Obama and McCain Trade Jokes at Charity Dinner

[hightillidie69]

He look just like Dr. evil!!

[MrRyguy92]

i like mccain as a person but obama is leading this country pretty well i honestly think his approval rating would have plumetted if he didnt accomplish the mission of killing bin laden

[scott71785]

@MrRyguy92 Really? :( wow.... I just dont see how 9.1% unemployment and housing prices collapsing again and all that is good... I really think America needs to look in a different direction in 2012. Never know though, things could change in the next year.

[beernan06]

you my friend are an idiot!

[scott71785]

@beernan06 Oh yes. I'm the idiot because I think 9.1% unemployment is bad.

Grow up. Realize your President is a moron. Realize your mistake... Don't make the same mistake again.

Sounds to me like you are the idiot.

[scott71785]

@beernan06 Oh yeah. Great response. How about you take off your liberal glasses so you can see clearly.

How about you actually look at where our country is at right now and try to find something positive.

[MrRyguy92]

@scott71785 im not saying those things are good im just addressing that part of theres obviously a huge mess that will take a long time to clean up a mess that the 1st george bush created that clinton didnt touch then w followed his dads footsteps didnt touch Obama is actually the only one trying to clean it up its gunna take more then 8 yrs for him !

[Sappa9702]

lol his first name is hussein...."Sadam Hussein" Obama is priceless

[MALIRIPPA]

Good times good times

[RobMonty248]

Obama is Osama...

watch?v=w53TMpk6QNc

[pandafatxXx]

Mccain liked this video at 3:18

[KILLZSR]

Who would think these dudes had some good sense of humor lmao xD

[LilSpyroDragon]

mccain was a lot funnier lol

[Hulburd4Arizona2010]

I like Obama's smile. Shows how HUMAN he is compared to...oh well...you know... W-

[da1ved]

This is how they should debate in the senate and congress.

Tell the truth with humour.

[haydedan]

It's nice to see that they can abandon the cruel world of politics (if only for one evening) and be light-hearted and jovial with one another

[denniandrew2002]

@haydedan it's all a show, regardless. Just like watching Pro-wrestling.

[LadeOnline]

obama killed mccain on this jokes lol

[shamailababy786]

obama bin laden is a deciever cunning kaafir

[SonOfGod3000]

@shamailababy786 Kaafir....south african for nigger right? But i thought niggers we're only decendants of slaves? Obama was never a slave? Can you be a little more direct with your racism next time? Sincerely a decendant of slaves....

[coreygames]

Well played McCain... well played.

[AFGadmin]

they r so cute ops how i say that

[gaffigantootie]

Can you guys just enjoy the video? These guys are no Richard Pryor or Eddie Murphy, but dammit seeing this kind of light hearted fun from senators lets me know I/we don't have to take everything so damn seriously. Way to go McCain and Obama. Both of you are a much better choice then the former president.

[aristotle1900]

john macCan i think the u s a peoples lost you because you are the best suitable president for this country . but they choose this foolish black Obama . bullshit

[mrbeanaswell]

get a brain

[austrailianpirate]

no, I do beleive that dieselmangt is the idiot!

[jasjat]

thats good stuff

[cumonin99]

lvduggo69---your a fuckin idiot!

[DJAnthonyillWill]

Good Stuff! I liked how Barack poked fun at his middle name, Hussein.

[dieselmangt]

Obama is a socialist. He plays the nation with his words... never quite lying.... only not speaking the full truth.

Vote ANYONE but Obama in 2012

[Karpify]

He is not socialist. The right-wings are throwing lots of words around comparing Obama's administration to the Third Reich, socialism, etc... Not true. There is a big difference between a public *option* and socialism..

[joenathanable]

He is not a socialist. He is a border line

communist.

[Karpify]

@joenathanable

Ha. Good one, old chap!

[ohgrx]

and George W. was a Fascist..

[RedJoe187]

@joenathanable

and you are borderline retarded if you actually believe that.

