Celine Dion's ditty was originally meant for Air Canada, the song "You And I," selected as the winning song.In the video, Hillary thumbs through the jukebox selections at a café near her home in Chappaqua, New York, as the former President questions his wife about the campaign and the contest winner.

Johnny Sacks aka John Sacrimoni aka Vincent Curatola has to be the hottest old guy I have ever seen!!!! Hillary is so lucky to have had him in her video. I thought it was very good and I do not think it would have been better with Tony Soprano aka James Gandolfini. Anyway, Hillary rules! Barack Obama sucks.
