[ShineHunter]

Oh he's going to be flamed (below)

[ShineHunter]

Vote for Obama.

Vote for the devil, he who has to show his kids soul to make it look like he has one to.

Vote for a new world order, making the USA more a Nazi counrty than ever.

Vote for the lie.

Vote because you know no better.

Vote for love of mankind then you won't vote for Obama.

[WanderingDervish007]

OMG, how did you come up with all that by watching this video? You're a nut who's obviously got racists issues. You're also the type of person who hears one thing and twists is around and comes up with something completely different. Look at where our country is at now. Bush and the Republicans have shown us what they're interested in and it's not about caring for the American people unless you're an oil company or some other wealthy enterprise. Open your eyes and look at reality.

[noliarz]

ShineHunter: oh my fucking god you are so fulol of shit. you are pure bullshit. fuck yourself in the face and DIE.

[ShineHunter]

Truth hurts.

I'm not racist wanderingdervish007, where did you get that impression?

Noliarz you will kill me for Obama, again a Nazi USA.

Where's the love.

Starting getting our troops out and oh straight in to Iran.

BBC news was showing Obama from day one but did not show anyone else, Which tells me that he was going to be the one the elite had picked to win, it was now in there minds to convince you and look just like lemmings you obeyed.

Wake up.

[noliarz]

shine: truth is always a pleasure to hear. you are wrong on that point. what hurts is being busted for lying or just having selfish intentions. i'm intent on keeping fuckign mccain out of office and i would vote for obama even if he was actually GODDAM SATAN in order to reach that end. mccain is pure belligerent bullshit seeking nuclear codes. dont let that motherfucker have those.

i'm awake. you can eat shit and die for implying otherwise. lemmings are gr8 with CATSUP.

try making me obey.

[noliarz]

ShineHunter: and that's another thing: you would allow those codes to go to that moronic lying bimbo upon that cancerous old fuck's death? are you in some kind of dream or hallucinating? sure hope your alarm is set EARLY.

[noliarz]

ShineHunter: why would anyone mark this as spam? it's just obvious (useless). shine's not too bright but let's let his statements be seen by all!

[ShineHunter]

??????????? confused!

It's not marked as spam.

Enjoy your new dictator.

[noliarz]

i feel gr8! you lost! thanks for all your help, moron!

[ShineHunter]

Lol I didn't lose, I was saying the same thing about McCain. There all evil like you.

Also I pointed out that It didn't matter who you voted for, obama was already a pointed be the elite to win. Who's the moron now lol and the moron who has to live with him/her-self.

[kirkslastbid]

This Is What Happens When Black Fathers Leave The Home And Don't Teach There Kid How To Shoot A Basketball !!! They Turn Into Politicians !!!

[NeimanWilliams]

and comments like this are the product of extreme ignorance and idiocy.

[tr1980ey]

LOL awesome

[noliarz]

kirkslastbid: YOU SHOULD EAT MY SHIT AND FUCK YOURSELF IN THE FACE, SHITFORBRAINS.

Naughty girl just want to get kinky

[sbnettv22]

woo ucsb

[PanavisionLove]

its at sbcc, not ucsb. just so you know, but yea UCSB!

[Deucenupe]

classic7890 you assessment of who pays most of the taxes is totally out of bounds. Everyone knows the rich are only taxed more in the sense of total amount due to the fact that their yearly income is they more money than anyone else makes, however, proportionally those earning <100,000 a year are being taxed more.YO!

[classic7890]

Communist Manifesto Plank Number 2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

[payhomage]

What the hell are you talkin about ... graduate DEEZ NUTS!

[vanji611]

Universal Health Care means healthy people who exercise, eat a healthy diet and don't abuse their bodies end up subsidizing fat people who smoke and drink beer and sit in front of the TV all the time.

That's what is great about socialism (what Obama advocates), we all get to be miserable together.

[sizzlakalonji7]

No, actually it means revamping a broken, inefficient system that gives an incentive for costs to skyrocket and quality of care to plummet, and thats already costing more than in any other industrialized country. And no, he doesn't advocate socialism.

