  • Cory Booker for President!

  • lol!!!

  • hahhhahahh!!

  • This is great, good too see politcos with a sense of humor

  • Hey, give Booker credit that he at least had a sense of humor and played along

  • 0:38 to 0:41 is fake but it's the best part

  • Super, Cory!

  • LMFAO THAT WAS FUNNY

  • Cory Booker has more followers on Twitter than does Conan O'Brien.

  • i cant tell if this is a joke or not. someone help/?

  • It is a joke.

    See the Conan episode 2009.10.16

  • @hamoonmehran you serious?

  • @hamoonmehran you serious?

  • @hamoonmehran no shit it's a joke

  • 0:40 Yepp... record reduction in violent crime...

  • freakin mayor booker this guy is pimp!

    hes got a good sense of humor

  • Here's your chance Mayor Booker - invite Conan to Newark and make him an honorary Deputy Mayor and Director of Newark Cultural Affairs, he could perform live shows for Newark's residents. It'll bring people from all around and build publicity for himself. It's a win-win situation =D

    Eh, it doesn't hurt to dream right? ; )

  • lol this seems so fake

  • idiot...instead of keeping him away...he should have invited him to do a tour/comedy bit in newark to show people the city...

  • u dear sir are the idiot. instead of making stupid comment YOU should have understood this was a joke.

  • Who's this guy?

  • whaat

  • lol

  • For me, it looks more like a chance of free publicity for Mr. Mayor.

  • no one important lives in jersey jeez my mother kived there when she was young got the hell out of there as soon as she could and tells people she grew up in ny

  • Im with coco!

  • I SUPPORT BOOKER ( and am not even from the US) nah but for real he seems like a guy who dont stand by while his city is being mocked, ,,,GOOD on him

    CITY SHOULD BE PROUD OF A MAYOR LIKE THAT

    !!

  • Boycott NBC!!! Boycott the Golden Globes!

    Spread the word.

    Go TEAM CONAN

  • Conan dissin Newark? And now his ratings are slipping.. Hmmmm, Karma. Go back to Brookline..

  • a Bus Ticket out of Newark! ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

  • awesome

  • A good documentary is out there... called Street Fight. I'm sure anyone familiar with Newark has seen it. Damn that old mayor was a scumbag. A run of the mill crook. Good on the underdog winning.

  • Conan's show is good. funny dude.. but yea I hate when people take shots at nwk. we get enough low blows.. why pick on us.. I remember when I went to a wrestling event in Prudential Center and the WWE wrestler said all sewers lead to Newark. and got at cory.. I know it is part of the show and to get the audience to get involved and boo him but I took it personal lol. newark is good it is bad but its my city and im proud of it. Conan on the no fly list lol doesnt he look like a cartoon character

  • your absolutely right! BOOKER!! so happy he came in...unfortunately i left. but wen i visit i defiantly feel the change :)

  • I enjoy Conan's show, and this argument has been funny, but i'm glad its over.

  • That was pretty funny.

  • "Try JFK, buddy>"

    I LOL'd!

  • lol i was just about to post that..but you beat me 2 it : )

  • After seeing this mayor on Conan yesterday - This city should proud of this mayor! I laughed soooo much between these two guys the past week or two. Great job!

  • absolute genius - newark really needed a cory booker!

  • The phrase " by the powers invested in me" is perhaps a Freudian slip!

  • lol yeah Obrien eat that! Excellent!

  • this guy is great. i like him even more after having seen him on conan. i wish our mayor had a sense of humor like that.

  • This guy is great for a mayor, but for mayor of Newark he is a godsend. The history of Newark mayors is as bad as politics get. Booker seems like he's geuine and really wants to help his community, not like the last mayor, Sharpe James. Google that scumbag.

  • Only mayor who was worse than James was the former mayor of my home city, DC. Google Marion Barry... now that dude was a fucking idiot.

