[wonderv8]

[TonyaTko]

[comfysox1981]

Thanks for posting these videos. Can I use for teaching the kids at school?

[kdTV2Lvr]

California Results:

Clinton 52%

Obama 42%

I don't think Obama was expecting to lose!

[nickmackone]

What idiots like this Obama guy? He is no good for this country unless you dont pay taxes because the Government doesnt know your here or you a lazy piece of shit and want to live off of welfare. There are so many African Americans and Mexican Americans that have never voted before. But now they want to vote because this guy might hand out free stuff.

[AIPkhmara]

right on dude +1

[whatmatt3rs]

Awesome speech.

[zodih4x]

He didn't talk about one issue... How was it awesome?

[skwhatever]

sounds like a cult leader. it is creepy

[zodih4x]

Hey your right1!!!

[jaubrey543]

Cult of personality.

[bostonkalloway]

NOW HOW THE HELL DO U GET "CULT" FROM POSITIVE THINKING???... you my friend are actually working for the negative persona' that is hillary clinton's machine. Your fucking mind is so wicked and corrupted by privious B.S. that usual dirty politics feed us that you can't even recognized a good candidate when u see one.

[skwhatever]

get lost you loser. Ask those who were running after hitler.

[brianthunder33]

It's a shame how such an idiot can get a so large consensus. I college he was one of the laziest student ever seen and he was heavily on drugs. He is a shitty communist muslim. He has also a very corrupted past. He talks about change and he doesn't propose anything. He lacks of skills and education. Whoever votes for him is not a real American.

[fojeba]

You should better wonder if that "idiot" is not Yourself.If writing 2 best sellers books,being elected senator in Illinois is du to LAZINESS or i'll like to become Lazy.Bill clinton has admited he did drugs and "did not like it" ,what was the impact of that on his administration?

[Smith1238]

oha, you seem to be an expert..

[thesquonkstear]

Search "Mena Arkansas" or "Clinton Chronicles" and try not to puke about Hillary's "experience".

The Clintons did not deliver- the just learned to streach out payments. Why did the "education president" leave America's kids going postal and shooting up their schools.

There again, Bill was busy getting being "the first black president" in his mind.

[freedomsadvocate07]

YES,

WE

CAN

INVADE

PAKISTAN: watch?v=uIum0o-_LZk

[stealth63]

I think it's funny when people site the supposed lack of experience. He's a sitting US senator, not a burger flipper. And as for more "experienced" candidates... like Bush? How'd that work out for ya? This is our chance to get some new ideas in Washington. Let's shake it up! Lets have a smart president that we can be proud of, instead of another political hack.

[testgoodantiv]

I want him to be vice-pres 1st. I'm terrified that inexperience could harm progress. If he wins this one there's a good chance a republican will take the next term. Remember people there are more Bush as governors. If he's vice pres then he'll be service for 16 years. 1st at vice-pres then he'll have 8 years as pres.

Thank About it.

[PhatalOne]

thought about it and can't agree with you. JFK was also known as an unexperienced president yet he is one of the most admired presidents. How much experience did Bush have? Look at our country now.

[Kildragoth]

Um, Hillary lost almost every poll agaist McCain and Obama beat McCain in all but like two polls out of at least about 75 polls taken. He also beat Romney in every poll. Her experience has shown that she was for the war while Obama's so called inexperience made him against the war from the beginning. Hillary still stands by her vote authorizing the war. She has not said it was a mistake. With the way she has disrespected Obama through her campaign I don't see why I should ever vote for her.

[lrlbox21]

Obama is a "ZERO"

[emeka1978]

To the Obama generation, if you get cursed on, dont bother and just dont curse back. We are better than that. That is the true sign, that something is happening in this world

[emeka1978]

Politic should be about caring for people instead of scoring

points in debates, interviews and all the entertainment that surrounds it. And that is exactly what has been the focus for years, like

Barack says,we do have "a moral deficit, an empathy deficit".

[emeka1978]

A briefing cannot replace a real life experience.

Most people in washington live in their own world, have never seen the struggle of millions

of poeple first hand. They believe that they know what is happening in the world just because they watch it on tv, or get briefed about it. The time has come for a new direction. Politic is not a game. its not about reciting some policies, because anybody

in their right mind can do it.

