Coining a new term
Obamaganda, (noun): pseudo-informational material, distributed through a variety of media channels, that is generally devoid of content, and designed to instill a belief that Barack Obama can save America from recession, racism, war, disease, and all forms of unhappiness.
Obamaganda can be distinguished from generic propaganda through its aggrandizement of a less-than-one-term Senator, and its frequent use of the terms "change" and "hope." These terms are generally used in lieu of Obama's actual policy proposals, which include massive new government programs, tax increases on the productive class, and an increase in wealth redistribution.

You should trademark that before the media picks it up, then watch the money roll in.
Trademark it like "19-0, Perfect Season"?
Actually, two other words that have entered the lexicon that I like: crimalien and crimmigrant.
I'm a little confused. Are you saying electing Obama does not equal instant cures for cancer, recession, poverty, terrorism, and all other societal ills?
If we're trademarking can I lock up "Obamanation?"As in, "This country has gotten so messed up, it's an Obamanation."
Also: "Obamaton"- any Obama supporter who who supports Barack in a mindless, uncritical automaton-like fashion.
See also: Obambie
Synonym of Obamaton except these poor souls wander about groaning about their condition in a desperate hunt for human brains.
