I just asked a few people I know to go to Barack Obama's website to learn more about him. I was talking on the phone so I just asked them to google for his site. Well, if you google for "barackobama.com", one of the first (likely ad-paid) responses is the webpage ""www.barackObama.com". If you're not looking closely, you'll mistake that for his official website. That URL, however, says "Welcome to Obama for America", nothing else, and does not let you proceed without providing an email and zip code. Folks who are just browsing for information get stopped here, not unsurprisingly. I can't blame them, I'd be unwilling to provide an email and zipcode just to look at the site. If this is a sign-up web page from the official Obama website, it should be made clear that it's not the top level official Barack Obama site, and a link should be provided to Barack's excelent, official home page. If it's somebody else's URL, perhaps the campaign could do something to try and take it down, because it's not helping, it's just causing confusion and turning off people who are looking for information. Luckily, I was still on the phone and I could tell them to try another response from the google search - that it was not the official site.
