I guess I don't have to mention who Barack Obama is. Unless you've been living under a rock the name is all self defining. What did shock me was the overall popularity this man has in countries besides America. NEVER have I known of any other US President / future President to have such a strong effect on people. Not even the Kennedys. So it was a bit of a shock for me to see the barrage of YouTube videos dedicated to Obama that were being put out by the Jamaican market. It doesn't surprise me that they are following our politics. Of course they've already had a Black leader and woman leader so they're a bit beyond that hype, however it feels good to know that they see our(the Black American)plight.
On a little "funny" side note my mother constantly tells me how she thinks Barack Obama reminds her of Evan. GREAT!!! So now when I look at him I'm reminded of Evan too. Which I feel is horribly inappropriate to be attracted to your future president, haha. Especially cause I have so much respect for the man, and think he's very articulate and educated and just on point when it comes to the views that this country needs expressed. Its just kinda gross for me, and quite uncomfortable to find him attractive cause he looks like my husband.....so weird.
Anyway, I really liked this montage. My favorite pic is the one of him hugging his daughters. He has the affection towards his wife and children that I believe everyone one dreams of.
