This man is a brilliant speaker who has run a brilliant campaign. This is the first candidate since I started voting in 1976 that I am truly enthusiastic about.
Since it is very much like Barack Obama's YouTube flunkies to block any negative comment about him this will probably never be read, but if it is then please listen. While I know that all politicians will do or say anything to get elected you really must look closer at this man before you vote for him. I am not trying to convert you to Republicanism or anything but I implore you to research this man's voting history or so-called accomplishments before you commit to him. Our country depends on it
I don't get it. I really don't get the inference that Mr. Obama is not the person that 'we' think he is. Does he transform into Dracula at night Tesla1077 and its YOU'RE, (correct spelling). When you look into the EYE, what do you see ( Lord of the Rings) Tell us, what do you see? I surely bank that he would not be the ABSOLUTE MORON we have now. ANYTHING, including, a talking parot would do better than BUSH.
... and watch your back, Mr. President. I have heard and read some really strange occurances that surround 'Friends of the Clinton's' who are no longer with us! The list was quite extrordinary to say the least. Desperate people, can do desparate things even after you take your place on the throne!
Liar liars yeah keep raising the hopes of the american people. Hillary clinton has more experience she will get working on day one..In contrast, you are likeable indeed but I dont feel you have the skills to take on such a job..I mean obama is a down to earth guy but lets get real a president negotiates works with other countries and that takes brain ..And hillary has it
umm... hillary just wants to get back in the whitehouse. How is she gonna start working? The gas tax thing? Good idea! Not! If anyone is gonna do something its obama. He is carismatic, beleives what is right, what is just, and whatit means to be american.
Onward to solutions we face as a nation in November. So many times in the past it's been about "victory" at the polls. But that has not solved any of our problems. This time will be different. One thing we have proven year after year is that we can come together to find solutions in times of crisis. That is why millions of us are coming together in support of not just a candidate but rather a movement which will bring about the positve change we seek one person at a time. GO OBAMA!! YES WE CAN!
sorry peeps im going to have to bust some knowledge on u. if Obama wasn't black he would have lost. Just don't argue u will make your self sound stupid. SECOND piece of knowledge, HE HAS little EXPERIENCE. spin it w/e but he has less than 4 years.
For everyone that say that comments are hand picked, I don't think thats true. I think comments get deleted automatically after they get a specified amount of thumb downs.
if u win i hope u dont do like bill clinton did he lock up more black during his term then any other president in history check it out good luck!!!!! yours biggiest fan saginaw michigan
Barack Obama is a freak'in socialist who doesn't have the balls to admit it. How can you trust a man who can't even be honest about who or what he is? There is a place for people like him and his philosophies; it's called France! His definition of "change" is wealth-redistribution and it's too bad that so many in his world have nothing to lose.
Is he talking to air? "big oil corporations", "wall street predators", they all support him, you ever think the media would let anybody who threatens them even come close to the nomination?
"Obama really scares the hell out of me. I know I am in the wrong crowd here so I will get a bunch of thumbs down. but he keeps talking about change, but its change that will hurt the US in the long run".
So your suggestion is to not change since the path that we are on hasn't lead us into a recession and record high gas prices? Just stay on the same trodden and failed path, makes sense!
GO OBAMA! PLEASE ABOLISH THE FED RES (A PRIVATE BANK THAT REGULATES THE MONEY SUPPLY AND THE VALUE THEREOF) Why am I working 5 MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR TO PAY for a tax (Income tax) TO A PRIVATE BANK FOR THE INTEREST OF WHICH THEY SET THE RATE? We need change! Lets start by following the Constitution. "CONGRESS (NOT A PRIVATE BANK) shall have the power to control the money supply and the value thereof." OBAMA PAUL 08 POLITICS OF CHANGE. Peace
I love barack. He allows you to post non pro-Obama comments. He is actually letting us speak our mind instead of deleting any negitive comments like hillary's videos!
Obama is black. Obama is white. He is the zebra of the Democratic Party. I do not understand if the whole generations on his mother's side are white and the whole generations on his father's side are black, why does this
make him black? I think people who saying he can not get votes from white people are delusional. He can get votes from all colors.
CELEBRATE THIS!!!!!!!this man is the most indecent person ever alive, anyone who would use Cancer Awareness Walk to further his career should be smacked upside his head and tossed on his rear,

