Hillary Clinton, you are the best, you are the next President of USA. We love you and we vote you. Don't listen junk people's trash. You have the complete qualification, Americans know it.
Just marching forward with your husband together, we welcome you any day and any time until you move in to the White House.

I loved this and the fact that she can take care of business and have time to be human. Who the hell wants a mindless thoughtless robot in office...oh that would be everyone that voted for George W. GO HILLARY. You have my support, money and confidence.

Great! Clever! An add like this continues to pull me toward a 'HILLARY VOTE'. Keep up the witty, positive direction.

Republicans: go away.

The entire concept is wrong on so many levels. A Dion song, a copied video idea, and the making of a campaign song selection look like a big thing. It reflects all the negative image and flaws that the rest of the world sees in the American democratic process. The greatest of all being flash over substance. What does she stand for? Where does she want to lead America and the world? It also reflects the demise of a meaningful political process into catering to a pop culture instant media machine and being more worried about the images than the ideas.

I would agree that most Republicans have made up their mind about her. For example, I think if the Clinton's donated all their personal assets to charity, people like Joe in Midlothian and t Banks in Stillwater would denigrate it as an attempt to turn money into votes.

Hillary's numbers and Obama's shift around from one week to the next among likely Democratic voters. I agree with what you said–this was an effort to solve the likeability problem. Unlike you, I think she has a real chance of winning the presidency, and I think this video helped.

Its amazing that so many people judge candidates based on things like this. Everyone I've ever met who voted for GW Bush say they did so because he was cool, or funny, or a regular guy, or tough. What??? This got us where?

And even after moving to put the first constitutional changes into effect which LIMIT rather than EXPAND citizens' rights (minus Prohibition)...even after appointing cronies that lie and scheme like Cheney and Rove, who hire/fire on ideology (and again, lie) like Gonzales, who don't 'waste' time planning, or becoming informed, or using common sense like Rumsfeld, or can't respond to Katrina because they were an underexperienced old-boy network appointed FEMA director like 'Brownie'....even after creating this lie that people still believe that Iraq helped al-Qaeda in order to get us into-Iraq...even after we've bullied every country that wanted to help after 9/11 into saying 'forget you America'....even after we've created a War Czar to manage America's war(a freaking War Czar, talk about wrong direction America!?!)...even after the gov't was caught altering scientists' reports on global warming to deny its existence...even after circumventing congress to try and torture captives and spy on Americas...after calling the Constitution of the US 'quaint'...

You want to bash someone's commercial, choice of song, and the singer's nationality?!? I would expect this on Fox'News'...but CNN?

Unfortunately we – collectively – reap what we sow.

How about going to the candidates' websites and spending a precious hour of your time deciding who might be the best person to lead your country for the next FOUR YEARS?

"You and I" composers – Aldo Nova and Jacques Duval

I watched the video several times and have yet to find a scene where I both Bill and Hillary are present. They appear to be in several scenes together but it looks like some clever editing to me.

I'd go with "Evil Woman" by ELO

Several years ago, my Mom told me that she would leave the country if Hillary was ever elected President. She passed last year so she will not have to leave but a son should always listen to his Mom!

Ahh, the 90's, that was when the birds were singing and the world loved us so much and the interns and others were gaga all over over our President, while the "smart" and strong(?) first lady said nothing. One indescretion you can possibly tolerate, but repeated flings?

That is not a powerful woman, that is a power hungry woman.

I would have so much respect for her if in front of congress she rightfully flipped him off and said "I want a divorce".

Hillary is what America Needs! I have traveled to many countries and I can not tell you how many times I have heard bad things about Bush and great things about the Clintons.

Hillary is reaching out to the internet crowd – a lot of whom will be voting for the first time. She is a very smart lady and she knows how to campaign. Everyone else may as well step down – We have us another Clinton for 8 more years – THANK GOD!

Love you Hillary!

"Bill Clinton made a mockery of America when he was in office, Hillary showed she didn’t care about morality"

If anyone has made a mockery of America in my mind, it is none other than George W. Bush! He has been known as "Mr. Shrub" since his days as Govenor of Texas when Texas Death Row statistics were highter than those of any other country in the World!

