You Can Vote However You Like

In honor of election week I thought it fitting to share this video. As a way to get students interested in learning about our country's election process and the candidates involved, teachers and students from the Ron Clark Academy http://www.ronclarkacademy.com/ in Atlanta came up with a Presidential rap entitled You Can Vote However You Like. The lyrics are set to the beat of Whatever You Like, by rapper T.I. The video was posted on You Tube before it gained national attention and as a result the students were featured on CNN and Good Morning America. No matter who you voted for this past Tuesday you have to appreciate the creativity this teacher used to get his students interested in the Presidential process. I hope you enjoy.

The Lyrics

Obama on the left
McCain on the right
We can talk politics all night
And you can vote however you like

You can vote however you like, yeah

Democratic left
Republican right
November 4th we decide
And you can vote however you like

You can vote however you like, yeah

McCain is the man

Fought for us in Vietnam

You know if anyone can

Help our country, He can

Tax dropping low

Don't you know

Oils gonna flow

Drilling low, off shore

Our economy will grow

I want Obama
FORGET OBAMA,
Stick wit McCain you gone have some drama
MORE WAR IN IRAQ
Iran he will attack
CAN'T BRING OUR TROOPS BACK

We gotta vote

Obama on the left
McCain on the right
We can talk politics all night
And you can vote however you like
You can vote however you like, yeah

Democratic left
Republican right
November 4th we decide
And you can vote however you like
You can vote however you like, yeah

(McCain supporters)
McCain's the best candidate
With Palin as his running mate
They'll fight for gun rights, pro life,
The conservative right
Our future is bright
Better economy in site
And all the world will feel our military might

(Obama supporters)
But McCain and Bush are real close right
They vote alike and keep it tight
Obama's new, he's younger too
The Middle Class he will help you
He'll bring a change, he's got the brains
McCain and Bush are just the same
You are to blame, Iraq's a shame
Four more years would be insane

Lower your Taxes - you know Obama Won't
PROTECT THE LOWER CLASS - You know McCain won't!
Have enough experience - you know that they don't
STOP GLOBAL WARMING - you know that you won't

I want Obama
FORGET OBAMA
Stick with McCain and you're going to have some drama
We need it
HE'LL BRING IT
He'll be it
YOU'LL SEE IT
We'll do it
GET TO IT
Let's move it
DO IT!

Obama on the left

Below $2.00 that would be nice
But to do it right we gotta start today
Finding renewable ways that are here to stay
