Campbell Soup Co. v. Campbell for Congress involves a lawsuit over the 'Soup4Change' slogan and an AI-generated soup can design used by a political candidate. Trademark claims assert likely confusion, dilution, and unauthorized use of Campbell Soup's protected marks. First Amendment defenses invoke political speech protections, parody, and nominative use doctrines. The Hershey decision may influence judicial analysis of consumer perception and branding in political campaign contexts. The dispute tests how trademark law applies when campaign branding intersects with familiar commercial marks and when AI-generated imagery is used in political messaging.
