Barack Obama: A Change is Gonna Come

[SuperBlobsterMan]

It's just skin color.

Pointing out Obama's skin color serves to further segregate the races.

Racism won't stop until we are color blind to the tone of skin.

[gabrownsnoop]

what happened to the love for obama, he is a a man and a man only. you guys hold him accoutable for waaayyy to much, the change has come

[beverlycromwell]

obama isn't the first black president he bi-racial

[gabrownsnoop]

@beverlycromwell black is still a dominant color

[effik3]

he is indeed bi-racial... this is a difficult one...

he says he is black and his father was african so do we go by his wishes?

as far as i am concerned... his mother was white so he is half white, not black...

but then again he says....

man i dont know what to think!

[SHILOHDREAM]

tu tu tu sooo much 4 showing this video...u got me cryin' ova hea!!

[smokeyvelvet42]

This was definitely a hitoric moment in american history. We had grown men and women with tears flowing down their cheeks including myself I never thought I would experience in my life time this momentus occasion. I hear that song and see black men and their families standing with eyes raised to him, no words are necessary we sat in the living room parents, children, grandparents and huged each other they say a man isn't suppose to cry, I wasn't ashame to show my feelings. A change came !!

[mozfreak84]

for all the crap people say about the current politics, Obama's historic election transcends all these criticisms. History is being written!

[smokeyvelvet42]

Amen !!!!!!

[9meter]

May Allah bless Obama and is family when the road is rocky and may Allah be with him at all time. Allah will's it...

[planbrb]

yall need to quit wit all dem racial comments ur president is black so deal wit it and he gon get nanotha term believe dat shit he fixin dis bullshit bush gt us into!

[Jaypawfan1]

thank you! Someone agrees with me Planbrb! xD President Obama is our PRESIDENT people... he deserves RESPECT!

[WeDieYoung1083]

he deserves to be booted. Where was the respect that Bush was supposed to get? Oh wait, because obama is black that means it's different right? Fucking hypocrits.

[Jaypawfan1]

@WeDieYoung1083 Bush got enough respect that people didn't jump up while he was TALKING to shout "LIAR". That last little comment you made makes me very mad, so i'll part of you with something a little more mature. Obama is black, nice observation, but that's not THE reason he deserves respect. First, he over came racial HATE, and you call me hypocritical, and the only reason I really need to give you is that: HE'S THE PRESIDENT! Can I stress thi MORE????

[HighPitchEricc]

@WeDieYoung1083 you stupid yard dog. Take look at what the Republiklans have done to this country, open your eyes.Stop hating and just see for yourself! ITS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE!! THEY ARE NOT LOOKING OUT FOR YOU!! SEE IT!!!!!!!

[sox999]

i think i just threw up in my mouth, why in the hell would you ruin a great song with this garbage?

[xxShaunTexx]

@sox999 God bless you

[sox999]

Thanks, God bless you too.

[elcote1]

Obama y Cambio son dos antonimos.

¿Acaso el mal distingue de color de piel? es el presidente de el imperio , ¿ que va a hacer ? algo bueno¿ si se le ocurriera hacer el bien ( primero que no puede ) ya hay varios ejemplos de lo que le pasaria : Kennedy , Lincoln , etc...

Miren este documental y saquen sus propias conclusiones: Obama Deception.

P.D.: !!!Que hermosa canción!!!

[mixedgurl2009]

a black woman is the "1st lady and a blk man is the president of the u.s i mean the world... because u.s is the super power. i blk man is the 1st billionaire golfer.... i can keep going.... oprah,kobe,beyonce,michael jackson.venus and serena......

[eplafan]

Don't think I'd be braggin' just yet ... being as it took 230+ years to get a black president and, this black president and the golfer you're talking about are neither fully black. They're BOTH a mixture. Reserve all your touting and bragging for when you get a president that's not half white and a golfer that's not partially white and asian. Idiot!

