After all, what these celebrities have done for Obama is something that no other politician has yet been able to do, this music video places emotion at the core of Obama's speech. These stars have chosen to place this music video in the hands of inspiration on the internet rather than in the hands of music producers and therefore profit- something they should definitely gain self-congradulation for! If they were doing it for their own sakes, don't you think they'd want to get a bit of money out of it? This video is revolutionary for it's time- it's targeting and hitting hard the younger voting audience who would not usually care or vote for any president- it's been placed in a place where younger voters find it most accessible- it allows the rest of the world, not just american's to access it- it presents the speech in an entertaining manner that most of the internet generation would not watch unless made this way. I really hope it does upset the traditional way of voting and get those younger voters to the poles!</p> I strongly disagree with what Wagner James has said!

This is the most laughably off-base piece I’ve ever seen on NewTeeVee. I mean, it’s flat out wrong and embarrassing to try passing the writer’s opinion off as analysis.

The “Yes we can” video is an incredibly successful piece of online video. It spread like wildfire, beyond online video geeks. A certified crossover hit that resonates with people.

People cry watching this video. And you don’t think that’s good for the Obama campaign? Wow, I’m still flabbergasted. Utterly ridiculous!

ps – I get it about the celebs/We Are the World thing. but this is so well-produced it doesn’t matter at all.
