  • I WAS THERE!!!

  • I guess the best we can hope for from Edwards now is for him to vote for Obama. He surely won't be on the campaign trail with him, and he surely won't be on Obama's shortlist anymore.

  • It's the President and his Attorney General.

  • WOW, great speech!

  • Still can't get over John Edwards...he offers Americans a true leader...

  • OBAMA EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT!

  • Obama/Edwards08

  • hell yes!

  • what's the song at the beginning?

  • Comment removed

  • the rising by bruce springsteen

  • Did he ever get his Jet ski?

  • lol, they booed when he mentioned hillary.

    Obama '08, thats all i have to say

  • John Edwards is a fine American, and more important, a Patriot!!! I look forward to seeing he and hillary in obama's cabinent! Barrack/Clinton08!!!!1

  • I want Edwards as the VP....the repubs would pick an obama/clinton ticket apart...i say clinton in a cabinet posistion...maybe even as sec of state

  • @tavadon777 I wish that also.

  • I was at the rally that night, and the energy was AMAZING! Obama in 08!

  • "Whats he doing here" LOL funny stuff!!!

  • crushing blow for clinton. might have led edward supporters to support obama instead.

  • Obama/Edwards '08!

  • John Edwards has an in depth insight into domestic social issues that would greatly enhance the Obama administration and as for this speech.

    WOW!!! great stuff.

  • Edwards is a SEXIST....... There is One MAN (NOT PERSON, ONE MAN)

    Screw all of you sexist hypocrites!

  • Do you do not know that man can also mean human? If not,do you think , that the founding fathers are sexists, too? "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal"

    They also say men and not humans.

  • man that's a great haircut

  • i love when they start chanting obama.

  • V.P.!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • AND THEY SAY MY MAIN MAN COULDN'T GET THE WHITE VOTE. McCAIN HERE WE COME. OBAMA IS GONNA BEAT YOU LIKE YOU STOLE GOD'S SUPPER.

  • If a man can bring white and black people together like this how can this country not give Obama a shot.Even Dr.Martin Luther King,Jr(God bless his soul) wasn't able to unite people like this.I feel that if you vote you shoud vote Democrat regardless because if John McCain is the best and brightest the Republicans have and he gets elected then this country is doomed! Put race and prejudices aside and look at the state of our country.8 years of destruction by the Bush regime.We need a frest start

  • John Edwards would be an excellent vice president

  • All America is For Obama, It was a pleasure to have met him. Change is really coming for all Americans,

    Thank You

  • I think the dream obama administration would be Hillary, Edwards ,Jesse Jackson, Ron Paul ,

  • I'm sorry, but an Obama/Edwards ticket, while electorally strong, would be an incredibly weak team in actuality. Edwards doesn't offset any of Obama's weaknesses - rather, he accentuates them. Barack Obama needs somebody who can compensate for his lack of experience, and Edwards doesn't do that in the slightest. I'd like a VP with some foreign policy experience - Joe Biden, maybe?

  • Although Obama owns at speeches, Edwards is very solid at them as well, especially this one, and this one combined with Barack's speech after his, it was the best two person speech I've ever seen..

  • Obama 08... Real Leader for our Country...

  • look like edwards got a piece of the pie,

    V. President Edwards

  • probably more along the lines of AG Edwards, which is a far better choice than having him on the ticket. As well as the fact that he's already said unequivocally that he is not interested in running as a VP again.

  • very very very good speech  Obama '08

  • Their education is our education

    nice line!

  • THIS IS "THE TEAM" for Democrats in 2008!

    Obama/Edwards for President 2008! That IS IT! JR

  • YES WE CAN

  • what's that song theyplayed when Edwards walked in?

  • Obama and Edwards this is the team.

    Obama/Edwards 08

  • this is true, i would be willing to bet money, cash money.

  • Puleeze can we get and Obama Edwards Ticket, I think I would have died and gone to heaven to see them two working together for our country.

  • Hello,

    I'm 19 years old, and even I know it's wrong to not count votes based on technical reasons. Didn't Bush's people do this to win against Gore? Florida is not haviing their votes counted, again. You do this, and you'll lose them. And you'll also lose me, a young voter. If Michigan and Florida aren't counted I'm going to be voting for McCain in November.

