"how many people work in a city you can't afford to live in?" 2008 The mortgage crisis. "work at a mall you can't afford to shop in or clean a hotel you an't afford to stay in" the 2008 recession, "a hospital you can't even afford to get sick in" 2011 Government care kicked in... work two jobs and still broke, 2011 the US runs out of money... wow. that shit is wrong!
To those who don't already know, this Movie came out in 2003. I know Obama was going to become president, when I saw this movie for the first time and at the time Obama on the campain trail. I wonder if they planed this shit before hand. Even Brian Lewis (Republican Canidate) in the Film is striking in his similarity to John McCain.
@YoungOldWomen hollywood has had influence on world events for a long time..its scary to see how the great deciever can combine facts with fiction for capital gain...
Both Obama and ChrisRock are excellent actors but neither of them have any power regarding the policies that Americans are forced to endure by lobbied legislation written by global banking cartels
People are short-changed, sure, but most people will also be happy to defraud the system if they know that they can easily get away with it. He (Obama) is really just appealing to people's selfishness.
Well if sick people paid less for insurance then the insurance companies are going to go broke, and plenty of people will pretend to be sick so they can get cheaper insurance, and then the whole insurance market fails!
um....? Whites run the country for a what? 220 years. But have been here for 401 years, killing innocent native americans and stilling their home. And now that Black people have overcome all the odds and obstacles that the whites set out for them. And one becomes President of the united states for a day. and you are just now complaining about native americans. that makes no sense. That ain't right. Also, African Americans in America, are not african, most of them are more white than black.
hey dude what do you mean the african Americans are no more african?no matter how many years they lived in US they are still africans just like my ass even if thier mentality have entirely changed
I'm not talking about their mentality. If you are black then get tested.I am too, i look black and i am black but i am not african. My mother is fully black adn so is her parents but they come from a long line of white people. Just like my father is black adn so were his parents but the come from a line of indians. Most black people are mixed with so much stuff that they can barely be considered african! i am probably 20% african myself. But thats not fair to be called african when i so many-
OMG, this is the coolest thing I've heard from Obama yet. I mean, so far whenever I hear him speak, I think "he knows what he's talking about." This is the first time I've thought "that was cool!" I knew there would be parallels to Head Of State, but I never thought he would pull off a "that ain't right" speech. Awesome. Keep stickin' it to 'em, Barack.
Chris Rock is not a joke. He's a highly intelligent black man, actor, director, and the most prominent black comedian since Eddie Murphy. He had the foresight and wherewithal to accurately (if with a little exaggeration) depict what this country would go through if a Black man emerged as a contender for the Presidency, something President-Elect Obama indirectly acknowledged in that speech. So don't dismiss the signifigance.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Chris Rock's acts depends on crude, ignorant, racial stereotypes. In all of his acts he mentions white and black, and in every instance where he brings up race he alludes to yet another crude, ignorant, racial stereotype.
Chris Rock is a joke. Real people are far more complex than his portrayals of them are.
i sooo realized this when obama first decided to run that this would be so much like Head of State... Obama was just an organizer helping the common people, mccain was a war hero, obama has music videos for him, obama is now leading in the polls and has the masses campaigning for him... the similarities are endless, and hopefully it will end the same, with obama winning the election to become the first black president!
That ain't right!

There's a problem with the system.
All the ppl able to change that probably know this, but they've become so rich and wealthy that don't really care.
People are always saying how someone has to do this, or someone has to do that. It isn't someone's job, it's everyone's job.
The people need to rise up and change the system.

Isis is right. Obama repeated "That ain't right" after someone in the audience. Unfortunately, that doesn't stop it from being hilarious.
