For me, Joe the Plumber has a negative connotation. In the Nixon years the White House Plumbers went to prison for their dirty deeds! Just use Wikipedia to search for "Nixon Plumbers" and you'll see the story of deceit as they tried to get Nixon elected. They became known as the White House Plumbers or "the plumbers".
Why does the current "Joe the plumber" want to have this kind of association? Is he ignorant of political American history?
Senator Obama wants education to flourish in our country again. Without education, ignorance will bring our country into a black hole. Joe the plumber appears to be a prime example why we need to make education a priority.
