biographical info

In anticipation of the vitality and energy that President Barack Obama will bring to the United States of America, I offer this free download for everyone to enjoy.

Obama Vitality Rag

Ragtime is truly an American music that originated before the Great Depression. In the face of the current political and economic situation there have been many references to this period of time and to the first 100 days after President Franklin Roosevelt's inauguration and the “New Deal” he pledged and delivered to the American people. President Barack Obama has overcome enormous obstacles to get where he is today and yet he faces even bigger challenges. People around the world are celebrating the first black president and eagerly anticipating the events of the next days and months ahead.