[schlagerhansi]

can WHAT?

time for WHAT?

change to WHAT?

[southerncheyenne]

The race for the Dem. nomination is still on. I can only hope that Hillary will win the Democratic nomination. I honestly hate to say this, but if Obama wins. Then I will for the first time since I turned 18, vote for a Republican. Mr. Obama, open your eyes, let us know how your going to go about your plans, a good speech has not bought me, you say "yes we can" I wonder "Can you?" The race isn't over, I suggest you work on trying to win the lower WORKING class and not just the poor class.

[southerncheyenne]

I said that whoever wins the Dem. nomination I will stand behind. Obama speaks well, however this speech said nothing to me. I will say this first. I am not a racist. I'm full-blooded Cheyenne native. About 1/4 of my relatives are half african american. This speech seemed to me that all he was speaking to was the African-American population. Look around Barack, theres more to the middle lower class then just African-Americans.

[fireskin12]

i don't see what you are saying. he's very inspiring to all of us. if you aren't going to vote democratic just stay home, mccain is a tyrant.

[PhatalOne]

i think the poster is talking out of their rear. Look at his supporters. Their are black,white,asian,latina,etc. He speaks to all races and all generations. It's not his fault blacks,white men, young voters, young women voters support him. Just like it's not hillary fault that OLD women, latinos,white women tend to vote for Hillary.

[atik04]

What has he accomplished? great speaker though.

[Yalekid]

Dude, he's just a good public speaker. I don't see how's that gonna help America. Honestly. Oh god, and his gospel of change.. plz, change doesn't come b/c he is simply black. Politics is bogus.

[ibmgrunt]

But will he accept the number 2 spot on the Dems ticket if Queen Hillary pulls off the win??? Hope we don't have to see that happen... Go Obama

[PhatalOne]

well that's the only way Hillary can win. It's evident that she would need him more than he would need her.

[kamforty]

It is sad to say that some of you people are the sad results of just how screwed up that this country has become. You believe in nothing.... I feel sorry for you all.

[jennanov77]

I agree with hofffan87.

[Hofffan87]

Mark my words, if Obama doesn't get the nod I will NOT support Hillary. You may see that as lack of unity, but the reality is she's that polarizing. I think after all the dirty tactics brought on by the Clintons just for their thirst for more power, it would be morally wrong for me to vote for that witch and her husband. I'll write in Mickey Mouse before I sell my soul to the Clintons.

[PhatalOne]

what's side is that complete idiots who spill lies vote count as much as the educated people of the world.

[PhatalOne]

*sad

[WadeBlazingame34]

The main force driving Hillary's campaign is "ambition". It's about her. She cries every Monday before an election not bc she feels your pain, but bc she might not win. She is Tracy Flick. /watch?v=rleUPHX8yfM

[pamagroup1]

if obama is not nominated i dont think hillary will handle well pressure from republican.mccain will offload a load of shit on hillary.hey she cant even give bill some head

[pamagroup1]

ur mama ass is a negro lipshit

[pamagroup1]

irlbox21 ur comment reflects ur character .obama is educated and a politician.wat has mccain done expcept to be a POW.Obama 7 hillary arenot only successful people but great people as well.he is a senator by the way

[lrlbox21]

Your in UK. Mind your own damn business. Your women will all be wearing burkahs soon because of your peacemaker liberal ways since Blair left.

[pamagroup1]

your comments are just cheap tok sense retard

[lrlbox21]

Obama, what the hell has he ever done to be in this position ? The answer is NOTHING. How long before he leaves his wife for Oprah ?

Empty suit has no plan.

[pamagroup1]

i think obama wld change america for thebest.hillary is fake & obama is smarter

[camshaff]

A Vote for Hillary/Obama is a vote for:

1. A Welfare State: Demoncratic spending programs cost trillions more than government receives

2. Killing Children: Democrats 1 litmus test for Supreme Court Justices = Support killing unborn children--defenseless people all should protect

3. Converting Iraq into a national base for Al Queada

4. Taxing Industry into being forced to relocate to China

5. Amnesty for illegals including: Social Security, Drivers licenses, healthcare, education, Welfare

[pmhinton]

wow thats already being done now by Bush .. pay attention what has your party done for you lately

[missdivinestalls]

It's gonna be a sugar free day baby. You're gonna live in a castle! I am totally kidding, I love Obama.

