**UPDATE: I have received many questions about why the UK paper is represented by The Herald. This is because as I said, I gathered the images from newseum.com on June 4th.On June 4th, the only UK paper that made their frontpage available AND had Obama on the frontpage was The Herald. The other UK papers either did not have him on the cover so it didn't make sense to include them in the video, OR their frontpage simply wasn't available on newseum.com when I put this video together on the morning of June 4th. I did not pick and choose my favorite papers-in fact I included every paper I could find. I don't have a favorite UK paper and as an American I am most familiar with The Guardian so if it had been available to me, I would have definitely included it. **I gathered the images of newspapers for every state in the US, as well as several other countries, and compiled them into this video in a small gesture to mark an incredibly important historic event.All images are from www.newseum.comNo copyright infringement intended. This was just something I did to celebrate with other supporters.Songs are: Never Gonna Break My Faith, Soundtrack to the film Bobby. I chose this because after I watched the film it struck me how far we've come, and how some figures in political history just seem to live on forever. I believe that when history looks back on this race, Barack Obama will live among these heros such as Kennedy.Simply the Best by Tina Turner.I chose this because I have a friend who is a huge supporter and just loves this song. It's part of her "obama soundtrack" I've heard it's also gotten play at a few campaign events, though I can't confirm that.