  • This is funny the mayor is on Conan's show right now and the two are having a great time. All in good fun, things like this should happen more often.

  • It's all a joke. Who said people in politics don't have a sense of humor?

  • Yea, Conan donated 50,000 to his charity and NBC matched it.

  • mayor booker gonna appear on conan show!?? awesome!!

  • I love Newark and I love Mayor Cory Booker. He's a true hero and an inspiration to mayors of smaller cities around the nation. He believes in Newark and its people - so do I. The fact that he has such a great sense of humor and perspective is just the icing on the cake. God bless Mayor Booker and God bless Newark too.

  • lol i love that the mayor of Elizabeth told Conan since Terminal A is in Elizabeth, he's going to rename it the Conan O'Brien terminal

  • Lol this has to be a joke.

    Plus last week they showed a message from Hillary saying to stop the fight.

    Conan is awesome :D

  • HAHA! I love the acting of the other guy that had to be restrained for his deep love of Newark. C'mon guys don't rate this video down, it's good fun.

  • :40 sec, fake... lol but it's funny though... cool mayor if i may say so myself

  • Poor Conan. He should blame Lebomba

  • Nice to see this congenial banter.

  • LOL Clinton ended the feud!??!!!

  • wait, is this whole thing a joke?

    PLEASE REPLY

  • No they are having fun but this is seriouse they are argueing but it is nothing seriouse they are having fun.

  • Yes, there's not hatred between the two. This feud is publicity between Conan O'Brien and Cory Booker, much like the previous feud involving Colbert and Stewart. Between the original YouTube posts by Cory and Conan's reactions on his show, it's clearly all in good fun.

  • Top-of-the-line humour right there

  • Your playing with fire Booker. You don't mess with the Cone Bone.

  • this whole thing has to be a joke.

  • Sharp as butter

  • I like the way Conan and Cory have gone after each other in their battle of wits. I suggest that they battle it out in a chess match during a live "Saturday Night Live" show.  They can throw insults at each other only when they have captured an opposing piece. Great sense of humor from both Cory and Conan.

  • a chess match?!! or you serious? WOW!!!!!!!!

  • too funny.

  • I havent stopped laffing since read the story on cnn.

    Deep long happy laffs.

    I applaud both these men for their spirited campaigns, sense of duty, love of comedy, need for everyone everywhere to have a good belly laff and willing to bare their hearts in truth and jest.

    Begone stuffy shadowy politics.

    This kinda ambiance can change the world.

  • hahahaha this is great! Mayor Booker has a great sense of humor -- great act

  • NBC sign up the mayor!

  • CONAN IS AWeSOME

  • The joke was hilarious!

    BUT

    This is great I love the points that the Mayor has made and the way he did it.

    The message behind the 'battle' is productive.

    I just learned a few things about Newark.

    But Conan you're always welcome to O'hare international!

  • GO CONAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • go coco!

  • You go coco lol

  • i know its a joke, but still...

    GET IT CONAN!!

    ~Los Angeles

  • GO Conan! Chicago supports Conan! I think Conan should send Conando to Newark. That would be funny. Conan going under cover as Conando to get thru security at the airports lol.

  • lol... he should have made that joke 10 years ago

  • CoCo CoCo

  • I thought the feud was real when I saw the clip on The Tonight Show, but after watching the full version, I'm sure it's an act. Just watch from 0:35 to 0:45. Bad acting.

    Conan makes fun of New Jersey in general all the time, so why the outrage now? Is it because he never made fun of Newark specifically, and Mayor Booker took the joke seriously? This whole feud is a joke at least, and a publicity stunt at most.

  • It is an act. Cory booker even says so on his latest vid.

  • Move over King Kong and Godzilla! There is a NEW epic battle to end all battles! Late night legend Conan "cone zone" O Brian VS Mayor Cory "wing clipper" Booker! Lol! Go Conan!!!

  • hilarious. can't wait to see how this turns out!

