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.Celebrities featured include: Jesse Dylan, Will.i.am, Common, Scarlett Johansson, Tatyana Ali, John Legend, Herbie Hancock, Kate Walsh, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Adam Rodriquez, Kelly Hu, Amber Valetta, Eric Balfour, Aisha Tyler, Nicole Scherzinger and Nick CannonAlso check out this other great song and video inspired by Barack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v LyJ72iZ3tW4.

VOTE BARACK '08. YES WE CAN!Check out: www.youbama.comAccording to will.i.am, founding member and frontman of Black Eyed Peas, the "Yes We Can Song" was inspired by Senator Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign and especially the speech Obama gave following the New Hampshire primary. He states, "It made me reflect on the freedoms I have, going to school where I went to school, and the people that came before Obama like Martin Luther King, presidents like Abraham Lincoln that paved the way for me. . . ." Dylan says, "The speech was inspiring about making change in America and I believe what it says and I hope everybody votes." The music video includes excerpts from Obama's speech and appearances from several celebrities: Scarlett Johansson, John Legend, Herbie Hancock, Kate Walsh, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Adam Rodriquez, Kelly Hu, Adam Rodriquez, Amber Valetta, and Nick Cannon. "I'm blown away by how many people wanted to come and be a part of it in a short amount of time. It was all out of love and hope for change and really representing America and looking at the world," will.i.am said.
I was sitting in my recording studio watching the debates...Torn between the candidatesI was never really big on politics...and actually I'm still not big on politics...but 4 years ago, me and the black eyed peas supported Kerry...And we supported Kerry with all our might...We performed and performed and performed for the DNC...doing all we could do to get the youth involved...The outcome of the last 2 elections has saddened me...on how unfair, backwards, upside down, unbalanced, untruthful, corrupt, and just simply, how wrong the world and "politics" are...So this year i wanted to get involved and do all i could early...And i found myself torn...because this time it's not that simple...our choices aren't as clear as the last elections ...last time it was so obvious...Bush and war vs. no bush and no war...But this time it's not that simple...and there are a lot of people that are torn just like i am...So for awhile I put it off and i was going to wait until it was decided for me...And then came New Hampshire...And i was captivated...Inspired...
people say Obama's words are just words...but...when was the last time "words" weren't important...???...when was the last time a great leader didn't use words to lead...??...when was the last time a person didn't use words to describe how they felt...?...when was the last time "words" weren't empowering...?...and we can all recall the last time "words" were used to divide us and install fear...Bush used words to fear us into voting for him the second time around...terror this...terror that...nuclear here...weapons of mass destruction there...and those words effected a lot of people's choices..."enough is enough"...let's rebuild...let's change ourselves...let's allow positivity to guide us...let's take action....let's activate our passion...we are Americans....and this is the first time in forever that someone running for president represents "US"...some say this is all excitement...I call it "proud to be an American"...some say this whole Obama movement is "cult like"...well...if it comes across cult like...then...the cult is called America...the Obama movement is connecting America.and it has made "US" realize our importance...the youth is excited and activated...adults are passionate and motivated...the elderly are proud to know the country they built is in safe hands...we are one...for too long politics has been corrupt...separate from the American people...with agendas that go against what the American people "need"...education...health... afety...jobsetc...politicians have spoken a different language...making it so the youth and poor people feel as if voting was only for the wealthy and old people...making "US" feel as if "we" had no voice...making "US" feel powerless...making it feel like if "we" did vote it wouldn't change anything...but wait...that did happen...some of us voted, and it didn't change anything...we were in the dark...we had no voice...we were powerless...because America was not a united America...and "they" spoke a different language... and they had an agenda different from our well being... correct me if I'm wrong... or speak up if I'm missing something... we want education, health, safety, and good jobs...right???... oh yeah...and "a healthy planet to live on"...but here we are...in a war... poor education... poor health programs... the dollar is down... the planet, polluted...the rich, richer... and the poor, struggling...with sky high gas prices to top it all off...and now even the rich aren't really rich internationally because our dollar is has fallen so far down...in our slumber... a very small few got really rich...because when you're sleeping..."it's hard to change agendas"...we know what happened in 2000 and 2004...but in 2008...it's different...we are awake...and there is a movement...and "it's hard to change a movement"...last time "we" didn't have a movement...America wasn't united...and now "United and "Standing"...for something...we know the power of "US"...and we have a person who represents the "U.S."... "US"..."we are the ones we've been waiting for"...I'm proud to be an American...will.i.am
