January 20th 2009 will go down as an important day in American history where Barack Obama will be inaugurated as the country’s first African American President. Former pro boxer Mitchell Rose not only voted for Obama but strongly supports him. “Like me, Barack Obama is a fighter who supports change” said Rose, who will be in D.C. for the inauguration.Shortly after President George W Bush was almost literarily hit with a shoe in Iraq, Rose plans to hit the market with his own pair. Rose will be selling Barack Obama sneakers which were created for fans to honor our new President. The sneakers are available in black and white as well have the number 44 on the tongue in honor of our 44th President. The sneakers also have his smiling face on the ankle and “Obama” written on the heel. “Obama’s smiling face can literarily be seen a city block away because my sneaker glows in the dark “mentioned Rose, who first gained fame after knocking out popular boxer Butterbean.
Rose’s ultimate goal is to change the sneaker business as a lot of Americans, specifically minorities wear Nikes. Rose however is upset that he has never heard about Nike doing something positive for the urban community. “I have never heard of them building a recreation facility or anything like that”, exclaimed Rose. “I say lets change the sneaker industry with the Obamas".
Ten percent of the total proceeds from the Barack Obama sneakers will go to the National Action Network, a nonprofit civil rights organization in which Al Sharpton is involved with. Their motto is “No Peace No Justice”. “Al Sharpton is one of the few leaders who hast fought for minority rights for over two decades”, said Rose. “He is one of the only people who have the courage to stand up to the police when they are violent toward minorities. We also share the same lawyer Sanford Rubenstein”, continued Rose.
Rose also wrote a book called “Mike Tyson Tried to Kill My Daddy to raise awareness of the problems people who are from the streets face on a daily basis. His book also discusses Surveilivision and the James Davis Reward Fund which are two programs he will make official soon that will help financial and criminal problems in the urban communities. “These are great projects I’m working on that can help out the community in a short amount of time” said Rose, who also sells sneakers as well as playing cards of boxing legend Mike Tyson.
The sneakers are currently being sold for $59.99. Those who can’t afford or are not interested in the sneakers can still help out by donating $1, $5, $10 or any other amount, which would be greatly appreciated. The sneakers can be ordered by sending a check or money order to Rose Knockout Products Inc PO Box 691 Valley Stream, NY 11582, calling 917-861-0021 and going to InagurationObamaSneakers.Com or Amazon.Com. All Questions can be sent to presidentbarackobamasneakers@yahoo.com.
