To those who say Obama isn´t experienced enough: You can be 100 years, but what if you didn´t use the time to your advantage? McCain is probably a nice enough man (if you accept the common practise of selling your ideals for votes) but Obama could be the man to change the world, the first since Kennedy. He has the talent, opportunity and inclination. And the world´s most influential country needs an extraordinary president, not an ordinary, wouldn´t you say?
Sick. Sick Sick SICK! McBush America is sick!!! Please vote for the sake of your country's health and well-being. It's your choice. Reason or greed, Obama or McGreed.
I love Obama. And its true that McCain mocked him for his simple advice on what We can do, and turned back on his words when he probably found out that experts agree. Thats politics for you. Go OBAMA!
and Chief justice Rehnquiest(Conserv). stepping down in near future. Two empty seats for The U S.Supreme
Justice O'Connor(swing voter)resigned. Courts appointed by next president. Also Justices position can only eliminated by retirements or impeachment. . This is a crucial election for our children and generations to come.
i dont know if people noticed but the people here have such loyalty to Obama and they view him as such a savior that they respect him utterly, like myself
you can see at 4:24 how he gives a quick laugh at his joke people wanted to laugh before but out of respect they kept quiet until he laughed himself thus making it ok for them to laugh, i might be reading too much into it, does anyone else see it?
You know i'm a republican i am, I love reagan and i also think clinton rocked.
Now Obama is saying middle incomes should be around 100k to 150k a year. 250k and up your doing well and he taxes the 4%, i think the 4% can afford that given the tax breaks they have got.
Mccain's plan "everybody should get rich"
Well uh that's realistic in these times.
Couldnt the republicans get a better candidate then someone talking about how tortured he was in vietnam, Honestly we get over it move on.
I am from England, and its very easy to sit in another country to comment on another countries political needs. However just listening to Barack, its just so obvious he is the future of America - a real breath of fresh air. He seems to be a person for the people and not for the corporations.
What Democrats don't want to hear is that they have been in control of CONGRESS(the people who make laws) for years and when the republicans were in control, GASOLINE was under $2 a gallon. DEMOCRATS have continually voted against drilling oil in new place nearly 10 years ago.. because they said"it'll take a decade for it to do anything" well look at it now,we got no new oil fucking spots and it's been a decade, wake up Democrats, stop pointing the fucking finger you got nobody to blaim but urse
i have a genious idea. lets use w. bushes idea, and do offshore drilling. why is obama against this, hes a joke.
GO OFFSHORE DRILLING!!!!
and can someone tell me exactly what obamas plan is? hes mentioned a few things but if he thinks that it will work for the whole USA then he is not as smart as his followers think he is. i liked the idea of a black president, but i just wont vote for him cuz hes crying "change" but hasnt explained how or what hes gonna change.
I don't want socialism for America. I dont' want more taxes to pay for government programs that waste money and don't work. I would rather continue to give that money to my charities of choice, not have it taken away and redistributed by the governement.
Does anyone remember in 1979 Carter warned us in a famous speech that we need to start changeing how we use oil in our daily lives or oil will control our daily lives in the future? Reagen said Carter was "gloom and doom",a line Rush Bimbaugh uses so often. Carter was slammed for being a straight-talker..well Mr.straight-talking McCain idolizes Reagen who also expanded big govt..and opened the door widely to lobbyist!Phil Gramm is very rich now for that..that's why he's not a whinner!wake up !!!
My husband is a geologist. He says offshore drilling would be very, very dangerous in many areas as oil could spew into the ocean like a sprinkler on a hot day. It is very, very irresponsible from an environmental standpoint to even suggest offshore drilling in many areas unless you want the ocean to be one big oil slick.
Democrats fought against civil rights , fought against freedom of slavery, fought against de-segregation........Thank GOD for Republicans! The Democrats of today still continue to enslave people in poverty through their government controlled social programs, not allowing them to be more than what the Democrats allow them to be! Democrats force people to stay in one level! By the way Dr. Marin Luther King was a Republican!
VERY IMPORTANT: Sunday Talk Shows keep saying Sen. Obama will choose anti-human rights crusader Joe Biden as his running mate. His career of demagoguery, skape-goating marijuana users to the great financial gain of his apparent owner & benefactor, DuPont Corporation. Yes, there are trillions of dollars there, but if Obama picks this right-wing idealogue, Democrats, Republicans & Independents will perceive that Obama has been bought out by DuPont. OTHER OBAMA SUPPORTERS PLEASE WEIGH IN ON THIS!
