Welcome to the Future

This is pretty much the most unbelievable thing I've ever seen.
Its like a google map that tracks where each candidate has visited over the entire course of the campaign period. It basically lets you see where and when the candidates have been spending their time campaigning.
But wait! There's more!
And this is the cool part, if you click on one of the candidate icons a little window pops up with a youtube clip of their speech there and any relevant local news articles. Anyway, you're all capable users of the internet I'm sure you'll figure it out yourselves.
One thing to direct your attention to: Type "Madison, WI" into the geographical search field and make sure you have the date set for February, 12. Also, make sure you have the Obama option selected. Click on the Obama icon and listen to his speech.
A couple of minutes in he thanks his Director of Wisconsin Students for Obama....
AIESEC MADISON'S OWN BRYON EAGON!
My dream is in the 2028 elections to have the superstar front runner get up in front of a crowd of 20,000 people, yell "HEY AIESEC" over the microphone, and get the deafening roar 20,000 "HEY WHAT!?!"'s
Now how amazing would that be...

That WOULD be pretty durn amazing, Andrew. To quote Jon Stewart from the Oscars last night, "Whenever you see a woman or a black president in the movies, an asteroid is about to hit the Statue of Liberty...IT'S THE FUTURE!"
