John Edwards Endorses Barack Obama

[nakedbullwinkle]

obama does not need edwards endorsement now for he is done as a political figure as of 8/8/08..............done!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[MrLister77]

great! OBAMA 08!

[mmaxsters]

john edwards for vice president

[densor05390]

How about not. I would vote for Mccain if Obama picks Edwards!

[stanleymaiden]

Yes, i cannot think of any better combination.

The grass roots stability of Edwards and the capcity of Obama to actually turn round the mess our countrys in.

If this happens I might even consider comming home again.

[KathrynD08]

Edwars sucks. And what with Michigan, Obama didn't even care for their votes (I think he would have even won Michigan) but there he goes giving the finger to anyone he thinks does not agree with him, and he finger Michigan by refusing to even agree with a revote.

[ProserpinaFC]

Michigan didn't have Obama on it's ballot.

In fact, even though when Michigan voted there were 7 candidates, Michigan only had 2 candidates names on its ballot.

Is that unfair, Kathryn?

[XBOXLIVESCaptainN7]

UNITED KINGDOM FOR OBAMA!!!

[xsocialburnx7]

United Kingdom for trendy candidates who lack substance.

[muizzze]

no ur right, picking Bush 3 is wayyyy better LOLLLLLLL

[Wesdt2]

It is not the worsest thing to have a President with some percentages of Islam in his blood whcih could help him understand Middle East affairs.

[maxvao]

GOO OBAMA from AUSS!!

[askandrany1]

I really hate Hil campain cuz they do reviwe every thing i hope obama dont do that it is america where is the freedom

[70tee]

hillary pls step aside. its over

[YunriChan]

OBAMA O8 C:

[peacenikkle]

Obama is the candidate of CHANGE? why is the candidate of change getting overwhelming support from old white haired SENATORS?and MR CLAIROL,EDWARDS.OLD WHITE MEN getting the ole boys club to pull the strings. KENNEDY THE TIRED OLD PUPPET MASTER and CHRIS MATHEWS being a good ole boy in the IRISH MOB.

[geroldfirl]

At an NRA event tonight Mike Huckabee made a "joke" threatening Obama, about someone pointing a gun at him offstage. Look at the video, it was not a joke, it was pre-planned.

The Secret Service needs to investigate this event, and find out if indeed it was planned. If so, it is a CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY.

A Secret Service investigation will demonstrate to any kooky redneck who wants to be Boothian hero that it won't be tolerated. This should not be swept under the rug, we need to insist.

[Hockeydude6689]

Go Obama

[Bubblezbaby91]

OBAMA 08*

[ad0304s]

When you write a comment about one of Barack Obama's official videos and click "Post Comment" it says "COMMENT PENDING APPROVAL." If you write a comment about one of John McCain's official videos and click it, it says "COMMENT POSTED!" I guess Barack only wants me to have a voice for change if he approves it! :(

[dlpd1857]

...and that makes any difference, how ?

[bigwaltrad]

wow. basing your political stance on whether or not barack obamas youtube page approves of it. sad. if anyone has oppressed any of your rights the last 8 years it has been the republican party and this administration...its just said that you cant even see that.

[quisqueya64]

that might just be because most of obamas videos prolly have a higher traffic rate mccains . but hey keep trying to make up b/s reasons for your discontent feelings with him.

[Verified1]

Guess you were wrong.

[hanofsoul]

The very fact that you comment is still here negates the validity of your statement. which makes it -0.

[blinx91]

GO OBAMA FROM FRANCE!!!

Pls American citizens, vote for this good guy!

[JGOETTLE]

Obama/Edwards, 08

[ethiodallas]

obama'o8

[changelingmusic]

alright, edwards! go obama! but seriously, couldn't you have changed that whole "one man..." chant to "one candidate"? not tactful.

[enjtym]

From the struggles of this election Barack will only become stronger and wiser.. just imagine what he can help build for our children and many generations after.. VOTE OBAMA 2008 and 2012!!! HELP US CHANGE THE WORLD

[MelainaShelby]

I hope to God that Obama will pick Edwards as his VP. It would be an amazing team- we WILL get change. But only with Barack Obama.

Obama/Edwards '08

[silversmitty]

eww. what a fence sitter . if he had balls, he would endorse earlier. but no, he jusst wants to be vee pee

[sabotagebeatz]

yeah baby!!!! O E!!!

[slimreb0rn]

Obama

Edwards

'08

[IG2HI]

Originally my pick for a running mate for Obama was Bill Richardson. Being that John Edwards finally came on in and gave his endorsement, this opens up new possibilities for this campaign!

