Is it me or does this new Pepsi logo look just like the Barack Obama campaign logo?
The new logo was rumored to have cost over $1,000,000 to create. Look, I’m not saying they are exactly the same, but c’mon they do look like very similar. For what it’s worth, I’ve always been a fan of the logo introduced in 1971.

Interesting. I just saw an ad in the WSJ today (11/10/09) and thought it looked incredibly similar to Obama's logo and googled it. It turned me off to see Pepsi looking like Obama. Pepsi – like Coca Cola – are American institutions, and to be even close in appearance to the most radically left administration the U.S.A. has ever seen is appalling. GE shot themselves in the foot by getting overly cozy with the administration to the detriment of their shareholders, and Pepsi, if this is deliberate, will do the same.
Also, like the 1971 logo the best, with 1962 as a close second.
WTF, this logo is a disgrace, no one likes this logo, and pepsi must undo what they have done, and upon learning that pepsi is now publicly aligned with the obama administration by their actions, I will now NOT buy any pepsi at all until they fix this grand error, not because of which political party they are involved with, but because they got political, which they shouldn't have done.

I'm sorry. I do believe Reverend Wright has a “black cult following.” So yes, you people do the cult thing as well. He preaches to kill white men which if reversed white people would be called racists. (I believe it's called “black theology.”) Oh, and those chickens coming home to roost are White people sick and tired of black people pulling the race card when they don't even know what the definition of an actual racist is. And yes, if you'd studied anything having to do with Hitler and the 3rd Reich you would know that like Obama he too had his logo, his following and wanted to annihilate the Jewish race. Obama is trying to get “social justice” by annihilating the white race. The only problem here is, the people that didn't vote for him or believe in his BS are going to suffer along with the rest of the “believers.”

It would be far more accurate to say the Obama logo looks like the new Pepsi logo which was released just prior to the Obama logo, however take a look at the old Pepsi logo, it is even more similar. I have heard it rumored that the designer who did the Obama logo has gotten in some trouble for the design being so similar. (not legal trouble mind you, just a bad rep)
I agree the two logos are dangerously similar to each other. Also I agree with your logo choice of 1971.
I wish the bottles and cans would go back to 1971 logo. I absolutely do not like the new logo. I feel the same about the Mountain Dew logo as well.
if you can be controlled by a f—ing pop can methinks you have been using too much coke. you have an illumination problem–not too bright. why is it all of you wing nuts go staight to saying he is just like hitler. i don't know if you noticed he is black.
man i bet telemarketers love peolpe like you who have such strong wills that the sight of a pop can can be create such a response. better get those meds checked-you either need to re-dose or change medications.
I'm shocked that no one has researched the CEO of Pepsi who is a Muslim and the logo does have a definite significance.
You're an idiot!
I am a Pepsi employee. I deliver the pop daily to customers. I have people talk to me daily about our products and what new things we are coming out with. Never have I heard this stupid talk about the President's logo and Pepsi's being the same or tied together. In fact the logo was designed and set to launch way before obama made his logo. Before the new wraps and can images could be used production had to use up all the old logos first. It took quite a while for the old stuff to be used before they changed the graphics to the new logo which just happed to be released aroiund when obama ran for president. so to stop drinking pepsi because of a stupid color scheme and a wavy red white and blue logo. i think pepsi had the red white and blue wave a long time before obama was even born. Grow up and just drink the best beverage in the world PEPSI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Obama logo is an inverted Pepsi logo. It is a typical brain washing or propaganda technique to mirror a familiar object that people are subconciously comfortable with.Thanks for delivering two of the most poisonous substances to our children ; high fructose corn syrup and Aspartame.
I don't know if it was intentional or not but just to be safe….I plan to stop drinking Pepsi.
A coincidence?! Talk about ignorant. I suppose you also think it is “just a coincidence” that more and more advertisements over the past decade(s) have been emasculating heterosexual white males and depicting them as mindless idiots, that the vast majority of what is seen, heard, or read in the media is blatantly liberally-biased, and that nearly every business is now adopting liberal-friendly campaigns (promoting “greenness”, supporting interests that are exclusive to women like “breast cancer awareness” and women's heart health, etc.). It's appalling that any business would act as a propaganda machine for the government, and nothing even remotely resembling this took place during the Bush administration (or that of any other Republican president, to my knowledge). Pepsi deserves severe criticism for this, if not an outright boycott. I do agree that Obama “repersents”[sic] a new life; unemployment hasn't been this high in decades, his lackluster response to the Gulf oil spill is costing millions (or billions) of dollars, his federal spending policies are wasting even more money. By the way, are you trolling? How ironic that “annoyedatstupidity” liked your post.
hello i think Now, Pepsi admits it–the campaign was meant to look just like the Obama campaign!
I'll back again for sure, thanks for great article
Other than the both of them being round, and having a kind of similar coloration I see no similarity whatsoever. Its like saying apples and oranges are the same, because they're both kinda round and fruit.
Wow Jstu, you are an idiot!
Pepsi has now cheapened its formula. Notice the change in color of their cans this year. This is due to them reformulating and I would suggest they have gone to a cheaper fructose like Coke did years ago. The result is a watered down version of the original formula. Check it out yourself ! I really noticed it with their caffeine free Pepsi that used to be in a blue can.
My family has stop drinking Pepsi!!!! Because of this!!!!!
