Hit the Road, Barack: Newsweek Cover Calls For Voters to Oust Obama Aug 20th 2012, 21:11 It’s not quite Time’s breastfeeding cover, but Newsweek is generating plenty of headlines with its new controversial cover story calling for President Obama's defeat. The title says it all: “Hit the Road, Barack. Why We Need a New President.” Niall Ferguson delves into what he calls Obama's broken promises and budget failures, while advocating for the Republican ticket of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. In a statement addressing the cover, Newsweek’s executive editor, Justine Rosenthal, said they wanted to give readers a taste of both sides of the aisle. "These are arguments; they aren’t just reported pieces," she says. This certainly isn’t the first time Newsweek has had a controversial cover of late, having dubbed Obama “The First Gay President” earlier this year. The magazine's penchant for buzzy covers extends beyond politics: Its most talked about may have been of Princess Diana and Kate Middleton. Regarding the Obama cover, you can follow the link to read why the publication feels we need a new president, though it's really nothing new. If you're fired up to vote him out of office, the list of reasons Ferguson cites are likely why; if you think Obama deserves four more years, you either know the counter-arguments or you don't care; either way, it doesn't offer much insight.