    Sincerely - Tyler Young (Federal Way, WA)

  • I was Edwards supporter before he dropped out and then I switched to Obama, I think these two should run on the same ticket, I love them together

  • I think I'm gonna puke...

  • Obama & Edwards

    Batman & Robin

    Dr.Dre & Eminem

    Obama '08

  • He's spent so much time in the beginning on praising Hillary because he wants to unify the party but also doesn't want to make her any madder than she probably already is.

    Let's tear down those walls!

  • Obama / Edwards '08

  • fuck you

  • Edwards is still young and will be a great democratic candidate in 8 years after Obama

  • canidates always seem so much more awesome after they dropped out...idk..they just seem more genuine.

  • Would like to see edwards or kucinich as vice prez.

  • Thank you sooooooo much senator Edwards! You made the right choice and we should all be grateful. Barack Obama is the right one to make the world a better place. Thank you!!!!

  • Shows why he would've made a bad president...bad timing.

  • Barack Obama and John Edwards looks like a formidable ticket for the Dems. McCain should watch out,............. there could be a LANDSLIDE !!!!

  • Is Obama a cult leader,leading the largest mindless cult in History ?

  • geeeez this crowd is hyped up.... let the guy speak!!

  • Hey... I don't care what anyone says... Edwards gave a great speech. He and Obama does look cozy and they both speek with passion so... look out... I think we have Batman and Roben Marshal and Drey stile.

  • why does he spend the first few minutes praising Hillary like that in Obama's campaign ? Some kinda political maneuvre ?? these things always confuse me

  • Hekma:

    He's saying that his reasons for choosing to endorse Obama are nothing against her.

  • It's a show of sportsmanship. In a race this intense there needs to be healing between the two sides and don't think Hillary's going to be out of the picture.

  • it seems like he did it out of respect..the impact of Edwards endorsing Obama is huge

  • Obama needs Hillary supporters in November to win. That's a simple fact, they make up almost half of Dems. If they either don't come out to vote or vote Republican 'cause they're angry at Obama then we're screwed.

  • hekma, to show he has no hard feelings probably.

  • EPIC.

  • Obama and Edwards, the ultimate force to beat Mccain and the failed Bush politics of the past

  • FTW!

  • Almost every other candidate for the democratic nomination has now endorsed Obama. Only Hillary is left of the key pledges to add her endorsement to his campaign. I don't think I've heard one from Mike Gravel, but I think he's running for the libertarian party now? Edwards would make a great running mate for Obama, good luck to the democratic party in 2008

  • Edwards is a class act...He is all about serving our country and standing up for working class and poor families...He puts principle before politics...He led the party on issues this year. I was glad to hear Obama adopting Edwards' stance on poverty...I hope Obama makes Edwards part of his cabinet.

  • Obama promised you a jet ski. Makes sense.  He's promised everybody everything and he can't deliver.

  • Wow...

  • what am i doing here?! i want to be VP

  • Obama/Edwards '08!!!!

  • Obama is the Fonz!

    * OBAMA/EDWARDS '08 *

    The Untouchables.

  • This is great news!! Obama / Edwards would be a great ticket!! Leave Hilary out of all of it. Click on my name if you want to hear about her last "35 Years".

  • Censorship for these comments has gotten irrational if things like "You are stupid, dumbass. Hillary is DONE. She is just being stubborn and a bad loser... " are considered to be appropriate political content for posting, while many other comments including possibly his one will not make it to the page despite not having any offensive or divisive language. Are youtube comments such a central forum that people can't be allowed to discuss even when they are not being offensive?

  • Why won't this channel allow my comments to be posted from yesterday? they were not insulting or crude, they endorsed Obama and were thoughtful. The fact that this comment channel is filtered and that other candidate's leave theirs open really speaks negatively about Barack. These comments are not serious, and should not be censored unless it's for offensive content which I did not have any of.

    Having views silenced is not a good way to please undecided voters

  • Are you really getting censored? You've left a bunch of comments as far as I can tell

  • I always knew Edwards liked obama he gave him hell for one debate but they always saw eye to eye maybe he can be his running mate.

