Barack Obama - Yes We Can music video

Can we rise above politics as usual and seek solutions? Can we realize that speaking of elitism while making tens of millions of dollars a year distracts us from the real issues? Can we recognize that talking of experience while sitting in an ivory tower is nothing but empty bravado? Can we understand that honesty and inclusiveness will ultimately be the only way to bring this country together? We, as a people, face major challenges. Pettiness and distortion serve only to distract us from solving the critical issues of our time. Choose wisely.

That is it. We can not continue this course and just think that it is all going to fine.

Does he actually say anything every. Yes we can? It's like when when my mom use to tell me "when you grow up you can be anything you want" We all know that its bullshit. The guy is a great speaker but so was hitler. I want to know how one plans on changing the world. Maybe he should make his minister be vice president at least i understand what he stands for.

Love '

P.S. The weather is great here, but on of course its been that way for the last 29 years.

He does in fact say quite alot. He is just eloquent in his delivery. Something someone with a college education such as yourself should appreciate. Youtube a whole speach or one of his town halls and you will see he has well thought out ideas. Look at how Mcain and Hillary want to cut the gas tax for the summer and Obama gives well thought ideas as to why that is a gimmick. He doesn't want to buy your vote. He wants you to think... Everybody else just wants you to react... Don't let them.