Barak, the world knows you are the better candidate, it knows Mccain is not as strong a leader, but it's afraid of the change. We can hear the courage between your words, in your speeches. A teacher of mine said that the real magic in music isn't found in the notes, it's in between the notes. We can all feel it. The WORLD needs you now, not just America. I'm Irish, on the brink of a recession, our banks follow the american economy. WE CALL ON YOU TO LEAD AND WE WILL MAKE CHANGE. STAY STRONG..
wow a democrat telling me im paying too much and vote for him? gimme a break what a poor argument. barack to me is just a facade. i have a hard time trusting him. nxt thing u no hes gona tell me i need to floss 4 days a week cus im spending too much to get cavities filld
look. i like barack obama. but why is he talking about the difference in gas prices? he's going to add taxes to gasoline as president, so it will become even MORE expensive.
I am a republican. I can see why the liberals are saying McCain would just be Bush all over again. I don't know what would be best for our country because some of Obama's ideas i don't agree with, higher taxes for the rich and lesser for the poor (Socialism instead of Capitalism) But I dont agree with McCain and his War plan (he seems to want to fight any country who looks at us funny). and to all Liberals who think there cant be a conservative environmentalist, your are wrong, I am.
"so did the triple A" haha that has to be the funniest line out of this speech. i like obama, don't get me wrong, but the "the" in that sentence is not correct but it is what old people do. to a youthful person like me, even Obama (47) is old and he speaks like it too hehe
Technically 'the Triple A' is correct, as AAA stands for American Automobile Association. The comment without the abbreviation would then be: "So did the American Automobile Association". Without 'the' in the sentence it would read "So did American Automobile Association".
yea we want change! wait a min what change are we talking about, the change of stopping all nuclear testing? oh ok so that russia and other countries will be able to have the upper hand because they dont give a shit if america stops nuclear development, in fact they will see an opportunity to pass america as a world power, and oh lets change america to a spanish speaking country "we should worry about if your kids can speak spanish" obama, yea we all want that change
Im from Holland, i follow the whole election, and this man is what the USA needs at the moment. I know for sure that when mccain wins, it will be the same era as the g.bush era.
I know people who believe that Democrats are to blame for the problems with the economy, gas prices, etc. I can't understand how anyone can be that brainwashed. We need to get out and vote Obama in, we can't take another 4 years of Republican rule.
For anyone that didn't know. John McCain was at the bottom of his military class at Annapolis, but still got to pilot a fighter plan due to his father's connections. He is the son and the grandson of admirals. He finished 894 of 899 in his graduating class. Despite crashing five aircrafts, John McCain was never disciplined. And son-of-single-mother Obama is, of course, the privileged elitist.
Obama does a good job of inspiring people and that is important for a country. He is able to encourage all different walks of life to become involved in politics, and understand more, and have an input into how their country is run. Obama is the way forward! YES WE CAN!
Obama needs to start bringing up that the oil companies already have millions of acres they can drill. So theres no guarantee they'll even drill in these new places, or that they're even obligated to sell that oil to America.
The millions of acres that the oil companies have don't have enough oil to drill to be significant in the least.
And though they don't HAVE to sell the oil to America, they still can. And even if they don't, it will increase the world's oil supply, lowering the price.
well we have more oil in america than the middle eastern countries have combined, but because of stupid environmentalists like obama, we will never drill. ha...He says just inflate your tires. ;]
Heres how I look at the situation, McCain mainly Swiftboats Obama and yet he still says he has more experience in the White House. Clinton is not a bad candidate, thanks a lotta people, but her husband made her which says a lot about her. Obama is intelligent with great plans for the future and yet he almost never used the swiftboat technique on McCain. So if I could vote, Id vote Obama...
(PS...Im Canadian, and I aint sum kinda eskimo moosehunter =P.)
Let's step back and reply on McCain's economic and energy policies vs. Bush's. Let me make a quote what McCain made at the beginning of his campaign. He said, 'I am no economists but feel that George Bush's economic and energy policies has been a success for American so I plan to continue those same policies if I become President of the United States of America'.
With that said, we have REAL economists who went on record stating that the Bush economic policies are a failure. You decide America..
Where you listening or are you only 8 years old? The price of stuff is going up because the supply of things are going down and the demand is going up.
Yes, prices do rise on everything and it's not a biggie unless it goes up ridiculously high than what it should normally be. It might be enough to shit on the entire economical system altogether.
Because other countries can see that the American 'freedom' and 'democracy' is being compromised under the Bush regime. Everyone else but the Republican Americans can see that he is completely irrational.