  • BOOOOOOOO

  • Reminds me of Rome just before Caesar crossed the Rubicon and started the civil war. The age of the forum is back. But who writes this stuff? It could be so much more.

  • nice hair, john. about dam time he endorsed barack.

    Gobama

  • Hello President McCain

  • I love Edwards. Let's get Obama in so we

    can give this man a great supporting role

    to get this country back on track. VP or

    Attorney General...it's all good and gives

    me hope after these disastrous 7 years.

  • UNITE: Obama, Edwards, and Clinton

    UNITED against the radical neo-cons.  United against Radical PNAC members

    Did you know that amongst McCain advisers is Robert Kagan, a renowned neoconservative and the co-founder of 'Project for New American Century'.

    There will be NO improvements with McCain. Only a more drained economy, tax cuts for the rich, oil companies exploiting, no health care for college students and poor people; McCain = more wars, McCain is NOT going to be president!

    UNITE

  • 5/14, a great day in America. While I thought this day would come a month ago, I am glad it has finally happened now. I have always had the greatest admiration for John Edwards, and he inspires me every day. A better man could not possibly endorse Barack Obama, and I am grateful for his support. Welcome aboard, Senator. We're going to the whitehouse!

  • edwards for VP

  • I would love an obama edwards ticket as a registered republican I'd vote for them in a heart beat.

  • Heard it...

  • Hillary - Pls. Wrap it up and get behind 'US.'

    McCain/Bush - Open-mindedness to Diplomacy even with our enemies is a way to strengthen our Nation. Think, Reagan and Gorbachev. That would've never happened without Open-minded intelligence and Diplomacy.

    GodSpeed Senator OBAMA....

    WE are with you.

    WE will be UNITED once and for ALL.

    YES We Can.

  • Everyone around the world wants Barack to be president... you dont see people from all around the world on Clinton videos. Come we have to pull this one out everyone! Go Obama!!!!

  • I think it's great that Edwards talks about how wonderful Hillary is. Let us all not forget that Hillary is still on our side even if she does not fully represent all of our ideals. It is true, Dems are a stronger party w/ Hillary. This we should never forget. Edwards has it right, Endorse Obama and respect Hillary's contribution. As much as many of us want Obama, Hillary deserves her Thank yous!

    Obama 08

  • He did this so Obama would choose him as Vice-President.

    Hillary's still in it, it's not over yet.

  • As a Democrat impartial to Clinton and Obama, it's SO good to see this thing winding down now...

    It's time for Americans to take their nation back.

    Obama 08!

  • I didn't image Edwards is so cheap. That is why he was tramped. This is why demoncratic party will loss in November. Who cares you get to be the VP or not.

  • I wonder if Bush bought Edwards a jet ski when Edwards pretending he believed the "WMD" lies, even though Edwards was on the committee and knew perfectly well Bush and Cheney were making up evidence.

    Then Edwards supports the war until it's politically unpopular. I like Edward's message, but the man has zero integrity.

  • An Obama-Edwards ticket would be cool and all, but something you all have to realize is that Edwards is really talented and skilled at politics.  Giving him the position of VP would be dumb (as VP doesn't do anything other than cast a tie-breaking senate vote)

    Give him something useful!

  • The point is Edwards can succeed Obama after he's done... and Edwards will not just sit on his backside and collect a check... This would be a dynamic 8 years which could lead to a "New Golden Age" for America for 16 years or better! J R

  • Obama, Obama, Obama!!!!!

  • Obama- President, Edwards- V. President, George Mitchell - Sec. State, Reuben - Sec. Treasury, Reich- Sec. Labor, Sec. Defense - Bill Belichick in 2008

  • Very inspiring Mr. Edwards. I hope Obama picks him as his running mate. :) Obama/Edwards 2008!!!

  • I hope John Edwards will run as Barrack Obama's running mate.

  • judging by his expressions, i think edwards' endorsement looks strictly political...yikes... hopefully the democrats can overcome a split party... edwards' endorsement alone won't help the overshadowing problem going on (for obama) in the rust belt states. obama's got to do a lot of work to do over there.

  • This was even better on tv because you got to see how HUGE the crowd was. It was amazing.

  • Last nail in Clinton's coffin !

