See, all these other candidates are just imitating Obama by saying
they are for change. Just like the way they all got onto Facebook
after he did it. I bet John Edwards doesn’t even know how to
SuperWall someone. And I happen to know for a fact that Mitt Romney
doesn’t even bother to tag anyone in his photos. These small things
all add up to one big thing: Barack Obama can bring change to the
status quo.
Did you see how everyone was talking about him after the Iowa
caucuses when he won and gave that speech? The crowd was chanting
O-bam-a, and he had to stop talking because they were so loud. And
you could tell that he was totally humbled and didn’t want that kind
of attention just by looking at the reluctant smile on his face and
listening to the way he so appreciatively thanked his supporters.
See, he knows it’s not about him but about this great nation. He’s
so awesome and he can really do amazing stuff as president.
Our foreign relations will really improve. He’ll just sit down with
all those other leaders and be like, “Hey, everyone, we should all
just start getting along and respecting one another.” See, that’s
what Bush and other Republicans won’t do because they all hate
people that aren’t white and only care about oil and killing illegal
immigrants. And they just want to win the war on terror, but what’s
the real war on terror? Could the real terror be right here in
America disguised as a ticking Congress bomb!? But Obama would make
all our foreign relations better by just being nice for a change,
and isn’t that all people are really looking for in this life?
When Barack is elected president, then the rest of the world will
start to understand how we’re really great people over here in
America because they will see how cool he is with them. I bet the
people in the Middle East would be surprised to know that tons of us
go volunteer at homeless shelters on Thanksgiving morning. And I bet
China and North Korea have no idea how we really love Asians. A
bunch of my guy friends really feel that way, and they even say they
are totally into some specific type of Asian movie genre.
So if you’re interested in having a better country, where we’ll have
health insurance really easy and get along with the other countries
and not hate people because they don’t have a social security card,
then join the movement, the Chancellor of Change, Barack Obama.
O-BAM-A, O-BAM-A, O-BAM-A, O-BAM-A…