[Readb4uvote]

To all the IDIOT/MORONS who voted for this loon ... you got your "change" ... how's it serving you thus far? Yeah, thought so! UGH!!!!!! Absolutely nauseates me to think we have so many persuadable, impressionable idiots in this country ... idiots who would put this bafoon in office. I'm not a GW Bush fan by any means but I think, before it's over, GW would be a welcomed "change"

[canibus504]

fuck u boy mccain old ass would be doing better right shut da fuck up and go back 2 ur hole

[Readb4uvote]

Learn how to speak (or type) ENGLISH ... you fuckin' GHETTO HOOD RAT! Mark it down, Obama, like sorry ass Jimmy Carter, will be a ONE TERM president. Every idiot who voted for this socialist LOON, should have their fuckin face slapped off. I say, idiots who voted for him deserve what they get ... but unfortunately, the rest of us are gonna have to suffer thru his socialist reconstruction of our (once) great country. Again, fuck off HOOD RAT!

[ACoe40]

Readb4uvote: It's nice to see that your name implies taking impartial views and having a holistic knowledge of candidates; however, I guess I was wrong because your negative, naive, and belittling attitude will unfortunately get you no where, and will continue to get you no where in life.

You are the racist scum that makes this nation too crippled to have any progress.

[Readb4uvote]

If you're so against this "crippled nation" ... go your fuckin' ass back to Endonesia and let this big-eared, dumbo-lookin', moron that scammed everyone with lies in order to get in the WHITE House, be your President and the President of all his relatives over there. No doubt, you're a far-left wing loon that supported this inept, worse than Jimmy Carter, one-termer, "President" ... and his classless, planet of the apes lookin' wife.

[Readb4uvote]

@ACoe40 - Never thought I'd see the day where this (once) great country was represented by a "Planet of the Apes" couple ... it's enough to make me want to vomit. Thank God Almighty he'll end up being a one-termer and replace Jimmy Carter as the worse President in modern history. I guess that's the only bright side. His poll numbers are dropping faster than a box of cinnamon buns going down Oprah's fat gullet!

[mickel1470]

You may not be a bush fan but you're just as ignorant as any of those tea baggers or even worse, any of the crazy far left radicals you seem to hate so much. I voted for this man not because I bought his talk but because he was the lesser of the two evils. You're either a troll or one of the tools jumping on the mr independent bandwagon along with the rest of the american apparel poster boys/girls. How about you just get back to your basement with your tin foil hats you conspiracy theorist?

[Ramble1212]

As Obama has sent drones to kill (since January) some 700 civilians, distinguished

liberals have rejoiced that America is once again a nation of moral ideals,

as Paul Krugman wrote in the New York Times. In Britain, the elite has long seen in exceptional America an enduring place for British influence, albeit as servitor or puppet. The pop historian

Tristram Hunt says America under Obama is a land where miracles happen.

[keddian]

I am getting goose pimples like crazy

[L03X]

u must love the little boy...I believe too u can! gr from Holland.

[deppgirl505]

this video made me cry

[olmo198]

shut up guys...is a black guy as president...this is the step forward!!!!!

God bless Obama

[KillaTones1]

All y'all hating on OBama for what cuz he just might do better then all the other white president we had in the past. you got some of y'all on here probably voted for him & then get on youtube just to talk shit, now thats sad but hey am proud that he's our president & you know what he can't destory America if america was already on its last legs so before u blame someone you should look at all the others prez we had in the past that abused it power is the reason why we are going thru this today

[hamiltoniiii]

i agree wit u

dey didnt beleve in dr.king but hey he was somtin great but u nno they had to kill because he was doin great and powerful things he had a dream and no it came true its obama

[IBERJEN]

So pathetic.......

[cod471]

l am white and as a person l love obama l think he is a real and good man but as president he is terrible and is going to ruin america but a least the blacks are happy but dont forget he is half white and besides his face he is more us then you!!

[omalebilesorro]

what the fuck are you talking about you retard!

