Barack Obama Acceptance Speech Nov. 4, 2008 Part 1

[outdoorsman909]

Thus begins the destruction of america.

[Reebokanonymous]

This video makes me realize how little experience Sarah Palin has in comparison to John McCain or Barack Obama.

[bomanerd]

can we have a redo

[leonardbrakefield]

very unique individual

[iunleashedthebeas13]

I am always amazed that people who voted for someone else to be President (or probably didn't vote) think that B.Obama should have fixed 8 years of huge spending, two wars, both of which were really invasions, the financial crap that was caused by those 8 years, and all of the other stuff right away. McCain was A BIG PART of those 8 years. You can actually NOT look at YouTube once in a while, get some facts and think about it. it's gonna take some time, MonkeyNutz

[sharktrinity]

Epic. I'm sure this will be tattooed in my head for life. Even the backdrop and the feel of the the setting of the speech was pretty magic.

[FreeTexas70]

@sharktrinity yeah and now look the country is far worst then it was before he got in office and still obama supporters are talking about how great he is

were on the verge of going to war with iran

Louisianas economy is now destroyed

Arizona is being torn to pieces by Drug cartells and three of there counties are now occupied by violent illegals

and obama instead of doing somthing about all this hes going on the view in a few days

yes he sure is on top of things

such a great president

[calleigh31323]

@FreeTexas70 YOU KNOW OBAMA CAN'T DO EVERYTHING BY HIMSELF. JUST THINK ABOUT IF HE WANTS A LAW PASSED IT HAS TO GO THROUGH THE CONGRESS AND ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE AND IF THEY DON'T WANT IT, IT WANT BE PASSED! HE STILL HARDLY DO ANYTHING ANYWAY BECAUSE THERE ARE HARDLY ANY DEMOCRATS MOSTLY REPUBLICANS IN OFFICE.STILL OBAMA DID RUINED THE COUNTRY IT WAS ALREADY RUINED WHEN BUSH WAS IN OFFICE.HE DIDN'T DO A GOD DAMN THING FOR AMERICA!!!! OBAMA I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[dbyassmith]

@FreeTexas70 In the past 4 years: How many major terrorists attacks on US soil have we had? Zero. How many new countries have we deployed troops to? Zero. Which way is the economy currently going? Upward. Now answer the same questions 5 years ago.

[inishboy2]

Right, but McCain said no to them.

[HRHDOT3]

It's interesting that when Obama mentions McCain in this speech, the crowds clap n cheer, yet when McCain mentions Obama during his concessions speech, the crowd goes "Boo!"

Just found that interesting

[Djpsycho2000]

i agree that is very interesting. Just shows you that we the people who supported Obama have a sense of respect for other people dispite their background and actions.

[aymanazihan]

maybe because they're all in a good mood that their obama won. dumb fuck.

[charlieshelds]

@aymanazihan looks like someones still a little bitter

[mistersumthing]

maybe it's because republicans on tv, radio and in every interview are always perpetually angry - so much so, that it defines them. dumb fuck

[calleigh31323]

@HRHDOT3 THAT'S THE REDNECKS CLAPPING

[jhbenson1990]

@HRHDOT3 If McCain had won, and Obama had given his concession speech and mentioned McCain, I am sure there would have been PLENTY of boo's and hisses to go around. It's a two-way street my friend.

[Jimmmeeehhh]

@HRHDOT3 because most Republicans in fact do not own brains.

[MrMyspace369]

yay obama won he is cool fuck maccina fucking t bag him lol

[guitargod1981]

yeh u niga say that

[hxcupcake08]

YES WE CAN!!!! Good job obama! Im proud of you!!! I love you so much!!!! ♥♥♥

[kvjhedfbv]

YES WE CAN!!!! Good job obama! Im proud of you!!! I love you so much!!!!

Hahahaha You stupid Americans.

You elected a guy that hates Americans, like you!

Obama is ruining your country and you deserve it.

[ivaflimkien]

thumbs up man

[rochell2love]

um sufianakne fuck you racist bitch is that word suppose to stop him cause either way he is still your president people can be so ignorant .... Go Borack I mean President Borack Obama

[cheyenne56ful]

I sad that Borack got in because of the towlheads. McCain got kentucky and he rocks and i don't like you comment at least i voted for McCain and you are for abportsish then. I hate Obeam go up my but

[3rkid2]

@cheyenne56ful

So you think the government should have control over a woman's body?

[milyan22]

does that word still exist

[sufiankane]

nigger

[techielove19]

YAY!!! Evolution in society is alive and well!

[cheyenne56ful]

Obeam wents to miss it up who every voted for him don't have tasty

[BlackXLilymon]

I, frankly, am surprised louisiana went red after the republicans pretty much said:

"What Hurricane?"

And looked the other way because they didn't want to spend money.

[HawkEagleWolf]

That's cause all the Dems left after Katrina, the middle and lower classes couldn't afford to stay and repair the damage.

[Lydiaj18]

What a Wonderful man = )

[ravagetime]

I can't wait for his first day of on-the-job training.

[chucknorrisrules1111]

Haha guess what.

