  • obama is the one who is going to save the country , mc cain wants war only vote for Obama please

  • A Democrat cares and helps others, A Republican does'nt. thats why Bush didnt do anything 2 save D soldiers in Iraq and bring them back home 2 their families. Or care 2 do anything 2 change our society such as: high taxes, economy, high gas prices, insurances, etc. And we all know McCain is just like Bush, so think about it, if McCain becomes D next President thats another 8 years of D same old Bush. Just note this: If U want change in our country vote for Obama, if you dont, vote for McCain.

  • Israel for Obama!

  • first smart thing israel has done

  • excellent!! the Americans are going forward with OBAMA

  • President Obama is a man from the floor, he knows life. President Obama is very celar, straight and honest. Thanks, mr President Obama. Vote for Barack Obama!

  • I'm in St.Louis two and i think that McCain is the same thing as Bush that is why we should vote for Obama For better future vote for OBAMA.

  • I live in St.louis and Obama is the best thing that ever happend to this city in politics

    we got francis slay as mayor... Thats the worst thing ever in st.louis politics

  • GO OBAMA!!!

  • Obama for continuation of the status quo.

    I'm in St. Louis I have zero tolerance for Obama or McCain supporters

  • Then why are you watching this speech.  There are millions of videos on youtube. If you don't support the candidates then don't vote.

  • Nice promises, Obama!

    Or should I say...Lies?

  • so true

  • Oh, shut up! Be quiet and vote Obama.

  • Great MAN. Sticks to the FACTS and never slanders other!!!!

  • McCain is just another Bush, don't you guys realize that?

    Obama has healthcare plans to where We can actually afford it. For people who really need it.

    More money in our pockets, so we can actually survive. Actually buy necessities, and that's a good thing considering how high prices are.

  • I think Obama is very astute. We NEED BIG change in this country, I like that he is younger, he's highly intelligent, he is strong & shows his stamina even around such misleading foolish propaganda about his religion,hertiage,tax hikes,etc. I hope he doesn't cave & ask Hillary to run as VP. We need a complete change, NO OLD POLITICS WHATSOEVER.

  • men-- Having Hillary for VP wouldn't be that bad , in reality it would be MORE groundbreaking for this country . A black man as President and a white woman as VP . I won't lie and say it isn't risky , BUT I think it would be a good move for the country overall .

  • Man, he seems so drained and tired. I hope he takes a well deserved rest for awhile. Even if I don't agree with "some" of his politics, I don't want anyone to lose their drive. It's like he's tired of fighting against stupidity.

    Happy Father's day.

  • Hey guys, I'm italian,I hope US leads the world as always...and this time guys start changing ..start electing Mr. Obama!

  • GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • OBAMA 08

    Change has Come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • presidents kinda age a bit when in service.I dont know how mccaine can take that strain at an age of 71

  • Obama 08

    we can do it

  • May Allah give the best for Mr. Obama... We love yo. Salam dari sahabat-sahabat anda di Indonesia. Terima Kasih.

  • He seems a little drained. I agree, he should rest so that he can go out there stronger.

  • GOD BLESS PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA.

  • I; having the right to vote, will definitely do so. I have never had a chance to vote for an intelligent, family oriented, Christian African American man. I would be a fool to pass up the opportunity of a lifetime. Surely he may not deliver all that he promises, but they never do. Why not t give him a chance to curtail some of the greed, and help people to simply live. Election '04 they re-elected 'the Bush", now can anyone do any worse than that? Except maybe Mccain, Democrat turned Rep.

  • I could really use some affordable health care. I'm self employed, and for me, my wife and two teen boys, I pay $900 per month. It's killing me. Hopefully Obama will be able to squash the insurance companies and get everyone lower rates. Oh and I think taxing the rich is the way to go. If they don't like it, then they can always try being poor.

  • Well said mrroper.

  • Rightly said mrroper! I fully agree with you!

  • Obama is my hearo

    He so has my vote. I love him

    And I so love his plan on taxes. =]

    Go Barack

  • YES WE CAN

    OBAMA 08

  • its these moments in history where how we react to growing threats to our existences will determine what those after us willhave toface ..We need to be openminded to change as things require change never hesitate to live inconvenience so that others may have a chance to have a life of convenience gobarack08

  • And she wasn't sure whether insurance was going to cover the medical expenses because they might consider this a preexisting condition. I remember just being heartbroken, seeing her struggle through the paperwork and the medical bills and the insurance forms. So, I have seen what it's like when somebody you love is suffering because of a broken health care system. And it's wrong. It's not who we are as a people."

