The Hillary response to Will.i.am's Obama tribute video doesn't even compare

I gotta say, in terms of being inspirational, this doesn't even come close to the mark.

1) The production values are terrible.

2) It focuses on Clinton instead of the message. Obama's words were what inspired Will.i.am to write his song. Clinton's words are merely inserted (jarringly and badly, BTW) into a treacly pop song. That is a big difference.

3) She is definitely not the orator that Obama is.

4) That song is terrible. Just awful. "They say she's a beautiful girl, she's a beautiful girl?"

5) Isn't KT Tunstall Scottish?

I think it's a sad attempt at "forced inspiration." I think it's cringe-inducing. But you can decide for yourself.

That is so embarassing. Seriously. I am dying a little inside for her.

Is that from her campaign or from a fan? I hope it's not from the campaign.

That was painful to watch. Will.i.am's video left me with goosebumps and the feeling of hope. This video just left me uncomfortable from embarrassment.

i'm glad i'd already decided against voting for her. it would be sad indeed to have to use this example of why she is so uninspiring to show why i am so uninspired by her campaign. if that makes sense. i like k.t. and i like the song, so i had to stop the video--i don't want this to be what i see every time i hear the song.

Glennia and I are on the same wavelength - it's a pretty good video if submitted by a fan. As a campaigning tool, not so much! It hurt my ears.