[Bloodshotbuddah]

I would take Obama over any of the republican jackasses speaking bullshit these days. They just complain every day and scream liar

[kboss2011]

even though I thought mccain was horrible at public speaking, I think he was a lot funnier than Obama at this

[getahamsterhamsrule]

yall know hes half black, half white!

[twoencore]

no he is black on the right side, and white on th left side...we have to get beyond this or we will destroy ourselves.

[Lvduggo69]

I love how black peeps say we have a black president now it will all be better now but yalll forget he's only half black. And half white which half is better ??? NEITHER. !!! Ps go America we all live here let's atleast come together for our country !!!! :)

[BoredomTown]

This is STILL funny

[NorseRonin]

lol, that's true man :]

[aliassi]

Think this is funny? Check out Big Nazi Throws A Little Black Boy............LMAO

[dropturdsonyou]

@aliassi WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!

[IROCK4367]

WHO IS JOE THE PLUMBER ANYWAY?!?!?!

[IROCK4367]

-I like pie. you like pie too?

These are seven great words spoken by Obama that I say on a daily basis ALL HAIL PIE

[iaya97]

Mccain is way better

[iamashooter]

u mean Mccain's speech writer is way better

[roccoscarrino]

McCain waz alot better than obama,i hate obama sooo much!! fuck obama!!

[Jaiyeson]

lol hate him all you want. He is still your president bitch lmao!!!

[Runow]

It doesn't matter if you are republican or democrat, you have to admit both were hilarious!

[ohedd]

you mean their speech writers are funny?

[iamashooter]

OOOOOOOOOOOHHHH.... hahahah good one

[killafunkuk]

Mccain got pwnd!

[legolasisthebest]

I gotta say, I am glad that at this point they each poked fun at their opponent, and at themselves.

[aTypicalWhitePerson]

I wonder who would be President If Barack Obama was White, and John McCain was Black,

[zyphanus]

If John McCain were Black, he'd be Colin Powell. If Obama were White, he'd lose to Hillary. This election was decided in the Democratic primary.

[Thejbirdy]

None of these two guys fit in their tuxes....now that tells you something.

[Killer0000000001]

"I got my middle name from someone who obviously didn't think I'd ever run for president." LOL @ OBAMA.

[buckodcelt]

this is a fucken disgrace you people are stupid

[Sykovckrew1]

that last about the senate was pretty good.

[hermansyah58]

haha!!

nice 1...

George Bush..

LOL....

[asdfjkl562766]

ookkk???

[CptCool2]

Well said Mary

[RavenX08]

Ah, man, that's how the parties should be in America. I just wish people were better sports.

[tybo09]

It's nice to see them cutting up in the middle of what (between their supporters, anyway) was a pretty nasty campaign.

The die-hards of most parties are too self-absorbed to ever be like this. :(

[edthespartan]

Both McCain and Obama have tremendous senses of humor, and I think both of them relished the chance to use humor to inject some civility into the campaign. This exchange really reinvigorated my faith in our system. W and Gore or W and Kerry could never have pulled this off.

[cory918]

yeah because gore is a stiff. george bush is hilarious

[Zay209]

I liked McCain's last joke setting up Obama the best

[AXEL4522]

:p lol

[6235115]

someone want to chat

energetic fun smart and loves this video 99

[abettertitum]

obama in ur mouth

[FriendsFanforLIFE]

Geez I love that its HILARIOUS!

[mattriddle1985]

wow your a fuckin idiot good job on doing your reasearch on obama and "white folks". did you drop out of school in the 3rd grade to have your first kid? because your spelling is shitasstastic. bravo you ignorant simple minded tard.

[PrettiGurl88]

Itz mostly WHITE talkin about obama dey really dont know wat da fuk dey talkin bout. must of yall dumb ass white folkz voted 4 bush. he didnt do USA no good so dey need 2 shut da fuk up n give a black men a chance. White folkz r so selfish all da presidents was white so now we got a black man he cant b no worst than bush.Give black people a chance yall white folkz jus try 2 take everything.but FUCK YALL WE RUN DIS BITCH!GET OVA IT!!! U HATIN ASS WHITE FOLKZ. OBAMA 09

[GoldenSilence333]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHA Are you really as ignorant as you sound?

