上面那支是黑眼豆豆為Obama做的MV,裡面有NY CSI和GERY及一些有名的電視明星。
他把Obama的講詞作成了歌~~超厲害。
It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.
Yes we can.
It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom.
Yes we can.
It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.
Yes we can.
It was the call of workers who organized; women who reached for the ballots; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land.
Yes we can to justice and equality.
Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.
Yes we can heal this nation.
Yes we can repair this world.
Yes we can.
We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.
We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics...they will only grow louder and more dissonant ........... We've been asked to pause for a reality check. We've been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.
But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.
Now the hopes of the little girl who goes to a crumbling school in Dillon are the same as the dreams of the boy who learns on the streets of LA; we will remember that there is something happening in America; that we are not as divided as our politics suggests; that we are one people; we are one nation; and together, we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words that will ring from coast to coast; from sea to shining sea --
Yes. We. Can.

Obama是誰?為何在短短時間內崛起,打敗了原本聲勢看好的希拉蕊?
****小檔案***
歐巴馬出生在美國夏威夷,父親是一位來自肯亞的留學生,母親是美國堪薩斯州的白人。歐巴馬先後畢業于哥倫比亞大學和哈佛大學,于1996年首次當選為伊利諾伊州參議員,2004年在伊利諾伊州首次當選為國會參議員,成為美國國會歷史上的第5位、本屆國會中唯一一位黑人參議員。
在2004年7月,民主黨召開全國代表大會,歐巴馬被指定在第二天做“基調演講”。所謂“基調演講”,就是民主黨人闡述本黨的綱領和政策宣言,通常由本黨極有前途的政治新星來發表,1988年做“基調演講”的人就是時任阿肯色州州長的柯林頓。歐巴馬不負眾望,他親自撰寫演講稿,並發表了慷慨激昂的演說。在演說中他提出消除黨派分歧和種族分歧、實現“一個美國”的夢想。
47歲的歐巴馬演說極具魅力,燦爛的笑容更虜獲許多民眾的心。與過去有意競選總統的黑人前輩相比,奧巴馬是首位在初選前民調獲得全國性支持的明日之星,成為2008年民主黨總統候選人的熱門人選之一的希拉裏的勁敵。
歐巴馬在短短兩年多的時間裏就已在政壇造成一股旋風,甚至有人把“奧巴馬現象”拿來與前總統肯尼迪1960年挾帶強大人氣進軍白宮來相提並論。
不過也有許多黑人表示對于歐巴馬並沒有認同感,評論家也認為競選總統他還稍嫌太嫩,歐巴馬需要努力的空間仍然不小。

此外,CSI本家還有人也表態支持了,就是 Jorja Fox,她參加了他的在丹佛的正式提名的造勢活動,並說她自4年前聽過他的演講後,就開始支持他。她在採訪裏說得超可愛的~~
Hi, I'm Jorja Fox. 我有時會出現在CSI,我不知道我為何在DNC出現,我很困惑. 我在丹佛市。我是開玩笑的啦!
我在這裡- 我感到非常榮幸的,我感覺我有機會見證這歷史的美好一刻,彷彿是被庇佑般。Yes we can! 加油Barak. Good luck, we love you. Thank you.
原來我有寫下對歐巴馬的心得,但偉大的痞客一再把文吃掉,我累了~再說吧!
*******
我也是希望Obama能夠贏得勝利,因為其實在美國種族和性別歧視仍存在著,雖然美國有很多人仍然不看好,因為在美國的中西部鄉下,白人優先主義仍是根深柢固的(或說是比較公開歧視的態度),還有強勢的宗教主義(比如說你點進我上方的youtube yes we can下方評語,就有人罵他是穆斯林黑鬼),但是至少這是個開始。
