Even my Republican momma...

I’ve been posting about politics and music lately, obsessed by the one and trying to use the other to chill out. Here’s a much more useful, incalculably cooler Latin combination of the two, from Jose Conde y Ola Fresca.

The Obama campaign has inspired a lot of this sort of freelance creative political expression.

Despite my last name, I have no Spanish. In the U.S. these days, that’s really my loss. There’s a terrific culture bubbling away out there (not to mention lots of Dominican ballplayers!).

Fortunately, as embarrassed as I feel to need them, the YouTube comes with subtitles.

I’m looking for eyes that see clearly

Ears that hear the truth

Pain that feels hope
