The event will feature performances by Rolling Stone's 2008 "Artist to Watch" Santogold; Hip Hop Hall of Fame artists De La Soul; and 2009 Grammy nominee Moby, who will DJ after the live set. Comedian Sarah Silverman and others are set to attend, officials said.

The Manifest Hope: DC art gallery, which features an array of the nation's most talented visual artists under one roof to mark the inauguration, will be open Jan.17-19. The project's goal is to encourage artists and activists to maintain the momentum from the presidential campaign and "bring real reform in three key areas: healthcare, worker's rights, and the green economy." On Jan. 19, Shepard Fairey's iconic "Hope" image will be on display at the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery. It will be the first portrait of Obama to be hosted at the gallery.

I'm glad to see a good use of technology to promote democracy rather than sell something. I will register on this website, just to see what MoveOn members have to say about the final health care bill and if support or oppose it. I also want to check their position on pokerice legalization, as I heard that Barack Obama was a poker player. Jouer au poker en ligne sur poker770 et remportez un package WSOP gratuit