[marugarden]

He sure took his time.  I've been waiting for this since Edwards dropped out of the race. I don't know of anyone else who would better suit the VP position than Senator Edwards. They will probably make the announcement when/if Hillary drops out. Hopefully she will have a place too, maybe Secretary of State at least, or something like that.

[murfy22]

wow, great times. i'm looking so forward to next january!

[jlj27311]

man.....this makes me feel so good about Obama's chances!!!!!!

[resoL486]

Wesley Clark for VP

[Poker115]

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

[madingBor1983]

Obama/ Edwards all the way to white house.

[screenwrita17]

I was there!

[godislove92]

Obama/Edwards 2008!

[mamacal123]

I always said an Obama-Edwards ticket was the ideal ticket! Congrats for the endorsement...

Their combined values, and talents, are a positive direction for America to restore it's spirit.

[bdazzzle]

If the Obama camp was smart, I mean Really smart, they could put Judge Napolitano or Ron Paul in the VP spot and destroy the republicans party and the neocons along with em. Good Luck to Obama

[SirFeaksAlot]

Obama/Edwards

I'm there!

[emra9]

Because of Obama, I(as an European) want to be an American citizen!! You guys are so lucky to have a president like this brilliant man.

I truely believe not only America needs him, but the world needs Obama.

Greetings from The Netherlands, Europe!

[Goatsmen]

He is not the president yet. Thats why the people here need to get off their asses and make this happen.

[abdray]

now this is the john we need in office. as vp of course

[braindeadhick]

Yeah . Obama Edwards

[mamamichelle]

about time john!! edwards VP??

[okiebamaman]

YES

[wonkagb]

Now Your talking Dream Ticket

[naybrig89]

Funny how Edwards waited for an obvious democratic nominee to appear before he announced who he was endorsing.

[eXcommunicate1979]

Edwards would be a poor VP choice. He and Barack are too alike - both young attractive men with "outsider" appeal. What Barack needs to balance the ticket is a long time military man like Jim Webb or Wesley Clark. Either way though, Edwards belongs within Obama's administration. Attorney General or even a Supreme Court pick. Thank you John!

[vigilance77]

Go Johnny boy! Woo hoo! We need a Democrat in the White House who will really change the course we've been on!! I hope Obama does it!

[featuringfranklin]

I bet you Edwards winds up with AG

[FlowJazz]

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH !!!!

[bitchville]

Hahaha.

In your face Hillary CLITon. LOL

[arthurnunn]

Obama/Edwards 2008!

Real Change * Bold Leadership!

[TimmyMartyMooney]

This is what i've been waiting for, the perfect running mate! Obama/Edwards 2009...

life will get better...

[lanidarwin]

I think John Edwards would make a better attorney general. I still think the VP slot should be given to Kathleen Sebelius or Chuck Hagel.

[amazingbaseball]

cant wait to see obama touring all 57 states!

[JGOETTLE]

OBAMA EDWARDS, 2008

not OBAMA HILLARY, 2008

[SDgirl007]

i don't think Edwards would go for it, but i would love nothing more than to see an Obama/Edwards ticket.

[Kewlgamer]

I LOVE this!!! For the first time in comic strip metaphor history, Charlie Brown (John Edwards) has turned the tables on Lucy (Hillary the Tormentor) and, at exactly the right moment, pulled that football away from her field goal attempt, so now she's flat an her ass--where she SHOULD be! "HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!"

[Franck9875]

G'Obama GO, G'Obama GO! Yeaaaaah !!!!!

[shayneinsc]

in other words, "OH PLEASE MR OBAMA MAKE ME YOUR RUNNING MATE"

[3Core]

That took a lonnng time.

[LopezCaro]

Anyone know how many people were there? The crowd looked huge

[petros3090]

woot!

[www13thingscom]

GO OBAMA!!! hey guys check out my video of obama when u can

[AxelQC]

YES WE CAN!!

[lizarddude18]

Yes We Can!

[fastandaccurate2007]

Why do these Candidates spend millions, to get a job that pays $400k a year? I would love to make 400k a year, but i wouldn't spend millions to get that job. Makes no since to me.

[schooltrashers]

Interestingly enough, this happened in my town of all places.

[ptypn]

I LOVE IT!

[ptypn]

Smart people vote OBAMA/EDWARDS '08!

[ptypn]

A new day has arrived!

[ptypn]

A new day has arrived!

[ObamaxGirl2008]

Obama - Edwards 'O8! Yes We Can!

[howbert123]

Farakahn for VP!!!!!!!!!!

[johkonut]

wish edwards was up there too...

[mastercreatorozraka]

YAY!!!

[bpd777]

I hope that Barack Obama chooses John Edwards as his running mate after he beats Hilary.

Obama

Edwards

'08

...It has a good ring...