same reasons americans do...more emphasis on foreign policy though probably. also, keep in mind most non american countries are much more liberal than america to begin with.
To answer your question. I would like him elected because I believe he will play a great role in reconciliation of the world. I hope he will not be a president to launch wars, but to act wisely and restore the picture of America in the World. Why do I care? Because as a European I know we need strong America in the future if we want to protect our countries from Russia and China.
I also think that he is the representation of America as democracy, the American dream. America is historically not nationalistic and I admire that. If it hadn't been for America we would still have the world torn between Nazism and Communism.
because he has a lot of ideas that compare to those who move from one country to another......i know people from other countries that are citizens now here.....they love the idea of obamas new energy plans and how he deals with foreign policy.....maybe thats how others think too
i am voting for obama for those reasons and more.....Obama 08
I had a nightmare a few nights ago, in this nightmare Obama losses... I hope not, I speak in the behalf of the Argentinian citizens, we all support Obama. Our country is particularly bound to the US/UK politics and a radical change in their politics would result in a radical change in Argentina as well.
Obama I beg of you, win the elections, may God be with you.
Very early in the primaries it stood clear that Hillary Clinton is a much more ordinary person than Obama. That goes for John "Puppet" McCain, too. Shouldn´t the president of the world´s most influential country be an extraordinary person?
good lord obama is so screwed up and aggressive. hes too cowardly to ever hold a conference with mccain, so this one coming up will be a blast.
paris hilton was actually right. i know she was endorsing obama (one of the reasons i dont like her) but her plan is great. limited offshore drilling while trying to find alternative fuel sources. obama for the love of god please dont try to just search for extra fuel sources WITH purchasing foreign oil, only helping our enemies...
what an idiot barack is. he knows nothing about "windfall" profits. the economy is much better since Bush took office. Gas prices spiked since the democrats took control of congress.
i can't believe people have thumbs downed that comment. its a very valid point, guys - Obama says in his book that in his time at college he spent so much time criticising capitalism and religion and having his views reinforced that he forgot the reason he held those views, and the value of those things.
now i love the man, and i love him because he talks to everyone with genuine respect. its sad that people didn't respect Pepperwhite's comment.
Yes, it will save 3%-4% in gas. However , your quote was that tune ups would save as much gas as oil drilling would produce. This is obviously not the case. Thats why McCain was mocking the comment, not because he didn't think it would save some gas. And it will. I just inflated my tires yestersay. 8~)
If you drilled all the oil in ANWAR, it would amount to roughly 1 percent of American daily oil consumption. Americans could save 10 percent or more if they tuned their cars and aired up their tires -- and that savings would result immediately, not seven to 10 years down the road.
It's as if you are proud of your ignorance.
We -- you and I -- are the ones consuming energy and we are the ones who must solve this problem -- not Washington or the oil companies.
Indeed, people believe that ANWR has potential for oil, but the only way to be sure is to drill more. No exploratory drilling has been accomplished in the area except for one well commenced in the winter of 1984-85 on Kaktovik Inupiat Corporation and Arctic Slope Regional Corporation lands southeast of Kaktovik on the Coastal Plain.
You are absolutely WRONG IBHMC2. According to our own Energey Dept study, simply by keeping our tires properly inflated WILL save about the same amount as opening the continental shelf for oil. It's on the Internet, read it. McCain is Insane and , like Bush, finds FACTS annoying.
Obama is not tough enough on McCain; it's up to Obama's team to counter punch expediently on those false adds; Obama shouldn't pull his punches; I've seen only McCain adds so far in the Olympics, zero from Obama; why is Obama letting McCain run away with this election and why is he postponing debates that he will easily win?
I wish you guys would listen to me. the way to win the drilling debate is not to soften your position -- you need a commercial that accurately makes the case why drilling won't work (something obvious to some, but not most).
I wish you guys would do this, it's so worth the investment and would really change people's minds.
You idiots do know that Mccain and Obama both have their speeches written for them. This is nothing more than a candidate reading from a few pieces of paper.
To those who say Obama isn´t experienced enough: You can be 100 years, but what if you didn´t use the time to your advantage? McCain is probably a nice enough man (if you accept the common practise of selling your ideals for votes) but Obama could be the man to change the world, the first since Kennedy. He has the talent, opportunity and inclination. And the world´s most influential country needs an extraordinary president, not an ordinary, wouldn´t you say?

