The Campaign Logos of 2012


The Seal of the President of the United States is an iconic image - one that is instantly recognizable and conveys strong feelings about power, America, and Democracy. It is probably the most recognized political logo in the world, transcending party politics and ideological divides. As the 2012 Republican Presidential candidates start up their campaigns - they try to find a similar logo to represent and differentiate themselves.

Ashley Killough from CNN spoke with two graphic designers to get their opinions on how effective they felt the 2012 Republican candidates' campaign logos were. It's a fascinating read - especially since it's nonpartisan. The designers comment only on the style of the iconography, not the message behind it.
