A license plate frame, of course, holds or encloses your license plate. But it sure can be used as a form of expression, too. Whether it’s to flaunt your individual style or announce to the nation your views and convictions, it’s up to you. Just see to it that you use your license plate frame to your advantage. Well, it’s more sensible that your car displays a great part of you rather than your car dealer’s boring and cheap-looking advertisements (unless you work for the car dealer or you’re the car dealer himself).

And it’s always smart to invest in those quality license plate frames. You have to consider how durable they are because that dictates how long they’ll serve you. Shiny chromed steel is a recommended material when it comes to these frames’ construction. It’s sturdy and even highlights the frame’s content. Check the graphics as well if they’re firmly applied with a permanent adhesive vinyl decal; one that’s weather-, UV-, and water-resistant.

Now for my OBAMAnia blog series as tribute to the President, here are some of my favorite Obama license plate frames. They’re hip and catchy, bold and celebratory.

You’ve got to be ready, though, for those admiring stares (or intrusive paparazzi!) every time you take out your car for a drive. That’s the price you pay when you have a good-looking frame to match your license plate’s visual value.

I’ve just witnessed history unfold this afternoon. And, boy, how I wish to always carry that with me. You know, like the line of a poem that resides in your mind… that echoes in your ears… that looks you straight in the eye… that would have Mr. Smiley hold up that annoying L sign because I’m starting to get really yellow cheesy. But, ye, exactly that kind of impact.

It’s official. He’s now President Barack Obama. He who has been blessed (what his name means in Arabic) among men to rule the most powerful nation standing on the crumbling side of the Earth today. He’s my President and I trust he shall rebuild America. Oh, he said during the inauguration speech, that it’s we who’ll be doing that. =P

So as part of my commitment to supporting my President’s dream, I’ve decided to set aside some thirty bucks (as my pal told me) for this remarkable license plate. It’s symbolic of ex-President Abraham Lincoln’s Bicentennial 56th Presidential Inaugural and 44^th US President Obama’s entry into the White House. Imagine, for that measly amount, I’m gonna be traversing the roads with two freedom fighters on my ride. Freedom from slavery, courtesy of Sir Lincoln and freedom from (looming—please, no!) depression, I really hope, courtesy of Sir Obama.

When you see my two heroes rockin’ down the highway at full speed, take time to think of all the freedom you’ve so long enjoyed.
