  • Hows that doing?

  • Let's look at a few facts here: Nov 06 Dems win control of House and Senate, Pelosi states, "We will bring change and an energy policy that makes sense": Since then, Gas and oil prices have nearly doubled! Obama's plan, Let's inflate our tires more and conserve.....Ummmm we're already doing that....Oh yeah, he wants to tax the oil companies more....last time I checked, taxing a business more leads to them increasing prices: result: higher prices at the pump....Hmmmmmm...Sounds like a winner 2 me

  • high-income entrepreneur would see his or her federal marginal tax rate rise to 53 percent from 37.7 percent," Lindsey wrote in a June 20 Wall Street Journal op-ed column.

    The marginal tax rate is what a person pays on each additional dollar earned. Lindsey wrote that Obama's plans would provide a powerful incentive for the highest-earning Americans to work less, invest less and contribute less to the economy.

  • Oh the good 'ole days of March '08. Wish we were not close to $5.00 per gallon now but according to Gramm crackers and Old Man McBush, Its all in my Head ...

  • obama is great, please check his policies, his the best, mcbush sucks

  • Barack Obama - Ron Paul ticket for President

  • Laughable. Would probably work, but is never going to happen.

  • This great man is acting like He is the President. From his posture, his speeches, his ideas and dreams for America and the World, down to the way He conducts himself, like a great leader should be!! Go Pres. Obama

    why is it that the world is so much rooting for this great man, but yet the americans are so blind to see.???

    O Be Wise

  • Vote for Obama. The fact that he's actually going to get this settled with, alternative sources and whatnot, says he's awesome. Don't believe me? WHY DIDN'T YOU WATCH THE VIDEO?

  • He's our President.

  • obama 4 prez!

  • OBAMA O8

    OBAMA 12

  • wohooooooo!!!

  • Obama should talk about Global Warming.

  • Barack the Vote!!!

  • I liked it. The ad worked for me. :)

  • great Barack Obama

  • I love that! Obama 08'

  • Great Ad Obama!

  • Windfall profits taxes were a stupid policy idea in the 1980's and they're stupid today. All they do is reduce investment, not prices -- and it's the very industry we need investment from now. They raise no money either.

    The only way to bring prices down over the long term is to get more entrepreneurs chase the huge profits. Eliminating those profits through the political process will eliminate that incentive.

    Obama has some good ideas but this isn't one of them.

  • I support Ron Paul because he is altogether a better candidate with so many more solid Constitutional views but I agree with this message. We need to lead the world in technology again and start pioneering technology. Barack I hope you're not lying...

  • Oh man, don't you know the lobbyists and oil companies are going CRAZY right about now. Vote Obama '08!

  • its sounds good. but i dont know if hes just talk

  • BARACK ON POINT VOTE PA

  • OBAMA '08!

  • OBAMA 08

  • I love this man !!

    Obama is our next President !!

  • Cellulosic ethanol Rocks!

  • Go Obama, the world is with you!

  • Google's profit margin is 25% while Exxon's is a mere 10%... no windfall profits tax for them as well?

  • great add

  • Does anyone know what his financial and economic experience has been? I am curious.

  • love it!

  • UK Support Obama!!!

  • We got the technology, lets do this people!

    Obama 2008!

  • What is Obama's position on switching to fuel cell technology? I believe this is the single most important issue facing our country and our world.

    If we are committed and switch over before the end of the next President's term is finished, we will not only see such prosperity as we have never seen before, and we will also be free from the Fossile Fuel countries in a way that Bush's Blunders have not made us.

  • I'm a hardcore conservative but if Obama can lower gas prices then he has my vote.

  • say it like it is! good for Obama

  • how long ago did obama make the comercial?????

  • Just the best

  • AMEN!!!!!!!!!!

    OBAMA 2008!!!

  • go obama

  • Wow I never thought anyone would make a video like this. This is a first.

  • This would mean: No US invasions of countries with oil anymore :)

    Which means no hatred of USA and consequently no terrorism.

    Peace & Harmony for the world.

    Go Obama!

  • And nothing will.

  • AT LAST!

    Let's make America self sustainable and self reliant!

    Oil is just bad news for SO many reasons.

  • Go Obama

  • Talk is cheap, to get things done is harder.

  • He is truly a genius politician. Obama is the first great man of the 21st century already.

  • OBAMA '08

  • nice ad! :)

  • 120 billion is what exxon paid in taxes last year !

  • These oil companies owe us a big obamapology. OBAMA 2008!

  • this guy is perfect...young...and he was a good lawyer.

    obama!!!

  • Obama for the President of United States of America!

    P.S: $Exxon makes 398 billion a year

  • Ill believe it when I see it, but I pray Obama holds to this. You may be surprised at what alternative energy/fuel has been surpressed in the name of profit for oil companies and government taxes.

  • does he have to say his name anymore lol

    OBAMA 08

  • Obama fo' yo' mama!!

    Obama, Obama, OBAMA!!

    Obama 08' baby. :)

  • Very good ad. Obama has this great way of not sounding fake as so many politicians oftend do in their ads.

