Pepsi: Plagiarism?

The new Pepsi logo has looked like this since October.


It's really not their fault it looks rather like Obama's logo.



But now, Pepsi's campaign also looks suspiciously familiar.

Obama:


PEPSI:


Dare we say, borrowed interest?


Why is Pepsi's campaign piggybacking on the election? Is it some kind of status symbol? I've read the news, so I get that a lot of this is about catering to us Millennials. But Chiat, I know you can do better than copy someone else's ads. Please, show us it's true.

And I won't even bother to quote what some say about the new bottle contours.
