Will.I.Am makes song/video out of Obama/"Yes We Can" speech...

namkcuR · 02-10-2008, 02:39 AM

Didn't see any mention of this in any of the election threads here. Have you guys seen this? The Black Eyed Peas' 'Will.I.Am' made a music video, a mash-up of him and others singing the speech simultaniously with video of Obama giving the speech. It's pretty cool.

It's a beautiful video

Very cool. Let's really hope American's aren't as stupid as many people think and end up nominating Clinton.

Neil Young should hear this song/listen to this video and then decide if music can or can't change the world.

Let's hope non-Americans will stop confusing differences of opinion with intelligence or lack thereof. [/hijack]

And yes it's a cool video. Does anyone know of a good source of info about Obama, his views & platform etc? My general impression is that he's a bit more centrist than Hillary Clinton but I'd love to learn a bit more about him.

I would say he's a bit more to the left than Hillary actually, but I guess that's a matter of opinion. His positions and policies are all on his website www.barackobama.com under "Issues"

I didn't see her, maybe you thought Kate Walsh was her. Or maybe I just didn't see her. You mean the beautiful dark haired woman (Kate) or the beautiful blond holding the child?

Whatever happened to Carrie Anne Moss anyway, she's gorgeous.

Slipstream · 02-14-2008, 03:26 PM

That's her, Kate Walsh. I really thought it was Carrie-Ann Moss but then wondered why she'd be in the vid 'cause she's Canadian.

She's in drama coming out this year called Fireflies in the Garden with Julia Roberts, Willem Dafoe, Ryan Reynolds, Hayden Panettiere, and Ioan Gruffudd.

OK, thanks