And on the subject of morality – I guess it's immoral to have the courage and strength to stay in a marriage and take the high road but morally sound to initiate a war on a false premise sadly resulting in millions of innocent civilians being killed for reasons beyond their control or understanding! Not to mentions the thousands of military heroes who will never come home!

Pleaseeeeeeeee give me a break.

I just wanted to add something to my earlier comment. We need to turn the page and end the potential dynasty the Bush/Clintons have had for 20 years.

Obama '08!!!!

Yea, Celine Dion is Canadian! But as another poster commented now lives in Las Vegas, Making Lots of Money for Americans! She's a very Talented Artist and Very Compassionate Humanitarian. Celine donated a large sum to the Katrina Disaster and gave an interview to CNN teary eyed about the Katrina Victims still on their roofs for three days! Yeah she's Canadian, and it shows!

Our Military in Afghanistan are Canadians too! They are there fighting George W. Bush's War. Sadly many of our heroes have died along with many Americans, British, et al. We at home have endured Tax Increases, are putting up with less than adequate Health Care,et al to pay for George W. Bush's needless War.

In Gratitude he refuses our lumber, potatoes, and pork. Slaps our markets with weighty tariffs, forgets the name of our Prime Minister, and in general fashion Snubs us.

Yeah, Celine and I are both Canadians, who are like all Canadians, proud of our Nation and quick to come to the aid of other Nations, or foreign citizens in need.

I say Hillary could have done much worse as far as a Campaign Theme Song.
Congrats to the Contestants! I don't hear Celine complaining about her talent being used by an American. Then many Canadians are Pro Hillary, myself just one of the many. I'm sure no Canadian will mind Hillary using Canadian Talent to boost her Campaign. After having to suffer the effects of Bush's Reign, I'm sure every Canadian would jump at the chance.

All Anti Canadian comments welcome at Canadiansforpeace.com

The winning song is "Lunatic Fringe" by Red Rider.

Fresh and fun. It's great to see the lighter side of such a bright, capable candidate for President.

It's Prophetic!

The Clinton Campaign is going to "Fade to Black" after the first Primaries and it will anger some while delighting others just like the Sopranos, but above all, it will shock everyone.

ROFLMAO!

Obama 2008 ! In the interest of pstisan disclosure.

Just goes to show the Clintons still live in the fantasy world. They try to get all their recognition from tv stunts. Bill Clinton made a mockery of America when he was in office, Hillary showed she didn't care about morality all they do is suck up our money even now as we have to pay for their million dollar home. Get them out of politics!!!!!!!!

First of all the song is really horrible, and if they were going to use a song by some Canadian, they could have chose a lot better. Like "New Orleans is Sinking" by the Tragically Hip.

Most people have already made up their mind about Hillary one way or the other. She's been front and center in the public eye for almost 20 years.

I personally wouldn't vote for her, but I think that, like the video Bill did just prior to leaving office, this video shows some humor and connects with many everyday people. Hillary suffers from a likeability deficit and this helps to temper that to a degree, but it won't change the minds of most people one way or the other. More power to her, but I think in the end she is unelectable.

I think the those who are complaining at nauseum about Hillary Clinton would serve this country a lot better by focusing their anger and attention on the problems THEY created by electing THEIR current president, who is now responsible for the deaths of more American lives than Osama Bin Laden. Hillary Clinton is a strong, intelligent woman, which is the only reason she is so demonized. It is going to take someone with the wisdom and insight of Hillary Clinton to clean up the mess YOU created by electing a warmonger who has only served to create an enormous deficit by reckless spending and an illegal war. I wish her luck. I wish this country luck on getting back on track to fiscal responsibility and international respect. I fear though she will need more than luck, or a "catchy theme song" to win the presidency. Chauvanism is alive and well in the USA.

If this video doesn't bring a smile to your face then you have a heart of stone. BTW Mike Buble and Rick James both sang "You & I".
Betcha an American wrote it..anyone know the songwriter?