    THAT IS WHY HE WILLLLLL WALK THE WALK.

  • ntdao, sorry about your mom. But I'm pretty sure Bill Clinton signed into law about 12 years ago, that when one person goes to another job with a pre-existing condition. The insurace company has to take that individual. Because it happened to me, and my new job insurance had to cover me.

  • "I remember my mother. She was 53 years old when she died of ovarian cancer, and you know what she was thinking about in the last months of her life? She wasn't thinking about getting well. She wasn't thinking about coming to terms with her own mortality. She had been diagnosed just as she was transitioning between jobs... (overlimit)..

  • Barack, how about you change that sign to MEDICARE FOR ALL. Medicare is an excellent health benefit that is already in place which should be easy to extend to everyone. I mean, why re-invent the wheel??? MEDICARE FOR ALL

  • Why do you people rate my comment down? Sure Medicare has some problems, but they never deny payment for covered services, you always know what's covered, and they keep costs down. Extending Medicare to all is just a starting point. Then we can work on adding services that apply to children, fixing part D, and improving the system overall.

  • 300 billion dollars!!

    Obama!!!!!!

  • He Got My Vote..Yeee

  • Obama is not going 2 raise taxes on middle class workers! He knows middleclass when they have jobs & $ spend & that keeps economy going. Rich people only circulate money w/in their own little realm, never trickling down 2 us! Rich people never asked 4 taxbreak & they understand policies Dems will pursue will be 2 their benefit 2! I took my $ out of stocks when other party won; I'll put it back when Obama wins. I'm optimistic now! Put $ in people's pockets, it circulates, economy booms! Simple!

  • I found a form with McCains voting record on taxes and one of the statements stated " this is off the record he said to a reporter, but when I am president I will RAISE TAXES." the site was Americans for tax reform-do not support this site , but thay did have a pdf of his tax voteing record.

  • Obama takes on McCain on the issues...McCain's hound dogs release smear videos complaining about Obama's elementary school. Hmmm...

  • Obama saying McCain is going to raise taxes is too rediculous for words

  • Did he say, "McCain is going to raise taxes"?

    I think the argument is this:

    McCain's tax plan keeps in place a large majority of the current tax rules George Bush has set. This is not mean, this is just a fundamental belief for a large majority of the Republican party.

    What Barack is saying, from what I understand, is that those in the top %5 paygrade of the United States can expect to pay more taxes. Those on the lower end can expect to not pay more in taxes.

    *I've run out of room.

  • did you even listen to the speech, he is going to cut taxes

  • I hope Obama wins, he will make a great president.

  • Then we can count on your vote for President Obama.

  • obama is the man, wake up america

  • I love the hihg-flying inspirational speeches Obama makes at his rallies, but I like it even more when he uses this style of speaking. He is clear, concise, logical, and speaks to us as adults. Well done.

  • Will he win by flipping Colorado and holding Iowa, Michigan, and PA or will he win in an Electoral Landslide?

  • 300 billion dollars? Good God, vote Obama!

  • great if he means what he says

  • as an Haitian-Canadian!! i support Obama 1000%...his vision is definitely clear...will be good for the United states of america and for The World......i'am an OBAMANIA!!!

  • President Obama knows what he talks about. President Obama is a man from the floor, he knows life. President Obama is very celar, straight and honest. Thanks, mr President Obama.

  • LOL eigher way who you vote for there will be a war with Iran.. Unless like.. if they sudently come under new leadership who just throws out all nuclear programs, as if that would happen oh No.

  • Obama for '08

    Lets help get this man elected.

    Evil will prevail when good people sit there and do nothing!!!!

  • An obvious difference:

    Obama - Looking out 4 the financial needs and health care 4 those who need it!

    McCain - Looking out 4 the interests of the fat cat, high earners.

    Wishin u luck Obama, and those beside him!

    Khai

  • LOL!! @ 1:03. Unfair to Bush! This is getting good. Obama vs McCain it's official!

  • This is what you would call the 'meat and potatoes' speech, where there is a lot of substance, with verifiable facts to back up what he is saying, and to stomp out what nonsense McCain is spewing out.