  • if anybody thinks this is real, they better have their head examined. can't wait to see where this will go

  • LMAO!! he got baned from airport, well connans fired back again, uh oh~

  • Conan responded to this!! it was one funny episode!!! Especially the governor arnold part HAHA!! that was their latest episode!! as of oct 3, 2009

  • Conan ROCKS!!!

  • CONAN CONAN CONAN CONAN CONAN.

  • This is the BEST comedy skit that the Tonight Show has ever pulled since it first went on the air with Conan. I love all the Conan episodes of the Tonight Show, but this I think is even beyond the old Late Night hilarity.

  • Go Conan!!

  • lmao this is awesome. its all ajoke though

  • Now this is how you get some viewers interested, I cant wait to see what happens on monday!

    When will they say this was all a joke?

  • you mean this isnt a real fued? Conan's not really banned?

  • Conan has hit back at him.

    Conan made fun of Newark again on Friday.

    Conan started insulting Newark first.

  • Great play, I think Mayor Booker and Conan orchestrated this. Eventually Booker will end up on the tonight show and his ratings would go off the roof.......As long as the Newark will benefit from this it's all good. And Mayor Booker looks like he's a genuine guy!!!! Go Newark!!! Go LA!!!! Go O'Brien!!!!

  • try jfk buddy

  • This is hilarious. My father told me conan and booker had been conjuring this for a while. This is just classic humor!!!!

  • THIS IS SO FUNNY!!!

  • is this a stunt? lol its so funny.

  • im digging the joke

  • Wow you guys--- I love Conan--- but I know that this is completely fake... seriously. Maybe Cory should take acting lessons in Hollywood.

  • LMAO

  • I enjoyed it Mayor defends his town while sort of getting a bit of humor/publicity in.

  • i thought this was way more serious on conans show... im pretty sure its just a ratings thing now

  • wtf!!!!!!!!!!

  • I hope the mayor sees Conan's show tonight.

  • Funny!

  • LOL on conan now!!!

  • lol i love this

  • Is it me, or has every comment praising Newark been given thumbs down across all of these videos relating to this topic?

    It's a Conspiracy, and Conan's Minions are responsible! Pressin' F5 all night long! :D

  • A mayor with a sense of humor.

  • who's conan o' brian?

  • "nah what'd he say" lol classic

  • BURN!

  • hahah you meet me by the hawt dawg stand on the jersey shore hahah

  • Obviously he's a fan of Conan's, or he wouldn't have seen this

  • Oh give me a break..... The people that were "shocked" to learn that were such terrible actors, and come on :41 so fake..

  • iS IT EVEN POSSIBLE TO BAN someone from a state, r is this just a big joke?

  • i think that's the best Conan joke ever, it does hold some truth to it too

  • Its about time somebody started standing up for the State of New Jersey. You guys have been a Conan O' Brian late night joke for what has seem to be forever.

    Now only if Kristy Ally could do the same.

  • Go GO newark!!!

  • lol, that's pretty good. The part Conan showed on the tonight show made it look serious, but this is pretty funny,

  • I hope Cory Book er goes on Conan's how. I think it would be great!! =]

  • That is really smart to do. Fun, maybe seems superficial and irrelevant but it gives your city some attention and an opportunity to point out the reasons why people are proud to live there. Interesting way to go about it. Doesn't hurt to booster Booker's national profile either. :)

  • this is hilarious!!!

  • hahahahaha

  • lol this is going to be great

  • lol this is all so great

  • Conan don't mess with Booker!!! He'll BOOK YOUR ASS BACK TO L.A. on a greyhound BUS you stupid GINGER!!!

  • CoCo a No Go for BoBo?

  • LMFAOOOO! sdws17. Funny shit =D

  • How come so many mayors have shaved heads?

  • This has to be a collaboration between Conan and Cory. The guy in the hallway gives it away. Hilarious on both ends.

