5. After seven years of Bush' disasters, the country
is hungry for something better. I think they are more and more pinning their hopes on Obama because he speaks to that need. I hope that, if he wins, he realizes the huge responsibility he has, not to disappoint. I also hope he gets the congress and senate he needs to accomplish the change, otherwise his hands are tied.

13. you will hate me for saying this
but the kind of hope and confidence Obama inspires in some of us is what Reagan inspired in his followers. Talk to a true Reaganite and it isn't that they like what he did, they just go on and on about "morning in America."

At least I agree with Obama's policy positions.

7. He's inspiring people to SING
I'm just taking it all in at this point. There's never been a political moment like it, and it won't ever happen this way again.

Enjoy it if you can, folks.

12. actually, there WAS a political mm sort of like it before
Vietnam and civil rights inspired lots of music. I've often wondered why not now as we need it as much as then.

And do, take it all in. It will shape you like nothing else...and make you stronger.

Know hope.

8. Here's another great YES WE CAN song
needs better audio though...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KK7UTaaSs40

WE CAN DO IT, YES WE CAN
JOSH WHITE, JR.

WE CAN DO IT……YES WE CAN    
WE CAN DO IT……YES WE CAN
WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER   

MAKE THIS WORLD A PLACE TO BE
WHERE OUR CHILDREN CAN RUN FREE
WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER

OUR COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS
IS GREATER THAN JUST ONE OF US
WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER

CHORUS


FROM THE DESERTS TO THE SEAS
THAT’S ALL PART OF  YOU AND ME
TO KNOW THAT….. WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER

LET’S STOP HURTING EVERYONE
BAND TOGETHER AND BE ONE
AND KNOW THAT….. WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER

CHORUS

WHEN WILL WE ALL ENJOY PEACE
I KEEP THINKING IN MY MIND
WE CAN SHARE ALL THAT IS HERE
FOR THE SAKE OF ALL MANKIND
WHEN WE WAKE IT WILL BE A BRAND NEW DAY
AND I KNOW THAT THAT IS TRUE
AS WE HOLD IN OUR HEARTS AND IN OUR MINDS
DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU’D HAVE THEM DO TO YOU

CHORUS

FROM THE CITIES TO THE TOWNS
AND THE PLACES ALL AROUND
WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER

WE CAN RISE ABOVE THE LIES
YOU JUST LOOK ME IN THE EYES
AND KNOW THAT…..WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER

11. who says the Obama people are the nasty ones? Sheesh
you do know, of course, that Obama had NOTHING to do with either of these videos/songs?

Of course, I would hate for you to let facts get in the way of your venom.

Is Fox paying you people or Hillary?

You are one nasty piece of work.
