Here's a video I found quite by accident that is celebrating Obama's victory, but moreso has the great voice of Lena Horne from the 60's covering "Hava Nagila" to make it very relevant to ending the Vietnam war messes and challenging to end the problems with civil rights then.

She reminds us of all of our forefathers and their actions and how important doing things constitutionally is. We must keep that message alive.

Amazingly, I discovered this watching a documentary on Cuban filmmaker Santiago Alvarez, "Accelerated Underdevelopment" that just aired on Free Speech TV who also put Lena Horne's universal message to his documentaries back in the 60's too in that documentary.
