Description:
Congratulations, Mr. President.-Lyrics-It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.Yes we can.It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom.Yes we can.It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.Yes we can.It was the call of workers who organized; women who reached for the ballots; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land.Yes we can to justice and equality.Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.Yes we can heal this nation.Yes we can repair this world.Yes we can.We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics...they will only grow louder and more dissonant ........... We've been asked to pause for a reality check. We've been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.Now the hopes of the little girl who goes to a crumbling school in Dillon are the same as the dreams of the boy who learns on the streets of LA; we will remember that there is something happening in America; that we are not as divided as our politics suggests; that we are one people; we are one nation; and together, we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words that will ring from coast to coast; from sea to shining sea --Yes. We. Can.Guest appearances -will.i.am - 0:01 Scarlett Johansson - 0:05 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar - 0:21 Common - 0:23 John Legend - 0:32 Bryan Greenberg (guitar) - 0:37 Kate Walsh - 0:44 Tatyana Ali - 0:44 Harold Perrineau, Jr. - 0:49 Aisha Tyler - 1:01 Samuel Page - 1:03 Enrique Murciano - 1:07 "Si, podemos" - 1:17 Maya Rubin - 1:08 "כן אנו יכולים (Qen Annu Yecholim)" (Hebrew) Esthero - 1:10 Eric Balfour - 1:23 Nicole Scherzinger - 1:30 Taryn Manning - 1:40 Amber Valletta - 1:52 Auden McCaw (in Valetta's arms) - 1:52 Kelly Hu - 1:52 Adam Rodríguez - 1:56 "Sí se puede" Eric Christian Olsen - 2:02 Sarah Wright - 2:02 Shoshannah Stern (American Sign Language) - 2:05 Ed Kowalczyk (guitar) - 2:19 Fonzworth Bentley (violin) - 2:38 Amaury Nolasco - 3:24 Hill Harper - 3:27 Nick Cannon - 3:36 Herbie Hancock (piano) - 3:41 Johnathon Schaech - 3:45 Austin Nichols - 3:50 Tracee Ellis Ross - 4:00 Fred Goldring (guitar) - 4:03 Anson Mount Alfonso Ribeiro Cliff Collins Vera Farmiga

Dec 14, 2008 - I do not need a group of celebrities to advice me on social and political issues. I am an informed American, and a gathering of celebrities promoting "change" will never influence my decision.

Dec 14, 2008 - 1) Obama did not have a landslide;2) Obama's economic policies will increase the US national debt;3) Obama's economic policy will increase taxes, leading to capital flight;4) Obama's economic policies will overregulate, leading to London steamrolling New York in terms of finance;5)Obama's welfarism will destroy the enterprise culture of many Americans;6) Obama's economic policies will lead to US economic collapse, and thus loss of US geopolitical leadership

Dec 14, 2008 - Bingo, pal.His top aid has been involved in the latest Illinois governor scandal b4 he takes over in January. You thought they'd at least last that lie for a while. They are unable to. Their dirty nature strikes whenever there's a chance.
BigChiefMike Says:
Dec 14, 2008 - Obama has not even proven that he is a US citizen or was born in the US. his father isn't a US citizen, so he isn't even an American citizen.
dlmaniac Says:
Dec 14, 2008 - Obama's economic plans boil down to two tactics: high tax and dollar printing spree. Both will rob those decent and diligent Americans that work hard & spend smart to make ends meet, and award those who don't.
812man6 Says:
Dec 14, 2008 - Hey chief mike if your father is not an American but your born in the U.S. your an American citizen. And Mike, what makes u think he would have gotten this far without someone knowing he wasn't a citizen?

zulujunior Says:
Dec 14, 2008 - its funny how the large majority of people only voted for him because he was black and dont even understand his policies. when you look past the skin colour you'll realise he'll be another unreliable u.s president
812man6 Says:
Dec 14, 2008 - So you would vote 4 a guy who picked his vp just because she was a girl (he made it very obvious). And your callin out people votin 4 obama 4 his skin color...

Nintendowiilover Says:
Dec 14, 2008 - People shouldn't hate President Bush. It is wrong to hate your president. You should always stand by them no matter what happens. I honestly think George had bad luck with Katrina, 9-11 and other bad things. Just don't hate the president. Congratulations, Obama.