[hamiltoniiii]

wow wow so racial comment not call for

[Vildahallon]

Has Obama make all those things he promised before getting president?

[mccue2]

Do undo in 6 months what the ship of fools did in 8 wasted years is very unrealistic.Talk to me in 2016 and then get ready for Hillary.A change is comin.. God bless Barack.

[belovers4ever]

a prophetic song written some 45yrs ago by an extraordinary legend with an assuredness in his spirit that america would indeed see "change". the kind of change that we were blessed to witness in january 2009. and wouldn't it have brought sam great joy to know that this classic piece of his was ironically "chosen" to be the theme of that monumental change...wow!!!!

[Sidey42]

Greetings from the UK, Fantastic video, does a good job of showing how adversity and good leadership will always bring a nation together.

Obama is a symbol for the world that racism will eventually become a thing of the past. Regardless of how his presidency pans out he's already made history.

Also its nice to see a Charasmatic leader at the forefront of international politics for a change ;-)

[pologeo17]

gay gay gay video obama is a piece of shit

[chocolite44]

like your daddy stop hatin

[lovegrams19]

That is so true! That's why I keep it as my favorite!

[Sonnyxleet]

abbsye7 = idiot.

great song. :)

[tterrajsirhc]

WHAT ARE U TALKIN ABOUT sTUPID INGNORANT PUNK

[abbsye7]

barack osama bin laden

[Vetdaughter27]

Proud American , my race (Don't Matter)!!

[lynette711983]

lord have mercy..we as americans have come a long way.. we have to stay united adn keep the dream alive...yes we can will soon be YES WE DID

[Lucksadon]

stay positive my peoples and yes a change will come like it has already GOD bless you all

[victocejua]

Barris Obamis.

[elciddaddy]

2:37 THIS

[youretheshit187]

CAN I KICK IT? hehe

[Ortibobs]

The fact people compare Obama to a great man like MLK is a, frankly, an insult.

All the sheep will see in 10 years that he is just another politician, bought and paid for. Chosen my the corporate leaders and bankers to be a 'fitting' candidate, the same as McCain was, and Bush was, and Gore was, and Clinton was.

The only change is going to be the zebra pattern on the drapes in the white house and the refrigerators full of grape soda.

[DATFLAWDANI99A]

Dude that was such a racist comment...

[KewiiziiB]

idk think that ppl are COMPARING...i think they're showing the transition of the two and how MLK'S dream became more than true....

hopefully that's not what ppl are doing....barack is a good man but MLK was way more....

[tennysonfootball]

They are showing the realization of MLK's dream. That a man be judged not by the color of his skin but the content of his character! You get that?

[Hallaatmeiight]

That was so racist ! idh grape juice in my house or zebra drapes bt my WHITE friend does so i hope you stop preachin stuff you dont know and MLK's dream came true people said yes to him even though he's african american!

[brandonstewart1220]

u hope, not we are going to see but u hope

[JBroflobsession]

this is so beautiful. and that news reporter said obamer

[poopstreek]

Obama supports the ILLEGAL Patriot Act. Obama supports bailing out Wall St. with money that they are going to loan back to us with interest. Obama supports empire building and policing the world. Obama supports open borders, all of this JUST LIKE BUSH!!! Everything else is TRIVIAL. The ONLY difference between McCain and Obama is which half of dumbass American voters think they got their way.

[sugarbabiesdaddy]

man shut up...every one man isnt the same..dont be sayin just like Bush you dont know ANYTHING about Barack Obama..

[poopstreek]

He has the same corporate owners as all the rest. This much should be obvious by now, look at how much money he has given those greedy bankers since he has been in. Wake up man, he is not going to change anything.

[sugarbabiesdaddy]

dont get it twisted ..that money was distributed by the Bush administration who never checked/ followed up where the money was headed..obama was just left to clean it up...you know how much shit obama is gonna have to fix and sacrifice because of Bush's mishaps.

