过大年玩游戏之第一季:功夫选举

美国民主党和共和党党内初选激战正酣,我们只是瞧瞧热闹罢了。如果这是江湖上选武林盟主就更好玩了。好,我们就让他们来场功夫选举,以拳脚定输赢。

上图是我用希拉里大战哈克比的场面,不幸两局都败下阵来。希拉里使得是两把铁扇,独门秘技是分身大法,分出他丈夫去打。似这等独门武器和秘技,每个候选人都有。来战斗吧!

Yes We Can

Yes We Can,一场激情和信念喷薄而出的演讲,来自Barack Obama;Yes We Can,一首坚定与希望柔和的歌曲,来自DipDive

Yes We Can

It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.

Yes we can.

It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom.

Yes we can.

It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.

Yes we can.

It was the call of workers who organized; women who reached for the ballots; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land.

Yes we can to justice and equality.

Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.

Yes we can heal this nation.

Yes we can repair this world.

Yes we can.

We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.

We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics…they will only grow louder and more dissonant ……….. We’ve been asked to pause for a reality check. We’ve been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.

But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.

Now the hopes of the little girl who goes to a crumbling school in Dillon are the same as the dreams of the boy who learns on the streets of LA; 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; and together, we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words that will ring from coast to coast; from sea to shining sea –

Yes. We. Can.

Obama girl is back!

美国总统选举为全世界人民提供了一场盛大的娱乐秀,而Obama girl则是这场秀中的一名出色的演员。从去年开始,她以各种形式公开支持民主党候选人Obama的视频,在youtube上迅速蹿红,最高观看过百万。

Obama是民主党阵营中希拉里最致命的竞争者,这从我们之前的文章可以了解到一些。今天最新推出的视频“Obama girl returns for Iowa”在短短两个小时内,观看数字已经突破7.4万。在这个视频中,obama girl为了Obama在爱荷华州的竞选而出山,不仅在拳坛上击败了希拉里的支持者,而且孤身一人直捣希拉里的竞选总部,救出了人质。

本集中的一些经典台词:

1. “Girl, your candidate needs you.”

2.”Obama girl is back!”

3. “Do you think she can really change the course of the election? she’s just a girl.”
“No, she’s obama girl.”

Obama Girl Returns for Iowa! 

Obama Girl is back for the election of Iowa, in this new video, she not only defeats the supporter of Hillary but also rescues the hostage out of the Hillary election headquarter alone. See the video above.

从网站点击看美国大选——11月之民主党篇

如果现在就投票,谁将胜出?这是总统选举中媒体经常炒作的话题。互联网数据分析网站Compete根据美国本土访问候选人网站的独立访问者数量给出了自己的答案。今天给出的是民主党11月的选情分析,数据来自于各位候选人网站的监测数据,比如Obama的网站barackobama,Hillary的网站hillarycliton。具体的访问量请看下面这张表。

Barack Obama和Hillary Clinton以318,179和289,615个独立访问者遥遥领先。与10月相比,Obama的访问数量上升了13%,而Hillary的则下降了10%。再看看各州的支持情况,见下图,点击看大图。

在Obama和Hillary的比较中,访问Hillary网站的主要是东部沿海各州,和中部及北部的几个所谓山地州。而访问Obama网站的人员来源却比较评价。

从以上两个数据来看,在民主党中,Obama的赢得初选的胜算最大。明天将发布共和党的数据,让我们拭目以待。(图片来自Compete)
