Hillary Clinton just completed a video to recognize the 40th Anniversary since the death of Martin Luther King and honor his work and what he stood for.
It's an excellent video.
In her remarks, she recounts a question Dr. King put forth.
"Well, I’m running for president because I still remember Dr. King’s challenge. He asked us what we would say when we appear before the throne of judgment and are asked, 'What did you do for others?' Dr. King said that no matter what our answer might be, God would say, 'Well, that is not enough.' There is always more to be done."
In honor of McCain's commitment to neverending war and "billions for Iraq infrastructure, none for America" platform, I made a tribute video:
Obama, as many describe him, is transcendant of race and politics. politcal analyst and obama followers proclaim that he is bridging the genarational gap. He is healing america's racial wounds and he is as deepak chopra opines, a "quantum leap" in american politics.
You can see how holy obama is to so many. the positive language that follows obama around is usually reserved for religious figures and religion in general, but obama seems to have won this celestial language over.
It is fitting, then, that on this holy day for christians around the world we remind ourselves of the great achievements of barack obama;

Last night, on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, John Edwards admitted to beating Obama in a game of basketball when Leno asked, "Did you kick his ass?"
The interview was generally lighthearted with Edwards responding with laughter when Leno asked about John's decision "to run as a middle aged white man."
Watch Edwards on Leno here:
this is pretty strong stuff...
i don't know how to paste the video here, but i provide the link here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVAmFSODl H0
it's been seen on youtube by almost 3,000 visitors and im sure it will be seen by a lot more...
it is quite something. this rev. wright ordeal is cancerous..it continues to mestastasize..
The video above is just the first of what will likely be dozens of attacks on Barak Obama, should he be the Democratic nominee. It plays on every fear white people have ever had about Blacks. It's dirty, deceitful, and expected. But it gives me hope.
I refuse to give in to fear, and I believe enough in my country to know that this type of tactic will not work, not if Democrats are willing to stand up and fight. This is our year, and what better way to turn the GOP into a regional, racist party, than to stand up to this type of attack and take the White House in November? This could be the sweetest victory in history, if we're willing to fight for it as a party.
Feel free to post links to videos you'd like everyone to see in the comments.
Here's Barack Obama's closing Texas ad airing throughout the state tonight.
This is Barack Obama's version of the presidential address ads John Edwards and Hillary Clinton have aired previously. Of all the ads in which Obama speaks directly to the camera, I think this is his most effective. It's a long ad but it's compelling, not at all boring. In it he not only effectively advances the argument for why uniting the country is so important to make change, but he also more than passes the "do you want this guy in your living room" test.
Hillary Clinton has a new ad up in Texas as well, this one going after Barack Obama for not holding hearings on Afghanistan, using his own words against him.
While it's a bit wordy at first, I think it scores points once you're able to see Obama himself say, essentially, that he was too busy to hold hearings, which leads to the strong closing line "Hillary Clinton will never be to busy to defend our national security..." The ad actually manages to make national security an issue without appealing to fear.
For those folks out there who didn't catch it initially, MSNBC is doing the same hour-long episode on ALL the candidates.
