These Come in Handy - By far one of the most creative pieces of swag we saw on the row, these Obama puppets were selling like hot cakes. When we asked about his support for the president, the "Puppet Man," as he so vehemently persisted that we call him, said, "Of course, I support him! My president is Black. He's Blacker than Black!" (Photo: Angel Elliott/BET)

The Michelle Obama Book - We can't think of a better book to buy your little girl than I Am Michelle Obama: The First Lady. The inspiring book by Margina Graham Parker was a favorite with young African-American Dems looking to take something home to the kids. (Photo: Angel Elliott/ BET)

Painting the President - Perhaps one of the most gifted vendors on Obama's Swag Row was painter Andrew Nichols. His original pieces on canvas were inspiring to say the least. He was raffling the larger, original paintings off, and selling prints of the works of art for $10. (Photo: Angel Elliott/ BET)
