That's a great clip, quite clever. I hope Obama wins as well, however one thing that is developing around this Obama campaign is this expectation that a single person is just going to change (ie 'fix') everything that ails the US.
It's kinda like there is a housing crisis and people think the solution is to fix the banks and cut out the big bonuses bankers get. And although banks need to be regulated better in the US, the other input they needed to have the crisis they do is to have millions of financially dumb people to sign those escalating mortgages. Somehow people thought a household income of 75k could buy a 500k mortgage.
A big part of the problem in the US is that the hundreds of millions that make up the country are more and more destructive to their own economy via crippling debts then walking away from their obligations, they are less educated than ever before, and have less respect for other people ... moreso than any other developed country I've ever seen.
The real solution to their problems isn't a new President (although it can't hurt) it's that materially all of their citizens need to take a little responsibility for themselves, and do some changing of their own.