[vanji611]

If he isn't advocating socialism, then why do I have to pay higher taxes to pay for universal health care? Why can't I opt out of it and not be a part of it? I get great health care coverage through my employer.

It's the same scam as Social Security and Americans are falling for it all over again.

[sizzlakalonji7]

You dont have to pay higher taxes under Obamas plan. He wants to create a national insurance plan to compete with private insurers, and you can opt out of it. In terms of employer provided insurance, he just wants to bring premiums down by making the system more efficient. Its not "socialized medicine", its a public-private partnership designed to benefit everybody.

[mercedes75]

I can't get over how beautiful Santa Barbara is. Hey at least Obama is consistant. Unlike Hillary, he didn't vote in favor of the war so yes, he is more convincing when he says he's against the war.

[Paulutube83]

We have the best healthcare in the world, whos he kidding. What a phoney, and another staged fake fainting obamagasm pleeezzzeeeee

[mercedes75]

Actually health care needs some patch work. He's doing better with this concept than Hillary is.

[Boysya]

I thing any government run health care system sucks. I would rather prefer to have better education system so people could educate themselves and could afford to pay for their own health benefits. Working women get paid the same as man??? Hell if they work as hard as man then they do, but because your MH doesn't mean shit.

[mami4747]

ı was there at cıty college fuckn'bored:P but ı lıked hımmm

[AS5kickenmnky]

i was there i was so borin but im a suppoter of obama

[vgamerfive]

People like who, who say things about not voting fro someone based on their name, make me sick to my stomach about our future, if they still decide who gonna be president based on names alone. Even is it was a very poor attempt at a joke.

[ClickMe2c]

I am African American. If Barack Obama or John Edwards doesn't not win, then I will vote for Ron Paul.

[rwe1]

- Those 30,000 troops calmed down the Anbar (sp?) Provence, the most dangerous area of Iraq.

- Although you didn't hear it in the main-stream-media, the factions of the Iraq government did agree on some major issues just a few weeks ago.

[talktal]

it actually just calmed it down to pre 2006 levels. it's still as violent as it was in 2005.

[rwe1]

- Our healthcare system isn't broken. It's the greatest in the world.

- We don't melt the icecaps. The sun does that.

- That's funny, Ted Kennedy wrote "No Child Left Behind".

- If he's so concerned about education, what legislation has he introduced to improve it? Oh yea, none.

- Our reputation is run into the ground by him and other Dems.

[alyceclover]

rwe1: why not go visit his Senate website to find out? I like the video tapping of police intergations; not forcing war Vets to pay for their own meals at VA hospitals (hey go get your legs blown off for your country and pay for your own breakfast, eh); voter fraud prevention. You must have affordable healthcare. Many do not.

[rwe1]

#1 find out what?

#2 I believe that if you put on a uniform for your country, you should get anything you need.

#3 I don't have any health insurance, partly because my current for doesn't offer it and partly because I've got other things to spend my money on right now. And NO, I don't want "Obamanation" dictating to me that I have to go get it until I'm ready to do so!

[rwe1]

My current JOB, that is. (Bad typing)

[chrome19141]

"And NO, I don't want "Obamanation" dictating to me that I have to go get it until I'm ready to do so!"

rwe1:

Obama's healthcare plan does not call for a mandate, so you wouldn't have to get anything that you don't want. He just wants to make healthcare affordable for everone who wants its.

[talktal]

-our reputation is based on other countries opinion about us, not republicans in this country. since bush has taken office, the us has 0 crediablity.

-president bush uses "no child left behind" as a slogan, if you haven't noticed. one he doesn't really endorse.

-the ice caps are melting not because of the sun, but because the heat which is trapped by carbon emissions.

[rwe1]

#1 The media just wants you to think that, sorry you've fallen for it.

#2 He would be smart to not endorse it. And we need to get rid of Carter's mistake (one of many) called the Dept. of Education.

