
This is great. Too bad they didn’t really want to produce them. They’d sell at least 40,000,000.
I love it ,I love it ” go get’m tigers”.(cereal)
Our Lord and savior please have mercy and grace on the famlies that is fleeing for their lives. protect them from the storm and other mishaps. strenghten their love for each other. please strenghten their mayor,governor and mighty God give our president Bush strength , courage and wisdom. I thank Obama for his prayers and wisdom.
God is our friend
Jesus is our friend,He made the world for us to live in
and gave us everything,And all He ask is we give each other love.
let just love people, lets just love.
Don’t be surprised if Obama convinces/pays Kellogg’s to put that on the shelves. This is what Obama lives for.
Kellogg’s, you just gave the McCain/Palin popularity a good boost. Besides, Post and General Mills cerals are more nutritional and less fattening.
Has anyone else noticed how Obama holds his head in a snobby, better than thou way whenever he talks to a croud. The crowd could be above, below or on his level and his head is in the clouds. I think this shows the he thinks he is above and better than everyone else. Check him out the next time you see him live or on tv. What do you think folks.
Wont be buying them anymore.
After seeing this revolting display I will not buy Kellogg’s cereals anymore.
Junk food for junk candidates.
Boy they got that right , two flakes
Poor Tony
I’ll never buy from Kelloggs again.
As soon as I turn on the t.v. I have to see his face. If I had to look at his face every morning I wouldn’t be able to eat! Well Post has good cereals, cheaper too. All the democrats who need the government to give them hand outs might remember that!
two flakes
Guess I’ll not buy any Kellog’s products if I can keep from it now. How ridiculous. Obama & Biden on a cereal box…unbelievable.
I’m not a fan of theirs.
I beg Americans to think long and hard before they vote…don’t listen to the rhetoric Obama spews out of every breath. It’s BS. I know sales and personalities, and all he is…is a great salesman. His record sucks. What is it to vote “present” on everything…and take no real stands…cause all you’re doing in planning and raising funds for your presidential campaign. Biden is nothing more than a lifetime politician hungry for power and control of everything. These two, I’m convinced will ruin our nation.
I really, really hope people will look at the candidates records, look at their CHARACTER…and choose someone like our forefathers would have chosen. I think they would be proud of McCain and Palin. They are the real deal. Perfect? No. But great.
We’ll, Obama and Biden certainly are are flakes.
Cool, I wish they would print more, put them on the market,you know like a limited edition kind of thing.
At first I was really mad to hear about this story but now I am really pleased to hear about it because now I know about the Kellogg’s company and I am never eating Kellogg’s cereal again.
how silly….I’ll never purchase a kellogg product again….that’s great and that’s a fact!

Mr. Fluff is at it again. BYE BYE KELLOGS
I will never buy any of their cereal again.
Obama holds his head funny? Maybe he should study how Miss Family Values, Sarah Palin, presents herself -

