Photoshop in Political Campaigns

I think the real issues in this case is not whether or not the candidate is good looking or not. Who knows maybe most people in politics do this and only he was caught. I am sure this is not the only forum that things like this happens. In fact I know a friend of the family who does something similar yearly on the family christmas cards. Its not that hard to believe, really its no more false than plastic surgery. I think the differnce here is a moral one. If someone is trying to earn votes or the trust of people and they think that looks may play a role in that, then it is a seperate issue. A moral issue and to me it reflects on the character of that person, badly. No, he wouldn't get my vote.

I think what you do with your own Christmas card is one thing (altho a little silly), but what a journalist does is another