#3  You are simply wrong. Studies have shown carbon levels rise AFTER the temp goes up, not the other way around.

[classic7890]

The "ice caps" are not melting. both are growing. CO2 accounts for only 3% og the GH effect. Water vapor accounts for the vast majority. And since CO2 has gone up 4% the last decade mean global temperatures has gone down or flat lined. Ergo, the + runaway feedback loop theory is false. Beyond that Big Lie, where specifically in the Constitution does it say "...and health care for all." ? Finally, Poor people don`t pay taxes.The top 50% of Wage Earners Pay 96.03% of Income Taxes

[bootme21]

A message from our founding fathers...

"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

[krugar67]

How the fuck can anyone vote for someone whose name rhymes with Osama?

(besides Oprah Bin Ladin)

[neema79on]

Your screen name is Krugar?????????? that tells alot...are you on parole?

[MelissaJenna]

Hahaha! Oprah doesn't rhyme with Osama OR Obama! Like, not even close! Alliterative, maybe, but rhyme it is not, my friend.

[krugar67]

What I meant,Melissa, was that only Oprah would vote for Obama.

And thank you for having a sense of humour.

[ClickMe2c]

BUSH-CLINTON-BUSH-CLINTON would be insane.

[TheTristMan]

yes and none of the 1st 3 should have ever been placed in office and of course Hillary shouldn't be placed in office either. Romney would sell you out to the farced terrorism movement instigated and funded by conspiring men to prepare for legislation that takes our freedoms away like the patriot act.

[Biberboot]

poetry slam!

[Camelot15mill]

does anyone know if Barack will be questioning Petraeus in the senate today???

[texanleons]

This guy is pitiful, using his mother's death for political gain, oh well, he doesn't stand a chance, even with oprah..too bad.he sounds like he's got all the answers..

[Larryk12308]

Please knock off the RP comments.

Save them 4 yr own channels

Meanwhile i hear Barack snagged a former Carter adviser and he's making his OWN Iraq report on Wednesday

[plumpdad]

I am one of the 47 million people without health insurance. I don't have health insurance because I don't qualify, not because I can't afford it. I am self-employed, but I am also over-weight. This combination means I don't qualify, for even the crappiest insurance. If Obama can fix the health insurance issues he has my vote. BTW: I am working on getting fit so I can get insurance.

[texanleons]

I have insurance, cause I work for a living, I don't want to pay for your's too, sorry.

[plumpdad]

70% of all American businesses are businesses which have less than three employees. That accounts for 27 million people, who have to acquire insurance on their own. 30% of Americans are over weight. That comes out to 10 million Americans who are self-employed and over weight and not eligible for health insurance. Us self-employed make a combined 800 billion and pay 15% in employment taxes. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET INSURANCE BUT I KEEP GETTING DENIED. WHAT KIND OF SYSTEM IS THAT.

[progeny77]

so you're saying the insurance companies can refuse you health insurance because they're not going to make enough money from you and there is no other option?

Given that the US is a developed country, I find that quite shocking.

[plumpdad]

progeny77 - Yes that is exactly what I am saying. You would think, I would be able to pay more than normal for a health insurance plan, but Nope, I continue to get denied. The system is broken and needs to changed.

[MelissaJenna]

Dude, I don't have insurance and I work for a living. And I go to school full time. And I volunteer at least 15 hours per week for several different causes. I'm a productive and upwardly-mobile member of society who is already giving-back to her community. I WANT to pay for health insurance through work, but it's not available to me. Wtf is up with that!?

[EchelonMonitor]

One way or the other you will pay for it when the uninsured use the emergency room, and it will cost you more than if insurance was universal.

Our annual cost per capita, $4,662.00, is nearly double that of health care in other countries.

In 2002, more than 18,000 deaths among Americans have been blamed on lack of insurance and proper health care.

