Today is the 23rd of November and for the first time I saw the YES WE CAN Black Eyed Peas video. I must confess that it was long ago that I cry with happiness and hope on the future. I am very sorry if the English is not perfect but the joy that I’m living with this view is real and has no language from any country. Is international, is the language of the world. YES WE CAN change the world, YES WE CAN believe that there is (at least) one man that is real and that give us hope on the future. YES WE CAN!

Hello dear Will i am, you know what my dear, you have written LOVE Songs from your HEARTizen heart, and I applaud you for that. You have written love song about YES WE CAN, and about AMERICA that brings tears to my eyes and joy to my heart every time I hear them, and I am grateful for the gift that God has given to you and you have been generous to bring it to us!  Your songs connect hearts and that is the most important and as my motto says:Only a HEARTizen can heal the world! And you are ONE! Indeed we are all blessed to have  Mr. President Barack Hossein Obama as our President for now and the years to come! A HEARTizen President, a Citizen of the HEART with GLOBAL Views, a person of diversity within himself and outside of himself, a man of integrity and a sense of nobleness, and certainly a man who has chosen an educated, intelligent, and beautiful partner in life, Michelle, and their two beautiful children. Let us hope for many years of friendship, unity, prosperity, and cooperation in the world for the years to come!

 

Love,

 

Bahereh

Barack Obama is a great man and I think that he can really change the world.  I'm Italian and the situation here is tragic. I hope that in the future there will be a man in Italy like him.

P.s. I'm sorry but my english is not so good...

 

adamroot said on December 2, 2008:

In these tough economic climate those in wall street, main street, and every other street are looking for strength in our leadership.  Many say that dark times are here but the worst are yet to come.  Many say there is no hope. But as this speech reminded me:

"In the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope"

Cheers,

Adam Root

CanadianStorm said on November 11, 2008:

Barack Obama has inspired millions around this world including myself up here in Canada. This song you and others have put together, stemming from one of many, President-Elect Barack Obama wonderful speeches is truly beautiful, inspirational, and moving. With Obama being the President of the United States of America the world can and will begin to change for the good. Many believe that this is an historical event but I believe it is much, much more that that. This is a world event that will bring many people and nations together. Barack Obama is a new kind a politician, one that has inspired millions and will inspire billions more around the world with intelligences, compassion, and understanding.

 

Many are saying that he will not be able to deliver on his promises, but I believe he will, because he has a nation that stands behind him and a world that is routing for him. Yes We Can!

omg...i cried. So sweet.

 

Sxxystylz said on November 5, 2008:

I am a proud supporter of Barack Obama! I am an american that live in Canada, but be sure that I did have my vote for Obama and sent it in way ahead of time to make sure I am a part of history and a part of voting for a president that is a president for the whole of the United States not a president of just 20% of the president, which let me add FINALLY!!!  I hope the States is ready for Barack Obama and that nothing bad comes out of such a good thing.  Thank you for making this for the people of the world, because it is time to have change and hope in the United Sates!!!
