It is now in our hands to make this happen. Our candidate has done all he can do. It is up to us to move it to election day. An awesome responsibility I know. But we can do it. Yes we can!
"We are Here"
By Lucifury a.k.a. Theo E. Wilson.
We are here, stitching the wings back onto an eagle amputated by 8 years of the illegal poaching of freedom.
We are here, mending the gashes on Lady Liberty's throat, gushing from the paper cuts from a thousand stolen and uncounted ballots.
We can feel her pulse again!
It trembles like the sidewalk, throbbing under the footsteps of a million marching canvassers. So when they asked us could we pull a miracle off of Liberty's flat-lined heartbeat, we said...
"Yes we can, yes we can!"
It is time! I see your local phone bank filling up with a wealth of volunteers whose golden hearts erase the debt of apathy from the masses. We are taking the white paint worn off the numbers of our phones, and wiping it back onto the flag where it belongs. There is room for you here! There are voter register's fingers who might suffer from frostbite if you do not join their hands.
This is how community is made. It is the look in the eye of s stranger who is on the same page as you that is as silent and powerful as a mail in ballot, because every single one counts.
Seal the envelope with a tear that you shed for a fallen soldier, and mail it first class to your hope for tomorrow, because it will get there. It has been waiting for you all this time to stand up for the angel whispering on your shoulder and do the right thing on his behalf for a change.
The time to stay silent is over. The time to speak out is yesterday, and the day before that, and the 4 years prior when you said nothing while the voice of reason was silenced; not knowing that all the while, that something so powerful was supposed to come out of your mouth. So, when they asked us, could we write a song whose melody could change the tone of this nation, we said...
"Yes we can, yes we can!"
Ask us how we know, It's 'cause we've done it already!! This is what impossible looks like when you give it a clip-board, and send it out to knock on doors in your 'hood! The people in this country are hungry for change, don't act like you can't make a sandwich. No one ever fueled a movement on the groans of an empty stomach, there is room for you here, take your place!!
And we will Barack the vote, Barack the mike and this nation until the efforts of McCain and Sarah Pale-in comparison! We deal with enough beef in this country to know bull when we smell it, and just because it came from a moose doesn't mean it ain't big-game. You can throw lipstick on an elephant, it doesn't make it change. You can throw lipstick on an elephant, it doesn't make it "change!"
Take it to the streets. History is a chorus calling for the vibrato in your voice, and together, we can make steel levitate and collect at ground-zero until New York looks like it did on the 10th of September! The people have spoken. Our leader is the one whose ears are large because he can hear the voice of this nation.

11 plus 4 plus 2-0-0-8 adds up to 25, add the 2 and the 5, that's "7"...I'll see you at inauguration!!
