obama

Singer-songwriter and former federal employee Kathleen Farris of the band FARRIS writes an inspirational alternative pop-rock song about Barack Obama called, "Obama-the time is now for change". Here are the lyrics: OBAMA: THE TIME IS NOW FOR CHANGE By Kathleen Farris © 2008 Verse I: In America we have walked through fields of red In America we have gone straight to the edge In America we have flown to the highest heights In America we have been both the victim and the teller of lies Chorus With Obama we have the eyes we have the skies the time is now for change With Obama we have the voice we have the choice the time is now for change With Obama we have the way we have today the time is now for change The time is NOW Verse II In America we used to be one, but now we're two In America there's still time, to pull through In America we have hopes, we have dreams too We reach out to the world in solidarity That we can all pull through Verse III In America, we’ve seen the rise and seen the fall In America, we’ve seen our troops, take a hit for us all In America we can turn this boat around We can change the course, We change it all The time is now

I was going to do a totally different remix, but when I was combing through McCain and Obama speeches, they both reminded me of something I have heard before. So I went back to Bush's 2007 State of the Union and BAM! See for yourself. I have yet to hear McCain or Obama talk about public transport, consuming less, bicycles etc. etc. Who you gonna vote for now America?

My name is Robert Florescu, I am a 19 year old college student from Denver, and this is an original song composed and written by me with a small insert from Schubert's "Ave Maria." The lyrics are based on Obama's speeches and the New Generation's hopes. Sylvia Florescu, my mom, filmed the music video. My 10 year old sister Felicity Florescu and I performed the song and dance.

Democracy at the PA primary - what will you do if your candidate doesn't win the nomination? Inspired by an abundance of polls, articles, blog threads, and punditry about high numbers of Clinton and Obama supporters who have said they couldn't back the other candidate, I traveled to Philadelphia the weekend before the primary in Pennsylvania to speak with voters about what they would do and why. All the triumphs and pitfalls of democracy are here: from record participation, thoughtful criticism and dialogue, to destructive emotional bitterness and ‘half-baked' arguments.