being less dependent on oil will hurt us how? penalizing companies (as opposed to giving them corporate welfare) for shipping jobs out and cutting benefits will hurt us how? stocks might shrink a bit? c'mon i'd really like to know. attempting to reopen dialogue between parties as opposed to keeping the aisle divided and silent (except for the occassional filibuster) will hurt us how?
We already changed to a unconstitutional government. We changed to buying into lies that got us into a wrong war for the wrong reasons. G.W. Bush even makes Nixon seem liberal, & that is change. So Obama is change back to our original greatness, where we are united & believe in ourselves, our goodness, & our possibilities to be as a nation as we have always hoped for.
I did't give a thumbs down. I do that to only hateful, ignorant comments:). I am intrigued on what you think that Obama would do that is bad for the nation. Obviously, many of us believe this he is what nation needs. I haven't heard an argument yet that is convincing, but I am always open to others opinion as long as it doesn't include hate, namecalling, etc.
Well, what kind of change? Winning lottery and getting bankrupt is both change but one is good and one is bad. Why is change for the US allways going to be bad?
Obama is the right leader to represent the USA. He can disarm our so-called enemies just by his presence as president.They will think because he is such a statesman that he is not considered a bully,or radical threat to their country which in turn will make America safer. I bet he can speak other languages as well. Hillary and McCain can't do that.
Congrats Barack! I'm a huge supporter. My only critique is that it's blatently obvious that the comments are hand picked, and it seems really fake. I know you're better than that.
I've seen alot of negative posts on his videos, so I don't know what you mean. Yeah, they're a little outnumbered, but that's cause Barack has very vocal support on youtube. Look just above you, someone got 4 thumbs down.
How'd yours and "Slowdust"'s comments get on then? Compared to the five good comments on Hillary's site, I'd say these comments aren't checked at all.
Yes We Can!!! BALEH MA METONIM podemos sí ja können wir oui nous pouvons はい私達はできる ναι μπορούμε ja kunnen wij sim nós podemos да мы можем نعم نستطيع 是的，我们可以 Sì siamo in grado di
Hopefully he'll follow and defend our constitution. May I suggest, "CONGRESS shal have the power to regulate the money supply, and the value thereof"... The FED RES PRIVATE BANK prints money to loan us at an interest rate which they set and we pay through the income tax. Since the FED is a PRIVATE BANK this makes this whole economic system unconstitutional.
ever since i've been of voting age, i've voted for the lesser of two evils. i've chosen the candidate that i wouldn't "mind" being president, as opposed to the other one running.
but this time...this time i have the candidate that i want. a candidate i feel passionate about. a candidate who will inspire this country and save america's reputation in the world. a man who can do in the middle east what hillary clinton never will.
obama gives me hope in America he shows me DREAMS really do come true and nothing is impossible not even the fact that race can stop you from doing what you want 2 do Obama gives hope....
Thank you Mr. President for laying it ALL on the line..every question about your experience, every question about your patriotism, every question about your platform for change, every question about exactly who you are and what you stand for..is ALL answered in this..I can't call it a speech...its more than that...Its a Declaration!!!
ITS ABOUT YOU
ITS ABOUT ME
ITS ABOUT US
AND (Lord knows) ITS ABOUT TIME!!
LET'S BA-ROCK 'N ROLL PEOPLE!! ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE!
I don't want Clinton either. We must help Barack realize he doesn't need her. He can get a Clinton supporter maybe, but I don't think he even needs that to unify the Dems. The Dems will unify when they realize that Barack is better than John McCain.
i see edwards as an effective or even a great attourney general. one who'll, you know, do his job prosecuting offenses instead of committing them. i'd say richardson, but he's already grown the "i'm in retirement" beard, but he will make an excellent envoy. i'm really stumped. i'd say biden but we really need him writing legislation because he's just so darn good at it.
seeing him standing there makes you feel like anything is possible not because of his color but because he is like the majority of americans who go thur hard times but shows if you put ur mind to it anything is possible really is land of dreams that become reality..