[kamforty]

This is about this countries' survival, not race. Some people love to keep hate and division going. It is up to us as Americans and human beings to say NO MORE!! Nothing will change with the same people saying the same old things and things are getting worse and worse for America.People are tired. People want a change and if Obama can bring it, more power to him!

[fmyfmyfmy]

I can see it so clearly.... OBAMA phenomenon is catching and the "other" candidate/s are feeling the heat..... Let them feel it..... It's not just Obama, IT IS A MOVEMENT..... A MOVEMENT of Change of getting rid off the old B.S. is Washington.... WE NEED NEW PPL and Faces... OBAMA I am ready to go all the way.... WE are behind you 100%

[cinnamonstar808]

ROMNEY OR OBAMA! they others are just bullshit.

[JwKENT85]

OMG I want to hug him. This speech is amazing. It seriously makes me literally happy. I smiled the whole speech.

[pmhinton]

i want him to win so i continue to hear these very good speeches they make me want to go out there in do positive things in this world . truly inspirational i know i wouldn't have followed this election at all if he wasn't in it and if he drops out I'm out because.. my underdog would have been defeated.. my interest in politics will be defeated.. and hope for true change will be also.I'm sold

Obama 08

[mrmafiosso]

OBAMA VICTORY SPEECH WHOOOO

FIRED UP

[historywillabsolve]

A B C ... Anybody But Clinton... lol

[Kookimon]

that is exactly why I wil NOT ever vote for hillary, because she uses mud and shit just like you marilyn897. People like you are a cancer to real political involvement for people who want to know what candidates are for, not "they did this, they ate babies! he is black! he is muslim omg!!!!" and shit like that.

[snarkwaupaca]

Kookimon: Right ON! These tactics make her less appealing to me than McCain(if he would get rid of his war mongering ways).

[chuffy49]

The world needs this guy to win, not just America!

[conflagrated]

YES WE CAN

end the Clinton lies

YES WE CAN

end the Clinton corruption

YES WE CAN

end the Clinton dynasty

WE LOVE BARACK IN NYC!

[jhtrico1850]

Hillary for 2008. Obama hasn't done anything.

[Reggaeleiche]

We are the ones, we´ve been waiting for!!! That´s it!!! Vote Obama!!!

[iamtheteacher90]

OBAMA LOST!!! Change, change, change, "yes we can" so, tell me what does all this empty rhetoric say? People you need to wake up and use your God given intelligence in the voting process and not your gullible emotions.

[theEdge1983]

god doesn't exist! obama for president!

[snarkwaupaca]

Don't know about the god god thing but I know that I trust somebody that chose community organizing over a seat on the Walmart board.

[iamtheteacher90]

Typical for someone who is an Obama supporter.

[gallomex13]

the fact that you still believe in a God is stupid enough, I'll rather believe in change and smart leaders than fake and sellouts like Hillary.

[Hofffan87]

iamtheteacher90 maybe if YOU used what God gave you you'd do some research about the beloved Clintons, if you're supporting them. They are right up there with the Bushes as extreme corrupt goons who don't care about you just your vote to get power. I don't like wishing bad things on people but since we're talking about the corrupt past and present of these witches I hope Hillary suffers a terrible loss if she gets the nod.

[iamtheteacher90]

Evidently you are an ignorant person.

[RicoStar89]

he is awesome

[jy2k98]

CHANGE? PATHETIC that's what it is... was that why he WELCOMED TED KENNEDY and JOHN KERRY's endorsement, because they embody change... ALL TALK that's what it is...

[EastAtlantaboy]

Thanks for supporting the next president.

[gallomex13]

Fuck you if you dont believe in the future at least dont get in the way 'cause we the people are coming strong, this movement is so fucking strong even Republicans have taken phrases from Obama's speeches to use on their own, that should fucking tell you how good this guy is.

[jhtrico1850]

Tell me about the future and this "change" he'll bring!

[gallomex13]

You want me to go to your house and feed you too??

grow the fuck up! listen to his speeches look at his record, see his policies. And then you will understand.

