Barack Obama: Town Hall Meeting in Bend, OR

[JakeRock12]

Mr. Obama says we must make sure "the White House is serious about enforcing some basic provisions...no child labor, no intimidating or harassing or arresting or killing union organizers" and we must promote "basic environmental standards" and safety standards, standards we should "insist upon from our trading partners". But he does not say what will happen if these standards are not met and how these standards will conserve US jobs. His answer is vague, albeit lengthy.

I have never voted for a president before because I never believed in any of them that ran. It is sooo refreshing to see a canidate who doesn't seem fake and one who can get out of behind the podium and talk to people like we are equals. I will be voting this year...this man will change this country...I truly believe that.

[SpamBanjo]

...or is he just a different coloured pawn in the NWO's endgame?!? Only time will tell... but I SERIOUSLY hope that you are right.

[braindeadhick]

Yeah . I agree. Obama is the real deal. McCain isn't going to pull it off . He simply can't . Obama has something we haven't seen is this country since FDR .

[dr1321]

all the losers and Obama-naysayers; if you've got a better idea..... why don't you run for president......what?

[rey2389]

i wish will be a president of us, this year i love obama ang i know u will be a great president,

[3swelldogs]

question for obama: I'm from the south and true what you say about illegal immigrants not taking jobs away from black americans, but their children do...how do you plan to attack this issue. I'm even seeing more and more children of illegal immigrants going to schools that were original meant for black people. please answer

[lioness54703]

He is a very smart guy. I found an item on google when he was campaining in Louisville, ky for the senate in 2006 and a Chris Rose interview and he is the "real deal". He has the same message then that he does now. He really impresses me as a man with alot of integrity.

[Princegto]

Yesterday a strong earthquake in China

I think that the States have sent humanitarian helps

I love you USA

Beautiful video a kiss

Bye

[404ErrorNotfound]

Well said Mr. Obama.

[EpicOfDay]

Amazing how he simply doesn't pander, doesn't respond with bumper-sticker slogans, but gives actual nuanced answers to complex questions.

And I'll agree with earlier posts... Obama is simply going to BRUTALIZE McCain in the debates, particularly on economic issues.

[philchacko]

Everyone in WV and Kentucky. Rise above and vote for our nominee. Don't fall into the trap of the clintons and think that whites cannot vote for Obama.

[kleinespel]

McCain is a hero and Obama will be a hero!

[laura8sule]

Obama's the best candidate in a very long time. Sometimes it is hard to see why not the majority of the people in the US don't see that he'll be the one to make the this country a better place nationally --and internationally. I so much hope he'll become president.

[okiebamaman]

OBAMA 2008 and Beyond!!

[sfu8414]

OBAMA 08/12!

[vatakemon]

Go Barack! Prove the doubters wrong.

[FalconX2000]

I have no idea how McCain is going to survive in a debate about the economy with Obama.

[Alphidius]

We would certainly like to see that debate!

[notarypublic]

the president of USA

[luigfresh]

Obama in 2008!!!

[TerryADunne]

What you going to change that is just a word.You took the word hope from Bill he was born in a little town called Hope.

[no1funkydiva]

I'm just sick to my stomache, that I could not get a ticket for this meeting! I wanted to be there so badly! =0(

[black212]

Obama 08!!!!

[ANGLEBOOT]

As always, he was asked a question and never answered. Beats around the bush about things people like to hear but never answers the question.

[AlexbyJC]

Mind explaining how he beat around the bush? Oh I see, if something isn't in short, simple words and more than two sentences it is beating around the bush. Gotcha.

[zacandcal911]

If he wins we're all screwed. HE is so fake.

[carolepyo]

OBAMA!!

[jayhawker53]

Barack Obama is not the next John Kennedy. He's the next George McGovern.

[kell4809]

Obama'08

[Foto1976]

that's the point i want to hear drilled home "SMART SPENDING"

[sethreeves1982]

We have to find a middle way economically and that is what Barack is preaching. I can't wait until he's president of our country!

