This is my favorite video of Barack Obama.. I live nearby Marion between Conway and Myrtle Beach. Whoever made this video, thanks.. it shows real down home people.. and what a warm, caring person Barack is.. Thanks..
I agree. It is also my favorite of many Obama favorites. As a SC native now living in South Florida, this is the video that made me really believe in this candidate.
I love this video. It's great to see Barack interacting with people. Barack is as genuine as they come. I think he will make a very special president! Barack Obama 2008!
"If you don't believe in your self nothing is possible" "you got to believe in your heart". beautiful.
A great example,this barbershop is,of how people can bring together a community, people of all ages,and make beautiful things happen,like getting the next president to visit them,and being a strength to him.
The Obama campaign is full of great stories, of inspiring people like the owner of this barber shop.
Much props to all the people in this video, and also the people who created it
The old lady, Miss Burke, passed on wisdom to the younger man: Every thing that a man does or accomplishes in the world began in the inside, in the mind, in the heart.
You've gotta envision what is possible. Then the actions follow to MANIFEST THE VISION and make it a living reality!
@lastword13 i hope you still feel the same! we need everyone's support to make 2012 happen. It took 20 years to get into this economic mess. Obama is a fantasstic leader!
Honesty, integrity, good judgment, and the ability to bring an end to divisive politics and get things done in the US and abroad -- Barack Obama has it all, and our moment is now to get him elected! Let's do everything we can to introduce voters to Barack Obama and get out the vote. Fired Up and Ready to Go!
There's something about a black barbershop. The black man's country club where you can get the true pulse of the people. This shop seems to exude this very thing. Listen to the owner of this shop: "We live in a real world and we need a REAL LEADER and not some puppet..." Obama is that real leader and I'm voting for him! Go OBAMA!
The movie leaves me smiling... When Barak wins SC I feel his(our) chances to be enhanced by focusing on winning and limit the civil rights rally to the future. He was eloquent enough in Iowa... of course I could be off base. 64 yo caucasion ken
I love that he says he looks at him as a human being first. Obama is definitely someone the American people can relate to, no matter what he looks like or what his backround. Obama in '08!
Obama left and said, "see yall!" He's as brilliant and articulant as they come, he can also humble himself to meet you where you are. He will not only take on his opposition, but he'll actually listen to them with respect. If America wants progression, (change) they'd better vote Obama or we'll go nowhere fast.
i kno most of the comments say that he is real, but it doesn't hurt to comment it one more time. obama is the real candidate. he doesn't have to put some spiffy attitude and fake smile to please ppl. he will tell you how it is and knows how to relate to the ppl that are not the rich upper class society. go obama! i'd rather vote for a real president than a woman just because she is a woman. obama is representing those whose voices aren't heard. go obama!
Obama is a real person with a real heart, I believe as president he will do his best to help out the middle to poor class families. I am a customer of Emerson's and I am not saying this because of that, I am saying this because I understand where obama is going with this. On top of all of this should not have anything to do with race or ethnicity. Its all about what is right and who is going to get the job done that is what matters the most. My name is Chris and I support Obama for president
There is no chance of me supporting Hillary, as long as Obama is running against her. He's the right person for this job, and brings out genuine emotion. He's what this country desperately needs, in order to unite. Please, everyone who is over the age of 18 who reads this, register and vote for Barack Obama. We don't need to look back in a few years, with a bad President, and ask what could've been if we'd elected Barack Obama our President.
I'm going to be truthful to all of you. Seeing this video brought a tear to my eye. I've supported Barack Obama since 2004. I was praying for him to make a run for the White House when the news broke of it in the fall of '06. Throughout this entire campaign, I have stood behind him. However, nothing in this campaign has reached out to me like this video. I'm a black male from the deep south of Alabama, who is now living in Hillary's backyard of New York City.
Brilliant. I am a white guy in California, and I'll tell you I'd put my life and my country into the hands of Barack Obama. I'm working harder than I've ever worked on anything to get him elected. People who say he can't win need to wake up. This is the bestt chance we've had in our lives to make this country a better place. Obama is the hope for the future and he can win.
AMEN!!! He's a great man and he can get the job done...he's not perfect but he is the best chance we have at having a better future here in America!!! Barack 2008!!!
Outstanding video! I love the candid and unscripted dialog. Emerson did a fine job expressing his views. I agree that we have to believe we can win this race. We have to convince others to believe too. Let's get to work...we have to bring some believers to the fold.
Beautiful. Real is exactly the right word to describe Obama. He is also quite intelligent but has lots of common sense. Scratch that: GOOD sense and judgement.

He said "Im going to vote for him, but I don't think he is going to win"
She said, "you got to believe, you got to believe in yourself"
He heard her, they organized, North Carolina a great win. Moved mountains.
He believed, and made things happen.
That is how to do it. I can learn from that.
