If you liked the 'Yes we can' music video, here's another from Will.I.Am
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghSJsEVf0pU

It's another unabashed musical pitch for Obama - to the point where the chorus is 'Obama, Obama'. Again, directly uploaded by Will.I. Am, who has the talent, resources and drive to put a release-quality song and music video together. Didn't inspire me in the same way as the first one, but it's an equally personal example of artistic skill used to present a political opinion.

1. But I didn't like the Yes We Can video...

Nothing against Obama but, as a music lover i found it hard to listen to
It sounds like someone has the t.v. turned up loud while you are trying to listen to the stereo

on edit: the McCain parody video was mixed much better

3. Sure, it's not Mozart or anything
and I'm not really fan of the Black-eyed peas or Will.I.Am - I like a few songs, but I prefer glitchy electronic music myself. Just pointing out as an example of how the campaign seems to inspire people to join in with it.

4. Actually, it is very effective, as it shows the breath of his support
in the artistic community....and it further encourages young people to vote for Obama.

It is not as inspiring as the first one, because the first one was the first one, but I found it very well done, and "We are the ones that we have been waiting for" to be a motto worth an awful lot.

Thank you for posting this.

5. "I believe in Barack Obama because he believes in us."
Yes, we can.
