Obama in Red and Blue

[willowman]

Here's a little video I made with my video editor. It's an image of Obama that I have always really liked set to the song, "Rhapsody in Blue", by George Gershwin (conducted by Leonard Bernstein). I used to listen to "Rhapsody in Blue" on a record player, and there is something quintessentially American about the song so I thought it would go well with an image of our next president. I couldn't upload the video to YouTube because it is more than 10 minutes long (Damn you and your time limits, YouTube!). I was able to upload it to Google Video, though (and Google owns YouTube so that makes no sense).



I am pretty sure this Barack Obama image comes from Frank Shepard Fairey, whose website is Obey Giant. I think this image will be in history textbooks one day.

Here is a larger version of the image ...




I think it is weird how the button on the right side looks like it has a little face in it.
