Ch-ch-ch-change. But probably not for David Bowie. ;-)
Very creative the way they mixed the words with the music toward the end. Somebody did a a lot of work!
I remember what you said a couple weeks ago:
"Alice Meynell wrote, 'Our fathers valued change for the sake of its results; we value it in the act.' I think that illustrates the difference in thinking between our older and younger generations. Everyone presumes change - even change for the sake of change - always yields positive results. But change for change's sake is like tossing pick-up-sticks in the air and hoping they land in a better, more organized way. It seldom results in any improvement at all."
I REALLY liked what you said and copied it to my desktop. Candidates want us to believe they will make things better by "changing" things. "End the war", "lower taxes", "help the poor", "for good", "against bad". Campaign rhetoric. None of them would even throw the pickupsticks. I don't hear what specifically would be changed or how they would do it. They just want to win the pickupstick vote.
I hate to say it but we are getting what we deserve. We are sheeple and let political parties tell us what to think. Between them and the msm who always slant the news to push their favorites, we only get to vote for the worst possible choices.
I just wanted to say a quick thankyou for posting my Candidates/Bowie Changes video. I've been very surprised at how quickly it has spread and I'm really happy that so many people seem to enjoy it - it's definitely made all the editing worthwhile.
If you're interested, I've just posted my second satirical US election video, "Clinton and Cruise: On the campaign trail" here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3enFIPvnFg
Ever wonder what the candidates whisper to one another after a debate? They seem friendly, but I think it must be something like, "I kicked your ass tonight, Bro'" or "I'm gonna crush you like a soft melon..." or maybe "You sure made an ass of yourself tonight." But that's just me.

I'm reminded of the words of Will Rogers, who said "The person who has what it takes to be the President of the United States is missing something..."
Character? Honesty? Moral compass?
Well done! Amazing they all are fighting to be the "one" candidate who stands for "change". Clowns, all of them! Kudos to whoever made this.
That took some time all right but worth it!
Bravo! Cutting pieces to make the candidates sing along is pure genius!!

Funny!!!
Making good use of news footage.

Now THAT's what I'm talking about! Great work ( and a lot of it I can tell) - Keep it up! It gives the rest of us something to smile about!
