Actually...I enjoyed the video.....regardless of the campaign, it is interesting to see the behind the scenes stuff. Where was this intersection located (I know the area pretty well)?

[ailsagoh]

Thank you. Yeah, there isn't any particular point to the video. I was just at that place at the right time and captured that clip.

Counting the number vehicles seems more interesting than the actual sound captured in the van (Lehigh's shuttle bus), which was a lot of silence, some loud sniffling and comments like, "There's enough lights on that car, it's like a Christmas tree."

It's at the intersection of Seidersville Rd and Service Dr (down the hill from Lehigh's Mountaintop campus).

Three things:

1) Did you just happen to be the first in a line of stopped traffic, or were you waiting there purposely to catch this vid? (Love the music, btw; perfect feel).

2) Of course he has to have that many people with SS, press, etc. I'm sure Obama has a similar entourage. I agree that are nutjobs out there, and that makes this sort of security necessary.

3) Can anyone type up what the radio transmission at the end is saying?

Go Obama!

1) I was on my way home and happened to be first in line when vehicle#1 swerved around and block the traffic. The music is called "Breakbeat Long" (from iMovie).

3) The radio transmission is not real :) I added that sound effect called "Walkie Talkie Gabble" (also from iMovie).

Thanks so much for explaining it all! My kids play around on imovie, but I'm too busy, so I just let them make our family vids (also on imovie).

Anyway, this was a great video. Your perspective is perfect, including the composition of the shot, nice angles of the corner and everything. So cool!

Did you just happen to have your video camera or do you have a really good phone video function?

[ailsagoh]

I had my small flip video with me.

"You're friend Clinton..."

Aside from your lack of knowing the difference between "your" and "you are"...

During the 1990s(Clinton's era), while McCain served as chairman of the International Republican Institute (IRI), the group distributed several grants to the Palestinian research center co-founded by Khalidi.

A 1998 tax filing for the McCain-led group shows a $448,873 grant to Khalidi's Center for Palestine Research and Studies for work in the West Bank, the Post notes.

"Honestly did you just read what you wrote? A half a million dollars, even if that is true what is a half a million dollars to the Palestinian government?"

_

Yes. I read it. And you think a person is a government by your reading skills.

Honestly did you just read what you wrote? A half a million dollars, even if that is true what is a half a million dollars to the Palestinian government? You're friend Clinton tried being friends with the middle east and gave them our old weapons and gave them some training as well. So don't try to come at me all "educated."

"Hence why you're voting Obama, you're not "informed"..."

_

Yeah...didn't you get the "informational" speeches about "socialism", bill ayres, the Palestinian guy...?

Or did you get the "informational" facts that destroyed those speeches? Like the fact that John McCain gave the Palestinian over a half million dollars 10 years ago.

Very exciting, great video.

Hence why you're voting Obama, you're not "informed"...

Well he seems to have plenty of money for GMC Cargo vans, looks like he bought out a whole dealerships worth.

I think the white vans with the tinted windows are filled with paid supporters who travel with McCain from rally to rally in order to fill his arenas.