I know people who believe that Democrats are to blame for the problems with the economy, gas prices, etc. I can't understand how anyone can be that brainwashed. We need to get out and vote Obama in, we can't take another 4 years of Republican rule.

I found this on Popbitch:
For anyone that didn't know. John McCain was at the bottom of his military class at Annapolis, but still got to pilot a fighter plan due to his father's connections. He is the son and the grandson of admirals. He finished 894 of 899 in his graduating class. Despite crashing five aircrafts, John McCain was never disciplined. And son-of-single-mother Obama is, of course, the privileged elitist.

Obama does a good job of inspiring people and that is important for a country. He is able to encourage all different walks of life to become involved in politics, and understand more, and have an input into how their country is run. Obama is the way forward! YES WE CAN!

Obama needs to start bringing up that the oil companies already have millions of acres they can drill. So theres no guarantee they'll even drill in these new places, or that they're even obligated to sell that oil to America.
eddydeez 3 years ago 4
The millions of acres that the oil companies have don't have enough oil to drill to be significant in the least.
And though they don't HAVE to sell the oil to America, they still can. And even if they don't, it will increase the world's oil supply, lowering the price.
MilkMan2828 3 years ago
well we have more oil in america than the middle eastern countries have combined, but because of stupid environmentalists like obama, we will never drill. ha...He says just inflate your tires. ;]

Heres how I look at the situation, McCain mainly Swiftboats Obama and yet he still says he has more experience in the White House. Clinton is not a bad candidate, thanks a lotta people, but her husband made her which says a lot about her. Obama is intelligent with great plans for the future and yet he almost never used the swiftboat technique on McCain. So if I could vote, Id vote Obama...

Let's step back and reply on McCain's economic and energy policies vs. Bush's. Let me make a quote what McCain made at the beginning of his campaign. He said, 'I am no economists but feel that George Bush's economic and energy policies has been a success for American so I plan to continue those same policies if I become President of the United States of America'.
With that said, we have REAL economists who went on record stating that the Bush economic policies are a failure. You decide America..

the only reason why gas is so high is because the country that supplies it is raising up the prices because their is a war going on there.