The Clintons hold no comparison to the Sopranos. I'd vote for Carmella as our next president over Hillary Clinton any day of the week.

It figures. The Clintons once again can't come up with any original material, and have to live off the labors of others.

clever campaining...terrible acting...

DIDN'T HILLARY HIRE SOME BIG BLOGGER TO "MANAGE" HER IMAGE ON THE BLOGS? mmmmmmm.

I think this is great. I sure hope she wins the Presidential race. We need someone in there that knows what they are doing. It's for sure we haven't had that in a long time!!!!!

TYPICAL HILL AND BILL. THE COUNTRY IS STUPID AND WE WILL NOW THINK THEY ARE COOL.

Is there anyone at CNN.com who can spell every day? Depending on the usage every day may be one word or two. CNN.com has never gotten the two-word usage right. Since it's your job to write, could you please learn how?

HER GRAND MUSICAL IDEAS SOUNDS OFF LIKE A LEAKY PAD...

Can't they just go away. Fade into obscurity.

I did like the "no onion rings" joke making fun of Bill's eating habits.

But seriously...should people really decide what candidate to choose based on meaningless commercial?

Or what song is chosen?

I would hope not.

Simply marvellous

If anything, this wanton display of non chalance and lack of respect with regard to the importance of holding the office of President, proves that Mrs. Clinton is not the right woman for the job! Poor Bill, poor Hillary, poor us- USA.

Brilliant. The only time Hillary feels presidential is when Bill is with her. This was a great idea, hip, funny, shows a lighter side, and features her biggest advantage-Bill. How many more agonizing days before Dumbva's show cuts to black??

She should have stuck with Journey. The sweet voice of Steve Perry would rocket any candidate to the highest office.

This is a dumb song, but I love the Clintons and what they do for our world. Can't wait to get rid of Bush and Cheney. Bill in Falls Church said it best.

1/20/09 can't get here fast enough...

It really kills me to see all this Hillary bashing but then again I am happy. It tells me that these Republicans are scared right now. It's a song for God sake. A campaign song and not some legislature to interfere with my civil liberties or sent brave young americans to fight a wrong war. I wish some of these Republicans used the same vile language with the President Bush before he dragged us into this mess. I think the Clintons captured a whole new demographic with this parody. It tells me they identify with you and I and popular culture. Kudos!!!! Deal with it Republicans...she will be President. It's good to have something to smile to considering this will be a long and nasty campaign. We didn't have a war on Bill Clinton's reign and an attack on our civil liberties like we have right now

To Jim of Chicago, JT of Atlanta, Dave of Philadelphia, Brian of Indiana, and Anonymous of...uhh...Anonymous:

200,000 AMERICANS voted for the song, not Hillary. Take a chill pill folks. If you don’t like Hillary then just say so instead of ragging on her about a song contest. It’s just plain childish.

It's nice to know that all of the world's problems have been solved, so Hilary has enough free time to make some silly video clips about her campaign theme song for YouTube!

that was terrible. Not a good song either. I'll vote for H if she ends up the nominee, but this is just embarassing to watch.

I love to see the comments of people who say, "oh, she lost my vote because of that video, song, etc." Get a life and a sense of humor people. Haven't we learned anything in the last eight years? Lighten up. Geez!

A more appropriate celine dion song for Hilary is "Where does my Heart Beat Now?"

It's a good video. Great idea. But I agree with the others–Celine Dion? And a French Canadian,no less. Plus the song is just plain lame, to put it bluntly. Fitting, though. Celine Dion learned English so she could sing in English to reach a wider audience–that is, the lucrative American market. Purely for selfish reasons. Just like Hillary. Amorphous and doing whatever it takes to further her own selfish goals. The Hillary we see now is not the Hillary we were first introduced to. And frighteningly, as fickle as we are as a country, together with our short memories and attention spans, she just may be our next President.

This is a reply to "It would be nice if Hillary chose an American musician," posted by Jim earlier today.

