\"\"Nothing would please me more than having this video get a whole lot of \u201cdislikes\u201d over on YouTube.\u00a0 See, YouTube is chock full of active right-wing trolls and somehow, I think this video might bug them, and not for it\u2019s mediocre singing and guitar playing.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Okay, so we\u2019re still 18 months from the Presidential election, but as people are already starting to talk about it. With Ron Paul launching his campaign, I posted Dr Sparkles pro-Ron Paul song \u201cWithout Freedom<\/a>\u201d on someone\u2019s blog the other day, and I got to thinking, \u201cWhy haven\u2019t I written a pro-Obama song yet?\u201d\u00a0 So I sat down and started doing just that.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Many thanks to all of you who helped me out with the background images<\/a>; that saved me a lot of time. Gave you and FriendBurst a little shout in the closing credits. The electric guitar solo you hear in the middle is none other than our very own Billy Skribbler<\/strong>!\u00a0 Yup.\u00a0 This video marks the first time I have ever collaborated with another musician on a song too!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve even posted the MP3 audio-only version here <\/a>on FriendBurst music so you can download it and put it on your MP3 player!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

One note on playing the video.\u00a0 I \u201crendered\u201d it at a relatively high resolution, so the streaming may start and stop if your connection isn\u2019t fast.\u00a0 The thing to do is click play, then click pause, wait for it load for a bit, then come back and push play again. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We elected him
\nin times that weren’t great.
\nThings are still tough now
\nbut they’re better than they were in ’08
\nyes they’re better than they were in ’08<\/p>\n

He promised hope and change
\nThings are still on track
\nWe may still be in Afghanistan
\nbut at least we’re out of Iraq.
\nWell, we’re mostly out of Iraq.<\/p>\n

Is it because he’s black?
\nor because he’s a Democrat?
\nHE could be for rescuing kittens
\nand the Republicans would oppose that.
\nThe Tea Partiers would oppose that. <\/p>\n

2012 is coming.
\nTime for an election.
\nI’m gonna do what I can
\nbecause I’m voting for Obama again.
\nYes I’m voting got Obama again<\/p>\n

(guitar solo)<\/p>\n

IN his second term
\nWe’ll take away all your guns
\nWe’ll get those death panels rolling
\nand set up those internment camps.
\nYes, we’ll set up those internment camps….what?
\nI wasn’t suppose to talk about
\nthat part of the plan? Oh. I can edit it out….
\nbecause I’m voting for Obama again.
\nYes I’m voting got Obama again. <\/p>\n

Why don’t you join us now
\nthe future we will win
\nHe’s leading our recovery
\nand you know he got bin Laden.
\nYes you know he got bin Laden.<\/p>\n

I am not one
\nto be scared and glum
\nI think our future’s bright
\nand our best is still to come
\nYes America is number one!<\/p>\n

So I call on you my friend
\nto all the women and men
\nIt’s time in 2012
\nto be voting for Obama again
\nYes, we’re voting for Obama again. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,8,1428],"tags":[1031,3413,3406,81,108,252,234,156],"class_list":["post-36644","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-friendburst","category-music","category-politics-2","tag-1031","tag-election","tag-guitar","tag-joko","tag-music-2","tag-obama","tag-politics","tag-skribbler"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36644","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36644"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36644\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36644"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36644"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=36644"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
