It has been inspiring seeing so many positive Obama videos and blog entries. I found this video through Annie’s blog entry – Creative Campaigning. Make sure to check out her great links, including a link to Kathy’s blog entry on riding for change.
I love this video ~ Give Love, a song for hope.

VOTE FOR HOPE
by M.C. Yogi
chorus
Change begins when we believe / in a brighter day a better way to succeed / together we can make it better you and me / so we can be safe and prosperous and free
Ladies and gentleman beautiful intelligent / friends of all ages races and measurements / us citizens world wide residents / what ever your religion is or sexual preference / there’s no separateness one things connecting us / the planet we inhabit plus all the different elements / that’s the reason why we need a new president / someone who understands interconnectedness / and won’t go to war based on false evidence / who’s not addicted to oil and aggressiveness / who believes in global warming and he’ll fight pollution / instead of shredding and abusing our constitution / the candidate in 08 that we’ll be choosing / is Barack Obama cuz he’s gonna offer real solutions / lets get involved and offer all our contributions / vote for hope join the movement of the revolution
chorus
Change begins when we believe / in a brighter day a better way to succeed / together we can make it better you and me / so we can be safe and prosperous and free
I hold this truth to be self evident / it’s time for Barack Obama to become president / that’s why I’m calling to my nation and my generation / this is our moment no more waiting or procrastinating / we gotta make it happen; time for some action / it don’t matter if your black white asian latin / we gotta vote for hope; and steer clear of fear / regardless of the garbage they put in our ears / the talking head on the radio and television / spinning the facts treating us like we’re little children / but even with the propaganda they can’t stop us can they / cuz we know in our souls that we’re gonna stand up / & let our voices be heard word to the people / lets make sure this election is fair and equal / no more illegal war dying on a distant shore / and that’s the reason why Obama’s who we’re voting for / he can restore our reputation in the world / and that’s the reason why Obama’s who were voting for / so we can be prosperous free and feel secure / and that’s the reason why Obama’s who were voting for
chorus
Change begins when we believe / in a brighter day a better way to succeed / together we can make it better you and me / so we can be safe and prosperous and free

Hi Girasoli, wow awesome post. Annie’s post is so cool! Thanks so much for mentioning my post. I love all the positive energy going on and I loved this song. That’s so cool that you’re able to post the words. I really loved reading it as I listened to the song. I also think it’s cool how he mixed in some of Obama’s very inspirational speeches. I love it!
Go Obama! Whoo hoo!
Thanks for this very cool post!

Just wanted to tell you that on the way home from the rally yesterday, I saw a bright yellow Smart car covered with McCain and anti-Obama stickers. A Smart car with a not-so-smart driver, LOL.

It was wonderful. I’m SO glad I went even though it was more of an ordeal than I expected with such a huge crowd. But I’m so happy that so many people came out for him!
I’m a nervous wreck. Even though the polls look good, I’m not going to believe it until it’s a done deal.
I love the MC Yogi song! And the graphics are very cool. Another example of how Obama inspires people to be creative!
Have a great weekend!

Annie, it will be a memory you will have for the rest of your life!! I know just what you mean about not believing the polls until it is a done deal. As a lifelong Red Sox fan, we have learned for many years that the game is not over until the last strike/last out, even if our team is way ahead. Thanks again for the link to this song. I have been listening to it daily. Have a great weekend also!!
