"BY THE PEOPLE: THE ELECTION OF BARACK OBAMA is a moving record of the Obama campaign's history-making odyssey to the White House. Interwoven with the drama of the campaign is never-before-seen footage of Obama behind the scenes, as well as interviews and candid moments with wife Michelle Obama, the couple's young daughters, Malia and Sasha, and senior campaign staff, volunteers, reporters, supporters and opponents."

In this context, I believe we have here a love song to the Prez.  And it had to be written well before he secured the nomination.  

Look at you
Such a fine citizen
Look at you
Such a glowing example of peace and glory. Glory. Glory.
Of peace and Glory. Glory. Glory.
Let me follow you.

We believe in your power to lead
without fear.
Not above, in some tower,
but here-right down here-... with us
in this world.

Look at you
everywhere at once
Look at you
such a glowing example of peace and glory. Glory. Glory.
Of peace and glory. Glory. Glory.
Let me... let me follow... let me... let me follow you

sadly, it does.

i still think the song is about Jesus Christ....for me at least, that's what the song is about

The song is about Jim's grandma who passed away.  But I think it took on a new meaning around election time.  Jim performed it at an Obama benefit and would talk politics before playing before the election.

The only way this "discussion" could be less productive is if MMJFanatic shows up.
