-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.

Whoops, I mean "what" obviously.

Tell has he lied about? Just curious.

It's not about Obama constantly playing the race card like an ass. It's about him lying and having no experience. Plus he has the most liberal voting record in the Senate. Obama is a disaster! He will not be president. Deal with it.

Bush can't be president, dumbass, he served two terms. Obama offers no "change." It's just a gimmick for idiots like you. Barck is just a lying, dishonest, Chicago politician with no experience.

Actually, it's just Obama who can't give a speech without a teleprompter.
RadarGuidedVermin (August 30, 2008 at 3:01 am)
That means McCain was tough enough to serve, where Obama is a coward. Do I want a neophyte president that will strip our civil rights away and give all my money to Africa and Middle Eastern terrorists? No thanks, Obama. You're not fit to be president.
RadarGuidedVermin (August 30, 2008 at 2:58 am)
Sorry buddy, Obama lost when he started lying. McCain will be your next president. Deal with it.
RadarGuidedVermin (August 30, 2008 at 2:56 am)
Obama doesn't even have the experience to tie his own shoes. Combine that with the fact that Barack is a liar and it becomes clear McCain will be president.
RadarGuidedVermin (August 30, 2008 at 2:53 am)
Sorry, it will take more than an inexperienced liar to beat McCain.
RadarGuidedVermin (August 30, 2008 at 2:52 am)
What history? Putting an unexperienced liar in the White House is nothing noteworthy.
