The Story of "Fired up! Ready to go!" - Obama for America 2012
Are you in? my.barackobama.com Edith S. Childs is the one that got Barack Obama fired up. While attending a small campaign event in Greenwood, South Carolina, then-Senator Obama first heard the chant "Fired up! Ready to Go!". As then-Senator Obama shared in his pre-election night speech in Virginia: "After a minute or so I'm feeling kind of fired up. I'm feeling like I'm ready to go! So I joined in the chant. And it feels good. And for the rest of the day, even after we left Greenwood, I'd see my staff and I'd say, 'Are you fired up?' They'd say 'We're fired up boss. Are you ready to go?' I'd say, 'I'm ready to go.' So some people start putting 'Fired up! Ready to go!' on their shirts. Some people start putting 'Fired up! Ready to go!' on signs. Everybody's saying 'Fired up!' and 'Ready to go!' It shows you what one voice can do. One voice can change a room. And if a voice can change a room it can change a city. And if it can change a city it can change a state. And if it can change a state it can change the nation. And if it can change the nation it can change the world. Your voice can change the world." April 4th, 2012 is the one year anniversary of the 2012 campaign. Help President Obama stand up for working Americans. Join this campaign now. my.barackobama.com From: BarackObamadotcom Views: 60020 1038 ratings Time: 04:32 More in News & Politics

Mock Presidential Briefing
[LESS INFO] 37 VIEWS | ADDED 00:55:00 03/31/09
This week Indymedia presents a mock presidential briefing, which was conducted recently at the Vets For Peace Northwest Regional Conference. Ray McGovern plays himself (a CIA intelligence officer) while Michael McPhearson, national Executive Director of Veterans For Peace plays President Obama.
Ray McGovern is a retired CIA officer turned political activist. He served under 6 or 7 presidents during his 27 year career, and was responsible for preparing daily security briefings for a number of them, including President Reagan and the first President Bush. He became an outspoken critic on intelligence-related issues starting in the late 1990s. In 2002 he was publicly critical of President George W Bush's use of government intelligence in the lead-up to the US invasion of Iraq. McGovern, who was in Seattle to present a keynote address at the conference, brings his vast experience to life in this mock briefing, which was filmed live by PepperSpray at the Vets For Peace conference. The skit touches on a number of current foreign policy topics with insight and humor.

Recrui-ducation / Judas Goat / Rebel Voices / Franklyn Lopez

Tajuan LaBee is the PepperSpray Collective's newest member, and he lost no time finishing his first piece for PepperSpray, which is the lead segment in this week's "Indymedia Presents." He was on hand at Seattle Central Community College when student activists recently staged a counter-recruiting action. His footage forms the basis for "Recrui-ducation." Stopping the flow of recruits into the military remains and will continue to be an important political and practical tactic in limiting US efforts to wage aggressive wars. Beyond that, it has the potential to save the lives of those who otherwise might be recruited. A few years back, students at SCCC made national headlines when they ran recruiters off their campus. Apparently the military thought this might be the time to sneak back on campus. The recruiters were met with a spirited action, and Tajuan got it on tape. With the airing of his first PepperSpray production, we publicly welcome Tajuan into our merry band.
We dipped into the archives to follow Tajuan's piece with our short "Judas Goat." A judas Goat is a trained slaughterhouse animal that leads the others to their death, only to be spared the knife itself, so it may lead herd after herd into the killing chambers. Recruiters perform a similar function. So long as they can deliver a supply of fresh recruits for the front lines, military recruiters don't have to go themselves.
Next up, we turn to a bit of music that continues the theme, featuring Seattle's daring duo, Rebel Voices, singing "Put your name on a different line." This material was filmed live in Seattle in 2008 and was edited into this piece to accompany Tajuan's "Recrui-ducation.
Rounding out our show we are VERY pleased to include Episode 1 of Franklyn Lopez's third season of "It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine." Regular viewers will welcome Franklyn's work back to the little screen. Last fall the Swami of Snark announced that he was not going to be producing "End of the World" while he pursued other things, but luckily he just couldn't help himself. This episode features:
1. Greece is the word
2. Oakland riots
3. Sea Shepherd stink bomb attack
4. Coal christmas
5. The first auction hero
6. Anarchists Against the Wall
7. Barack Israel Obama
8. Buh Bye King of Pain
