  • I'm about to unblock many of the comments I've been receiving so visitors to this song's page can witness the hate I've been filtering from the site. I've decided now that the song can better be viewed in this new context so that his supporters can see the racism that has crippled his efforts to make our world a safer, saner, more humane place. Ironic isn't it that these same haters are the ones he continues to try to reason with.

  • IDIOTS VOTING FOR IDIOT

    POOR AMERICA

  • Obama in the end is a farce and a liar he is nothing but another war mongering neocon tool and many like me regret voting for him.

  • FUCK YOU USA...!!!

  • Wow, I haven't seen this kind of brilliance in marketing since Scientology!

  • This video/song moves me every time I watch it. It's a perfect description of the qualities of calm and focus with which our President leads us, inspiring and instilling in us hope, confidence and promise for a brighter futurewe are on our way to that better place now, thanks to him.

  • The fate of the world is in this man's hands.

  • and we're all screwed...

  • If you love this country drop your party alignment and pray for him.

  • we have been screwed,things couldnt have gotten much worse thanks to bush,but atleast now things are geting better each day with this man in the seat,i feel safe & proud to be American =)

  • Being a Ron Paul supporter, I don't agree with many of Obama's plans. However, I wish him the best in the next four years. He's gonna need it, being in the mess that we are.

  • you get a thumbs up for that...Thanks for being such a great American in a time of such cynicism

  • If you like that video you would love that just release Music Video entitled "CHANGE" by Jonathan Laurince. This is one of the most enecouraging, uplifting message that people of all walks of life need to hear in this time of Change in America. Please checck it out and leave your comments. Thank you!  JL Music Productions

  • Let's change the world, Barack. Peace deserves a better chance!

  • Absolutely love this song and the video. Great job!! Be sure to check out my revised vid "Change Has Come - Dreams Do Come True."

  • This song is AMAZING!

  • This song can be downloaded by going to the afleishman channel (click above) and then clicking on "Buy Tickets" in the "Download Obama/ Yes We Can Song" under Event Dates. It sounds incredible on your iPod or sound system. Here's to a new America!

    Thanks for your support

  • change, change.... my ass we now are going to have a third clinton administration!!!!! fucking liar, I hope all you barrybots are happy with what you have done to this country!!

  • Yes. Yes we are. You betcha.

  • shut the fuck up you hillbilly bitch boy. Obama has surrounded himself with people who can bring massive CHANGES in POLICY, EFFECTIVLY AND QUICKLY. the DOW didnt jump big time the other day because there was a new face being hinted as Treasury sec...but because there was an experienced person being hinted for the role. get some common sense or you will be left behind in the dustbin of history.

  • by the way clinton was great :)

  • your right, he lied just like anyone else to get into office. I'm pretty sure he wont do shit for us (americans) unless its in his best interest. It will be a shame to those folks who voted thinking their lives will change because of him. Plan for the worst, hope for the best.

  • learjetflyboy, I could be wrong, but I think Obama really does care about the people and will do everything he can to help us all.

  • God allll your politics wadting your time on a fucking website, I mean really? If your gonna complain on here don't be a lazy ass, go out into the public and complain, what are the people one the internet gonna do for the next 3 monthes? Yes, thats right, complain and Obama and McCain. So if your ANY one of those people get your ass out into the public and do something about it.

  • you are smart, how about proof reading your post before you claim to know everything about everything, you try to make a point but look like a retard because you couldn't pass 4th grade english.

  • I freakin love this man

  • Man this is like a dream! I have a president of color who's name is Barack Obama! It's not about a race thing but we made it! All day.

  • HOPE IS BORN AGAIN!

  • We made it!!!

    Obama 08"

  • I have never had so much hope!

  • Congrats America!!

  • obama/biden 08 :)

  • This is great!!! Obama is showing us an important message, we all need to take responsibility for one another. When we are doing good so should our neighbor, We are our brother and sisters keeper. This is the new American fundamentals. No HES NOT GOING TO DO IT, BUT WE AS AMERICANS WILL!! OBAMA 08

  • O- OUR

    B- BELIEFS

    A- ALWAYS

    M- MADE

    A- A DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

    Americans of all races finally took a stand .I have never shed so many tears for any election like I have for this one.I mean we have been blessed to witness one of the most greatest moments in our history,if not the greatest. And why is that, because we made the difference!!