[adventurousvictor]

Edwards: VP

[mjblock86]

This was amazing. The fire in a typical Republican Grand Rapids was unbelievable! Way to go Obama!

Let's see Obama/Edwards all over signs in this country! We're all ready for change!

[KINGAMUNRe]

OBAMA EDWARDS 2008 now that's a ticket!

[johnnyjohnson]

I would much rather see an Obama/Wesley Clark or an Obama/Ted Stickland ticket; however, one thing I do like about Edwards is that he supports prayer in schools.

[megananne3]

What an electric feeling this was! YES WE CAN!!!!!!! :)

[sexyturnon]

hey... anyone now think that edwards will become obama's vice president?

[Albyiscool]

its funny how john edwards said in this speech "one america instead of two" but was criticized while he ran for president for saying there were two americas

[cinemantics]

That is true, he continues to believe there are "two Americas" and he is hoping that Obama will be able to unite Americans.

FAT CHANCE. The Media will not let that happen. There is no pundit class when there is unity. News media loses viewership. And therefore, money. As corporations, their only interest in making money be exploiting their core competencies. It is in their financial interest to push bitter partisanship through selective sound bytes and carefully crafted headlines.

[iquillabit]

Edwards said that because he was DISSATISFIED about there being two Americas, and this is merely consistent with that understanding. Problem: two Americas (one part gets the promise the other doesn't) Solution: Making one America, where everyone enjoys the freedom of opportunity promised by the constitution.

[SirFeaksAlot]

Exactly!

That's why he believes that Obama can create a more coalesced government and not divide them further.

[verumdicere]

When running for president his "two Americas" comment was referring to the growing economic divide between wealthy and middle class Americans. Here, Edwards is referring to two Americas in a political sense - the idea of growing political polarization between the left and right. Obama has bridged the gap between many Republicans and Democrats (as evidenced by his strong following in many typical republican strongholds); this is what Edwards means by "one America instead of two".

[penismon]

08AMA

[Canuck204]

Your done Hillary, D-O-N-E!

[studio7manga]

About time John, sheesh...

[QueenNewNew923]

I'm wit u on that.

[CueBE]

YES WE WILL. OBAMA in 08! ! !

[BruceWayne]

John Edwards for the VP!

[RedTigerBlood]

I've been waiting to see where Edwards would place his endorsement. I'm glad that once he dropped out, once Kucinich dropped out, I choose Barrack!

[placebo623]

Obama bought Edwards a jetski!

[lorettarosa]

Watched the whole thing on C-Span 3.

Man I felt like I just won the Superball.

Thank you John Edwards, Smart move.

Mr.President Barack Obama

[WestCoastRydazMedia]

awesome!!!

[skeisha10]

OMG!!! I've been waiting on this. I live in Detroit I should've drove my butt up to Grand Rapids

[BruceWayne]

Edwards will make a good VP.I really believe that.

[Freestyler912]

I was right there! It was awesome! Unity for the country!

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!

[DrMichaelRedWood]

Yes sir

[cjeady]

man i form lansing, mi less then an hour from gr i should have been here

[happyfeet12345]

Thank you, thank you, thank you John Edwards!!! I too was originally for JE but moved my vote to Obama becuz the corporate press ignored him & he so GRACIOUSLY bowed out. Now, what we need is this team for 08....Obama/Edwards!!!!! Say it again...OBAMA/EDWARDS!!!!

[Bonnaroo10klmf]

awesome! this is great news!

[luvbug67208]

Thank you John! Obama 08!

[Kflash3782]

Feels like a long touchdown pass to the goal line. YES!!!!!!

ObAmA 08!

"WE ARE THE ONES WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!"

[channa0529]

Obama-Edwards '08 or Obama-Sebelius '08 (either way, a winning ticket)!!

[newyorkfish]

I just watched this on CNN and everyone is going crazy now that John Edwards has endorsed Obama !!

Even Hillary admits it's not about winning, it's about going the distance.

Obama is so lucky to have this endorsement from Edwards.

The road to the white house is here.

Yes we can !!

[hajqbvii]

YIPEEE!!!...been waiting for Edwards to endorse him....Obama/Edwards ticket?....would like to see a republican on the ticket though....No not Hillary! Hagel, someone texted his name on one of the pages and I did like his speech against Bush's national security agenda!...plus it would solidify the unity platform!...oh well...it's certainly going to be interesting....!

[BUJNOST]

I LOVE IT....OBAMAAAAAAAAA

[mujahideenryder]

Finally!

[CircusofPython]

I just read this update on Facebook. I was like "Seriously?!"

Back when Edwards was running, I was supporting them both. Now that Edwards is out, only Obama is left who actually cares about the United States and its people.

Obama '08! Edwards VP!

[petros3090]

read this just now as well.. great news for barack!

