Anyone know where I can get official Obama/Biden stuff
I looked on Obama's website and I couldn't find any. I was hoping to buy some stuff to contribute to the campaign as well as my donations. :)

6. OK. I guess they're sold out of Obama-Biden and so...
...one can't get Obama-Biden merchandise while simultaneously donating.

There is unofficial Obama-Biden stuff at www.zazzle.com etc.

4. Take the initiative!

I've been told that grassroots groups and individuals are being encouraged to find their own suppliers since the campaign is so swamped they can barely keep up with the demand. I had ordered through the Dem Store -- demstore.com? -- for the primary and some of my stuff had to be back ordered. I didn't get it until the primary was over, so they may be having difficulty keeping up as well.

I don't know where you're located, but if you can find a local merchandiser or distributor they can probably help you. Check online, and your local phone book can prove invaluable. You may end up designing your own yard signs, bumper stickers, buttons, shirts etc, and having a local company make them for you. Keep in mind that the more colors you use, the more expensive it can be. And if you can pick up merchandise directly from the factory, you'll avoid shipping charges.

Good luck!

5. I odered an Obama/Biden t-shirt last week
Maybe more like a week and a half ago. Of course, it was an offer I got in my email because I'm on the mailing list. Sadly, they're all sold out:

https://donate.barackobama.com/page/contribute/vpshirt

I'm sure if you keep hitting the site, or better yet, donate as little as $5.00 to the campaign, you'll find out when new O/B stuff is ready for sale.

9. store.barackobama.com is the only place online for official Obama stuff.

Unofficial stuff can be found everywhere. Hell, make your own design and have Zazzle sell you a shirt with it for $20.