[DCxxRay]

get off your ass, hit the gym, and stop bitchin'

[plumpdad]

I agree DCxxRay, and if you took the time to visit my channel, you would have noticed that my #1 goal is to lose enough weight to get health insurance. I also think that if someone wants to pay for insurance they should be able to. Even if they do charge me twice what a healthy fit person would pay.

What happens to my family if something terrible happens to me. That is not something I would want to put my family through.

[AngelBones84]

ugg..he is SO full of shit . Seriously if that man gets president , Im moving to another country . Im not typically a racist person . But a black man for president doesnt sit well with me , and I have my reasons .

[studnothin]

if i fund your plane ticket, can you make that a promise?

[AngelBones84]

sweeti , I have plenty of my own money to do so , thankyou ..

[pwrgawd]

Key word is TYPICALLY. So... my advice to you: Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.

[AngelBones84]

my ass , how funny you mention it , because you are welcome to kiss it . Believe what you want , but he can make all the promises in the world , and once he gets the ''power'' they will all disappear , just like every other politician on the planet . Not to mention that this country already caters to the ''minorities'' and a man who is one of them in control is not a good idea .

[TheQueenofSnow]

I'm going to be 18 on November 27, :( but I would be voting for him.

[Fallenvirtue]

"Who're we gonna nuke Barack?" said Mike Gravel.

"We're not gonna nuke anyone...right now." said Barack Obama.

[izzy9985]

Thanks Melissa for posting the Obama speech. I just watched the first 4 segments you posted, and he's really incredible. Even with all his domestic experience, though, I worry about his optimism regarding the Iraq war, and whether he can really make a difference there (not that any of the other candidates stand a much better chance, I guess). Anyway, like I said, thanks.

[sasbabeuk]

I'm in the uk and wouldn't have seen this speech if it wasn't for melissa. This guy is so charasmatic that I wish that I could vote for him.

[siouxsienova]

You need only look at his bio to know that he has gobs of experience (including 8 YEARS w/ the Illinois state Senate), is well-educated (Columbia and Harvard, just like FDR!), and is committed to making America the best that it can be. OBAMA '08!!

[MelissaJenna]

I love the last segment of Barack's speech from Santa Barbara: "Fire it up! Ready to go!" Obama for America! :)

[crazyforfood]

vote ron paul in 08

[timer999o]

am from the uk, i do follow the usa politics very closely, obama is a good talker, he know what the people want, i would love to see you guys having someone like that, with his opinions, barack obama for president i not think he go choice of winning. i put my money on Hillary Clinton and Rudolph Giuliani to win. i was watching fox news Republican Debate 3 day ago Giuliani was amazing,

[crazyforfood]

good sir i do belive you mean ron paul kicked ass

[petralemoisson]

Obama for president 08!!!

Go Barack! This country need you !!!!

[litterit]

He plans to reform education by simply getting and paying more teachers. All of these politicians have been out of High School for too long to realize it isn't the teachers; it's the students. They don't want to learn. The govt. forces these children to go to school, but they can't force them to perform well on the tests that measure the pass/fail criteria for schools.

[Mkundera]

Barack is a flash in the pan. Who knew who he was 24 months ago? We should never elevate such a newcomer to our highest office.

[bb87tf]

A newcomer like Abraham Lincoln?

[Mkundera]

A fair example but still, Lincoln had been on the national stage much longer than Obama. Plus, need one ask, do we really think Obama has the talent of a Lincoln?

[bb87tf]

Really? Lincoln got national attention because of his debates with Douglas in 1858. He won the presidency two years later. And how do you know how much talent Obama has? Maybe he seems to have the same amount of talent that Lincoln seemed to have when he was elected...

[Mkundera]

Lincoln was actually on the national scene by 1854 though of course he was most prominent during the debates in 1858 as you said. Obama may well be as talented as Lincoln, though, alas he is not running against Lincoln.:) Against the men and women he his running against he has a pretty thin record and has done a lot more talking than doing.

[dashtheartist]

Barry-HO for pres mutha fukkas!

[RuiFranciscoVieira]

vote Ron Paul
