Sorry, I don’t know why that posted twice. I didn’t do it on purpose.
If Jared can remove one, #74 & #75, that would be great!
I hate double posts.
YES! WE CAN AND WE WILL !!
Loves it!! Very inspiring.
I always like it when artists follow their passion. It is so good to seeing young artists doing things other than shopping and posing for photo-ops. Even in areas I disagree with it is better than them just sitting back complaining or partying.
i don’t like it! it’s to much!
Go Obama! Great video.
–read my blog at http://fashionpoirot.blogspot.com
Johnson Rod , yes I read about all candidates - if you are interested go to each candidates page. See what they each say for themselves then also read the counterpoints.
One thing that is really important to me is that I can not take another year of President/Congress not accomplishing much but bickering with each other
yay Kate Walsh!!
I love her! Go Kate, Go Obama!!!
choose good,americans!!!please,not another bush!!not another murderer!!…from spain…good luck!!!
It’s a sign of our times, knocking off classics.
What a pity.
Obama hasn’t earned the right to put himself in the light of someone like King. He pales in comarison.
What dismays me the most is that so many sheep and cattle are willing to follow someone who has yet to spell out how he’ll go about making change. I’m not talking about the broad strokes. I want details.
He hasn’t inspired. All that Obama has done is state the obvious. I didn’t need him to give me hope. I already had that. I want someone who’s going to put hope into action, to detail out how it’s going to be put into action.
This whole “I have a dream” approach is going to quickly become a nightmare. Mark it. You’ll see.
Then, the running theme is going to be “I told you so…, again” (ala Bush).
Sarah Wright/Mason is in it too, she’s standing next to Eric Christian Olsen.
he’s a very inspirational orator, and this country can definitely a president who can actually speak. but, isn’t this kind of sentimentality a little premature? at this point in election, voters should remain congnisant of their choice instead of singing pretty songs that only have effect on those who don’t know or dare to ask the hard questions.
very nice. but i wish famous people would stress more about just getting people out there to vote instead of pushing canaidates on people……just saying
WHO IS THE GUY AT 01:03????

on an unrelated note, it makes me laugh when scarlett tries to sing. i’m not sure if that’s what they were going for.
Nick Cannon is in there.
i don’t even consider celebrities real people…they should just shut up and go make money…but i just voted for Obama
SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION FOR HER ALBUM COMING OUT SHE IS SUCH A WORTHLESS ****
WoW - “Yes, We Can” , I love it. I want a better United States of America, I want CHANGE. Barack Obama all the way. “Yes, We Can”
love this video.
jared — i think you’ve mistaken another person for alfonso ribeiro. he’s not in this…
Stupid idea. souds ridiculous, just like all of Obama’s speeches
Yes because if everyone listens to a song we can do things like fix health care, the economy, the war, education.
Everyone knows the democratic party will run in the same way whichever person is president. Goes same/double for the Republican party.
There is no yes we can because it’s not a single power or group of people who can clean this up. It’s just delaying the inevitable. Take the good with the bad, it’s just how cycles work.
And these songs really need to go because it just feeds the celebrity ego, that they had a hand in ANYTHING in motivating people. It’s not celebrity singing, it’s education and making better choices that will save this country!
