It is our own consciousness that gets reflected in who we choose to lead us. What does it say that a man like Barack has made it even this far? It says a whole lot. If he doesn't win, no one can take from him or us what has happened. He is young and will be a force for the rest of his life... in this country and the world.
Great editing, even more wonderful is the old spiritual, sung so very well. How inspirational! Dan (And Don) thank you so much for your work on this....I'm sharing it with lots of friends!
Obama 08.....YES WE CAN! (holding on a little whi1e longer)
It's been way too long since I've been to the Obama blogs or watched your videos. This one is amazing. You always pair up just the right music with powerful images. Great job !!
And may I take the time to thank you for all you've done for the campaign. It's been a long road, but we're almost home.
Heartwarming. I'm doing my best to "hold on" until the election results roll in on election night. Your video captures exactly how I have felt through this incredible moment in history.
I'm so proud of my cousin Don! His musical talent, intellect,and beautiful spirit have long be enjoyed by our clan; now another demographic will hear his passion filled, spirit moving voice. (Wait till they hear you on that piano!)
I'm in agreement with you this is all history in the making....it didnt sink in with me until I saw Barack live at a rally here in Ohio.
Amazing video - Insipired me to get up on my day off tomorrow and go volunteer at my Obama HQ. You cannot watch this video and not feel that tug on your heart - thanks for reminding me how important it is that we work VERY hard during this last week to make sure we see this dream of a Unified country come true!
Dan, you thought you got me with this one, thought I would start crying like a baby, but I didn't!
I just wish to let you know once again, I believe you are one of the most talented persons I have had the honor of getting to know during this election cycle.
Thank you so much BJ. I talked to Don Lewis and his wife on the phone today. They thought the video came out very well which made me extremely happy and relieved. It is such a beautiful arrangement I didn't want to mess it up. I have met so many wonderful people during this campaign and I must say, you are one of them. Peace & Love to you and your family.
Dan, Just wanted you to know how emotionally effective the music and the images are together. It is the divine that has brought both my music and your images together to be used in this manner. Blessings to you and the Obama family and supporters. Let's create together again!
Many thanks to Julie, my partner and wife, for bringing us together!
Don, many thanks to you and your wife. I would love to collaborate again. I still can't believe how everything about this one just fell right into place.
DRD, I just went to Don Lewis' website and thanked him for the incredibly beautiful rendition of this old spiritual. And your video montage is just wonderful. Love the rapt looks on the people's faces. Thanks!
I took my son too see our future President in April 2007. He got to just touch his sleeve as we waited and pushed through the huge throngs. I knew it would be something he could tell his grandchildren someday. I also made a Youtube video of it.
Hey, You are really going to town with these great videos. Almost one everyday. Fierce urgency of now? I look forward to watching everyone. I love the music, videos and pictures you choose. Excellent job! Thanks so much for all you do. We are almost there!
What a wonderful song, Yes, everything gonna be all right! Love the pictures, people with such HOPE. Thanks Dan and Mr. Lewis for sharing this with all of us. YES WE CAN
I"m back and still holding on. I hope our fellow voters from Obama's last election are with me on this...Susie