[thomaski]

HAHAHAHHAHAA

[laurent4221]

You do really he is white too, his mom was white and his dad was black :P.

[tatigoz]

That is true but in america if your more than 30% black your considered black still, black genes r twice as dominant when it comes to producing. Notice hes considered 1st african american president despite the white. Also hardly no blacks in america are full black these days, slavery was long ago, the main full blacks are mostly in africa.. most blacks in usa have white n them but therye considered black because white is white, its appropiate 2call him black it would b incorrect 2call him white

[tatigoz]

also since his dad was pure african black instead of african american black, he has more black than the average bi-racial black in america because most black people in america have some white mixed in them already due to slavery over the years, and since black is such a strong race it would be pretty much incorrect to consider him white even if he was 75% white, that just how it is, hes still considered the 1st african american president (black)

[jax90291]

hahaha i love obama and all but... this is a little racist

[eskater44]

why did u vote for obama? because he wants to make marjuana legal, wow ur really smart

[FTR01]

Do you mean to tell me that you only voted for Obama because he is part black? That my friend is being ignorant. Just because he is black, it does not mean he will necessarily be a better president. I would implore that in the future you use less slang when you are discussing politics, and put forth a more legitimate argument on why americans should vote for Obama.

[DrWebflaxFLOO]

Somewhere, Al Sharpton is crying.

[missfashunoitall]

LOLOLOL Why? LMAO

[DrWebflaxFLOO]

Because PrettiGurl just set the Civil Rights movement back forty years.

[chevryder]

the whole world is in a recession but democrats have to blame somebody so who better than bush? i mean since he runs the world and everything. 75% of the things obama said were just to get your vote, and that's it. now that he's elected he's going to do what he wants. jus wait about a year and we'll all be at our local salvation army's with food stamps in hand getting breakfast. just accept it cuz it's going to happen. GET TO KNOW WHO YOUR VOTING FOR AND WHAT HE STANDS FOR BEFORE YOU VOTE!

[chevryder]

haha people sayin' they love obama. read his autobiography he wrote in '95 and then tell me you love 'em. anyone who's smart knows that obama lied damn near 90% of the debates and speeches he was a part of. he said whatever he had to to get elected. y do you think his whole campaign was about 'Change,' he wants to change america from how it was to how he wants it to be. Smart people also know that recessions happen, they've happened before and they'll happen again.

[wavycrockett420]

no matter what you say it cant change what happened....i bet you voted with all the other losers too

[hottygirl87]

i love obama i am sooo gald he won!

[itz0517]

OBAMA 08!!

i dont understand who in their

rite minds would vote for mccain ?

[chevryder]

people who don't want higher taxes. white people with jobs who don't want to support lazy jobless niggers. people who really know obama and what he really stands for unlike you. half the country doesn't know the real obama, y do you think now that hes president republicans are shitting themselves, cuz they know obama was bull shit. HE ran two years in the senate that's it, he is not qualified for the job. start saving your foodstamps now.

[wavycrockett420]

lol racists like you used to make me mad...now you guys are like a dying breed saying your last words....a total joke that doesnt reflect America anymore

[FTR01]

Though aside from all that racist bull shit he has a point. America does not need all these social programs at a time of recession (which is only going to raise taxes), people need money in there pockets to stimulate the economy.

[xDCRooneyx]

fail.

[Jeremy1281988]

Go Obama!!!

[doblecara888]

mi voto a mccain por que obama es un socialista

[Haakndo]

dudes with brain, vote Mccain

if you are like a lama, vote Obama

[knoxled]

that was gay dude..lama..?

[MrsAmerica011]

hell ya

[spice121]

OBAMA 08

[Mrlrvin]

I dont wan't Obama in office, but thats not right to call him that. o_O until he doe ssomething currently to make him that bad i wont treat him as a bad person hes just as human as us.

[MrsAmerica011]

i agree but i mean i REALLY dont want him in office but its not right to anyone

[DCaple0013]

do they always do this

[hicksam]

McCain-Palin 08!!

