Idea For An Obama Vid: "I am Barack Hussein Obama!"
I don't have the skills, but it would be neat if somebody who does could take the scene from the movie Spartacus where the defeated gladiators stand up one by one and announce that they are Spartacus, and make it an homage of support for Barack Hussein Obama.

1. Or update it to
that episode of Happy Days where the mean, old sheriff is trying to run Fonzie out of town and Richie gets all his friends to dress up like Fonzie and says "you may get rid of Fonzy, but there'll be another, and another...etc."

I only suggest it because people could be dressed up like Obama and it would reinforce the idea that the time for change and, dare I say it, awakening has come. And if by some twist of fate of chicanery it doesn't happen this time, we're gonna keep coming and keep coming until we run that mean old sheriff out of town.

Plus, as much as I love Spartacus, I can never quite get by Tony Curtis's "Ah-ee am Spahtacus!" :)

2. Not a good idea. Not at all.
It's not a good middle name. Avoid it if at all possible.

3. Not a good idea. You need to treat LIVs with kid gloves.
They're eating up the McCain/Palin lies because they want to believe them. It's a bad idea to do any 'chest-thumping' that involves the name "Hussein". Unfortunate, but too many people are jumpy about it.
