One of my favorite bloggers, Steve Clemons of The Washington Note, posted the following on Wednesday afternoon.
Senator Jeff Bingaman's support group in New Mexico used to be called (and may still be) "A Lot of Folks for Jeff Bingaman." I always liked how unpretentious the name of his PAC was.
Well. . .I have stumbled across "A Lot of Saudis and Israelis for Barack Obama." They aren't a single group -- but it's clear Obama is popular across the Middle East.
I haven't received an email video of Israelis for McCain, though I know there are some -- and I haven't received graphics that are pro-McCain and anti-Obama from Saudi Arabia. If I do, I'll consider posting them.
But I have to share the video [below] -- which is powerful and gripping -- of many in Israel who support Barack Obama. Beware, it triggers tears in some.
Do go out to Steve's site and look at the other goodies he has on the support Obama has in the Middle East. Sometimes we forget that it's a very large world and the decisions we make can have an impact on so much of it.
My very first YouTube embed!! You young whippersnappers are faster but we Old Farts figure it out, eventually...
