President Obama: Words for How We Feel Now

[bthemedia]

Beautiful production - I like how you let them pick out their own placard. Well done! Great tune to go with it. =)

[lifeinterrupted]

This is such a beautiful project. I favorited it last year and I must say, almost one year later I still feel Proud.

Great song. Fits the mood perfectly.

My words would be angry, skeptical, nervous, and scared. I found out about Emily from the Baltimore Sun's feature on the UN thing since I'm from the same area. HOnestly I think this is slightly propagandist, it is mostly an inner city and yuppie crowd of course they love Obama. Emily you don't have to travel far from home, just go to Carroll County, many parts of Baltimore County, or the Eastern Shore and the vast majority are apprehensive about Obama and his abortionism, weakness on terror etc

human - that was my favorite one.

I've watched this video at least a dozen times.

I just now noticed the juxtaposition at 2:22: "There is no message you're receiving" - and the guy is wearing earphones!

Excellent editing, Ms. Troutman!

Obama is the best leader we've ever had, maybe the most talented leader the West has ever seen. My only regret is that he doesn't have more influence and power. Honestly, if I could, I would make him King. He is the epitome of perfection in a leader and politician. He will go down with the great influential people in history, such as George Washington, Buddah, Jesus, and Mohammed.

[mrspeel7]

I think many people may read your comment as being a bit extreme - maybe it is! - but I must say, I am all for your sentiments to come true.

I am pragmatic - but I believe President Obama to be the most intelligent leader I've ever had the privilege of electing to that office.

He is not perfect, nor am I, nor are you, nor is anyone else.

But, I'm very happy to have such a thoughtful, educated, and contemplative person as Obama as our President.

BTW - you left out Lincoln! ;)

[rose484100]

no hes a liar and stupid. and raising taxes and putting us all in debt hes not god hes more like a devil thats why i dont like hiim because he just passed a million dollar healthcare reform putting us all in debt. why do you like him give a friekn reason

[braveTOMINATOR]

I don't like him. I was parodying the ridiculous almost religious following that Obama attracted between the months of September 2008 and early January 2009.

Do a google search on satire.

Luckily, the Goebbels-esch following that Obama attracted began to wane in February 2009, and has reached record lows now in January 2010.

The kind of bizarre unfounded adoration that the man had back then was unsettling and unhealthy. At least that phase has mostly worn off.

this video makes me cry, that is how moving this is. THANK YOU Emily, for capturing the moment so perfectly

[clovermuse]

Awed. Joyful. Excited. Happy. Anxious. (because of the Republicans who are behaving excruciatingly badly, as usual).
