The New York Times reports that last week Barack and Deval, who are good friends, had a conversation and that Deval suggested that Barack use these lines, and Deval sent Barack a copy of the speech for his use.
Furthermore, Hillary herself has led chants of "Yes we can" at her campaign rallies, and also, she attacked Barack by asking "Where's the beef?" which was the phrase used by Walter Mondale to attack Gary Hart in 1984 (and also was lifted from a Wendy's commercial).

I kinda thought Hillary and Obama were both plagiarizing illegal aliens with that "yes we can" crap.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think "si se puedes" translates into?