I diddn't care that his name rhymed with osama

and his middle name is hussein

i dont care he hung with bill ayers

and i dont care if he is muslim or not

i love this man, and he is going to be one of the most remarkable presidents ever

i voted obama 08

[TheShadowcil]

YES WE CAN!!!!! =D

Finally I won't be ashamed of being american! Bush gave all americans a extremly BAD image and those who had moved away from the contrey to Europe, were treated like trash. Europe is against the war and what america had done these pasted 7 years... And so I was rejected, and insulted as if the war was MY fault. That Bush was my father or something... And now that Obama is here, I'm proud to have him as ONE of my présidents!

YAY!!!

BRAVO AMERICA for voting OBAMA!!!

[reggaeman1961]

JAH is my light n my salvation...whom shall i fear!

[WEareALLamerican0809]

barack hussein is white and black

[PantheraAtrox]

ya Jah, I & I

[WEareALLamerican0809]

lol

[amandam0nk3y]

He bribed his children to be good with a puppy 4:45 OMG!!!!!!

[Anisha618]

idiot..he told them that if he made it to the white house that they could have a puppy.perhaps a gesture of love for them being so understanding through out his process... some people will read into anything..even those who apparently are not that good at reading.

[schizokitty177]

don't want him to get JFKed

[Xmokko]

black or white isn't the subject. We picked one of their selections. it doesnt matter what he says. everything is preplanned. they already know what is goin to happen. We live in a controlled history, we'll be informed accordingly. Let's see what Illumates in our future. -peace

[Mikoariel14]

OMG. we have a sexy ass president.

[hxcupcake08]

damn right....id tap that XD

[wereallthievesxx]

YAY! barack obama is the best man to be our president, and you can see america thinks so too! :D

[TheSaalik]

hi America this is Murtaza from Pakistan. I felt obliged to thank you all for choosing to change. I am so happy and know it in my bones that u will get what u hoped for from this great victory. This century will be the best century for humanity since the dawn of time. Ive always had faith in you. The whole world celebrates this new dawn of the American leadership. Loads and loads of love and peace to u all. Yes u can!

[osiris2669]

we are proud to be americans again (it's been 6 years for me)! Yes we can!

[xorachaelluvsu]

i started crying :)

[WH0AHxELIZABETHH]

Barack Obama.

is. amazing. <3

[tarkus2000]

McCain supporters booed at the mention of Obama's name and Obama's suppoters cheered at mention of McCain

shows something about who McCain's supporters are

[WH0AHxELIZABETHH]

yes, good point (:

[TWEC21]

well look what McCain did,

he silenced those who booed.

He was polite about it. I still think concession speeches are bull though. "I want to wish congratulations to the person I spent the last 8 weeks verbally attacking and pointing out every one of his flaws. Good luck!" Give me a break.

[cupofnoodles901]

yeah really. good point.

[wendellarina]

It is amazing to hear not only a president but a politician use the words grateful, hopeful, and humility.

Wow so refreshing I feel the hope!!

[stoogeswoman]

Congratulations to Mr. Obama and to his supporters! I supported Mr. McCain, so of course I am disappointed this morning. However, I believe now we should put aside our differences and give our new President a fair chance. He made a very good speech here and I agree with a lot of what he said. So once again, congratulations!

[xorachaelluvsu]

good for you :)

[DesKai]

Change is on the way, it's going to be on the steps vowing in January. I'm proud to be an American again and last night felt like a huge relief was taken off the backs of millions of Americans and he's right, it's not going to be easy but then again nothing really is but we can do it, we will do it and we'll have that better tomorrow, today. Congrats to our President, Barack Obama.

[RyeDimarDragon]

I think we finally are getting over racism, having Obama elected is a big step for the USA too show off the freedom to all that ANYONE can do ANYTHING! The first black President of the USA, this is truly American history in the making...Too bad we still have to wait for 01/20/09 for Bush's last day in office in order for us to see any change take effect.

[rell127]

We will never get over racism but threw this we can see each other more as a person not as a race or gender. I really hope he will have a great first term and hope he gets an even better second term.

[smileyshannon77]

go obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!

[renata2405]

Congratulations all you Americans!! I don't know if you're aware, but in Europe we're also very happy!!!!!! Go Obama

[pj2293]

yes we are OBAMA RULES !!! :)

[ez2tok2]

Now I DO believe there's a GOD

[mtact88]

I'M SO PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN !

and a Californian. Although it looks like proposition 8 will pass, it is only by a small margin about 300,000 people. That will definitely change with progress.

GO OBAMA! DO THE DAMN THING MAN!

[agnosticman77]

i'm really proud to be an american right now.

[Chickengirl005]

GO OBAMA!!!!! it actually happened! after 8 grueling years of the GOP we finally have a Democrat again and a BLACK president at that! lets hope he dosen't get shot!

and unfortunately Prop 8 in Cali passed..but maybe..maybe with Obama a national amendment to pass gay marriage could happen.

[MrBennetzen]

How is like to fulfill what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. started?

[Sparklezmusic89]

Change will come:) OBAMA!!!:) best wishes and congratz from Canada. I have never cried during a speech the way I did last night:)

[tarachellex3]

He is the first president that I've ever gotten goose bumps while listening to them talk

[Stark1010]

I guess I'll get in line now with my hands out.

[aakiiree]

Everyone I meet here in Sweden is really happy and exited that Obama is the new president!

You've made change possible! :D

[GOneScUBa]

"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek."

-Barack Obama

YES WE CAN!

[brkelley2010]

[mariana2062]

[CRASS89]

Why is it when Obama mentioned McCain, people were polite and cheered. But when McCain mentioned Obama, the people booed?
