"We Are the Ones"

Following up on the success of his "Yes, We Can," the Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am has just released a new video supporting Barack Obama, titled "We Are the Ones." This one features, among others, celebrities like Jessica Alba, Ryan Phillippe, John Leguizamo and Macy Gray. (And, continuing the trend of featuring actors from awesome sitcoms gone by -- the last video had Tatyana Ali, the actress who played Ashley on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" -- this installment has Malcolm-Jamal Warner, better known as Theo Huxtable.) The full video is below.
