To mark Jackie Robinson Day, which celebrates the first African-American baseball player to reach the major leagues, McCann Erickson New York has created a print campaign.

The ad, which ran in USA Today, shows a picture of Barack Obama, the 44th president of the United States, above one of Robinson, who wore number 42 for the Brooklyn Dodgers.