[barb99999]

jhtrico1850:  it'd be enough for me if he merely restored the rule of law, gave us back habeus corpus..., prevented torture in the name of the USA.... that'd be a good start.

[Hofffan87]

jhtrico1850, go look it up. I guess there's a reason Obama's supporters according to polls are more educated, they actually research. You can mock the "change" all you want, but if you decide to stay in your uncomfort zone and vote for the same garbage you deserve every pessimistic bill passed to personally effect you.

[Gilliatt83]

We We We.. so what?

[nespromise2]

Obama is still in the race. The next round he has a money advantage.  This may result in more 1 on 1 debates, since Hillary won't be able to compete financially. As Carl Bernstein of CNN said "It's hard to run against a movement"

[westphalianprinz]

I agree with you, but I have one caution. He's running against the Democratic machine. He won states that don't have democratic machinery. Look at the map, if the state has a democratic presence locally for more than 5 or 6 years, then Clinton does better. It's because the Clintons have control over the local machinery.

[rcd1234567]

to think that we might miss this chance to change the course of this country. to change the course of history. is more than disappointing. it is devastating.

[newsweekrocks]

By the outcome of this primary, Americans once and for all showed that they have absolutely no interest in change. They knew what each candidate stand on the issues, their personalities, their messages and of course their backgrounds yet they chose to say Fuck You to the rest of the world and continue to live with their pathetic miserable lives. Are you people really happy with all that is going on in your country? Do you really think Hillary is going to change anything?

How disappointing.

[Ediamond1]

Newsweekrocks, I agree. Nominating hillary would be like going back in time to live amongst the dinosaurs. When is THAT ever a good idea?

[IncredibleGoliath]

Obama won by 4 delegates.

[democratbut]

Btw.. We all know the Democrats are gonna win this year.... we can celebrate now... Idiot republicans voted for old school Mcain..., YAY!! Surefire win for us Democrats... BTW, we need to ease up on "Full Medical coverage" What about the daredevils with a ton of broken bones each year? What about families who want to have more than 3-4 children? There should be degrees of coverage... Cancer n' stuff we never saw coming? That shit should be covered, though.

[lrlbox21]

Everyone thoght the Patriots would win too. Your heads up your democratic ass.

[theEdge1983]

Obama for president! USA goverend nearly 20 years by only two families (bush & clinton) it's time for a "change". this country needs new impulses. and i can see only one man who can to that!

[democratbut]

"Retubetard" I agree!!  He, in my opinion, has better ideas, but, can his words ever come to fruition? Clinton has more ability, I think, in that department. I still love Obama, though.. But his ability to deal with the mess in Iraq? I dunno...

[cinnamonstar808]

Veracifier WOW! THAT WAS FAST

[WadeBlazingame34]

New Obama08 message needs to be: "Connect immediately with Latino, Asian and ethnic communities..." I don't know why there's such a disconnect, but it's time for those groups to also get on this train!! We're bound for a new day folks, get on board!

[snarkwaupaca]

WadeBlazinggame34: You are right but that means we need to engage them and let them know that this revolution can be their revolution. That the changes Obama will make will help them more than 8 more years of partisan bickering under HRC.

[Retubetard]

I would vote for him rather than Hillary - but - when comes the time of endorsing full responsabilities as President, dealing with huge Corporations, international leaders and laws on critical subjects, the power line "Yes we can" wont work. He is good at being loved by the average people.

Ill wait to see his "next level" true capabilities.

[snarkwaupaca]

you are right but if you followin his international relations groups you see that he is willing to pull together really sharp folks and give them the ability to speak the truth and base is actions on them. If you can't do that you get, well the last 8 years.....

[sennapods]

"We are the ones we've been waiting for."

Wow. What a poignant one-liner. What a slogan for a campaign based on consolidating ordinary Americans to change America.

[DamNationDiplomat]

Hillary will almost certainly lose if she's nominated. The republicans are just waiting to unleash the mass of sludge they have to throw at her. Obama may have snorted coke, he may have smoked some weed, but he doesn't have reels of fox smere tapes waiting to rip him to pieces, and, i'll bet money, that swing voters will go for McCain over Hillary any day. CURSES!!! People refuse to vote in a way that would actually benefit them. Damn you silly people! Wasn't Kerry a stupid enough decision!?

