Super Tuesday!
5 02 2008Ahead of the “Super Tuesday” Democratic Party primaries in the US this evening, watch this music video “Yes We Can” which is inspired by Senator Barack Obama’s presidential bid. It has been produced by Black Eyed Peas frontman, will.i.am, and film maker Jesse Dylan (son of John).
Commenting on ABC News on the video, will.i.am said of Obama’s speech (after the New Hampshire primary) which inspired the video:
“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 to be sitting here on ABC News and making a song from Obama’s speech”.
The video features Scarlett Johansson, John Legend, Herbie Hancock, Kate Walsh, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Adam Rodriquez, Kelly Hu, Adam Rodriquez, Amber Valetta and Nick Cannon.
Meanwhile, Obama was working New Jersey voters yesterday with Hollywood actor, Robert de Niro. De Niro said Obama was the “one person has given me hope, has made me believe that we can make a change.”