[ButtcheekAlex]

YYYEEEAAAAHHHH

Baracka Obama VS Johnny McCain

MORTAL KOMBAT Fight on my channel!!! 00:01

[Xikaze]

Hah, whoever writes McCain's jokes should run for president.

It's nice that both of them have a sense of humor.

[hackingstupid]

mccain 08

[minacrazy17]

OBAMA/BIDEN 'O8 !!!!

[HackRL]

Wow ||Scully|| , I'm not a huge fan of Americans either, however you give the rest of us a bad name. Please stop being alive. Thank you.

[wshene23]

lol thats great

[SxeanFTW]

HHAHAHAHA IISCULLYII you're hilarious. You tell us we're dumb, yet you describe us as "fats dumb" roflmao noob

[k0rnh0l10]

politics are just an illusion we all created. if expanding mankind juxtaposed to other nations, we are going to harvest a divided system.

[lm2168]

sense you make...

[IISCULLYII]

whoever wins your country will still be full of fats dumb americans. thank you

[gmesa86]

Its easy to be jealous of a country that every other country aspires to be. For that reason I don't blame you.

[IISCULLYII]

actually you are the most hated country in the world and im from england a much greater country than america

[AsSomedayItMayHappen]

These guys have good writers working for them =D That was funny!

[Michthemitch]

OBAMA/BIDEN 'O8 !!!!

[sammynash2k8]

gthrhtrhr

[Kromeotube]

Search "The Dolphin vs. Sarah Palin: who is smarter?"

Have your say!

[est981]

If elected Obama will be guided and directed like a puppet by the three buffoons(Pelosi, Reid, Dean), and will dismantle what is left of our nation's identity and soul.

[johannesburg99]

will lose

[theandy4ever]

those jokes sux...

[doublstix11]

I thought both were funny. And I'm not going to endorse either here, because what this video is about to me is that both these guys are people like us and can laugh and have a good time. It wasn't suppose to be about who was funnier, it wasn't suppose to be a contest. It was just a night of laughs and it's good to see that both these candidates can make and take jokes equally. No matter who you choose to vote for, just get out there and vote. Every voice counts. God bless America.

[zagro2000]

One thing I like about America is that all presidents gotta have a sense of humour. The people would not want it otherwise. That's a nice trait.

[REGWHY]

MCAIN IS 1000 YRS OLD

[hottygirl87]

not really he is 72

and he his 7 children!

[aitraining]

"Just prepare yourself for non stop hilarity" lol. That was funny.

[aitraining]

The Al Smith dinners are always great. Check out the 2000 one with Bush and Gore. They were funny. GWB was very funny actually. C-Span politics site has it I think and all the others.

[sargetech]

Want more of the same!!!!

Vote for McCain!!!!

Want to stop all the Drama!!!

Vote for Obama!!

OBAMA/BIDEN'08....STOP THE HATE!!!!

NO JOKE INTENDED!!!!

[123emily567]

if u cant laugh at both sides of this, you need a better sense of humor. lmao.

[wavetothefuture]

THIS IS GREAT!

Why can't the campaign be like this?

Both guys (gasp!) seem like friendly, funny compatriots.

[wtfroman]

McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN McCAIN

[dunka12]

awesome....and McCain was so funny,....i didn't knew he could.

I'm pro Omaba, but i have to give it to McCain...unexpected.

[syecapsys]

Sara & Todd Palin Equal TERRORIST!!! McCain campaign did not know that both Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and her husband Todd Palin were long-time members of the Alaska Independence Party which promotes Alaska seceding as one of the United States and becoming it's own country! Research Todd Palins true feelings about this country.

[ttalker99]

McCain looks like a fucking turtle without a shell. And what is up with all the winking and blinking.

[viedeejo]

These jokes were written down by other people.

It looks relaxed. But what happens if jokes are not funny, not working? Dinners like this can be tricky and more dangerous than work. This tension, which both men feel, creates an even better ground for humor.Nice psychology.

America will need some humor ahead for sure.

Better to laugh than to cry over things.