Well, Jim, if you actually read the story that you were commenting on, you would know that Senator Clinton did not choose the artist. The song/artist was the winner of a Campaign Song Contest on Senator Clinton's website ... 200,000 people voted.

The reason we have Mr. Bush leading our country to unimaginable disgrace is because too many people can't assess a candidate before voting just like Jim can't assess an article before commenting on it.

Excellent job!! Go Hillary!!!!!!

That was a very clever ad. I do hope Hilary wins. I'm sick of the chaos the current administration created. No matter what is said about the Clintons' personal lives, the Clinton administration had much better diplomatic relations with the rest of the world than the current administration could hope for.

First of all, I absolutely love Celine Dion, but I wouldn't have chosen that song. "You and I" has NOTHING to do with Clinton's political campaign ... It's a love song! It is far more fitting with an Air Canada campaign as it at least talks about flying ... Not the best choice. What angered me the most was that Hillary used it for her campaign ... I wish a better candidate used one of Celine Dion's songs.

Also, from the other comments that I've read: Celine Dion does own numerous homes in the United States, works promarily in the United States, and works for American charities. If we can vote an Austrian to be governor of California I don't think that choosing a Canadian-born singer for a campaign song is so bad.

Who cares is right.
I lived in NY for 8 years and let me tell you Hillary did NOTHING for Western NY. Absolutely NOTHING and I have no respect for her. The only thing she did for NY was give more to NYC (nothing against NYC what so ever).
The saying is true, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
She never helped any of the struggling communities after 9-11, after Enron, after anything. She just made sure the people she knew she could get votes from were treated like royalty. (NYC)

"another one bites the dust" might be more suitable for her campaing!

If people did their research they will find out Hillary is NOT the best candidate for president.
We already had one intern(al) affair, do we need more??

Someone needs to remind Mike B that Hillary voted for the Iraq War...NEWSFLASH MIKE!

Thank you even more Elizabeth D, Orlando, FL.

Celine Dion? Isn't she CANADIAN?!?!

It amazes me that some of you are even capable of finding cnn's website! Newsflash: the American people picked the song! 2nd Newsflash: Celine Dion isn't in Canada, she's in Vegas, making money for American companies! 3rd Newsflash: If you were as critical of the Iraq war as you are of something as insignificant as Hillary's campaign song, maybe we'd never be in this mess to begin with!

Aw, lighten up, people! I'm not a Hillary-fan, but the video was a riot. And those of you getting your nose out of joint because of the choice of a Celine Dion song ... COME ON ... it's a SONG, folks. It's a campaign song, not a nomination for a new national anthem.

Thank you Best, Bill of Falls Church, VA.

PS
Not only does that song suck, it takes sucking to a whole new level. She lost my vote with that song . . .

that song sucks!

How about a song from an American artist Hillary? The Clintons belong with Dion in Canada...

I'm sorry, but that is a terrible song. Nothing says 'America!' better then a song by a French Canadian!

Once again, the Clinton family shows that it can "walk with kings and keep the common touch." It appears that many people commenting on the video and the song choice didn't like the eight years of peace and prosperity that Bill and Hillary Clinton helped create during the last Democratic presidency. I suppose anti-Clinton Republicans prefer the wholesale carnage, White House-sponsored torture and influence peddling of the Bush/Cheney cabal, a craven coven of lickspittles for the plutocrats and polluters.

Best, Bill, Falls Church, Va.

Bill & Hillary are both very bright individuals. We had it pretty good under the Clinton administration. I feel that the average American has lost their country under Bush. The thought of the Clintons being back in the White House is very appealing to me!

I don't know what's worse – them putting together that crappy "production" or knowing that I am going to have to listen to Celine Dion for the next year or so

This was incredibly creative and clever and shows that the Clintons and their team are aware of what goes in the world around them and how it impacts people.

And for all the idiots out there...HILLARY did not choose the theme song! If you learn to READ you would see that 250,000 Americans voted in a song contest and THEY chose the song. THEY chose a Canadian singer and a Canadian song in an online ELECTION.

Now its true that for the last 7 years elections in America under George Bush haven't meant anything. But that's finally changing.

