Thank you. Obama isn't creating excitment because he has Rasputin-like powers or because we are all fools swept away by rhetoric. He is generating excitement because there hasn't been a candidate of this caliber (with an actual chance to win)in decades.
People,
Forget CNN. Watch youtube's "Presidential Soul" and judge for yourself.
just kidding Obama 08! Good for the cast away guy, I knew he learned something from that island! -> that no matter what you are with, even if it's a volleyball can mean no difference!
Uh CAN SOMEONE DESCRIBE ME WHY HE WAS KIND OF ANGRY ON THE WAY OF TURNING HIS CAMERA OFF? I think his wife or something musta forced him to do it...
Wow I feel sorry for these Republican trolls that spend all day seeking out pro Obama videos and clicking the thumbs down on the video blog to anyone who says anything pro Obama. I don't see too many Dems doing that to pro McCain videos. Its kind of sad really. I pity you who ever you are thats doing it. Oh and good on Tommy boy here I 100% agree with him, Obama 08! Go ahead and give me the thumbs down the nation as a whole is still going to give Obama the thumbs up to be the next President!
My favorite actor, even before I saw this. It's great to see a role model supporting another. I'm also so glad to see those who praise the high road, as Mr. Hanks mentioned, as it has become a rarity, especially in the world of politics.
I don't know what to say. This has given me even more hope. Thank you.
Good on you Tom Hanks. It was about time McCain and Hillary stopped using ignorance to deceive Americans promote xenophobia and racism. And YOUTUBE is the poeples' media. We read the truth from youtube. Thanks for the post.
Great minds think alike..Tom Hanks stands for honesty, integrity and wisdom and he sees these qualities in Obama. When Americans select a president who can solve the macro issues of racial unity, equality and stability, your economy will fall into place because there is peace among you.
It's so refreshing to know that my favorite actor is publicly supporting the candidate I've supported from day one. I can only hope for change, real change, and with any luck the american public will come out of the dark ages and into progressive change.
The future is truly in our hands, and now more than ever america needs to lay the ground work for the entire world. Never has our role in world politics been more important, I hope people vote wisely and with that in mind.
Yes!! Tom Hanks endorses the one I will vote for: BARACK OBAMA. Finally, during this trash laden news mist, we have a man who skips the corrupted media and records himself endorsing the one who will change our nation.
Barack Obama has spent his life standing up for the those who lack the means to stand up for themselves. He strikes me as being someone with the sincere wish to make a positive difference in this country. Hillary, conversely, comes across as ruthless and power-hungry, desiring to win at all costs.
Obama is a man of honor and a man of respect. Obama wants America to come together and stop all the silly fighting. he wants to get lobbyist out of Washington to get things done. We are stronger together.
Thank you Tom Hanks for pointing out the historical implications of good men running the country.
Can't you imagine Obama being a fixture in the Forest Gump movie--with Forest running and holding a sign that says "Change we believe in" on one side and "Yes We Can" on the other." God bless you Tom,and as an avid history reader, I'm sure you know who's best for this country.
Tom Hanks ~ Thank-you for your endorsement of Sen.Barack Obama! BTW ~ Your one of my favorite actors! You always play a role in a movie which promotes morals and ethics vs ignorance. God Bless Tom Hamks and Obama! =D
What a great video from Tom Hanks. Someone who articulates what the American public desires in a leader for our country and understands Barack Obama's views and policies and doesn't give notice to the negative media spin. Go Obama '08!
I don't necessarily want Obama to win but I have to say this was a very clear and well thought out endorsement! He actually knows what he is talking about unlike some celebs who just endorse someone because they happen to be popular, Hanks seems to really know what Obama stands for. Great job Hanks!!
Tom, you are eloquent, measured, logical, sensible, convincing, forceful and honest in your choice of Barack Obama. I admire your courage for taking the risk to endorse Obama. Here you are, an actor whose box office appeal could be negatively impacted by such an endorsement, putting your money where your mouth is, a principled, caring and patriotic you risking his box office appeal so that Obama can make History with a "capital H". Obama is lucky and deserving of your endorsement. Bless you.
Thanks, Tom. I always thought you were a Republican because of your advocacy for the WWII memorial and your involvement with "Band of Brothers" and "Saving Private Ryan", even though I love both of them. Stupid me. I should know better not to stereotype people.

Good call Tom!
Ignore the shallow prejudiced smears,.. BARACK OBAMA IS A GOOD MAN! HE FIGHTS FOR THE WORKING CLASSES.
Hillary is a rich kid. She will complete yet another turn in the Bush-Clinton rich kid cycle.
When Hillary was a corporate lawyer for Walmart, Obama was working with the working class people of south Chicago.
No more corporate puppets.