[chrispollock]

hehe "questions" rather

[chrispollock]

this guy is great at answering questinos to the average american in simple language that everyone can understand. just another reason why he'll make an outstanding president. obama all the way!

[fatsheep10]

Makes sense to me.

[1withthesmash]

yea go obama

[firstclassreviews]

Go Obama!

[lwblack64]

Smart Goverment. He put it in proper context. One that can at least say the word 'Nuclear'. One that knows that Wall Street is not all there is to American business structure. One that is not financed by special interest and lobbyist for their benefit. We need an American made president; one with American core values and ideas; one who thinks about the little guy and small business owner AS WELL AS Wall Street. At this time and in this election, I have only seen one good mind at work. OBAMA '08!

[jayevans20]

We we can

[Franck9875]

G'Obama GO, G'Obama GO! Yeaaaaah !!!!!

[darius2222]

i love his new informal image. he is so handsome

[gamester58]

He is addressing some key issues that have been taboo in the recent past because of favoritism to big companies. They are making huge profits while Americans suffer with our jobs being shipped overseas under the disguise of "Globalization," when the real reason is to keep corporate profits climbing making Wall Street LOOK Good, when in reality many Americans are not doing well at all because they have lost jobs.

[bobinmass]

Real issues...and solutions from Obama. Not like the RepubliCANTs who choose gay-bashing and flag waving INSTEAD of real issues.

[gujubadboy]

A matter of few more weeks and Senator Barack Obama will be on his way to handing defeat to McCain and be the President of the United States of America

[sasazie]

s'moga apa yg km lakukan akan menjdi kenyataan,ini benar2 sungguh luar biasa dlm sejarah dunia,saya hanya bisa mengikuti perkembangannya,dan saya sangat senang dg kegigihan anda utk menjdi orang no 1,di amerika,good luck,obama,

[CallMeNiel]

K, I'll be a scientist.

[HyperVonVandalits]

Barack 2008! Only he can fix George Dubyah's mess. What's Hilary's problem? She should have left a long time ago.

[wolery72]

Yes we can!!!

[wolery72]

[sangReality]

[kawika8087]

Great vid!!! Obama is the best Presidential candidate ive seen in my lifetime.

Obama 08

[sskads]

Wow, I never thought I'd hear a mainstream candidate ever say these thing.

[janamills]

I'm worried about you, I am sure you will be a good president for America but I am afraid the rest of us will have to endure another 8 years of exploitation at the hands of the American government.

[brghtsd1]

thank you

[henrybesmer]

we're so close barackstars! the nomination is within reach!

obama '08!

[stevenstreet483]

I haven't been this inspired by anyone before. I feel like Obama wants to make this world a better place.

[evans4you]

Gotta love that man; he's the future.

[gvgnumber1]

So powerful

[rapidrainy]

He's really brilliant

[adv2k1]

It is so refreshing to hear a politician talk about a complex issue and not try to dumb it down or over simplify it. We need critical thinking in Washington and people who will surround themselves with the best people, not just people who will say yes mr. president thats a good idea.

[newyorkfish]

Only Obama can tell the truth and people will applaud because people are tired of Washington doing things their way.

Obama is NOT promising smaller government - he is promising smarter government.

This is were the change begins - with the smart decisions that our country desperately needs.

It's not good for our economy to have American jobs shipped overseas, so we need a leader to change that.

Our future depends on it !!

Obama '08

Yes we can !!

[Keszler]

Thank you Barack Obama are you going to come to South Dakota?!

[NappyChile]

Barack Obama .... Ty it is time 4 change

[NappyChile]

Change is sooooo overdue

[NappyChile]

It's time 4 ~ Change ~

[isaac523]

We need a smart president like Obama in the white house for a change... someone who really get's it. Obama 08'

[alimachloebff]

[denggina]

[videovitae]