  • He says "I don't take money from oil companies", and then immediately proposes a "windfall profits" tax which would take money from oil companies.

  • Alright go Obama!!!:)

  • Well said.Great ad.

  • Go Obama!

  • Good dude.

  • to bad "them" are american citizens too.

  • 08 obama

  • 08*AMA!

  • Nice trench coat!

  • obama 08!

  • YAY OBAMA!!!

    I HOPE YOU BECOME OUR PERSIDENT.

    I cant vote yet cause im 16 but if i could i would vote for you!

  • Obama for '08!Please comment on my page.

  • Oh wow !!

    Obama is serious about change.

    The fierce urgency for change is now!!

    Come on Republicans, you can do it.

    Come on Independents, you can do it.

    Come on Clinton supporters, you can do it.

    Make the change - vote for Obama for President of the United States of America and make us proud.

    Yes we can !!

  • AWESOME, for the first time a senator who doesn't sell out and actually stands for something real.

  • Jimmy Carter tried to change. He put solar panels on the White House. Reagan came in and took them all down. Get us back on the right track. Please, Barack make a statement choose Nader as your runnnig mate. That way we are sure "Change" is on its way, also Dennis and Gore would be a good choice. Please don't be just another politician, thats way I'm not going with the Clintons again.

  • It's TIME 4 Change and CHANGE= BARACK OBAMA

  • this guy has cojones.

  • My only special interest is this special candidate!

  • i love how this message actually shows what he can do to change things.

    usually messages doesn't

  • AMEN !

  • one of the best ads yet.

  • Finally some one has pointed at the HUGE ELEPHANT in the room! We've had thirty years to change this. Now is the time vote OBAMA in 08!!!

  • Lifelong Republican Voting Obama .... We Need Change

  • thank you! great ad!

  • It's so interesting to see a candidate speak for himself. Instead of having "Mr. Anouncer Voice" going on and on with "He is a man who...blah blah blah" like the McCain ad does, cherry picking soundbites from McCain's speeches that don't sound senile, Barack Obama addresses himself to the American people in his own voice.

  • Oh man, you guys are filtering comments, huh?

  • 08-ama!!!

  • very simple ad. i likez

  • I hope its true

  • Obama is surging in the poles!

  • Barack- you are a once in a generation candidate. It would be a crime to elect someone else.

  • Great ad, good message. I'm sick of corporations making insane amounts of money then using it to lobby their agendas while cutting pensions and healthcare plans.

  • This is such a great advert.. Obama needs to make more like this.

  • Yes! Go Obama.

  • great ad. he looks at home, at ease. Just what America needs right now.

  • Right on, Barack.

  • I DO agree that oil companies ARE bandits...

  • very good ad. i love it.

  • How is he going to create 5 million jobs? And why did he put that into a message about oil costs and special interests?

  • GOOOOOOOOOOO OBAMA!

  • wow go obama 2008. Obama Barocks! : )

  • If obama does take punitive action against profits of the oil industry won't gas prices just go up to recoup the costs of that government action ?

  • AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMENNN!

  • I'm a grown man... and yet my eyes swell with tears. Incredible!

  • Nationalize oil companies! I want them out of business!

  • OBAMA!

  • Wow

  • When Barack gets to be elected, we need to stay togther and organized and make sure we are behind him in his crusade to change America and we need to be seeing who is standing in the way of the people and decampaign them!

  • You've got my vote.

  • Obama 08

  • Thas the best add...wow

  • "Its time washington work for you, not them"

    nice..

  • BARACK is my homie!

  • Even republicans want Obama to win.

  • Blaming both Democrats and Republicans for all talk and no action. Good move Obama!

  • God bless you Barack for saying that.

  • Great message!!! I completely agree!

  • Define windfall profits. Sounds like its a tax on successful business practice to punish the "evil" big oil. If so then what industry will be next?

  • Speculation in the oil markets is responsible for a third of the price of gasoline, so ending the Iraq War will also help.

  • omg i just orgasmed

  • You go Obama

  • TELL YO MOMMA ITS OBAMA!

  • Republicans for a smarter future. Republicans For Obama

  • Barack! Barack!

  • obama you need to know that the whole world is behind you

  • Very good ad. Direct and to the point on the economy!

  • I love this man! I hate special interests!

  • Damn right!

  • God Bless you sir..you have my vote!

  • "This time Washington works for YOU not THEM!" - President Barack Obama(inauguration adress)

    ...I see that time coming very soon.

  • barack obama is the change america needs

  • Yes We Can! Way to go, Barack, I am all for this! Now let's give a federal tax break for everyone who wants to put a solar panel on a roof or for everyone who wants to invest in alternative energy!

  • believe on obama (god bless)

  • GO OBAMA - ENGLAND SUPPORTS YOU!!!

  • Show em your tuff too bro!

  • Go BARACK !!

  • Damn Straight!!! GO~BAMA '08!

  • This is good.

  • I approve this message, too! Obama '08

  • Not mentioning Clinton is a wise choice. Focus on the big picture, and don't attack- people can find out for themselves that Clinton does indeed accept money from lobbyists, after Obama informs them that he does not.
