  • go to google in the images section and type obama lincoln and look at the pictures below

  • I don't believe Lincoln ever used a Teleprompter...HUH?

  • If people here have so much time and energy to debate/argue about Obama and Lincoln, might as well channel those energy and time into something constructive, such as submitting your suggestions to the White House on how to effectively address the country's current woes. Everybody can be an armchair critic, since it doesn't cost any effort or money to be one. And Obama is not the first black US president. He's half black, half white and some past presidents had african ancestry,eg.Lincoln.

  • Hey Sand47, For your info, I am college educated.& I am definitley related and proud of it. Obama is a fraud. My ancestors were here before George Washington and fought in every war, including the AM Revolution, War of 1812, Civil War ( both sides), WW I & II, Korean, Vietnam, and both Gulf Wars. I am aproud member of DAR and my heritage. You are just an Obama Zombie. Too stupid to see what is happening to this country. WAKE UP!!!!!! Quit being fooled and led away by the PIED PIPER.

  • What an insult! I am related to Lincoln through the Hanks line. Obama is NO lincoln.

  • Your lineage is so far removed from Lincoln that it doesn't even count. Your comment is asinine and silly If our President admires Lincoln and chooses to pattern himself to the same or similar philosophies, then who are you or I to tell him that he can't? Particularly based on the fact that you apparently know nothing about Lincoln, and therefore have no claim to fame.

  • You need to do your homework! Look up Sophia and Dennis hanks along with the name Lynch. I am a proud member of DAR and my heritage!

  • just like obama lincoln loved to give taxpayer money to private industry, especially the railroads that employed him as a blood-sucking lawyer.

    the modern representation of lincoln is a fictional character dreamed up by the historical revisionist of imperial usa.

  • Comment removed

  • FAWNING.

  • THNAKS 4 POSTING THIS! i needed it 4 skool

  • OMG! Refresh the nation?! A soda company trying to be egalitarian! Pepsi Co. is one the world's largest international corporations. Has had a history of exploiting the third world for profit particularly in Central America. Kids don't swallow this crap, "Refresh America". Mr. Obama if you want to "refresh America" get rid of the corporate influence, such as PepsiCo, in American politics

  • Lincoln was a white Republican that freed the slaves so that they could prosper, Obama is a Black Democrat that will give the nignogs more handouts, and make them even more sorry.

  • This is stupid. Lincoln supported slavery and did not even free slaves in the south till the middle of the Civil War when things looked shaky for the north.

    Obama might be like Jefferson some, a prolific writer, but Lincoln?

    No.

  • i was amazed niggers woke up and were able to get to the voting places to vote while still in their crack addicted states. blacks believe obama will give them free cars and houses and tvs and shit. fucking dumb niggers. watch my nigger hating videos

  • obama has never been a lawyer.

  • John McCain didn't lose the election, America did.

  • CBS News DOUBLE standard deleting all comments against this Video how Biased....towards something in their intrest..still GOD BLESS YOU ALL....and know that truth is always truth...!!!!

  • Obama is a joke and the joke is on us!!

  • "If I could save the Union ,without freeing any slaves I would do it."-----Abraham Lincoln

  • "If I could save the Union ,without freeing any slaves I would do it."-----Abraham Lincoln

    He also said if he could save the union and get rid of slavery he would.

    Lincoln and Obama are politicians. Nothing but pendulums that swing left and right when certain conditions are true.

  • Allow the president to invade a neighboring nation, whenever he shall deem it necessary to repel an invasion, and you allow him to do so whenever he may choose to say he deems it necessary for such a purpose - and you allow him to make war at pleasure. (Lincoln) This is exactly what has been going wrong with our country and watch obama continue it.

  • Lincoln was a tool of the Banks, Big business and Bigger Government, so is Obama. Lincoln killed 600,000 Americans and the Constitution. I doubt Obama can top that!

  • Why don't you look up the greenback dollor and rethink your statement.

  • Obama voted not to give medical aid to aborted babies who survive the abortion...just to let them lie on the cold stainless steel tray and die. Want to guess as to how Lincoln would have voted ?

  • It's President Obama yeahhhhhh

    God Bless him, yeahhhhhh

  • i was amazed niggers woke up and were able to get to the voting places to vote while still in their crack addicted states. blacks believe obama will give them free cars and houses and tvs and shit. fucking dumb niggers. watch my nigger hating videos

  • We need to stop acting like Obama is the greatest president ever when he isn't even in office yet. The far-left, liberal media needs to be stopped.

  • I don't see how going to school with student loans isn't humble. Everyone knows he just got done paying off those loans not paid for by his grandparents. Even so my grandfather was the only worker in the home he worked in a steel mill and he put back 50k in or me to goto college its just budgeting he also put 50k back for my older brother. My aunt is a single mom teacher her husband had my cousin and ran off no child support she sent my cousin to private school and the state university.

  • This is ridiculous

  • Interesting. Lincoln has always been an interesting political figure. Will see if Obama is really like him.