[Lovepuffs]

Obama does love him some tranny (mike) with their two adopted chillens

[ladybludevil08]

lulz

[soularimus]

Good to have a laugh.

Nice one McCain and Obama.

[PersonalJesus348]

Obama's stuff on here was killer. The one they show on AOL is biased towards McCain. Curious, and Curiouser.

[kellbert90]

good on them

its nice to see they can laugh at themselves

but please america vote obama, for the rest of us in the world.

[kingdancekiller]

It's good to see that it's not all vicious campaigning.

[wilsonlittle1985]

very funny. But yall should still vote Obama. I already did. Thank you

[wing554]

Its nice seeing something like this from the two after all the other political agression that has been going on

[bigboss25262]

LOL, if you don't sense political aggression in this video, i don't know what is.....

[kaitoyama]

Ha ha, I liked both candidates' approaches. McCain was hilarious with his deadpan delivery, and Obama was as well with his occasional laughter after his jokes.

[mickfizz]

john was killin it ,obama proves he's a self absorbed whiner

[ricgoosens]

they didn't even right any of it, obama maybe, but not mccain. stupid writers

[crazycucker]

John McCain sickens me. He has destroyed so many peoples' lives, and if he is elected, he will destroy many more. I can't laugh at that. Please don't vote for him.

[c0171]

Obama '08

[finch150]

This is pretty awesome, light-hearted and very informal.

[spankey20032000]

vote for obama...for..... president

[Petrolhead1984]

Both schould stick to comedy

[bjoker2421]

Vote:Obama/Biden 08!!!!

[az09f45]

McCain was really funny, maybe he should stick with comedy instead of running for president.

[az09f45]

McCain was really funny maybe he should stick with comedy instead of running for president.

[jusmart]

Funniest Obama line they didn't show was something like: FOX news accused me of raising two African-American children IN wedlock!! (Side Note, funniest YouTube addition is the "Audio Preview" for morons)

[BARproductions3]

I'm pulling for McCain but i like to see each candidate having a little fun :) GREAT VID

[minzyeliza]

this is the bipartisanship we need in washington right now...forget about taking sides, and remember to smile!!!

[D3g1532]

This is more of what I like to see. Peace has been very rare during this election.

[xbixbi]

McCain did a great job with the truth!

[xbixbi]

khany1388

You stupid! Samuel Joseph goes by his middle name, Joe.

Why don't you watch the interview before you Obamaize it. Get the FACTS you idiot.

[gracelandheightz]

Awesome!

[Musicians4Obama]

A powerful alternative message that can make the conservative mind's substance moving? If it says what's in your heart and might discourage voters send it to your mailing lists before voting day! Find out why the Rebublican strategists are talking about "close election", associating it with what suits them!

by Musicians4Obama

[coachmo50]

good stuff

[kevinlangs]

I have to be honest and say these two men look a heck of a lot better making jokes and trading in this type of positive way. It seems this kind of positive professionalism has been sorely missed in the actual debates and election. Good to see it here.

[ObiAnakin1]

i really hate this joe the plumber dude

[khany1388]

exactly hes such a fake...how many plumbers earn 250 a year anyway and its also worth mentioning that he doesen't seem like much of an independent to me! His views on the economy and the fact that he actually opposes the war in Iraq which has been the centre piece of obamas campaign questions the credibility of this moron 'Joe' (whose name isnt even Joe by the way).

[tater686]

"Joe the Plumber" never claimed to make more than 250k. The company he works for, and the company he would like to buy makes over 250k.

[ctoma7]

No, as a matter of FACT, it doesn't. The company he works for pays two employees, "Joe the Plumber" (real name Samuel) and the company's owner. The business is run from the mans garage and would receive a tax cut under the Obama plan. By the way, "Joe" is not a licensed plumber and also owes over a grand in back taxes to the state of Ohio. This is just another one of McCain's shotgun ideas to gain support. He obviously didn't thoroughly research Joe first Reminds me a lot of his choice for VP.

[ObiAnakin1]

i swear politicians are some of the best actors on the planet

[regreg187]

You can't win in the middle east they will fight as long as they live.