  • This has to be a collaboration between Conan and Cory, the guy in the hallway gives it away. Hilarious on both ends.

  • Conan's response....

    "I wished I would of made that joke 15 years earlier."

    Oh...... BURN!

  • it is good to see a mayor with a sense of humor

  • I'm pretty sure that this is a joke.

  • conan IS the man

  • This is why I love Cory Booker

  • apparently some of you did not watch conan last wednesday. His response to the mayors response was hilarious ! conan completely owned him haha. i applaud the mayors humor though

  • I hope that Mayor Booker goes on Conan and gives him a piece of his mind face to face.

  • POOR COCO :)

  • Good sense of humor from the Mayor. Wish all politicians could tone it down on both sides.

  • The healthcare prog. in Newark would consist of a bus ticket out of Newark!!! Haha ha ha ha LMFAO!!!!!

  • Conan is so funny lol

  • Nice job Mayor Booker!

  • Your Busted Conan

  • good for him!

  • LOL! Atta boy, Cory!

    Don't forget to raise the fines against freakishly tall redheads within Newark city limits.

    Seriously now, I love your sense of humor :-)

  • Yeah, call it the "Ginger Tax."

  • this guy is the man...he has balls.

  • this guy is the fuckin man. defending NJ, defending newark, and putting conan in his place. Obviously Conan and his staff are going to find the most ghetto pictures and put them on the air to represent newark. the mayor of newark could do the same thing by finding ghetto pictures of L.A. or burbank or wherever the show is taped....very predictable rebuttle from conan....but this is a great way to make NJ more popular I guess.

  • Dude New Jersey gets a bad rap! Good for you for standing up for your town! The best thing to come out of the New Jersey State in a while is that FEEDING HARRY movie..if you didnt see it check it out i know youtube has a trailer at least..I think we should start a GIVENJSOMESLACK Club

  • KUDOS using Conan's joke to advertise the City of Newark. Let's see if this becomes an ongoing creative banter - which means more advertising for New Jersey.

    Bet Conan will come up with a funny rebuttal. Bring it!

  • He did come up with a rebuttal. I forgot which show, but among other things, he pointed out that Booker cannot ban Conan from Newark because part of the airport isn't in Newark, or even the same county. That and he can just navigate the sewer system since all sewers lead to Newark. Classic.

  • that was last night

  • Conan for the win.

  • Conan pretty much owned him last night.

  • I really think there are more important things that need to be done than to make internet videos. I just can't wait to see how this unfolds. Conan is a comic genius and I can't wait to see what else he has in store. Also, in order to have a beer-gate with the President, you need to have him first state his opinion on the matter....

  • HAHA, Come to Burbank Now!!!

  • I love your sense of humor Mayor ... Go get em!!! Funny thing is, you'll be in office a LOT longer than Conan will be on at 11:30pm on NBC. Just remeber, he who laughs last, last best my friend. :-)

  • You do realize Conan has been loved by millions for over 16 years, right?

  • you shouldnt take it that way, this is a obviously joke between the two, Conan has done things like this before, he is brilliant

  • LOL

  • Please tell me this is a joke

  • Go get him, Cory! Love what you've done since getting into office!

    PS. any way we can get the Kreuger-Scott mansion finished?

  • Good for you Corry

  • Love me some Cory Booker!

  • FYI Letterman has made Newark jokes too....

  • Funny as hell!

  • what a joke he has nothing better to do than try to get back at conan ha...how about you worry about things that matter

  • tell him what we think of him! that's right!

  • Cory Booker for NJ Governor!!

  • Conan O'Brien for NJ Governor!!

  • Haha, love that he has a sense of humor about it.

  • this has to be a joke

    actors

  • Good to see a politician with a sense of humor!

  • 60,000 views, definitely a jump from his normal 400 or less (or a few hundred more)...point is..great Mktg. stunt and it's worked.

  • "Try JFK, Buddy." That was funny.

  • Where's Newark?