  • Our U.S. Marines made a bigger difference. The crimson red color of the shed blood of the men who have died for this country speaks louder than any hip hop rhetoric of cowards. Semper fi! Hoo Rah!

  • Nadia I like that ! OBAMA!

  • The assumption that most people don't work hard for themselves, think independently, and self-govern is insulting. Otherwise, we'd be in total chaos. People in general are better than that.

    It's not too much to want a leader to inspire us. Not too much to want to trust our president, or to want him to be a good person. who helped a government that worked better to help people (i.e. Katrina).

  • O--Yeah! Yes we Can! Go Blue!

  • It really scarres me to think that this nation would elect another of the same four years. We have a huge opprotunity for change RIGHT IN FRONT OF US, I don't even want to imagine what this nation would be like with another president like Bush.

    OBAMA BIDEN ´2008

  • I like this....calm cool and it shows love...Obama is so necessary!

  • Its good to see the Democrat Party running such a positive campaign unlike the Republicans who resort to calling Obama names, like playground politics!

  • I'm going to concur, though I wouldn't judge Obama for better or worse on the basis of a fan-made music video. In this election, I am inclined to see him as the better choice, but it is a little bit disturbing to see these kinds of lyrics applied to him, and to see so many people enjoy the connection. There is no easy, quick fix, and government will never save you or make it all better, much less just one man in one branch of an extremely complex system of government.

  • I think osusannarosen above answered well enough.

    You do not understand the power of the presidency.

    Read your history. Presidents set the tone of their years in office, they set a direction.

    They also have the unique ability to call the citizens of the US to do great things, to unite us.

    Our past presidents that are popular arent so because of the power they wield but because of how they inspired the people of their times.

    Oh, and nobody thinks as simply as you make out in your last lines.

  • Vote for Obama, please go to the voting stations and vote.

  • My family loves you Obama...from Utah with all our love. Fernandez family.

  • GERMANY wants Obama, even my MAMA wants Obama! :-)

  • Excellant pictures and great lyrics. YES WE CAN! GO OBAMA!!!!

  • Obama! From England

  • Obama's the BEST...from Georgia

    turing GEORGIA BLUE!!!

  • Outstanding song+Best Obama pix=GREAT VIDEO! :D

  • VOTE FOR OBAMA!

  • Heck even the British Isles wants OBAMA!

  • Does McCain have any music video's out - LOL! Obama all the way baby!

  • I'll follow him all the way!! Go Obama! I love the song too!

    WE ARE READY 4 CHANGE!! Get out and VOTE!!

  • thanks for putting this up. I really think it's going to happen, as McCain is scaring people with his wacky decisions.

  • From Ireland ...

    OBAMA, for a better America...

  • Lets keep singing for postive change ...

    We CAN make a difference with Obama...

    YES WE CAN!!!! Belive and VOTE Obama!!!!

  • yes,well done,nice pics & music,just let's keep our fingers crossed for Obama! wishing him all the luck,everything is possible,yes we can

  • This song can be downloaded by going to the afleishman channel (click above) and then clicking on "Buy Tickets" in the "Download Obama/ Yes We Can Song" under Event Dates. Proceeds will go to the Obama campaign. It sounds incredible on your iPod or sound system.

    Thanks for your support

  • Yes We Can !! Don't are trying to fake everybody out ..we all have to not assume that our vote won't count ...Go vote in November !

  • Obama/Biden!!! YES!WE!CAN!

  • I really like that song!

    Obama '08

  • OBAMA ALL THE WAY!

  • I have a dream

  • Another amazing tribute to a real HERO! :)

  • Change, as Obama has said, depends on us; he can not do it alone. That means if we want change, as a movement we call, write, & email all the senators and representatives together as one to make sure our voices are heard. Never in history has the strength of a movement had the potential to be so powerful. He has motivated a nation to believe once again in a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Three words to drown out the cynics ...

    Yes We Can!

    Together.

