Yes we can!
No im not talking about Obama. I'm done writing on his presidency for a while. Too many headaches coupled with endless frustration.
Instead, I'd like to take a minute at how viral his campaign was. In fact it was so catchy that the president of Iran decided to use the campaign slogan "yes we can" as a part of his latest bid to the Iranian presidency.
"Yes we can, Iran." Catchy isn't it?
Perhaps one of the most telling lessons from this forgery is that the public, whether in America or Iran, often craves style over substance; catchy slogans over sound political ethics. If Ahmadinejad can be reelected with the same drone-like chant, it will prove my point.
Although the name Ah-mad-in-e-jad does not flow off the tounge like the tri-syllable name O-ba-ma.
If only I could find the video...