  • Lincoln has more in common with Bush than Obama. Lincoln would have left slavery in place to preserve the union. Lincoln also suspended habeus corpus and locked up newspaper editors and state lawmakers for years without trials to support his war effort. Lincoln would have opened up more Gitmo's, not shut any down.

  • Yep!

  • I agree that he isn't a great president left but bush doesn't have any similarities to Lincoln. What about the war in Texas Lincoln was against at the time a very popular war also look at how Obama like Lincoln was far liberal but is moving to the center (don't rock the boat) open your eyes give him a chance if he sucks i promise i'll vote against him come 2012 but it seems that he has the best potential out of any candidate since Reagan. (although he couldn't be further in policy)

  • Obama is not a centrist. He is a far-left liberal and he's gonna change everything.  Even things that don't need changing.

  • force obama to wear a shirt with the US flag on it.its like forcing dracula to wear a garlic necklace.obamas weasely excuse:it gives me neckrash wearing t shirts so i wont wear it!

  • Both held elected office in Illinois and that's about the extent of any comparison.

  • Both skinny and tall and homosexual.

  • WoW Lincoln was actually 20% african american?

  • Would Lincoln close Gitmo?HELL NO

  • How the f!ck would you know?

  • The other thing they forgot: Lincoln and Obama also shared heritages. Lincoln's mother was Ethiopian. Lincoln was actually one of five black presidents prior to Obama.

  • Lincoln's mother, Nancy Hanks born in Hampshire County, Virginia was not Ethiopian.

  • sspsllc- You may be right about Lincoln being black, I'm not sure. I've read online that they tested his DNA and it showed west African descent. Also, some question about whether his father was his blood father. Possibly Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln, Harding, Coolidge Eisenhower were all of black ancestry. Clinton tried to take the honor of first black president, but that may have been by culture only.

  • I'll bet you "John Cheese" can't name the Canadian Prime Minister, (President, for you retards), without Googling it....

  • Obama and Lincoln... Both secretly gay.

  • How humble of Obama to be willing to compare himself to Abraham Lincoln even before his presidency started! This is so refreshing! Of course, the real Abraham Lincoln worked his way from being dirt poor, and was not supported night and day by a propagandistic news media, or by the corrupt party machine in Illinois. The real Abraham Lincoln was the ultimate example of rugged individualism, and a captain of freedom among all men.

  • Bullshit its funny how the right wing is accusing everyone of everything they have done in the past decade just because Obama won. I got news for you Obama won because people are fuckin sick of conservative bullshit. Obama said he want's to copy Lincoln and why not he also wants to copy FDR and Kennedy will he do it successfully or not is the question. And out of all presidents Obama did come from rather humble beginnings unlike Bush or McCain who got were they are because of daddy.

  • I have to laugh at your hypocrisy. You chastise Bush and McCain, while FDR and Kennedy were both from wealthy political families.

  • Obama did not come from humble beginnings. His wealthy grandparents sent him to private schools and then Columbia and Harvard. How is that humble.

  • I was thinking the same thing. How can you compare the two men? Obama has not proven anything. He has only shown an ability to get elected with the help of a biased media and corrupt political machine. He has faced no real challenges as president.

  • Both of these in this Video I will say are guilty of something they cant get out of till they DIE comparing people My GOD...If i was there i will slap the shit out of them..lolz...get over it...wait you will see the outcome..!!!..GOD BLESS AMERICA...!!!

  • Interesting prospective - Gene

  • Obviously Bush or even McCain is so much better you people are so blinded by either the party or liberal vs. conservative or his fuckin name that you can't see how much potential he has. we tried small government long enough lets see were we are compared to a decade ago looks like crap to me. i got news for you if the government wasn't helping people then it would be another depression and people would be starving because people like you are too selfish to help others.

  • wow isn't this a load of crap

  • obama dosnt deserve to be compared to lincon.damn librals tryin to make obama seem like the savior for the US. this is bs

  • Amen to that man, amen to that.

    Glad to see I'm not the only one who sees it that way :).

  • good point

  • Yeah

    Good point

  • SheepHerder12 gets my vote.

  • No.

    Lincoln is my favorite president, because of what he DID, not just where he came from, what he was before he was President.

    Obama hasn't done ONE THING besides rally a bunch of kool-aid chugging sheep under a crisis. He hasn't improved it, it's gotten worse since he's been elected, and I doubt he's going to do much to improve on it.

    Don't compare Obama to anything but dirt until he's gotten into office and DONE something. Even then he can't even compare to Lincoln, no one can...

  • because obama hasnt even taken office yet, how do you expect him to be as great as lincoln at this point if hes not even the president yet.

  • Exactly, granted, I doubt Obama will be as successful a president ad the media fortells, but I honestly hope he doesn't fail, if he does I'll be right, but I'll suffer under it.

    If he does do good, then compare him, however, even when he becomes president you shouldn't compare him. After 4-8 years, when he's done what he's done, when he can be fully evaluated, then we should judge him and compare him.

    Until then, he's really just another president, nothing more nothing less...
