  • if i was a lil black kid, I'd probably be going crazy too. Sweet event.

  • What a great wake up call for the USA. A black president.. These kids now know they can achieve and not end up in the gutter.

  • If that was Bush, he would wipe his hands after lol.

  • Bush NEVER GOT THIS TYPE OF GREETING!! BUSH WAS THE DEVIL HIMSELF!!!

  • good publicity for him

  • @SpaceWars2025 FU!!! not about publicity!!

  • OMG a wonderful vid to brighten up the day..

  • cute

  • That was so special.

  • great vid. i had only seen the still photos of this event.

    how wonderful for the children to meet the new president.

    this will definitely be a lasting memory for them.

  • I love how excited the children are.

  • I love him...I'm so happy that we have him as President.

  • "Everybody like math?" "YEAH!"

    The teachers are probably thinking, "You all didn't like math 10 minutes ago when I quizzed you on your multiplication tables..."

    LOL

  • say, popcur...have you a nazi bee in your bonnet?? if you're feeling a bit understimulated, perhaps you should jerk off. or better yet, why don't you go buy a glock & do away with yourself so that the rest of humanity may continue evolving at a healthy pace...?

  • A Quincy Illinois TV report from November 5, 2008 uses Obama team sources as saying a face to face meeting was to take place between Barry and Rod. On November 6, 2008 they reported the meeting had occurred. Obama's stuttering response to a reporter's question the other day appears to be a bald faced lie.

  • STFU and quit spreading this nonsense around the Internet, idiot.

  • who cares ? The guy is president. Stop hatin'

  • you're just mad because you know that not even white kids would react to Bush or McLame like that. this country is moving in the right direction and, once again, becoming the envy of the world.

  • nycsky right direction? you mean more corrupt and filled with more crime good lord!

  • This video reassured me that I made the right choice. That is my future first family. I love the Obamas and will do anything to meet them. I did my final paper on them on got an A. Thank Mr. snd Mrs. Obama for all you are doing, all the thing you are going to do and all the thing you have done

  • In a court of law, the burden of 'PROOF' is on you to show that something is fake. So far his birth certificate being fake has been unfounded. Why doesn't he show YOU, the PUBLIC his orig. birth cert? Why, because it's NONE OF OUR BUSINESS! He's shown us what we needed to see and shown the real folks that matter (CIA FBI DOD DNC Passport office) the real deal. Sec. of State Rice saw 'proof' when his passport was breached. Remember that? She, a republican could've called him out. Why didn't she?

  • Greggymcgurks: I totally agree! But you know there are folks out there who are mouth-breathers and knuckle-draggers, who will NEVER accept the concept of a man like Obama being elected, and slam and judge his performance BEFORE he's even in office!! I know it's hard to ignore these stupid, ignorant cretins; I myself can't! It would take a miracle. LOL!

  • I just love the Obamas!!! We are truly blessed to have such a wonderful President coming in to lead and fix the disasters of the previous administration!!!

  • great video

  • This is what I find to be a shame. The fact that comments posted on this video has to be from a bunch of people STILL complaining about irrelevent campaign sleaze that they are still clinging too instead of how AMAZING it is that President Obama gets this kind of response from school kids... it's amazing and touching. Alot of you people really need to get over it by now and get a life.

  • popcur, are you referring to george bush's total lack of regard for the constitution? if so, i agree that the state of our country right now is thanks to he and cheney completely ignoring it. i'm glad we have president obama to try to turn that disaster around.

  • Obama has expertise in our Constitution and great respect as well.

    Unlike republican lawbreakers like bush and cheney.

    Stop your lies!!

  • unless you have a crystal ball prove it

  • Whatever, Nostradumass.

  • expect the US political leaders from the city council member, state rep. and the way up to the President of the US. All of them should follow the US Constitution. nothing personal.

  • Beautiful moment for those kids and they will never forget it...The president to be told them that they can be anything they want to be.

  • This was simply wonderful. I love this family.

  • That was really touching

  • What a wonderful family and I am so proud of them. To tell those children if you work hard you to can become President was awesome. Now they can actually believe it.

  • dejahthoris, give it a rest .... your party lost ...

    Terrorist, Socialist, Muslim, Anti-American etc didn't stick .. this wouldn't ...

  • I was responding to a comment midwestcharm made. He or she who does not believe Obama was born in the US. If you want to respond to comments on youtube you have to hit "view all comments" so you can properly follow the flow of conversation.

  • Haha!... I LOVE THIS!!! These kids were "freaking out" OMG!! Obama!!! So darn cute. =]

    He is like a Super Hero! Now and forever more when they ask the kids who is your favorite Super Hero? It'll be..

    Obama..

    Batman..

    Superman..

    etc.. hehe =]

  • What was so cute and funny were the little children who were holding on to him and would not let him go! He was practically dragging them because they would not let go! That was so cute!

  • wow....he told those kids they could end up president of the united states some day, and now its actually true...almost cried

  • The "Illuminati"? You really do wear a tinfoil hat.

  • "Secret service raise your hand". Hilarious.

  • That is sooooo touching. I am grateful for the pride and HOPE for our children - all children - rich and poor, black and white and brown.

  • So true. I watch this and it made me cry a tad! I tell my children there is no-one white or black. We are all different shades of brown, some lighter and some darker.

