The video is cool art and
The video is cool art and scoial activism, but it doesn't make a campaign.
Also, I heard something very interesting this afternoon on NPR. The commentator was saying that in primaries people aren't against one person or another, they are for one person instead of another. He compared it to picking an ice cream flavor. He said that just because you decide to have strawberry doesn't mean you hate chocolate and vanilla. I t struck me becuase it seems to me that so many Obama and Clinton supporters are being mean and saying devisive things about the other candidate; same with the Republicans. I think that we need to think a bit more like that than we have been.

Have you even made an effort to go to his web site and view his platform?
(link...)
Yes, I have. I've even
Yes, I have. I've even defended him on occasion. I've also gone to Clinton's website. I have read and discussed my way through the last few months and weeks, and now days. I am truly, at 10 a.m. on the primary day, undecided. Switching my preferences as I gain more info. I'm tempted, since he's still on the ballot, to vote for Edwards who was my choice anyway.

The video is magic! 698,934 UTUBE hits so far!
It ought to be quite a night! The polls show the whole game plan is shifting. The big delegate states are becoming a toss up. The Obama video has been reaching so many people (698,934 as of today) and making so many voters solidfy their support for Barack.
Just think if Hillary loses NY!
Barley's will be rocking.
