HooM! Point-Counterpoint: OBAMA'S AMERICA


BARACK OBAMA WILL BE OUR NEXT PRESIDENT

It's over. The election has been decided. The American people have spoken loud and clear, and Barack Obama will be our next president. Many have waited eight long years for this day. We have suffered through two disappointing and suspicious elections. We have watched while Bush has made disastrous decisions, ruined the lives of millions of citizens, put our fighting men and women in harm's way over a lie, and tarnished the image of America around the world.

We do not know what the future holds. There is a steep uphill battle to be fought to right the wrongs of our recent presidential administration. But today we should be proud that a new spirit of hopefulness has replaced the cynicism of our recent history. We should move forward together and write a new page in the ever-changing landscape of America. 


THIS GREAT VICTORY FOR AMERICA IS SOMEHOW ABOUT MY RECORD PRODUCED BY TIMBALAND IN STORES NOW

I feel a huge sense of relief. I feel lucky to be alive to witness what has happened in the U.S. over the last several months. To witness what happened today. Historical. We needed this. I needed this. I need hope. I feel hope when I see good in human nature. I have seen it a lot lately. Out on tour doing in-store visits with Timbaland signing posters. Taking pictures. Playing live with his band to fans who were open to a collaboration that is truly unique. I don't care what anyone says. What we did together is different than anything that has been done before, and I saw goodness in the people that came to the events with the willingness to be open to something different than what they are used to. Great people. Great fans. The best fans!
