[RollWithIt]

6. Out of curiosity, only because I haven't been to that area....

And I've been to most.... do they still speak french first? Like in regular conversation? I wouldn't think so, but just wondering.

[NOLALady]

9. When I drive through there,

I hear the Cajun French wherever I have to stop...gas stations, restaurants...when they speak to each other.

[lynettebro440]

7. Yes indeed

Cajun for Obama, that was fantastic, made me miss the days of dances all night to that music. And man that gumbo looked good...

10. sent a link for this to rachel maddow and it was on at the end of her

show - it was nice to see them play it

[waydownsouth]

11. Thanks for connecting us with Rachel

Thanks for making this happen!  Needless to say, it was a
thrill to see the video on Rachel's show less than 12 hours
after it went up on youtube!  I hope we can really push it
because I think the positive message and racial harmony are
going to be in direct contrast to the last 2 weeks of the
McCain campaign.  Any more great ideas?

12. I sent a the link to obama

you might want to send it to dems in louisiana

[2Design]

13. send a link to howard dean, Jon Stewart, M ichael Moore, Stephen Colbert

Dean is who got Obama on the board with his 50 state strategy. When they needed money in Illinois Barack was one like they do with Act Blue now - so people donated from all over the country back when he had Democracy for America supporting under funded people around the country

15. send a link to bill maher and maybe the head of dems in each state n/t

Get it on your local tv station - send it to Anderson cooper on CNN
Just spread it around - short and sweet notes

All I did is put in the subject field

great video for barack obama - french lousiana

and then put the link in the body

18. Hey waydownsouth,

Thanks so much for that uplifting video. I downloaded the MP3 version.

I sent it to all of my evacuee friends and family. They loved it and decided to respond in French, Cajun and Creole.

Gotta love the Cajun cuzans. GeauxBama!

[hisownpetard]

21. Good job!

[DemoTex]

14. You can't get much more multi-cultural than this!

Very refreshing, indeed.

[Eryemil]

17. A whole new Louisiana

This is not exactly what would have come to mind, before today, when someone would mention the state of Louisiana to me.
Here's to changed perspectives, this video will always now always be in my mind.

[southern_belle]

19. This brought tears to me eyes.

Love it!!!! :applause:
