Kaya Pickens, is a graduate student attending Texas Southern University in Houston, TX, and  is anxiously awaiting President Barack Obama's visit to Houston and hoping for a chance to meet him, but in the meantime she has been thinking about something she can do to help his campaign.
Believing that he is the right man to continue the work he is doing to turn this country around, she had a brainstorm. I kept writing his name down on a piece of paper. I kept starring at his name. I listened to his "State of the Union" address repeatedly. Especially the part where he spoke of an America "built to last." Then, he said something about we've got to have each other's back. Then one day out of the blue, Kaya decided, I'm thinking too hard and that's when the vision came to me...
In the name BARACK is the word back....She's launching the campaign "Got Your BARACK or BAraCK; four letters stand out - BACK. I've got your back or We've Got Your BARACK or BARACK; either way, she hopes her grassroots campaign catches fire.
 
Kaya attended Missouri University - Columbia - on a basketball scholarship. During campaign season she vollunteered for Obama's first campagin. "This is where I really started to pay attention to the issues, including health care, jobs, the economy - but particularly education.
 
As she pondered her next steps after graduation - she wondered how she would attend grad school. She worked locally as a case worker and enrolled in college at TSU to obtain the master's degree. She recently separated from her job but was glad that she could remain on her mom's insurance while attending college. She owes that move to President Obama.
 
"My family doesn't proport to be politically savvy at all," we just know right when we see it and want to support it," she says, "and I believe President Obama is right for America." I want everyone else who feels he's right for America to join me by expressing themselves in style.
 
The shirts will be released in black, red, white and blue.
 
She planned to model after graduation but designers said, her behind wasn't right. She chuckles, "I guess they meant it was a little bit more curvy than regular models," she chuckles. Just like Obama has the right stuff for America- Kaya feels she has the right stuff for modeling - it's just that, the right person just hasn't come along yet to know what to do with it," she laughs. That sounds strange, but we're simply talking about my physic to model." Modeling the Right Stuff, she wishes to make it plain and clear.
 
"Got Your BARACK" shirts are available now and I'm thankful to Mr. Donatto at Academy Awards and my mom Eva for taking on this project for me. I have the vision - they too have got the right stuff, says an excited and exciting young volunteer and model-hopeful.