People are tired of the same old thing same "Clinton Bush Clinton Bush" its time for a new flavor a new era and a new meaning for leadership in the world , we will overcome as Americans once we start acting like it again!! We go for Obama this time !
Yes We Can!!! podemos sí ja können wir oui nous pouvons はい私達はできる ναι μπορούμε ja kunnen wij sim nós podemos да мы можем نعم نستطيع 是的，我们可以 Sì siamo in grado di
Yes We Can. Promote good American businesses, end the corporate policy of shipping jobs over seas. Let foreign companies who create jobs in America come here, not those who take them.
PLEASE please do not let HRC have the veep spot on the Obama ticket! i cannot support her and 'old washington politics' in any way - and it would be the end of 'the dream for change' for millions of us. it would go against everything obama has said on this journey. she is a disaster.
Obama should check his history. Tuesday he said we should meet with our enemies like Roosevelt... FDR REFUSED TO MEET WITH JAPAN BECAUSE THEY OCCUPIED CHINA AND REFUSED TO MEET WITH NAZI GERMANY.
I guess Obama would have greeted Hitler at the White House.
As an independent voter who refuses to ever be shackled by either party's crap/dogma I say, Obama in '08!!!! He is the PERSON I want to see lead our country. It's time to really mean it when we say, Yes We ALL Can!
A President must have a vision, and an understanding. An encouragement of new technology and a strong defense. A President must be willing to both strengthen a nation and protect it. A President must be willing, if need be, to go to war; but must pursue peace. A President must be a statesmen who understands both the grand needs of the large organization as well as the simple needs of a child, and how to balance both. If you believe, you can achieve.
A President must look to the success and failures of past Presidents. A President must understand both the direct as well as the indirect. the empty and the full. A President must understand both the connotations as well as the denotations, the abstract as well as the concrete. A President must understand organization and order, as well as exceptions and tolerance levels. Not shaken by temper tantrums or ignorance, nor by aggression or passive deception.
A President must be a strong,benevolent, figure, not controlled by others, or easily angered. Not controlled by spouse (spouse is not an elected official),party, or any other group or individual. The President is a representation of the Nation to the world, and must have a character that is unimpeachable. The Vice President must also be an equally strong, yet benevolent figure, as they are one heartbeat away from the Presidency. Therefore, it is Important to choose a Presidential team wisely.
The guy that people really should have been pulling their heads out of the sand and seeing what he was all about was George Bush and the same fools from rural America elected him to two terms so of course they want Clinton now because Bush has about starved them to death and they've had to cut down on their bologna and Jack Daniels. They are voting color not their best interest. However, for reasonable people not the "bubba" population Obama will do well with all races and colors.
All I hear is give to the poor. Take from those who've earned it ("excessive oil profits"). Who determines what profit is excessive? What's to stop them from coming to your business and saying you've made "too much" profit?
Sounds like the classic redistribution of wealth to me. America is the "place you can make it if you try", but you have to work for it. Handouts don't fix anything. They just make more dependents. Wake up people.
as for what profit is excessive, how about the biggest profit since people started keeping track of such things? how about the price of a barrel of oil going up for us because the dollar is so weak, but the oil companies making sure that they don't lose a penny of profit...in fact, they take advantage of us getting used to rising prices and raise them more. do you think you will see gas for less than $3 a gallon again in your lifetime, if those companies are allowed to continue raping us?
Close your eyes and listen to this speech. Around the 4:00 mark, he sounds just like Morpheus from The Matrix. No wonder people are blindly following him. In this speech he never gives answers. He just talks about changing America. Again, what the heck is he going to change?
so whats the bais for your arguemnt sugermonkey? I hear people ask that, but it's usually those who have never read his plans. they are all on paper and public. read them. that will answer your question. every canidate makes a lot of promises. not all will come true. it's jsut about who we think is actually going to give it an honest effort and who is just pandering. everybody thinks that their canidate is the one not pandering. your argument is based on subjectivity.