[poopstreek]

Obama has given more money to Wall St. than Bush, already. What mishaps are you talking about specifically? Because Obama is making all the same mistakes.

[KayNyne13]

best tribute on Obama i've seen so far.

[ucagurl]

This is so....beautiful. Just beautiful! God bless America:-)

[beautifulnightmare9]

Obama 08

[thisshithere]

[tyylit]

a shame to use this song in politics

[SharinkaiKIdd]

i agree, such a beuatiful song

[DYWAN89]

Yes you people got change coming alright so help me god

[dragon6409]

this is america nothing changes status quo

[TheodoreTB7]

hey angelofdeath90890 dont think negative

[angelofdeath90890]

It's not negativity, it's reality. Nobody can solve a recession that has built up over all these years in only a few, no matter how much they promise. Obama might HELP, but it's not going to end.

[TheodoreTB7]

now that I think about it you couldn't be more right, there's no way he can live up to all the expectations that people think he will, but he'll try hmm

[longwanghung]

I'm a whitey, but I'm some proud about the first black president.! Put goose bumps on your arms.

[austin9687]

AMEN!

[ayyo19]

from 2:37-2:51.....WOW!!...u can do whatever you want and be whatever you want to be my brother!!

[wb1044]

Speechless!

[Horrowfilmfan]

Hey I could see a change already, ITS GETTING WORSE EVERYDAY! They are already on food lines in Florida! Barack

has his home, his money and his future and all the poor American that pay tax, well who cares about us ? NEXT STOP, A DEPRESSION!

[kramerspadowskiki]

my fav song is pride in te name of love by u2 its about mlk jr great song

[angelofdeath90890]

I don't think that anybody realizes that just because Obama is elected, he's not going to fix this within his 4 years. There's no way that's happening. I hope that he can make it BETTER, there's no way that it's going to be fixed.

[bwalk187]

very nice video..i will never forget the emotion that overcame me on that fateful night..finally an end to an eroor!!

[universeplayground]

this is so sad....some of us think obama is a good wholesome leader who has changed the gov. ......amazing and sad

[retchro]

he started off normally and rose to the top, he wasn't born with a silver spoon in his mouth and he still did it

[MRLMedic]

That child's emotions @ 2:38 puts tears in my eyes... it really says it all.

[Liberal2245]

Ok we see clearly its a new era a new gerneration of youing people who want to live together regardless of what color you are Now us black people need to stop and look at President Obamas past He had hare times but he didnt make excuses for not having a father He went to school and became intelligent Thats the way to a better life education Also loving and respecting all cultures Lets move forward as one !

[vmiddleton1127]

That young man made me cry. He was so ovecome with emotion. We love you President Obama!!!!!

[Mopperd]

This is so touching !!!! Thanx so much for posting!!!

[dal4018]

Somewhere the leaders from the 60's are smiling right now.

[zoeydebra]

That little boy just killed me and you feel it too!

[MESSIAHEQUIANO]

2:37-2:50 has to be the REALEST Clip I have ever seen in my life. To see that little boy overcome with emotion in knowing that he can do whatever he wants is the most inspiring and heartfelt thing I have ever seen. I have watched this clip 3x's now, and each time I do, I start crying...Thanks for posting!

[quao77]

yeah that boy shook tears out of my hear! I wanted him to finish that fucking sentence I couldn't even think about when i was he's age!

But my kids can say it now " I can do anything!"

[manofsteeeele1022]

anything is possible. OBAMA!

[mrcwags1]

god bless you obama

[jenma309]

[george6900]

[lovegrams19]

A Change Has Come to Everyone! Peace!

[dawgerzzz]

america needs to be healed, and i know for a fact that he is and will mend the wounds that have hurt us deeply.... this video is beautiful... i am proud and just speechless that i am living in this time... the feeling of not being just a regular people, but as ONE... yes after 9/11 we had this feeling of being one... but that was only for a little while and then it went back to thinking of ourselves... but president obama... this change will last forever

[edElud]

Great video, great job. :)
