Artful Politics

Barack Obama's campaign, Yes We Can song
Something moves me when I watch this video. Perhaps it's the prayer-like chanting of voices (echoing Barack Obama's "Yes We Can"), or maybe it's the black and white footage which recalls a memory of a time when the world felt safer--a time that much of the world struggled for its rights... Perhaps something calls to me from my childhood, that compells me to watch this vid. Whatever the draw, the creative person behind Dipdive executed a most artful, soulful, and hip delivery of any political message that I've seen.

Thanks Robert... I know, it did the same thing for me, too! I've been watching it at least once a day, since I found it.
