5. I loved that they were using cardboard for their messages
This all happened really quickly I understand. The filming and editing. All artist driven. This is not an official Obama ad - just comes from their heart.

:applause:

6. It's come to good use, sonia.
I received this from a retired art teacher/friend(?). When I saw this video, I sent this video to REPLY ALL:

That should shut her up...or not.

12. I don't remember any songs for Kerry. Was it because u-tube was not
existent at that time? Or was Kerry not as exiting?

18. Love it...
I loved this video! Especially the little kid that wrote to appreciate your teachers...since I'm a teacher that meant a lot!
I hope that many others enjoyed it as well. This was a great way to share ideas that need to heard.

19. Kids for Obama
There are kids in Austin who are really working for Obama. And I mean little kids who are fired up. They are so cute.

Meet Tomori from Austin:

I've been phone-banking all day and I'm dead tired. But first thing I saw this evening at DU was your video, and I got better. Thanks for that.

Cheers. :)

One person said she played this video 10 times in a row, and is also listening to it just for the music.

Thanks.

32. I've listened to it a lot too
It's a nice little song. Good music. Good lyrics. It's a really good song with a great arrangement. It is a song you can sing.

33. One Hundred Percent POSITIVE message.
Edited on Mon Mar-03-08 11:31 AM by Divernan
I'm forwarding this to my "christian" GOP contacts. How could they, or anyone, disagree with any of the messages? A lesson to all of us that you don't need obscenities or hatred to get Obama's (or any decent politician's) message across.