    Obama 08

  • We need to all help to make this change possible and not give up because the "experts" say he won't win I know I will be voting for Barack Obama. "They" are wrong he does have a chance. Urge everyone to "Barack the vote"

  • Thats what I'm talking about Rachel..... let's go change the world .....Obama08 & 12

  • Pimp-Tight Song! I was really feeling it and Obama is da man!! Obama08!!

    I have a Obama vid that ya'll might like too...its like a remix.

  • Hillary/Lieberman 08

    The independent ticket. Now that's real change you can take to the bank.

  • Caucus states are not new! Bill 1992 & 1996 had to win them! now he is going around telling ppl they are undemocratic! as a party leader for 16 years what has he done to fix it?

    FL & MI they signed agreements, they will not count!Obama did agree for re-count as longs as everybody gets to participate but Hillary want it closed only for DEMs!

    Obama refused!they went to court & she lost!OBAMA needs to hit back by asking the official papers to be released!& will be seated when it is over & done!

  • That's beautiful!

  • Barack Obama was an early opponent of the war in Iraq after the 9/11 attacks. Obama was a State Senator in Illinois when he spoke against a resolution authorizing the use of force against Iraq during a rally at Chicago's Federal Plaza in October 2002. Obama went on to say, "I am not opposed to all wars. I'm opposed to dumb wars." Obama showed impeccable "courage and leadership" in taking a stand against the war at a time when many within his own Party bowed to popular political demand.

  • Guilt by association?

    face it their is 2/black America those who grew up in the 60's and Personally Experienced Segregation and Racism: & those of us who understand their anger but Lucky not to have the worst experience!

    it's like having an uncle that says the wrong things!but OBAMA gets his frustration!

    but this time Wright took the stage for 4 days and he will not get off! so Obama had no chose

    ARE YOU YOUR FATHER, MOTHER, etc.?do you believe every thing they believe?

    STAND UP be counted!

  • Yes We Can have the politicians working for the tax paying citizens of america again, lets get our friends together and support Barack Obama the one who will unite

  • YES WE CAN!

  • YES WE CAN!!! VOTE Barack Obama for PRESIDENT in '08!

  • Bob Barr is a Black Politician from Georgia who has been around a long time. I wonder if Hannity is going to play the "race card" on Barr!

  • I wish Michiganians and Floridians would look to the DNC and their own state party leaders to figure this out fairly. Michigan and Florida should be treated the same as any other state. If both candidates were allowed equal opportunity to campaign in those states leading up to their primaries then that would be fair. So how could it be done? Also since nobody is coming up with the money (especially leaders who broke the rules) then splitting the delegates and seating them is only fair.

  • Barack Obama for President 2008...

  • Sounds like something straight out of the early 90's, too cool. Obama really should put out a campaign soundtrack, I'd buy it in a hearbeat.

    Obama '08!

  • OBAMA 4 PRESIDENT!We know what happened to Martin Luther King it was a set up US Goverment dont even try to do that to Obama!

  • I am so sick of hearing about FL and MI,some of you guys act like they did not no the consequences of having there primary so early.I mean Barock Obama's name was absent from some of the ballots,not to mention that the candidates really did not campaign as hard in those states. Not like they would have if either one of them thought those votes would count.Some of you Hillary Clinton supporters seem to think there is no problem in any of this.

  • Yes, especially since Obama's name wasn't even on the ballot in Michigan.

  • Obama has sponsored over 800 bills.

    233 on healthcare reform

    125 on poverty

    112 crime fighting

    97 economic

    60 human rights

    15 gun control

    6 veterans affairs and more

    As Senator authored 152 bills, co-sponsored 427.

    Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006 (became law), Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and Conventional Weapons Threat Reduction Act, (became law),Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act, passed the Senate, Protection Against Excessive Executive Compensation

  • their is 2/black America those who in 60's Experienced Segregation and Racism/us who understand their anger but are Lucky!

    OBAMA say: I can not disowned the men jest like I could not disowned my white grandmother who had loved me more then anyone in the world, but have said things that made me CRINGE! ie. she is afraid of black men!

    the 60's was not that long ago so we still have some work!

    OBAMA is trying to build a bridge!

    "I come from a diverse family! I have pieces of America in me!"