  • Wow, that is a really solid plan that i can believe in! I hope he gets the chance to use it :D

  • You'll be a good leader, and you will do well if you become the president, Mr Obama.

  • Damn this guy rocks, Obama has my vote with out a doubt.

  • I heard somewhere that typically once candidates are chosen they will start proposing plans that get public appeal but to not carry substance. I believe in Barack, but if I were to offer any advice for the future: Keep your game hat on, don't take your eye off the ball, and the promises you make today - hopefully do have backbone and not just polictical jargon to get votes. Maybe thats just the R.A.Machine putting its demeons to work, but keep on chucken man!

  • just wait for the debates... obama;s inexperience will prove his demise. McCain will eat him alive

  • if MCain wins its another puppet for ISRAEL AND AMERICA. Obama is goin be a puppet fo himself..

  • ...and with all the tax and spend rhetoric coming from the right, no one seems to point out that the $4 Trillion increase in the national debt, which is so NOT conservative!

    Perhaps we need to broaden our view on what our present true tax burden is when taking the blooming deficit into consideration.

    Does anyone figure this will ultimately be forgiven and the burden actually removed?

  • Obama wants to increase spending 1.4 trillion dollars And he expects to pay for this how? its impossible. Privatized social security was how it was originally setup we dont have a healthcare crisis of the 47 million people who the dems say need healthcare 15 mill are illegal immigrants already leeching off our welfare 5-10 mil are elderly that are elligible for medicare that just havent 5-10 are in the upper 50% of the tax bracket and can afford it. my source mankiw harvard economics professor

  • obama 08

  • I'm already looking forward to his second term as President!

  • clear ..thx "B" raise the min wage!!!!!. the cost of living is going up, so should our pay checks.

    i make $6 an hour gas is 4.11 that is alomst what i make.

    obama 08. rep can try to talk all these lies about u but we know the truth .we dont care waht the rep have to say. we need change. obama 08 all the way!!

  • he HAS to win!!!

  • Vote for Barack Obama!

  • If Obama choses John Edwards and Gives Hillary a high position in the admin. Goodnight John McCain, it'll be a steamroll.

  • Barack has the qualities it takes to lead this country into a new era of prosperity

  • One thing about Obama- he doesn't pander, and he doesn't beat around the bush (no pun intended). I think that's one of his best qualities, and is why people trust him more than McCain.

  • hes hot

  • Please Obama, take some time and rest. The primary season has just ended and it was long and grueling.

    Take some time and rest as well as consult with experts on every matter - Iraq, the economy, national security, everything.

    Then, come back rested and hit Mccain hard.

    I want you to be refreshed and at your highest alert when the debates begin between you and Mccain, so you can annihilate him early.

  • hahaha, he won't rest. it's not in him. even in "dreams from my father" he's worked pretty tirelessly as a community organizer that other people had to tell him to stop and smell the roses for a while

  • can't stop the obama machine.

  • As a small business owner who has seen an increase of over 20% in our top flight health care package, i support this program, this agenda and this idea. It is so simple. And the promises are clear enough that this man can be held accountable for the results put into record here. C'mon, people. Let's rock this thing.

  • yeah....right..... talks to some nurses and then goes to a $3,000 a plate dinner....Who's really important??

  • Health Care for "All" its been discussed long enough. Lets "Hope" for "Change".

  • Obama has been doing a great job and not only has he gotten more votes, but he is also a great person. That is VERY VERY clear Obama, and we understand what your talking about. Most of Us, Hope You Win. But Still, Nobody Knows What will Happen During the Upcoming Months, But Good Luck Obama.

  • well done BO. as a Srilankan I think u r the right person to be the C-I-C

  • I hope by now people can see through all the BS of this batch of republicans. How can anyone believe that Mccain is going to be anything more than another elitist pawn who will milk this country, and the working people, for every penny they can get their grubby hands on.

  • I cant wait to see these two ina town hall forum.... he is going to obliverate mccain.....once people see thier true choices togther...there wotn be a choice. I predict a blow out in november

  • GO OBAMA!!!!

  • A quick, intelligent response to McCain. McCain has always seemed awkward in his speeches, and Obama just makes him look bad on all fronts.