  • I watched and said I'm not going to cry...I'm not going to cry...I ended up a wimpy mess :0)

  • Yep, me too. My fleece sleeve is all wet.

    For these kids to have him come in and tell them "you can be anything" is a QUANTUM LEAP for them. Their lives just changed in an instant.

  • loved everyword you said....wished i had said them !

  • Most important, he told them they could be anything IF they did their homework and studied hard and read books instead of playing video games. That IF they worked hard they could be anything they wanted to be.

  • The only president that could get this kind of reaction was maybe Kennedy. This visit must have been so inspiring to those kids.

  • I agree with idetached.....it was priceless...I can not remember a time when I have a pres. elect or pres....handing out food or in a whim going into a school to speak to a group of children....he is truly leading by example....it is a GREAT day in america....

    peace and blessings

  • google it. You go to the little box on your computer screen that says Google and type in obama birth certificate and press the "enter" button. Happy thanksgiving!

  • It takes about five seconds to find it on the internet. Get a life please

  • get over it...hes now gonna be the president....so screw u!

  • Oh seriously, your tinfoil hat is on too tight. Are you being anally probed by space aliens too?

    The birth certificate has been out for months, you just want to hold on to any stupid fantasy you can to justify your hate for the man.

  • You imbecile, I don't even have my original birth certificate. I have a state certified copy. He's released the same. Why don't you just get over yourself?

  • This was the best thing to see on Thanksgiving Day! I just know that some of those kids will take what he said to heart.

  • A president that cares. What a novel concept.

  • such a touching act of kindness by pre,-elect obama. so sweet so heart-felt we have finally elected a truly great man for the job of pres.

  • We are a great nation! God bless America!

  • This video has me crying like a baby. Both Barack and Michelle are so warm and caring and authentic, as are their adorable daughters. What a wonderful thing for him to do to come in and spontaneously speak to these children. He is a true inspiration and can lift up not only a nation but the world with his positive messages and actions.

  • That was priceless.

  • That moment just changed their lives...

  • like kennedy before him...he has the chance to inspire an entire generation

    i am thankful to be living in these wonderous times

    and im glad that way back in 04, i was right about the man

  • I am not into religion at all, but he is like a messiah in this current crisis and an inspiration to mankind. 5/5

  • This guy is soo nice and cool. Glad he did that

  • Such an awesome video. This was a day that the young children will never forget!

  • Even though some of the smaller ones really didn't know what was going on, you could see them get caught up in the excitement.

    I love how Michelle even picked up some of the kids to give them a hug.

    I bet most kids don't have to go through training on how to deal with 100s of screaming kids like Malia and Sasha. I bet they'll be great women someday.

  • At about the 6:30 mark you can see Malia go to her dad and whisper that there was a little girl crying. Barack immediately goes over as does Michelle and she picked the little girl up and gave her a snuggle. This family is and is going to be such a treat to watch for the next 8 years.

  • An acute observation stickleyroad. This shows a lot about their character and the values they are imparting to their kids.

  • Oh, thanks. i didn't notice that. What a beautiful thing this family is.

  • That was beautiful. That's a moment that these kids will remember for the rest of their lives, and it sends a message to them that you CAN be whatever your mind and spirit embodies for you.

    I just hope the trials and the pressures that come along with the enormous task Barack is about to undertake doesn't muddle or diminish the huge heart he has for people, especially children.

  • Thanks for pointing that out, stickleyroad. I thought Malia was getting freaked out by the crazy energy and needed a reassuring hug from dad.

    Instead, the smart little girl was on the job as First Daughter.

    Thumbs up.

  • Oh really! Where in hell have you been the lat eight years?

  • Amazing video, I'm not sure if people truly understand what President Elect Obama means to these children. For most of them to see a positive Black man achieve the highest office in the land will change theirs lives forever. Those young black boys cling to him becausethey have a father figure to look up to. They need that more than anything.

  • Those were some lucky kids!

  • I love this video. To see those babies so excited. I have been crying tears of joy alot since November 4th and expect to have many more moments of joy and pride during the next eight years!

  • What an extraordinary president we are going to have on January 20, 2009!

  • Near the end when all those teeny little kids - especially the little boys - are hanging onto Obama's fingertips...just amazing, and very moving.

    Lovely film.

  • Third time watching it and each time, the tears! OMG, the teeny-weeny ones just won't let go of him; he keeps on walking, dragging them along as they hang onto his arm! lol A child's love, so precious. Oh, how blessed we are to have such a caring, loving man as our president! Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

  • I love when he tells them that there's nothing they can't do, they can be one day president or something and the kids just become crazy. It's so beautiful, he's going to be an example for generetions. He is already and example for me.

  • This 73 year old great grandmother is crying like a baby seeing our young being inspired to be all that they can be by this man! Hope springs eternal! Thanks this Thanksgiving for OBAMA, as the children chant, and may their chant, 'Yes we can', take them to higher than this country has allowed them to go...And so it will be!

  • hope all these kids will break free and achieve their highest potential in the future

  • It is just fantastic!

  • How fabulous.

  • From 6:54 - 7:26 was so amazing to watch. Those little ones showed so much love and aspiration. I had to shed a tear of joy.

  • wow! you could just tell that made their day!! what a great video!