SugarMonkey his website is available to everyone who wants to know what he plans to change. Stop asking "What is he going to change?" and listen to what he says he is going to change in his speeches and read it on his website.
Oh gawd I really hope there won't be a Obama/Clinton ticket. The worst thing Obama can do for choosing a running mate is a race baiting, hate mongering, ex-republican.
Don't worry, dogsouth - talk about a "dream ticket" has been dismissed by both candidates. I have no idea why it's still brought up by the media time and time again, but there ya go.
i completely agree - we were just having this conversation here among my neighbors - same sentiments. she represents everything that is subject to change through obama, and it would be a disaster to suddenly give that a platform again. it would defy the whole concept of "change" that has fueled our passion behind obama.
Well, I'm black, but it wasn't his skin color that made me want to support Barack Obama.
Truth is, I just feel better when he's around. He's calm and thoughtful, he makes sense, and when he speaks, I feel like he's telling the truth. I haven't felt that way about any politician in a LOOOONG time, no matter what their color. I can't wait for him to be my President! Oops, I mean OUR President. ;)
No doubt dude. That's what I tell family & friend when they ask why I support him. He's the first to come along in a long time that doesn't seem fake and full of shit. He definetly speaks from the heart and when he does...it sounds like a perfect solution. I wonder at times why others don't see what I see in him. I also wonder why Hillary doesn't support him knowing what a good honest man he is!
I noticed it too. That cool calm assertiveness is the true measure of a leader. He has the intellectual fortitude that can drive this nation onto the right path. I feel he can be a brilliant president.
PS. I'm in a big time red state. There were many Republicans switching just to vote for him in the caucuses.
Republicans aren't bad- The party just doesn't represent Republicans anymore.
Bush and his neo-con cronies are the ones pulling the strings.
Can anyone tell me exactly what "change" Obama is going to make? I see the word, large and in all caps, on the sign, but he never really tells us what he's going to change.
Don't bother trying to enlighten SugarMonkey, kjfudge; he's a Paultard. They can't be convinced by things like "sense" or "reality." Best to ignore them.
HE CARES FOR THE PEOPLE NOT THE MONEY... I'm sure people will help him on the economic side of things.. he understands people, thats what a president should be good at..
If you want to sit at home on Election Night in November and watch the returns come in strong and steady for McCain, then keep supporting Obama. If you are a loyal Democrat and you actually want to win this thing, then get behind the ONLY people who know how to beat the Republicans: THE CLINTONS.
Notice all the whites positioned behind BHO. What a set up considering 90+ % of blacks are voting black this year. How racist. Just like Pastor Wright
lincoln was a republican you dipstick. and if he knew how liberal Obama was he'd jump off your five dollar bill you got from welfare and slap the dumb out of all you Bamazombies.
You dumbasses, voting in a radical socialist only makes EVERYONE poorer. You think gov programs will make you all safe, rich and happy? Nothing prevents someone from trying like charging those that try and rewarding those that dont. When someone is fed free crumbs - they forget they have the right to earn the whole cookie. Every superpower in human history leaned liberal right before they collapsed. We're next I guess. Bring on destitution, you freakin zombies.
blehh, just another dangerous socialist. The magic is gone, black and poetic got you a long way buddy but being the least experienced candidate in history, befriending racists, having the lowest average of voter education ever, sacrificing the middle-east to tyranny, preventing domestic energy options, importing mexicos poverty with open borders and having absolutely no sense of economics have made you not so impressive. Everything you say belongs on a hippi bumper sticker, not US legislation.
I'm a white independent vet of iraq, who after this speech is voting for obama. Hill hates the military, and McNutty is a loose cannon. I'll take his inexperience over those two losers any day of the week.
... listen careful on 13.05 to 14.00... Think. Politics of fear must come to an end.