  • We are witnessing history in the making. I'm very proud of the man! It is extremely difficult doing what he is doing. I truly believe the man upstairs is guiding him along.

  • leftyriter A very good talk. As a physician with 34 years of practice behind me, I want to help in any way to "take on" the drug and insurance companies. In my opinion it should be illegal to allow media ads about prescription drugs. Informing the public about prescription medication is the responsibility of public and national health organizations and of course the physician in private consultation with patients. Five stars to Barack's talk!

  • Obama for president..pure and simple but yet so meaningful..im glad were going to have something new in the white house and see a real chance!

  • Do something about the gas prices!!! Obama!! PLEASE!!! Im sure u know how! Its $4.70 gallon!! (premium) Please !!! Alternative fuels! stop oil companies!! PROMOTE NEW URBANISM!!!!! SOMETHING!!!

  • Hey everyone, for all Obama supporters, I need some advice to try and stay away from getting so discouraged from the haters of Michelle and Barack in my area, any tips?

  • Damn you, Obama. Why must you be so rational?

  • good job hitting back at the mccain team. cant wait to see the debates.

  • Obama is my vote for 2008 :D Hope you beat McCain!

  • McBush has nothing to go on him other than ignorant attack ads.

  • Go Obama go

  • Now that is how the president of the United States should think and speak.

  • I LOVEEEEEE OBAMA!

  • i hope he wins =]

  • I love Barack Obama he is a breath of fresh air, this is a time for change.

  • i love that man <3

  • hey guys you are looking at our next president

  • I'm not a democrat (nor am I a Republican), and I still have to say, it's nice to finally see a democratic candidate that doesn't take shit from the Republican candidate.

  • good idea.

  • Go Obama!

  • We can't afford another term of Bush.

    We need CHANGE and that is what we will get if we vote Obama.

    OBAMA 08!

  • Very articulate and elegant

  • hope obama wins

    obama obama obama

  • Very rational and thoughtful...

  • I agree!

  • WE HAVE TO DO THIS, AMERICA. ALL HILLARY CLINTON SUPPORTERS SHOULD VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA. HILLARY EVEN SAID WE SHOULD. AND ALL OBAMA SUPPORTERS (me), WELL OBVIOUSLY THEY SHOULD TOO. BARACK OBAMA, 2008! CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN!
  • McCain has completely failed to explain his stance or his solutions to ANYTHING. Healthcare, economy, climate. He is truly 4 more years of Bush or worse, without a shadow of a doubt.

  • Hey folks, just a friendly reminder - please refrain from posting, "FIRST COMMENT" because many of us are here to discuss Obama - not YOUR first comment.

    Thanks and vote Obama '08

    Yes we can !!

  • si

    se

    puede

    !!!!!!

  • go on obama u tell 'em.............and i heard today is sasha obama's b-day! so happy birthday ma! OBAMA0888888!!!!!!! ;)

  • Obama should abolish the Federal Reserve... it is privately owned and controls the interest rates and so the dollar... put the money back under the control of the free market!

  • he's luking good

  • Obama>

  • Great speech.

  • hes a very good speaker...

  • obama is a great guy with great ideas.

  • great guy, with great ideas.

    Obama for President!!!!

  • Obama'08 GET OUT THE VOTE!!!

  • Go Barack!

  • I am a 22 yr old white man and I voted for hillary in the primaries in Ohio but I will vote for barack obama in the presidential race because I am a democrat and I will abide by and trust in my parties elected nominee and I shall respect the educated decision of my parties elected representative leaders. Democrats we have the ability to win the presidency if we stick together and don't jump ship because of racism and bitterness. We already have majority in congress. We're so close to a better US

  • thank for wanting to save social security like me being disable at 29 if it wasn't for the disability income i would be dead cause there ain't no way im gonna live in a nursing.thats take MR.Obama or should i say president: )

  • I think grassroots organizing is what our country needs. We need to fix this from the bottom up not the top down. The top down is why the working class get's screwed

  • Obama you the man!!

  • AMERICA dont throw an opportunity away,take a look at your ECONOMY,MORTGATE CRISIS,GAS PRICES,ask yourself,are you happy with all this?if so vote mcbush,if you want change vote barack obama.

  • Sound policies from Obama. Flawed one-sided policies from McCain. The choice is clear.

  • People need to vote for this man or America is Screwed.