[keygbay]

Please post the whole video!

[kazuuka]

Thank you John Edwards!

Obama'08!

[AnunC8]

Going on a few miles from me right now. I wish I could have gone, but he filled the place. They filled more seats than Sting and the Police.

[lexiustia]

Obama-Edwards ticket for '08, how awesome would that be?

[SubmarinerAndroid]

Awesome!

[frankodelic]

YES WE CAN!!!

I was originally for John Edwards, then moved my vote to Obama when Edwards pulled out. Obama is the logical choice, the only choice for President '08!!!

[NorsemanMI]

Same Frank. Started out supporting Edwards but always liked Obama. When Edwards dropped out I was disappointed but shifting over to Obama was an easy choice.

[Jessiaremidorius]

I watched this on CNN not too long ago. Absolutely amazing. ♥

[Lazybum66]

OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! ^_^

[superstardjhotsnow]

THIS IS HUGE.... hillary has to drop out now

[arsenalrc15]

haha yes

this will take the steam out of Hillary's win in West Virginia.

BTW, I would not be proud to heavily win a state in which a minority have a college education. That just means the uneducated are voting for Hillary b/c they do not understand the issues or her solutions; they are just voting for a white woman over a black man.

Obama is for America

Hillary is for HILBILLIES --- HAHAA

[Pott1025]

good post

[boilermc]

How long before the tsunami of SD endorsements hits? I say he'll be the official nominee before Clinton finishes figuring out how to spin the math of this in her favor.

[SLAPPAYURFACE]

Huge.

[infynite706]

Now this is what i'm talking about! OBAMA 08'!!!!!!!!

[AngryPirateProd]

Obama has the nomination locked up! Edwards, I wish you had spoken up sooner, like around Ohio and Pennsylvania would have been nice, but I'm glad you are finally picking Obama's side. Great job! YES WE CAN!

[lopff]

OMG, this is Awesome, Go Edwards! Go Obama!

[tezzgod74]

The snowball rolling downhill just turned into a boulder.... Goodbye Hillary. Democrats UNITE!!!

[superstardjhotsnow]

THIS IS HUGE

[ObamaxGirl2008]

Yay! Thank you John! Obama '08!

[rakrobn]

AWESOME!!!! Hillary give it up IT'S OVER!!!

[gallomex13]

WOW ! just WOW

[NuclearBanana10]

Awesome!

[T4Medicwade]

Obama the great

for 2008

[eXcommunicate1979]

That video brought me chills and to tears. Thank you Edwards!

[hippiechick1967]

YES!!! I am so glad he came out for Barack!!!

[DarthCelticRealGM]

WOW OK

[mrfancypants187]

Well this sure does end the Democratic race.

Obama '08!

[frenchpeacock]

Here we go! I love Edward, but I love Barack 10x more! Obama '08!

PAiX

[Dionne0211]

Alright Obama, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hh!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tevo0001]

Awesome!

[xDiFFERENCEx]

radical.

[infinityofnever]

that is a HUGE crowd. WOW!

[boilermc]

That is a HUGE endorsement. It deserved a HUGE crowd!

[leedime2]

I knew John Edwards endorsed Obama when he was on the news and didn't want to tell. His clue made it obvious. His clue: The person he endorses is a Strong Leader.

OBAMA 08!!!

[andykoom]

Clinton response: John Edwards is a Republican.

[RhodyRam18]

Edwards knows Obama is the best candidate and the rest of the country will follow his lead. Go Obama!

[Superhero18]

Thank you, Senator Edwards. You'll definately have a place in the Obama adminstration. Perhaps as his VP. People doubt you can rally the voters Obama cannot. But you, who has campaigned in much the same way can keep the message alive and stronger. With 2 men who speak it, not one. Yes we can, and we will.

[SimmanFederal]

Wooo!!! awesome

[scarysmartboy]

how great would it be if Senator Edwards ran with Obama for the presidency...

Obama '08

[24LakerGirl]

Yes we can!! The curtains are coming down now, the finish line is fully in sight.

OBAMA '08

[VilliamKK]

YES. Vice prez?

[beyonder12]

Yes!

[end1st]

OBAMA FTW!!

[RoscoePatterson]

Now we're talking! The party is coming together!! Time to come together to defeat McCain!!

[uVote2008]

3 words...It's about time!

[zachkomes]

Thank you John Edwards! Obama '08!!!!

[FeetIncluded]

This was perfect timing. Hillary, you had a great run, but it's time for the democratic party to move forward in order to ensure Change in Washington. Congrats to Obama!

[FrogJon]

Woohoo!!!

Obama Edwards 08'!

[meepthegreat]

Good for John! I knew he would come into the fold.

this is awesome