  • John Edwards, thanks for the endorsement, but not a good idea for VP, Edward's supporters will vote for Obama with or without him as VP. Obama needs someone like Bill Richardson who appeals to a broader base and has more experience than Edwards. Hillary was a formidable opponent (albeit not deserving)which speaks volumes about Obama.

  • This is great news!! And he might make a decent Vice President!! If you want to know what Hilary has been doing for "35 Years" click on my name...

  • Here's my crazy Dream Team.

    Obama - President

    Biden - Vice President

    Clinton - Secretary of State

    Edwards - Attorney General

    Bill Richardson - US Ambassador to the U.N.

    Dennis Kucinic - Campaign Reform Tzar

    Ron Paul - U.S. Monetary System Tzar

  • Edwards/Obama, please!

  • thank you john

  • It's high time--Buy John Edwards his jet ski!

    Go Obama!!

  • djp.... you suck..hillary cant even run her campaign.. you gonna let her run the country? you sound ignorant...

  • i really hope that obama wins. our gov and Bush has brought this amazing country down. americans hate Bush just as much as other countries do. americans are good people, and Bush has brought us all down. GO OBAMA!!!!

  • he's made the right choice.

    Obama 08'

  • An Obama/Edwards ticket would be nice...

  • McCain/Huckabee 08!

  • Edwards for Attorney General. Evan Bayh for Vice President.

  • There at the end of John Edward's speech, they held up their hands while standing together and looked like a Obama/Edwards ticket??? Who knows who would be best. I'm sure Obama knows who he will be asking but I still wonder. Hillary is acting really nice lately but I think it's too litle, too late.

  • obama/edwards 08

  • Somebody get this man his jet ski: )

  • If obama isn't elected, then I give up whatever hope i got left for the U.S. and its people.

  • I feel as if Obama is our rewad after 8 years of a disastrous, dark, close-minded, ignorant, fear-mogering PResident. Its amazing how the WORLD loves Obama. I think people around the world will view him as their President.

  • I was there!!

  • TY Mr Edwards. Now hope the others join in. Let's end this. No more McSame.

  • Another international interested party for Obama ... I have been a right-winger my whole life because I feel the health of a nation is in economy, not healthcare. But for the first time in my life I'm pro-democrat, John McCain is not a true republican, he does not embody conservative ideology. Obama will be weak on internationak affairs and probably only serve 1 term, but the American people and the world need a moral authority, not another rich white elitist aggresive male. Also, Paul>Obama

  • I got to see this live! It was amazing seeing Edwards speak and think "Wow, he's a great speaker," then Obama goes up there and I thought "Wow, he's an even better speaker." I really hope it becomes Obama/Edwards '08.

  • 'And it will be over soon'. HAHAHA

  • Huge congratulations Obama. Onward to the whitehouse!!!

  • Obama has a very eye pleasing agenda but lets be serious here.... he has very little experience in the government. Oh, not to mention, hillary clintong ( wife of bill clinton ) is his opponent. Lets look at Bill clintons reforms on the economy... he put the economy in the best shape it had been in a while. Obama is not hated by me, and im not a clinton supporter, but if i had to choose it would be clinton because she has more experience and she will do more for the middle class families.

  • i like hillary but at this point she is just hurting the democratic party

  • We love you Senator Edwards!! Thank you for staying in the fight for working Americans.

  • I just spent a few months in Argentina and the general feeling was the same. The world needs to see the diversity of USA. They want to see that it is possible for us to elect someone different from the regime of the past years. Not just Bush but also Clinton.

  • "I was promised a Jet Ski" LOL!!! :)

  • I totally agree with John Edwards on there being two Americas, and corporate greed being out of control and leading to the loss of American jobs. However, it is interesting to hear Democrats speaking so strongly against the system, seeing as they are also capitalists.

  • Obama votación para Presidente de los Estados Unidos!!

  • Welol first of all I am not from The US. I live in France in Europe.. I am not allowed to vote in the US election but i think that the best candidate for the US and for the world ís barack Obama.. so Vote obama.. I think the world will be a better place if he is elected president. Barack Obama vote à la présidence des États-Unis!

  • yes we can !!

  • She cares about the people and healthcare and jobs, so why doesn´t she stay at home and let Obama do the job. She doesn´t care for anyone exept herself! She is behind in delegates, popular vote and superdelegates. And she should go NOW.

