Announcing PolitiFact's '500 Promises' cards

Posted by Bill Adair :: Published on Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009 at 05:48 a.m.

Just in time for President Obama's 100th day in office, we've partnered with U.S. Games Systems to create President Obama's 500 Promises, a big deck of cards of his campaign promises.

They're available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or from retailers around the nation.

They're fun, they give you a chance to see the wide range of his promises -- and you can use them to play PolitiFact charades! (Imagine the fun trying to act out Promise No. 223: "Direct attorney general and homeland security secretary to meet with Latin American leaders to develop a hemispheric crime strategy"!)
