Won't way in on the racial stuff, its light hearted and fun, I don't see a thing wrong with it.

Anyway, the product itself has one major shortcoming, and it has to do with the way the piece itself is designed. All of Obama's "hair" is on the top part of the chia pet, with a rather large amount of neck and base that you do nothing with.

The issue is that by the nature of the clay, it constantly sweats and loses water. But, if you have used a chia pet before, you know this already. The problem comes in that the hair goes all the way to the top, and if you don't water this thing almost hourly, the top will simply not stay wet enough for the seeds to grow.

Mine ended up looking like Larry off of the three stooges.

The water does not stay in the top part of the chia, so even with repeated fillings, only the seed on the lower half sprouted! I'm going to try another round of it, but it's really not designed very well.

Who doesn't like a president with a green afro? After following the directions, and misting like the directions said, his head became moldy. I'm trying again.

For crying out loud! I don't see any racial connection here, I think it's a great collectors item....it's a Chia Pet!

You guys need to Ch- Ch-Ch-Change your way of thinking. There are more important things to think about.

I think this is hilarious. People are acting as if it's a secret that Obama has kinky hair or that is somehow a bad thing. It's not. Anyone offended is waaaaaaaaay too sensitive and basically has too much time on their hands. The fact that we have a black President is reason alone to lighten up. I've got more things to be offended about than a Chia head.

Before purchasing Chia Obama, I was dying of cancer, my car was due to be repossessed, and my wife wanted a divorce. Since buying Chia Obama, I am considered cancer-free, I won the lottery and bought a Hummer, and my wife and I are in love now more than ever. Chia Obama is the real hope and change, despite having no actual plan behind that!

My Obama has male pattern baldness. The seeds on top did not grow. It looked like there was some type of white fungus on his head. I guess seeds can't grow in bad soil.

My Chi-bama is awesome. I liked it so much I bought 5. When I look at it, I feel like Obama is right there with me.

Gave this to my son for his birthday and it was his favorite present. Funny as h---. However, he cannot get the "hair" to grow on the top of the chia's head. Has anyone else experienced a void there?

I purchased the Chia Obama as a "gag" Christmas gift for my brother. It was a waste of money. After a few days, a mold started growing on it and the seeds never sprouted and died. He had to throw it away.