Hilary supporters must be proud. Instead of talking about where she stands on important issues, she uses a Sapranos re-make. Nice.

Pretty patriotic, that Hillary. Nothing says America like a Canadian singer.

The ad was funny, but how sad it was to see Hillary had to import her campaign song from Canada. This is indicitive of her foriegn policy.

Oh hell.... I wish that Gore would run, or that people would pay more attention to the other candidates such as Mike Gravel. At least his rock tossing is funny.

how about Rick James' "You and I"

One thing is clear from this string of correspondence and that is Hillary is polarizing. This is not what I want in my leader....and it's only a video!

Well, the real disappointment didn't come from the video cutting to black...it came when I found out she selected Celine Dion as her campaign song!

I am a republican, and I do not like Hillary. However, I think a video like this is great. Not sure why people are angry about a video. Hillary is running a primary election and her biggest competitor is Obama. The biggest threat to a Clinton's nomination is that Obama is very likeable and she is not. A new video like this will make her seems funnier and likable.

That was a cute video. Nice to see a little fun injected into this terribly long campaign.

Love some of the comments from the more conservative folk here, Hilary is their bogeyman (woman?) and you can just smell the FEAR radiating off 'em. You just don't waste that kind of energy and emotion on someone who doesn't matter. Tells me all I need to know about Clinton's chances!

the Clinton's never had an origianl idea in their lives!

I thought it was quite clever.
I don't think the point was to be original here... it was supposed to be a parody which they did quite well. I'm pretty sure if she wanted something original, they would have came up with it.

Besides, its not like it's as much about a song as it is about exposure for the Clinton campaign, but on that aspect it worked quite well.

I for one support her. Lets put Bill back in office.

I thought it was a very clever and timely way to announce the campaign song. It shows that she is not above the popular cultural interests of the American people.
I would have chosen another song.

I love how it just kills some of you people to see the Clintons back. It's great!

As far as her values are concerned, I think keeping a marriage together and actually working on it instead of throwing in the towel like most do, is a real value. Tells us that she is willing to stick by a commitment even when the going gets tough.

As far as liberals never complimenting the other side, well if Bush gave us something to compliment that might be a different story! He's an unmitigated disgrace.

Giggle,giggle, shows how totally current this campaign is. One wants their candidate to be totally alert to all realities of today.
Hillary Clinton is allowing you to see a minute view of a complicated multi dimensional extra ordinarily high I Q. I Enjoyed, you enjoy...

Well... they certainly have that mob theme in common.

Can this woman not be original in any aspect period. I am so sick and tired of her, she is a disgrace to all women period. She is more concerned with theme songs then actually telling us what she stands for, but then again when she does she changes her mind. Get rid of her period, she is no example to women and women should be disgusted with her, I guess it is ok to put up with her husbands filandering as long as there is something she can get, this is a real shining example to her daughter. Glad I brought mine up with Morals and Values, it does not take a village to raise a child it takes a parent who is willing to do the work and teach morals and values something this woman has no idea what that is.

It would be nice if Hillary chose an American musician.

I hate, loathe and detest this two phonies, but I have to say, that was clever.

That's why I am proudly what I am, we can hammer our party when needed, praise the other party when deserved unlike liberals who can do neither.

Well done.

That was so cheesy.

Amazingly fast turn around time since the Soprano's episode didn't air that long ago. I thought it was a neat idea and a sure way to show at least the viewers of that TV series that someone in their camp keeps an eye on what is going on in the world.

Lets see, 8 years of Clinton, 8 years of Bush and another 4 years of Clinton. God help us if this %^& makes it

I can't be certain that selecting a Celine Dion song is going to get her any votes.

now effectively ruining that song for all listeners.

Nice to see a sense of humor given all of the nastiness we've seen in past campaigns. Thanks for putting a smile on my face for a change.

Lame – totally lame.

this is such a long campaign, thanks for bringing some humor and sillyness to it

Who cares? It's nice to see Hillary and her campaign have so much time to entertain us with something so trivial as her campaign song announcement.
