Love the song. One of my favorites. FYI, I've had to research Obama songs from across the world (for work). You would not believe the number of Obama songs out there. After listening to close to 3000 from across the globe (and I'm still not done), you start to see how shockingly large this movement is. If you're into Obama songs (or just want to see how far this has spread), I linked in my "favorites" on my channel 150 Obama songs that were my favorites... Just click on my name and enjoy...
My good friend of 37 years, Lanny Kaufer of Ojai, California, wrote this MLK, Jr.-inspired song back in 1980. He recorded it in 2004 for his album, "The High Road. This year (2008), with original producer Cody LePow at the helm, James Antunez was brought in for the lead vocals. Feeling that Lanny's lyrics are still timely in 2008, Lanny's son Aran created this video for it and in support of Barack Obama's campaign.

Thanks for a great song and video! I believe Barack Obama and Joe Biden will act in the best interest of the American people ... and the rest of the world.
YEAH BABY... O-BAM-A !!! I'd vote for this candidate even if his name was Virulent Diptheria O'Contagion, he's that good. undoubtedly the best living orator clearly and intelligently speaking for the values in which i believe. this song is wonderfully satisfying. as someone who use to work in the entertainment biz, i'd buy more music like this it in a heartbeat. could you please post a link for how we can purchase more music by Lanny Kaufer? thanks so much for the inspiring video upload!
Nice work. Unfortunately, the banks that comprised the "Federal" Reserve control all significant politics. They will take this world down come Obama or Bush.
Loved your song! Thanks.

I have judged Obama by the content of his character and not the color of his skin and found him wanting.