  • superdelegates,7 abandon her and move to him: 34 undecided came out for him !

    there is no way to catch up to him(but to steal it)even if she win every state by 60%!(New york 58%?)she have not won by # so for!

    Obama have 700,000 more votes,170 more delegates!plus 116 undecided superdelegates, are leaning to him!

    republicans hit? they will do their best but Obama is not Karry! he will respond plus he got CHARISMA!

    Clinton's have more 'connections' SO

    time to unite & supports OBAMA_08!

  • good job

  • OBAMA is creating a huge movement that will stay for the next generations

    Obama 08

  • Larryb161 lol if Obama doesnt win and we continue on same path which includes war with Iran among others and economy continues to fall who knows if there will be much of an America left for another generation

  • only old ppl who are so stuck in their ways would vote for the clintons or mccains ...hail clintons ..go Obama ..u are gods gift to redeem us from the pain and abomination caused by the bushes and clintons ..

  • While some senators spent hours in closed-door meetings over immigration reform in early 07, Obama dropped in occasionally, prompting complaints that he was something of a dilettante.He joined a bipartisan group,which incl. Sen. McCain of Arizona and Kennedy, that agreed to stick to a final compromise bill even though it was sure to face challenges from interest groups on both sides. Yet when the measure reached the floor, Mr. Obama distanced himself from the compromise. The bill collapsed.

  • Hello people!I'm from Poland, tell me please what is a song?? Who sing it??

    Yes we can!! Obama 2008!!! :-)

    Obama górą!!

  • yes we can Obama 08!!!!!

  • OBAMA FTW! Vote Obama '08!

  • GREAT SONG! Rise Up American People and VOTE OBAMA in '08! WE can make this world Better! YES WE CAN!

  • Go OBAMA today in Wyoming and next up in Mississippi! VOTE OBAMA in '08, and he WILL make things alright in this country! YES WE CAN!!!

  • YAY=) Hillary opened up a can of whoop ass on Obama tonight. She whooped his ass so bad he will need truck load of Preparation H. HAHA. I guess they doubted her too soon. Hillary is strong as steel. Stick a fork in Obama because he is done. HAHAHA

    YOU GO Hillary.

    Hillary For Pres 2008=)

  • if u think hillary clinton should be president, then you should probably kill urself. Also, i hope someone beats u with a wrench

  • What won Hilary was not her Experience and her leadership ability it was her Fear tactic ads that she ran in the last days of the campaign.. Now if that is the type of person who you want to run this country then vote for her. As for me, I will stick with Obama.. He has treated her like a gentleman and she has taken advantage of it..

    I think the gloves will come off now and she will soon get some of her own medicine.And she won't like it.

  • Yes we can!! Obama 2008!!!

  • Hope is both the earliest and the most indispensable virtue inherent in the state of being alive. If life is to be sustained hope must remain, even where confidence is wounded, trust impaired. hope is more powerful than fear and Love is greater then hate! Obama will bring back a government of the people, by the people, and FOR the people. He will bring honesty and integrity back to the Whitehouse.

  • Your delusional--he is baseless and a good speaking Clinton like dancer...we don't need a dancer we need a leader... He is a leftest--look at his record...you don't have enough money to pay his taxes...wake up... Integrity..please...

  • He should have this blasting at all of his rallies. Every superhero has theme music. This is like one of those 80's sitcom theme jams. Or like "Shaft"...lol.

  • YES OBAMAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

  • ~Nice Song~:)

  • All aboard the Obama express, destination White House.Next stop Texas and Ohio.

    Si Se Puede , Yes we can. Viva Obama Cuba Libre Free USA

  • I love this!

  • wonderful video and song ty!

    Yes We Can! Obama 2008

  • This is the United States of America which has people of all income levels and all levels support Obama as well as Hillary. Obama is very smart as well or did you think he received his magna cum laude Harvard law degree as a gift? He is smart enough to go toe to toe with the most rough and tumble, down and dirty campaigners alive in the Clintons. He has withstood the barage of negativity with dignity and grace. He is amazing and we would be blessed if he makes it. Go Obama Go!!!

  • GOD BLESS OBAMA

  • sono italiano ma voterei obama per le presidenziali del 2008!

  • something about the man makes me want to follow him indeed :) OBAMA '08!!!

