I Got a Crush... On Obama

Liz Miller
Posted June 14, 2007

In future years, we might look back upon Senator Obama's bid for the 2008 presidency as somewhat premature: "Why," we might ask, "didn't he wait until he'd completed at least one term of national office? WHY?" And this is why this rather charming music video may be a useful document for future generations.

Here, Obama Girl sings eloquently about why Obama found himself pressured into running, tracking the man's story from his landmark speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention to his current campaign. The starry-eyed idealism of this short captures all-too-eloquently the hope placed upon Obama's tall slim shoulders -- the question is, what will we think about it, in two years' time?
