    YouTube - Yes We Can - Barack Obama Music Video


    This doesn't seem to be quite as outrageous as the Hillary Clinton video. Still, why are there music videos..?

    This poll is really not surprising. What's surprising about the REAL Democratic Primaries is the delegates. If the government has not already limiting our voting power with the electoral college, let's put some f***ing delegates in there too!

    But yeah, it's actually kind of cool to see how people even on here are supporting Obama rather than Clinton. :] Woo!

    Sapphire,

    The individual parties set up the system and rules for their primary voting, and the delegate system. The government doesn't have anything to do with it.

    The electoral college does not limit your voting power. The electoral college was put in place, for example, to ensure that all states, large or small, would not be ignored.

    And I do not believe that the primaries are at all playing out as Senator Clinton envisioned. Even the superdelegates that she felt she 'had' are not falling into line as she had expected. While the primary contest is not over for her, it is far more competative than anticipated.