  • "It was a creed, written into the founding documents, that declared the destiny of a nation... yes, we can..."

  • 4 America, 4 the world...Yes you can.

    OBAMA 08 !

  • great song!!!

  • the world is behind obama, we are with you all the way to the white house!!

  • TEXAS AND OHIO have the distinguish honor of throwing the LAST BLOW to Hillary Clinton's campaign. Are you'll ready? Let's make it happen. YES WE CAN, YES WE CAN Obama '08

  • ur rite the world is waiting for obama to be president. im from england and muslim, obama is the man who can iron out the misunderstanding in the muslim world about the great people of USA.good luck YES WE CAN!!

  • great song. the world is behind Obama!!! 08ama... 08ama... 08ama...

  • Rise Up Ohio and Texas! Texas, let your Lone Star shine bright for Obama on March 4, 2008!! YES WE CAN PEOPLE!!

  • Yes, We Can! - Si, Se Puede!

  • What did the "Clintons" do to fix the economy? No really, I'd like to know what you think. Especially abut Hillary's role.

  • i hope obama win ohio and texas

  • It's not the President's job to have to fix the economy. The economy will fix it's self. It's a cycle just as it was when Bill Clinton was in office. America has to readjust it's thnking and be competive in the new global economy. Don't expect something handed to you for nothing. I'ts every American's duty to strive for excellence and be competitive in the workforce so we are at the top of the class in the world. It's time to stop pointing fingers, and do it on your own.

  • All aboard the Obama express, destination White House.Next stop Texas and Ohio.

    OBAMA08!!!

  • "People become really quite remarkable when they start thinking they can do things. When they believe in themselves, they have the first secret of success."-Donald Trump

  • This kind of rhetoric is more about emotionalizing politics, than addressing real problems. It is nice to say yes we can and when has hope ever been bad? but these positive slogans really just inspire without substance. I think this will win Obama the presidency, I just Hope that he has some ideas behind all of his positive rhetoric.

  • I am perfectly aware of the difference behind rhetoric and action. My opinion is that this rhetoric can act as a catalyst for the individual, which in itself is an action of Obama's campaign. Substance. Agreed it is emotional. I was taken by surprise when I had an emotional response to the realization that Bush has <1 yr in office. I can only describe it as a sense of political spring after a long terrible winter.

  • A cop out. History is filled with individuals who changed a government, a country a mindset. Each of us is responsible for change. Each of us is capable of promoting and inspiring change. Quit with the we can't. YES WE CAN!!!

  • I will be glad when all people can think outside the box. What is wrong with wanting to make things better for everyone? Why are some so afraid of change? Do you like the way things are being handled by our government now? The old way is not working for me. Obama knows change will not happen overnight, but don't kick him before he has a chance to show us change can happen. Maybe he can inspire some of the old boy's network to change and work for the people.

  • At least he can try. Those who keep quiet speak as loudly as those who do nothing.

  • >Nice try, but how much can one person really change the entire government?

    So true. You're so right, "insidepolitics." Ronald Reagan changed nothing. FDR changed nothing. Lincoln could have been replaced by anyone. The idea of electing an inspiring leader is silly, because what difference can one man make?

    Or one voter, for that matter. Let's all just stay home in November. Democracy can't change the entire government, can it?

  • Nice try, but how much can one person really change the entire government?

  • WOW... love the song.. I am impressed!!!

  • Senate and Congress pass LOWS not the president??? so even though I admire her for all she have done and where she wants to take the country: WE be better of 'w' her as a Vice President!!

    300m that was spend against her as a first lady DIVISIVENES of the 90's will keep any imported LOW from passing from CONGGRESS or SENATE!!

    WE need A unit-er and she could be DICK CHENNY!!work in the background::

    I am a female but I believe noting will unite the extreme right then Hillary!!!

    LOVE THE SONG!!

  • GO OBAMA , Fantastic  video

  • OBAMA 2008!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Obama is the only candidate who gives HOPE to people that we can make a change that we can believe in, only by a collective, united voice.

    Go Obama! You are the Man.

  • Obama's voice is like The Rock's! Finally... Obama's come to get the power!