Yes, prices do rise on everything and it's not a biggie unless it goes up ridiculously high than what it should normally be. It might be enough to shit on the entire economical system altogether.

Because other countries can see that the American 'freedom' and 'democracy' is being compromised under the Bush regime. Everyone else but the Republican Americans can see that he is completely irrational.

To answer your question. I would like him elected because I believe he will play a great role in reconciliation of the world. I hope he will not be a president to launch wars, but to act wisely and restore the picture of America in the World. Why do I care? Because as a European I know we need strong America in the future if we want to protect our countries from Russia and China.

I also think that he is the representation of America as democracy, the American dream. America is historically not nationalistic and I admire that. If it hadn't been for America we would still have the world torn between Nazism and Communism.

because he has a lot of ideas that compare to those who move from one country to another......i know people from other countries that are citizens now here.....they love the idea of obamas new energy plans and how he deals with foreign policy.....maybe thats how others think too

Our country is particularly bound to the US/UK politics and a radical change in their politics would result in a radical change in Argentina as well.
Obama I beg of you, win the elections, may God be with you.

Very early in the primaries it stood clear that Hillary Clinton is a much more ordinary person than Obama. That goes for John "Puppet" McCain, too. Shouldn´t the president of the world´s most influential country be an extraordinary person?

good lord obama is so screwed up and aggressive. hes too cowardly to ever hold a conference with mccain, so this one coming up will be a blast.
paris hilton was actually right. i know she was endorsing obama (one of the reasons i dont like her) but her plan is great. limited offshore drilling while trying to find alternative fuel sources. obama for the love of god please dont try to just search for extra fuel sources WITH purchasing foreign oil, only helping our enemies...

i can't believe people have thumbs downed that comment. its a very valid point, guys - Obama says in his book that in his time at college he spent so much time criticising capitalism and religion and having his views reinforced that he forgot the reason he held those views, and the value of those things.
now i love the man, and i love him because he talks to everyone with genuine respect. its sad that people didn't respect Pepperwhite's comment.

Davmoran1 3 years ago 7
Yes, it will save 3%-4% in gas. However , your quote was that tune ups would save as much gas as oil drilling would produce. This is obviously not the case. Thats why McCain was mocking the comment, not because he didn't think it would save some gas. And it will. I just inflated my tires yestersay. 8~)
IBHMC2 3 years ago 3
If you drilled all the oil in ANWAR, it would amount to roughly 1 percent of American daily oil consumption. Americans could save 10 percent or more if they tuned their cars and aired up their tires -- and that savings would result immediately, not seven to 10 years down the road.
It's as if you are proud of your ignorance.
We -- you and I -- are the ones consuming energy and we are the ones who must solve this problem -- not Washington or the oil companies.
Thoraxe12 3 years ago 5
Indeed, people believe that ANWR has potential for oil, but the only way to be sure is to drill more. No exploratory drilling has been accomplished in the area except for one well commenced in the winter of 1984-85 on Kaktovik Inupiat Corporation and Arctic Slope Regional Corporation lands southeast of Kaktovik on the Coastal Plain.
Final summation: LOL DRILLING

justinsgil185 3 years ago
You are absolutely WRONG IBHMC2. According to our own Energey Dept study, simply by keeping our tires properly inflated WILL save about the same amount as opening the continental shelf for oil. It's on the Internet, read it. McCain is Insane and , like Bush, finds FACTS annoying.

Obama is not tough enough on McCain; it's up to Obama's team to counter punch expediently on those false adds; Obama shouldn't pull his punches; I've seen only McCain adds so far in the Olympics, zero from Obama; why is Obama letting McCain run away with this election and why is he postponing debates that he will easily win?
good luck and God speed!
tsungen33 3 years ago
I wish you guys would listen to me. the way to win the drilling debate is not to soften your position -- you need a commercial that accurately makes the case why drilling won't work (something obvious to some, but not most).
I wish you guys would do this, it's so worth the investment and would really change people's minds.