While Obama Bin Biden are still campaigning McCain and Palin are down in Mississippi seeing to the welfare of folks down there. Glad he didn’t go to New Orleans and be a security problem while they are having their hands full. McCain even cancelled a night of his Convention out of respect and thoughtfulness for the folks down on the gulf. But Obama Bin Biden are still going strong. Out of respect for his own people he should lay low at least a day or so. But no. I agree he looks snobbish the way he holds his head. Posture tells you a lot about folks. Kellogs is a brand I will never buy again. I hope people don’t fall for all the hype they are hearing from the Dems. This election is probably the most important in our lives. The Dems have no experience except for Biden. Do you want that as president if something happened to Obama. At least McCain picked somebody that has a good track record working for her state. I would trust her before Biden. He is the same old stuff we don’t need in Washington. Where is the change? McCain is showing us change in everything he does. Just my opinion.
Mase, why don’t you grow up and stop trying to scare people with outlandish ideas. It’s bad enough that you are saying this stuff, but why disrespect someone who truly loves this country. Hey, how about this: drop the “m” add “disgr” and replace your “s” with a “c” and you have “disgrace”. As in your a disgrace to what it means to be an American! You are what is wrong with America!
I think this is good and i will keep buying Kellogg’s cereal. Obama & Biden are great combination that would take the US to the Promised Land. We need a change from the fraudulent past that would be continue by the Man dat Cain
How about this? Let’s make this a level field for fair play. Kellogg’s should make a McCain/Palin cereal box also and put both on the counter in mass production across the USA and compare sales across the board. That could be used for polls. I’m such a GENIUS!
Just sent off a email off to Kelloggs telling them of their good deed for the day…they just helped me feed the dump rats…..I went through and got rid of ALL kelloggs products in my house, make those rats happy with poptarts and waffles…..lol
As much as I love Frosted Flakes I’ll never buy them again. It is stupid of Kellog’s to get involved in politics. They should know they are going to P*** off a bunch of the population … Dumb, Dumb !!
Is this serious…??? Please!
I think Kellogs would be so much farther ahead by staying out of politcs!!!
I always thought the Dems were more the Granola team,,,Fruits, Nuts & Flakes…
Watch the sales of Tony the Tiger plummet now!!!! Yea,,, sugar frosted flakes,,, the sweet ones,,,, enough said,,, I bet I could go on with that for awhile,,, let me grab as cup of coffee!!!! YUK, YUK, YUK!!!
People,
Stop being so petty, and look at the facts of this election. Don’t let the media decide the next President, based on a cereal box. Examine your homes, your income, your healthcare, your kids future, your gas prices, and your mortgage payments. Look at all these things and based your decision on what affects you! For those of you who say “I’ll never buy Kellogg’s again, well the reason for you not buying them, won’t be because Obama/Biden are on the box…Soon or later you won’t be able to afford them!
Let’s not be fooled again. When George bush ran for pesident promise all kinds of things bipartisan healings. He let us down. He had a good record in Texas as governor and based on that I voted for him ( besides being a republican for the most part). Take a very close look at the Obama tax plan and ou will see what it will do for you. Take good look at who is financing Obamas campaign and you will see how the special interest are doing it for him. He promises to end the war, you and I know he wont because we have interst in the Midle East. He sams to think that he an take on the oil companies; taking on the oil companies is taking on millions and millions of pension funds ans 401’s perhaps even his own. So we know he can’t do it. Hei s running on pure appeal. But he is no Ronald Reagan. He is simply a product of the same old establismnet. He is simlpy a new face in the midst of the old party. He did not become the popular person that he is because of his achievements . He is a guy with appeal. If he ( Obama ) gets elected we will get four more year of George Bush.
seems they should have used FRUIT LOOPS?
Or coco crispies / Loco crispies
I bet the republicans could fill solder field in chicago that would out do obamas denver speech?
obama/biden term would be a clinton 3rd term the most investigated terms in our history
and to think he picked a washington insider as vp, seems he is just changing chairs so the same washington politics as usual will be like clintons 3rd term
MASE, please give me a break with your so called dreams…. oooooo if I take the “M” off of MASE, and the “E” at the end becomes an “S” we have….
Well…if you count Kellogs that makes three flakes. I personally will vote for the candidate that should be on the Wheaties box (a true winner, and American Hero)…but wait- I’m not sure he would agree to such a silly little publicity stunt.
I’ll never buy from Kelloggs again
I will start to only purchase Kellogs!
Therrrrrrre Grrrrrrreat!!!!
The cereal too!
hmm…
Any good jokes on what a cereal with McCain / Palin would be ????
Cookoo for Cocoa Puffs is what I say!
Obama’s record sucks, at least he didnt vote with George Bush 90 percent of the time.
That comment by mase is silly, give us your name and let’s see what we can do about that!!
I think we need to stick to issues of the past eight years and welcome the opportunity to have someone that will not bring us down, but will bring us up to better standards.
I had a dream also, and John McCain was in it. It showed four more years of Bush economic policies, foreign policies, and it scared me!!
were is the money interest going? Talking about having your pockets full.
Charlie Goodman………
If you could get free food and drinks you’d go too.
This does not mean they are flakes…it means they are healtly and good for you. They help you develop your brains!!! These two man will make America the Amaerica of the past, when we respected, admired and loved around the world. They will twist the dial to make things fair at home. Tax breaks for the middle class, universal healthcare and smart national security (eat your Obama/Biden cereal).
I think they should also create a product for McCain and Palin. mmm…how about a Metamucil can to remind eveyone how stiff he is and how bitter and constipated that crazy woman looks.
Sorry to see this…
I won’t be buying any Kelloggs cereals from now on.
Kelloggs can choose to politicize their products and I can choose not to buy them. They made their choice; now I’ve made mine. Too bad, ’cause I used to like Special K.
Because of the insane endorsement of Obama/Biden, Kelloggs just lost all my business!
Greattttt!! Tony the tiger for ou next President and VP. Eat your heart out McBush.
Greattt!!! Tony the tiger for our next President. Eat your heart out McBush!!!! Republicans are runnig scared everyone likes Obama, while McBush has to go negative and whine to get attention.

Palin is a radical right-wing nut that wouldn’t let her own daughter abort if she was RAPED! Nice to know she is way out of the mainstream. Along, with a senile McSame that doesn’t understand the economy, you have a woeful ticket. Repubs must be hiding their collective heads in the sand. Try reading all the issues this woman has in Alaska and ask yourself if this one time pot smoking flip flopper with little or no experience on the national or international scene is someone you want to have one heartbeat away from the Presidency.
That is GREAT! Im so extremely proud of Barack Obama AND Joe Biden I cant stop following their developments! Its unbelievable and ALL naysayers know it! This is a dream come true for any American! Who hasnt ate this cereal? They should definitely mass produce them!!It would be a top seller!! Question for negative folk? Why wouldnt you purchase them anymore? I suspect something very fishy in your words!!!lol
Obama/Biden 08′
Visualize Soul On Sunday (LA)
I fully believe Obama to be an incredible orator. He is an enthusiastic and crowd stirring individual. I really love the fact that Kellogg’s illustrated to us that this is just what they are: Frosted Flakes. The icing is sugar coated but underneath they are still just flakes. All of my Kellogg’s cereal boxes are in the garbage and there won’t be anymore of them on my pantry shelves. Thanks Kellogg’s!
good for biden and obama! I hope they win
Good for them Ihope they win
Kellog corporate should find out who was behind this ridiculous display…their marketing dept or some cronie of the Obama campaign. Hopefully, their future sales will speak loud and clear.
As with other bloggers here, I will no longer buy Kellog products. In fact, I am throwing into the trash a brand new 18 oz box of Special K. There are plenty of other cereals to chose from.
Next week Quaker cereal is coming out with Mcshame face on it
I thought the lefty’s now wanted to tell us what to eat. I thought they disliked kids eating sugary cereals.
Considering the halo effect on the box, and the glitter and spin of the Democratic Convention, Obama and Biden are not just flakes, but “Frosted Flakes”!
Silly rabbits! Don’t you know the GOP tricks are for kids! The grown-ups are fixing breakfast this election. O’Biden 08-16!
geez… Battle Creek is just showing the public if you vote for the Dems, all you will be able to afford to eat IS cereal.
Okay Folks! Now it’s time to boycott Kelloggs.
IF YOU PLAN ON BOYCOTTING KELLOGGS? WELL, YOU WILL HAVE TO GO TO MEXICO ?
THAT’S WHY WE ARE WHERE WE ARE TODAY!
