In his attempt to salvage any possibility of keeping democrats in power come November, Obama is scrambling around the country in support of the democratic candidates (since that worked so well with Martha Coakley). In this video, he is appealing to the “first-time” voters of 2008 who helped elect him. He specifically asks that “Young people, African-Americans, Latinos, and women…stand together once again” at the polls in order to keep his administration in power at “all levels of government”. It is interesting to hear straight from the horse’s mouth that White and Asian men, plus old people need not participate in the new ObamaNation election process. Apparently in his new America, the only thing these people are good for is providing a group that the media can constantly accuse of racism.

What Mr. President does not realize is that he has already “connected” with thousands who have not usually been involved in politics- but not in the way that will get and keep his friends in office. Regular Americans have awakened since he took office and have been forced to engage in the political process because they have felt pushed against a wall by this administration. The Tea Parties are an evidence of this fact. They have given a voice to the everyday American who no longer wants Obama’s brand of “Hope and Change”.

He goes on to celebrate all of the things his administration has ” accomplished” (i.e. health care reform, and the recovery act). Then 50 seconds in he makes the most important statement of the video:

“Despite everything we’ve done, our work isn’t finished.”

Yes, we know that you will continue destroying this country. As if that is not enough reason to get you involved in the “political process”, he goes on to make the case for us why YOU AND I need to run to the polls this November: because despite the fact that this administration continues to ignore us (except when they ridicule us) OUR VOICE MATTERS! Their work isn’t finished, so neither is ours. Thank you, Obama, for convincing me more so than ever of my responsibility to vote.
