Seattle's Best Presidential Hope Since Griffey

Has it really been 12 years since Ken Griffey Jr. ran for President of the United States? Tru dat! Our first black president shoulda, woulda, coulda! The man was brilliant, charismatic, gifted. Sounds like ... Barack needs Nike marketing gurus on his team.

If Griffey's White House bid feels like ancient history, fear not, Seattle. We have The Presidents of the United States to champion! Campaign posters have cropped along Elliott Avenue in lower Queen Anne. The Presidents released their new album, "These Are The Good Times People," March 14.

PUSA's slogan: "Dedicated grassroots involvement is key in any campaign, so show your PUSA pride! This is a time for change, and it begins and ends with you!"
