I’ve got 2 video compilations here of Barack Obama and all his baby kissing. Enjoy!
Babies for Barack OBAMA! (Part 1 The Ramones):
Babies for Barack OBAMA! (Part 2 Love Is All Around):
Here’s the video from the Republican Convention of Piper Palin spit shining Trig Palin’s hair during her mother’s (Alaska Governor Sarah Palin) Veep acceptance speech.
Today’s post is a collection of things found around the intertubes. First is a link to a CNN video about candidates kissing babies. This is actually what gave me the idea to do this site. I just never thought about linking to this video until today, click here to see it (launches a new window).
And here’s a story from a mother that wanted her 5 month old baby photographed with every presidential candidate.
And the following video is a funny piece by Bryan Barton, an aspiring politician, giving advice to political candidates on the proper way to kiss babies. Enjoy!
And here’s a Flickr of Obama by paulwm.
And here’s a photo of Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin getting kissed by a toddler.
Barack doesn’t actually kiss the baby until the very end - the video is about 2 1/2 minutes. The first part of the video is the announcer hyping the crowd up. Which results in a near hysterical crowd by the time Obama emerges, that’s the interesting part. This “Rockstar” status that Obama has with his supporters is most intriguing.
From the YouTube info:
“At a town hall meeting in Bristol, VA, Democratic Presidential nominee Senator Barack Obama approaches the crowd shakes hands and subsequently hugs my mom and kisses a little girl.”
It’s about 2 1/2 minutes long and pretty bad quality with no sound.
As I’ve been searching through the interwebs for these videos and photos, what I’ve found is interesting. There are tons of videos of babies and Senator Barack Obama, fewer photos. There are tons of photos of President George Bush kissing babies (actually a lot of photos of George kissing lots of babies, politicians and foreign dignitairies) but no videos. There aren’t any photos or videos from the Clintons, neither is there any for Senator McCain.
I don’t know what any of that means, just something I’ve been observing. So, if you know of anything that I haven’t stumbled across yet, send me a note about it.