  • Obama needs to find an honest running mate...how about Ron Paul????

  • ....black, brown, white, guys, gals, it doesn't matter...Obama sees us all as Americans first....he has my vote....he is the ONE to put blue and red together....Hillary was wondering why opednews didn't write enough about her...we are tired of junior high level fighting between the red and the blue...Obama gives us confidence to rise above all that.. you just can't go where your vision doesn't take you.....thanks for the music, good job on this remix...and, Obama, you make our hearts sing!

  • THIS IS GREAT

    PATRICIA

  • great video! 5/5

  • Ron Paul will make change happen, Real change....look at the voting record. It is spotless the man does not tell lies.

  • Ron Paul might bring change, but not the change we want.

  • I guess being against the civil rights bill is be spotless. I guess it depends on what side of the spot you are on.

  • really nice video. thanks, bruh! btw, obama is brilliant, tough, visionary, sexy, funny, global and hip. we need him now.

    don't hate... participate!!!!

  • Yes! I want an MTV video as president!! Do we get videos every month when he becomes president? OBAMA SUCKS.

  • mcain not obama or hillary

    MCAIN WILL BE PREZ

  • McCain is insaine

  • McCain?!?!?!

    You ARE kidding, right???

    McCain couldn't even stand up to Bush's Swift Boat Attack against him in 2000, let alone stand up for Kerry when Bush team did same to him in 2000. McCain response was to come out arms around Bush. Party first, people LAST.

    McCain President? Nah. Time for change.

  • After 8 years of slime and war profiteering, we deserve Obama. Just remember that he will have to start with serious deficits and economic instability. Remember who got us here. Iraq is not and will never be Obama;s war; remember that the GOP will try desperately to put these crimes and failures on Obama;s tab. Fuck that. We won't let it happen.

  • I like this better than YES WE CAN....nice remix...

  • such an inspiring speaker!!

  • OBAMA FOR 08!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Obama08!

  • This is great. I like it even more with his voice interspersed. He needs to use it on radio ads & tv spots. very moving.

    OBAMA 2008

  • vote obama!

    a vote to Hillary or MCAIN is a vote to war!

  • I often wonder how so-called evangelical christians support a man of war like Bush or Cheney, but do not support a man of peace like Obama. What would Jesus do?

  • No more dynasties, no more the same 2 families holding the white house for over 20 years, it is time for CHANGE, it is time for a new fresh blood, We don't need a 71 year old men in the white house, Obama is our best choice, be part of the change for our better future. OBAMA 2008.

  • Obama is the best!!!

  • Awesome video, Yes We Can / Vote Obama 08 God is Good. Thank You

  • I am Canadian, and I believe America can change. Yes you can!

  • I am for Obama. You can only suppress a positive message for so long and then it errupts. Many people have waited silently hoping for positive leadership while negative voices played us, one against the other. They killed MLK the man, but his message has been resurrected through Obama.

  • The world is watching -- eagleeye929, thanks for your support! Obama inspires the world - he says we can change it & somehow, as this song states so brilliantly, 'Something about the man tells me he knows what to do, he can show the way, shine the way, find the way........ALL THE WAY BACK HOME & INTO THE WHITE HOUSE!!!!! OBAMA 08

    YES.

    WE.

    CAN!!!!

  • barack obama 4ever!!!

  • VOTE

  • Yes oh please god people vote, we don't want another supreme prick like Bush in the white house

  • Awesome

    Yes We Can

  • Republican Huckabee:wants to amend the constitution of his beliefs, is a violation of the 1st amendment to the Constitution, known as the 'Bill of Rights': Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion... 2)Romney: Massachusetts had the 3rdlowest economic growth and job growth with the 3rdhighest population decrease-Only Katrina states did worse, he wants to do the same across the country. 3)McCain: Will continue with Bush failed policies. Obama for President-Yes We Can!

  • Let's change the world.

    A few months ago no one believed this possible.

    Vote Obama!!!

  • Great song. People like "RAM 0166" are those people that told us that we would never have equality, told us we would never reach the moon, and told us never to dream and reach our goals.

    LET NO ONE YOU THAT YOU CAN'T DO WHAT YOU WANNA DO.

    YES.WE.CAN!