    This is not tenecity she shows, it´s stubbornness!

  • my channel is dedicated to the cause

  • Fight Elitism in America!

    Fight the outrageous divide between the working classes & the super-rich!

    No more bought policies!

    *OBAMA/EDWARDS '08*

    The Untouchables.

  • Canada is 4 Obama

  • I give Obama credit for every vote he has EARNED! He did not pass out street money for votes..He EARNED them!

  • obama rocks

  • i think edwards waiting put him in great position for vp

  • Obama/Edwards I like the sound of that!!!!!!!!!!

    GO OBAMA AND EDWARDS.. HELP US BRING OUR COUNTRY BACK TO BEING NUMBER 1 in the World..

  • I forgot how much I liked John Edwards.

    Obama/Edwards 08?

  • WE NEED REAL CHANGE..... This is Why We SWITCH From CLINTON TO OBAMA

  • If John Edwards thought Barack Obama was the best canditate he sould have endorsed him MONTHS ago. SHAME ON YOU JOHN EDWARDS!!!

  • This is so stupid. Obama sucks and so does John Edwards. The only one who can do anything is Hillary Clinton!

  • please just forget about it shes out. choose obama or mccain. come on quit the fighting!

  • We can do it if we work together to beat McSame. I'm sorry Hillary didn't win. She faught a good fight. But we need you sisters. Let's stand behind a canidate that will bring our troops home, restore our honor, protect our bodies, and lead us with hope instead of fear.

  • Wow your insights have convinced me to support Hillary!

  • Thanks for your encouragement!!

  • All she needs to do is get out already! geez....

  • Djpstudios" I have a tissue to wipe your eye with

  • you meaning the only one who can do anything is the one who cant win...umm ok

  • All those "bitter Americans" might just flock to McCain. Let's see how far this fairy tale can go.

  • Tell me, how does Obama suck? How does Edwards suck? And why is Hilary SUCH a better candidate than the latter? Please, enlighten us all! I just can't wait to read this.

  • If he had endorsed Hillary, you would not say this. typical HRC supporter.

  • any of them will be better for America than McCain!

  • Proof please

  • Hillary?? lol. Her only interest is herself, not the American people. Its a good thing her arrogance back in 2007 caught up to her..

  • You are stupid, dumbass. Hillary is DONE. She is just being stubborn and a bad loser...

  • Oh please...you have NO idea.

  • How low can you go? Hilary is done with. Beaten. Destroyed. Deal with it already. Obama is the winner...

  • DJP, stop with the hate man.

  • I come also out Holland. I don't have roots in america but i can find myself in the words of shanti. There is a very bad picture about america and about de american people i don't think it's fair because in much ways we like amerika. We like there food there music there products and so much more.

    But i am sure that obama can chance this view because he have also a bigger view of the world he now that better than every other candidate i hope that John Edwards will be the vice president!

  • Edwards would be a terrible VP. He has the stench of failure around him, and he voted for the war.

  • f.y.i. americas products come from china and mexico.

  • Yesterday Barack Obama gave the Michigan voters something special since he was not allowed to campaign there earlier in the earlier - a John Edwards endorsement!! It's time now to give Florida something special - an Al Gore endorsement of the next President of the United States!!

  • keep dreaming.... it ain't gonna happen.. what also won't happen will be obama winning in FL com NOV.

  • I was there!! It was the most exciting thing ever! I can't wait for a change. This by far was one of the most thrilling experiences of my life so far. BARACK OBAMA '08

    YES WE CAN!!!!!!!!!

  • Obama/Edwards would be a feel good ticket. But I think Hillary did a hell of a job bullying her way in the VP spot. Not to say Hillary is no good but I like Edwards better.

  • With Obama, America will be again the symbol of freedom, democracy and future.

    The world Christianity loves Obama!!

  • now obama/edwards, that would be a great ticket

  • ditto *fingers crossed*

  • After 8 years of bush, the world hates america more now then ever before. The problem is the Government does not represent the american people. I sincerely hope you do indeed have a plan to change a system that is very much embedded or in bed with the corporations. And if you don't do this, i want my money back that i donated to your campaing.

    thanks