[MMS747]

The Republicans have already unleashed masses of sludge against Hillary, and have been doing so on a daily basis for the last 16 years. There is nothing more they have to say that we haven't already heard. (This is not an endorsement of Hillary, but simple fact.)

[DamNationDiplomat]

I bet they're saving the big guns for if and when she gets nominated. Rove works for Fox officially now, and he's a sly bastard, too sly to waste his trumps on primary season.

[WadeBlazingame34]

Agreed. Her lobbyist ties, Bill's business ties, and, of course, Bill's "personal life" since January 20th, 2001 will all come into question and dragged out in public. It will be a nasty campaign that debases us all.

[IncredibleGoliath]

There's Bill's recent deal with the unelected leader of Kazachstan just to start. But the main point to realise is that the Republicans don't need new scandels - they just need to remind everyone about the old ones. A nomination of Hillary would be a disaster both for Democratic chances of a landslide victory, and for the overall unity of the country.

[LastExyle]

I love how the crowd started chanting at the end as he was trying to finish his speech. The guy doesn't even know how charismatic he is.

[notscooter952]

He's a darn good speaker. Good for him.

[badgrammar]

i gave him another $250 after i heard this.

[3rdeye47]

what a frikkin rockstar!!! he wins on pure rocstar appeal.

[senorboyero]

He's not as vague as people who think he is.

[nkashi]

shit

[ShinsengumiTaicho1]

Why is he never specific? Would it have killed him to say something like, "we are getting out of Iraq!" or "we are ending the lobbyists' reign over Washington!"

I'm want meat, issues, and passionate stances. Why do we settle for empty words?

[xoshkoshjoshx]

if you want specifics, go to his website or watch the debates.

this is a frickin victory speech. does he really need to get specific in a victory speech?

[ShinsengumiTaicho1]

Victory speech? Fair enough,I guess.

Questions for Obama fans:

Why didn't he co-sponsor the "Restoring the Constitution Act of 2007" that would have given us back Habeas Corpus? Why hasn't he promised us back our rights?

Furthermore, despite numerous legal analysts saying that there is a substantial case against Bush/Cheney, why is it that Obama is against impeachment? Does he not recognize an abuse of power when he sees one? Does he not oppose the breaking of law by the presidential office?

[snarkwaupaca]

He is a constitutional scholar and taught it at U of Chicago, I suspect he has forgot more about upholding the constitution than we will ever know.

[dollaresque]

Obama said many times now that Habeas Corpus has to be restored and will be restored under his administration. In Illinois, he passed statewide ban on racial profiling and worked on state civil right issues. So given a real chance, he will give us back our rights.

As far as impeachment, no good chance of that happening, and to try it will further divide the country into red & blue states - and isn't this exactly what Obama wants to avoid doing. All of us on the left must be realistic about this

[ShinsengumiTaicho1]

1. I applaud him for his work in his state, but still, why not support the bill?

2. How is impeachment a dividing issue? There is a substantial case against the presidential office and last I checked, Bush's approval numbers were incredibly low. Despite numbers not telling us too much, the fact remains, thousands have died for a lie and no one is being held accountable. I don't know about you but this boils my blood. I want action on this issue 5 years ago and so does everyone I talk to.

[IncredibleGoliath]

Crazy as it seems, Bush's numbers are still high amoung registered Republicans. So a serious attempt to impeach him, even if it were legally possible, would completely destroy the consensus Obama is trying to build.

[ShinsengumiTaicho1]

It is we, the people, who have let the Washington power game be established by only sponsoring two parties. This lack of competition is the reason senators can't support bills due to back room politicking. I, for one, am sick of this game and all who play it. Mike Gravel was the one man in the race who didn't play that game, ever, and down he went. This is why I am so distraught.

[barb99999]

ShinsengumiTaicho1: He is specific. he's BEEN specific. Are you listening? His speeches are public: you can find the specifics

IF you really care.

Go online.

Or go to Public TV.

I'm thinking that you don't actually care or you'd already know.

[ShinsengumiTaicho1]

No, I'll look into it, and I did excuse the fact that it was a victory speech in my second comment.

However, I would still like answers to my questions.
