To take Tim's comment

To take Tim's comment literally, here is a link to the lyrics of the song. What stands out for me about this video is how it embodies the message it wants to present through its use of so many (celebrity) people. More specifically, Obama's assertion that "we will remember that there is something happening in America/that we are not as divided as our politics suggests/that we are one people/we are one nation."
