YES WE CAN!!!

I know I am extremely late with posting this video. I was trying to figure out how to put the actual video up here. Yes, after all of this time, I am still trying to understand how this thing called "blogging" actually works. Unfortunately, I haven't figured out the way to post an actual video. So, I'm just posting the link.

This video by Will.i.am has taken the Internet by storm and has turned this election season on it's side! He got some of the big names to come in and support this cause. Here's a piece of what Will.i.am had to say (you can read the rest on the above website):

The Yes We Can Song
by will.i.am

I was sitting in my recording studio watching the debates...Torn between the candidatesI was never really big on politics...and actually I’m still not big on politics...but 4 years ago, me and the black eyed peas supported Kerry...And we supported Kerry with all our might...We performed and performed and performed for the DNC...doing all we could do to get the youth involved...The outcome of the last 2 elections has saddened me...on how unfair, backwards, upside down, unbalanced, untruthful,corrupt, and just simply, how wrong the world and "politics" are...So this year i wanted to get involved and do all i could early...And i found myself torn...because this time it’s not that simple...our choices aren’t as clear as the last elections ...last time it was so obvious...Bush and warvsno Bush and no war...But this time it’s not that simple...and there are a lot of people that are torn just like i am...So for awhile I put it off and i was going to wait until it was decided for me...And then came New Hampshire...And i was captivated...Inspired...
