7. Thank you.
Excellent subject, awesome tune.
I'm glad you enjoyed. It is only on the mediashare for two days, so if you like it, you should download.

13. my ideas
first, to answer your question the way you intended it, i suppose you would have to record the video using a product like streamRipper and then maybe it could be rehosted on another site ... i'm not sure what technical constraints are blocking Firefox from running the video ...

i still have IE on my machine although i now use Firefox exclusively ...

my comments on the video are:
1. it was mostly cheerleading and did not provide much information to those not familiar with Kerry
2. Kerry should call for withdrawal from Iraq ... what was the point of showing the traumatized Iraqi child or the marines on fire in front of a tank ... those who don't stand up and call for withdrawal are prolonging the violence of everyone involved ... even if you don't agree with this position, is there something Kerry has done that is worthy of credit regarding Iraq? i appreciate he would be handling the situation differently, but in my book those that support continued occupation are part of the problem; not part of the solution ...

those who cannot see that there will be no positive outcome while US troops remain in Iraq will never receive my campaign work, my financial support or my vote ever again ...

11. I had the same problem, but I shut it off, and signed on to Internet expl
Wonder if there is a way to download it, and move it to a different browser?

Any computer experts out there?

It is worth seeing!

12. Thanks so much, globalvillage. Now I'm sad;
your video reminded me once again of how much we have lost as a country, and how things could have been so different. :-(

15. Wow, amazing
I'm in awe. It was so good. I'm actually tearing up. It was powerful. If this is your first time, and you liked the process, you've found your calling.

I know not everyone here likes Kerry, but it really should be seen by all, it is a piece of art.

Maybe BenBurch or CrooksandLiars could post it on their site. I would love to have Kerry see it. It would certainly warm his heart.

You REALLY need to do something for Current TV.

16. You're very kind, zalinda.
I'm afraid I found my calling about a quarter century ago, and it's not nearly as exciting as creating music videos. I did like the process, though. I guess art, if you want to call it that, is a very personal thing.
I will take the praise, along with the inevitable criticism, and thank you again for appreciating my work.
You've made it worth the effort.
:hug:

17. I was wishing as I watched this that Kerry would see it and
remember who he was. This is a very good first vis. I think that your sence of timing was good and worked well with the music. The fade outs were also very effective. I think that if I was still not so mad at Kerry for giving up the election so fast that I could have appreciated more what you were trying to do. I still appreciate who he was, but Kerry's halo is tarnished for me.

18. Well drat
I'd LOVE to be able to watch it, but I'm still on dial-up (not by choice) and it's simply going to take far too long to download. 10 minutes into it, and I was only about 1/5 of the way in, and that wasn't while I was trying to load other pages either.

Damn, damn, damn 56k. :banghead:

The audio is not very good, but it's something.

26. Thank you SO MUCH!
It was simply WONDERFUL, even if the quality was not "perfect".

I know Kerry is a touchy subject with many people, but I'll tell ya - I'd vote for him again in a heartbeat. Even a year after I hooked onto the image of him taking the Oath of Office, I just can't let it go.

If I don't see that image become a reality in my lifetime, maybe it will be in my next one.

Thanks again for doing this globalvillage and for taking the time to email me to give me the heads-up.

:yourock:

21. Can you set it in a format that works with MAC?
It's set for WMP 9 and there's not a Mac version of that yet.

22. Hmmm...Any suggestions?
There is another Mac user on the Kerry forum who wants to see it, too. I'm just not familiar. I can try, though.

25. Important historical snip its that should motivate people to find
out more about the below the radar actions of our government and those like John Kerry who try to expose the corruption and get at the truth. Thank you!

27. Wow
That was great. You did an awesome job, and for the naysayers just click their ignore button, they just pop in because Kerry's name is in the post, just the same ole rhetoric over and over. :boring:

You deserve a standing Ovation, for your work , your video has a lot to do with what the Republicans have tried to get away with for decades, at least Kerry had the backbone to stand up to them. To bad Americans don't know their history.

:applause: :applause: :applause:

28. Very nice!
I really liked it. It showed Kerry's career highlights. Nicely done and I thought the music was appropriate as well. How do I save it?