  • i was a hillary supporter throughout the nomination process, but now that the democratic party has a nominee, i'm very happy to support someone like barack obama, i think he's going to change the face of democracy and go down in history

  • Obama is telling the truth. McCain is trying to sugar wrap his proposal in rheoric about "conservative values", but in reality is just looking out for his corporate friends, who's lobbyists are running his campaign. Unfortunately for him, enough people are looking closely enough to see through his bullshit.

  • I can't wait untill Obama and McCain debate. Obama will so PWn him!

  • "thats not fair to bush" lol

  • Obama is going to be the BEST president this country has ever had!

  • You better pick Hillary for VP.....or you lose.

  • How much clearer can a candidate be? Obama is as clear as a candidate can be who is not in office, and gives a basic and solid outline for what needs to be done. And he's relaxed.

  • thank you obama for being involved in this campaing, you can change the future of our planet and make sure our children can have a better life, living in a period of peace and prosperity!!

    dl italy

  • Obama keep the facts coming. Your policies proposals are what America needs.

  • What a VISION !!!!!

  • This Man Obama,can lead America to its destiny.Oh by the way, Mccain if elected is looking for away to start a war with IRAN.Its time for CHANGE AMERICA. To all the Hillary supporters we can not allow Four more years of Bush policys.Look at the Gas Prices,look at the wars,Look at the Economy,Then take a Look at our children suffering, American Children suffering Not on our WATCH ,Lets come together and Elect Barack Obama.

  • McCain hates Bush

  • obama at the aipac summit said he would do whaever it takes to remove any iranian threat moppy you better read alittle more.

  • mccain is not looking to start a war with Iran. pulling out of Iraq actually has the potential to start a war with Iran. Leaving an unstable government in Iraq will create a power vacuum. The government will fall into the hands of the shi'ite majority which will be basically a puppet gov for the shi'ite iran. Leaving Iraq now will increase Iran's power possibly leading to war

  • Obama is going to slaughter McCain in the debates.

  • well done B! Make it clear for them :)

  • My babe boy Obama <3

  • Keep hitting back, Barack. McCain has little or nothing to offer everyday people this fall and we all need you to talk repeatedly over the heads of spin doctors who would frame him as a moderate maverick. He is nothing of the kind.

  • McCain will only be a puppet president for the republican party sticking with the Bush polices I for one rather take a chance and bring some new blood into the white house than settle for the same old BS from the elitist who think that the can feed us the same bull.

  • I hope he wins...

  • Hope yes, but make it happen!!!

  • i hope he doesn't

  • I hearby change his slogan from "Yes We Can" to:

    YES WE WILL!

    Start calling him President Obama.

  • That is clear

  • That is clear

  • Go Obama, You gona win just keep it up

  • I am voting for Barack Obama because I refuse to vote for a sexist, anti-gay, anti-abortion, pro-war, control freak like John Mccain.

  • Go Barack!

  • Great Speech. The next president.

  • This is some good stuff.

  • John Mcain is George Bush 2, are are going to be in even more debt with his plan. Obama wants to shut these business loop holes losing money, when we could invest it in other places. Plus I deserve everyone deserves health care and it shouldn't stay the way it is. Mcain is strictly for big businesses and not for the common man.

  • obama o8 !

  • I like Obama's acknowledgement that improving economic opportunities for individuals requires changes in our national economic strategy. The answer isn't in quick fixes, but strategic restructuring. Not just catchy slogans, but strategic solutions.

  • This most important point is that Obama's replying IMMEDIATELY to McCain's attack. Good job!

    The substance is also excellent.

  • OBAMA 08!!!

  • Gobama.

    He is change.

  • my man!

  • (95% of workers)

  • Man, gj Obama internet team. You get these videos up very quickly. Thanks :P. One tip for Obama supporters: If you want to win over a McCain supporter, you must use statistics to argue your point. Show them that McCain's policies will throw this country into greater debt, that our occupation of Iraq doesn't make us safer but greatly endangers us, and that through raising taxes for the wealthiest 5% of the nation we are able to lower it for the greater 95% of it. Encourage them to think.

  • He looks tired of talking...

  • Another Excellent Speech by Barack Obama. OBAMA IS THE BEST.

  • I can't wait untill Obama and McCain debate. Obama will so PWn him!

  • First ??

    Thank you Obama!!
