Barack Obama BBQ in Eau Claire, Wisconsin

[drumbunny]

Yet again, Eau Claire/Dunn County become swing districts. I used to live there, but left after the last election. I hope they have foresight to vote for Obama.

[b991228]

Obama/Biden is on message and rolling. From the time I first got on board this campaign I have always been impressed with Senator Obama's knowledge of the facts and clear focus on what is needed to solve our problems. We have lived with an ideology that that is dismissive of facts long enough. It's time for change.

[politicalfarce]

Obama sounded so confident and at home in this clip.

Seriously. Amazing.

[camipco]

The gorgeous girl in the blue and green swirly shirt with the curly hair? That's my wife.

I'm with the goatee and the shades.

So exciting!

Seriously, everyone needs to volunteer for the campaign and work like crazy. We can't afford to lose this one.

[rossde]

I live in Eau Claire, and was REALLY disappointed that this was an invitation-only event. (probably security or something)

But I'm glad he chose Biden.

[GramaBD]

I am a straight up democrat and I have to say Obama/Biden is one of the strongest tickets I have seen since JFK/LBJ - God Bless Obama/Biden and may they be the men I believe they are!

[N8Ma]

Thanks for your comment! Amen to that!

[EntertheBlackDragon]

You tell those people Obama, tell it like it is!! God I love being a democrat. We need change in this country so bad. Home foreclosure, job loss, war, high gas prices, yeah a no brainer, we need Obama to put this country back on the right track!!

Obama/Biden '08

[BluePirate55]

This was a very good choice by the Obama campaign. Biden has the experience, has a good stance on foreign policy, is a good debater, has a good history, and doesn't take shit. As an environmentalist, I'm proud to support Obama and his dream for this country.

[teige21]

YAY RIGHT CHOICE FOR THE COUNTRY and if i could vote i would.... if i was born one year earlier i just be able to vote

[cleo1994]

But you're old enough to help him get elected.

[assassin216]

if anyone who doubt obama is a moron.he can speak very well, he seem to know what he's talking about and very smart

[pmurf06]

i see a lot of FDR (the greatest president the USA has ever had) in him. i think that makes mccain Hoover

[2pacfan]

Great speech liked how he compared his tax plan to John McSame's. Cant wait to hear his acceptance speech.

OBAMA/BIDEN '08

[TempestDust]

For God's sake and for the good of the whole world, vote for him!!!

[Novinte]

John Mccain was caught for being DUMB!! How come does that makes him an hero?

[shewolf65]

Fantastic, a great video

[supermike2164]

One young man is on his way up

the other old man is on his way out

American make the right choice

Obama 08!!!

[mikdams]

obama rocks! he's an amazing public speaker and he has a vision for america. mcsame has nothing and that's why he keeps running negative false attacks against obama. OBAMA 08

[Gonzomoe8]

Yes he's a funny guy in this one. I love it!

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

[Omidia]

I wish I was American to be eligible to vote for him! Hope enough people start to realize that he's what America is in dire need of!

Obama/Biden 2008!

[JohnDeBunkTest]

pssst Barack, be sure to get lots of sleep each night, you were looking a bit tired in this speech (sorry kids).

But it was still a good day and a good speech.

[chitownalphamale]

O'BIDEN. . . Yes we can!

[pbhs07]

He is finally talking tough on Mccain. He needs to keep this up until election day. The choice is clear this election. The status quo or a real change from the bush policies. Four more years in Iraq or a "staged withdraw." The environment, health care, education, the issues go on and on. Go Obama - Biden!!!

[teeftaller7]

I can't wait to see obama/biden win it will be awesome. I think biden will do a better job then edwards did for kerry or lieberman did for gore. Im rigster to vote i did it before i grad high school in may of 07. So all the young people rigster to vote so we can help obama win.

[eddievanpagebarret99]

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

[truthoverlies45]

see this is what barack needs to do just keep it based on facts! i like how he made it so clear and easy to understand

[napzman76]

Awesome, hes funny, reality check, nice guy.

