We Are The Ones

INCIDENT:
will.i.am made yet another video in support of Obama. Be inspired. Have a voice. What do you care about?



MORAL:
People say that Obama is just words and nothing more. He is more and words do matter. All the time in political arenas, people use words to inspire, to strike fear, to call to organize, and to place blame. The difference between someone you trust and someone you distrust is the amount of variance between what they say and what they do. We have seen the outcome of politicians who have conflicting actions and statements. There is little tolerance for these individuals. So words do matter.

However without charismatic leaders we are also at a loss. Little emphasis this election has been put the ability of a president to bring the nation together, or to inspire hope in a time when there is little hope left. Obama has this ability to unite the nation. We need a leader and not many people can inspire hope like he has during his candidacy. Imagine what he could do as president.

HI MT,
thanks for posting about the new Obama video/song. I had not heard about it yet. I liked it but it is not as inspirational or motivating for me as will.i.am's first video. :-)
