OK. So, needless to say my wife and I were a bit surprised when we first heard that Beth's 85 year-old grandmother, "Mima," had made a YouTube video for the MoveOn.org Barack Obama video contest.
We were even more astounded when we heard that the video was featured on CNN and the Huffington Post, among other news outlets.
But now that we've seen the video... well... we can't imagine anything better!
Mima's the one holding the sign with the first line of the video... and she's the author of the great rhymes!
***
Addendum (4/30/08): Sadly, Mima's video did not win. I feel slightly responsible, as I failed to circulate the link until several hours before voting closed.
Alas, while it will not win the contest, "White Haired Women Can Speak for Themselves" will always be #1 in our hearts!