Congrats Barack! I'm a huge supporter. My only critique is that it's blatently obvious that the comments are hand picked, and it seems really fake. I know you're better than that.
minervian1 3 years ago
I've seen alot of negative posts on his videos, so I don't know what you mean. Yeah, they're a little outnumbered, but that's cause Barack has very vocal support on youtube. Look just above you, someone got 4 thumbs down.

How'd yours and "Slowdust"'s comments get on then? Compared to the five good comments on Hillary's site, I'd say these comments aren't checked at all.

Hopefully he'll follow and defend our constitution. May I suggest, "CONGRESS shal have the power to regulate the money supply, and the value thereof"... The FED RES PRIVATE BANK prints money to loan us at an interest rate which they set and we pay through the income tax. Since the FED is a PRIVATE BANK this makes this whole economic system unconstitutional.

The great orator is here. Makes me feel good to have witnessed this great speech . I believe this is one of the greatest live speech I have heard.
Not many people can deliver such a speech that makes everyone in the world feels included not only Americans, it pulls you in.

ever since i've been of voting age, i've voted for the lesser of two evils. i've chosen the candidate that i wouldn't "mind" being president, as opposed to the other one running.
but this time...this time i have the candidate that i want. a candidate i feel passionate about. a candidate who will inspire this country and save america's reputation in the world. a man who can do in the middle east what hillary clinton never will.
go obama!

I don't want Clinton either. We must help Barack realize he doesn't need her. He can get a Clinton supporter maybe, but I don't think he even needs that to unify the Dems. The Dems will unify when they realize that Barack is better than John McCain.

A President must have a vision, and an understanding. An encouragement of new technology and a strong defense. A President must be willing to both strengthen a nation and protect it. A President must be willing, if need be, to go to war; but must pursue peace. A President must be a statesmen who understands both the grand needs of the large organization as well as the simple needs of a child, and how to balance both. If you believe, you can achieve.

A President must look to the success and failures of past Presidents. A President must understand both the direct as well as the indirect. the empty and the full. A President must understand both the connotations as well as the denotations, the abstract as well as the concrete. A President must understand organization and order, as well as exceptions and tolerance levels. Not shaken by temper tantrums or ignorance, nor by aggression or passive deception.

A President must be a strong,benevolent, figure, not controlled by others, or easily angered. Not controlled by spouse (spouse is not an elected official),party, or any other group or individual. The President is a representation of the Nation to the world, and must have a character that is unimpeachable. The Vice President must also be an equally strong, yet benevolent figure, as they are one heartbeat away from the Presidency. Therefore, it is Important to choose a Presidential team wisely.

The guy that people really should have been pulling their heads out of the sand and seeing what he was all about was George Bush and the same fools from rural America elected him to two terms so of course they want Clinton now because Bush has about starved them to death and they've had to cut down on their bologna and Jack Daniels. They are voting color not their best interest. However, for reasonable people not the "bubba" population Obama will do well with all races and colors.

All I hear is give to the poor. Take from those who've earned it ("excessive oil profits"). Who determines what profit is excessive? What's to stop them from coming to your business and saying you've made "too much" profit?
Sounds like the classic redistribution of wealth to me. America is the "place you can make it if you try", but you have to work for it. Handouts don't fix anything. They just make more dependents. Wake up people.
SugarMonkey528 3 years ago
as for what profit is excessive, how about the biggest profit since people started keeping track of such things? how about the price of a barrel of oil going up for us because the dollar is so weak, but the oil companies making sure that they don't lose a penny of profit...in fact, they take advantage of us getting used to rising prices and raise them more. do you think you will see gas for less than $3 a gallon again in your lifetime, if those companies are allowed to continue raping us?

so whats the bais for your arguemnt sugermonkey? I hear people ask that, but it's usually those who have never read his plans. they are all on paper and public. read them. that will answer your question. every canidate makes a lot of promises. not all will come true. it's jsut about who we think is actually going to give it an honest effort and who is just pandering. everybody thinks that their canidate is the one not pandering. your argument is based on subjectivity.

Truth is, I just feel better when he's around. He's calm and thoughtful, he makes sense, and when he speaks, I feel like he's telling the truth. I haven't felt that way about any politician in a LOOOONG time, no matter what their color. I can't wait for him to be my President! Oops, I mean OUR President. ;)

No doubt dude. That's what I tell family & friend when they ask why I support him. He's the first to come along in a long time that doesn't seem fake and full of shit. He definetly speaks from the heart and when he does...it sounds like a perfect solution. I wonder at times why others don't see what I see in him. I also wonder why Hillary doesn't support him knowing what a good honest man he is!