O'America O'Vote O'Bama O'Biden O'8.

[RadioheadTour2008]

Can I post whatever I want here?

[pkenans]

awsome

[MountOlivet]

Obama really understands what the country is going through with its economy and he has a relatively although not the best understanding of foreign policy and Biden will really help Obama get some more credibility on foreign policy and Biden is in tune with the economy. Obama is what our country needs. If McCain is elected nothing will get better with the economy, the war in Afghanistan will go down the toilet, and the Iraq war will wear on for a very long time. Obama '08!

[Eaacker]

Go UWEC, GO OBAMA!

[justsumdude899]

I can't wait for the convention, and I can't wait to vote for our next president, Barack Obama.

[baronmorris]

a very personable speech. This has got to be the most soft-spoken and casual I have seen Obama. I wonder if he's shifting all the way to good cop mode, and then let Biden be the "bad" cop. I rather like that dynamic.

Peace to ALL.

OBAMA 08! & WE CAN'T WAIT!!

[mmante]

5 million a year and above = Rich

4 million a year is middle class

2 million a year is lower middle class and

1 million a year is minimum wage in America..

>>>>

That is John McCain's little fantasy world.

[geo222]

Great speech in Eau Claire Wis.

[ELCaNGRi773]

u better win man.. im leavin to the military in december.. and theres no way ima be workn for mccain.. u better do wat u gotta do and win.. obama 08 baby!

[codingkriggs]

This video should go viral. It is an excellent speech, one of the best I've seen of Obama in months, and he really connects with this audience in a very sincere way.

[wayoftheninja1987]

great video Obama/Biden 08

[yoursaxman]

yes!

[AngeVinther]

Like I said before, "I.CANNOT.WAIT."

[stillcool]

I so hope the American people are better than how the media is portraying us. You would think all we do is hate.

[frenchman47]

Just a 'regular guy' 'like me' except that folks 'like me' couldn't go see Obama at Rod & Gun - 350 people and by Invitation Only. Yup, I feel better about Obama already..........gee isn't that what Bush did in 2000 and 2004 - only allow people to attend your events if they're already 'in your pocket.' My sister lives 2 blocks from the park but she couldn't attend - wasn't 'invited.'

[aknightofswords]

Maybe just a little forethought before saying something like that. Maybe there was room (food) for 350, so the invites went to the local grassroots supporters. Those people behind Barack don't look like big oil or whoever. Look like everyday people. The average man and woman. Maybe your right. Maybe he is in their pocket

[teeftaller7]

Thats so bull crap i was invited & i went & got in it was at my local high school. People this guys is from the mccain campagin.

[BigPostal]

I dont know about your situation but he came to Downingtown, Pa and was very gracious shook hands and spoke to people about real issues.

[Ambushofblacks]

your crying cuz your sister couldnt go see him, wow invite only, soo? he dosent want a bunch of hecklers at his convention, and you sound stupid if their already in his pocket then he would want to invite newer people in also...instead of discluding people like your " sisteR"

[unchainedmelody67]

Obama is so obviously the right choice for this time. I hope some people hear what he had to say in this video.

[lildwayne21]

It doesn't matter how many times you try to repackage Mccain. Obama is right. He represents the same old shit that we've been putting up for four years.

[DTMTroy]

obama's hilarious in this one love him.

[MountOlivet]

yeah it's great to see that he has a sense of humor.

[jsrf3000]

A really great speech!

[drtooty5]

great! he seemed very comfortable and I always love hearing him speak...he is never boring like McSame!

[photoshopmama]

Finally, a candidate that CAN lead the country. Finally, a candidate that knows and articulates intelligently, truthfully, compassionately, and sensibly. Finally a candidate that has INSPIRED millions to get off their butts and get involved...this is the key dynamic that will bring about Change...it's us collectively, more than Obama sigularly! Obama has the gift to inspire us and listen to us! He is without any doubt the President. How refreshing!

[ohytr55]

What a great great man OBAMA 08

[kametica]

good job vote for change

[undeadnow]

awsome
