  • Curious about how the two top comments feel about him now, 2 years later.

  • OBAMA 2012 !

    

  • i Believe he is the Anti-Christ...look up - ---> skull & bones society

  • @HERBAL420NEEDS Obama,& Bush are apart of the same group...

  • @wrestlemaniawar Finally, Someone I can agree with

  • WOW this WAS the dumbest mistake ever! if you voted for him your a dumbass who dosnt know anything! What has he done that has helped us? NOTHING!!!!!! So people saying hes better than george bush stfu because this man is clearly worse..... Also how did he get to be president without anyone ever knowing where he was born and he providing a birth certificate? All democrats are stubborn idiots, and the only reason he won was because of cheating, not t mention almost ever black voted for him in!!!!!

  • @Wrestlemaniawar That is really racist you bastard!!!

  • ok he became the first black president i congraduate him but he needs to start doing stuff. escepcially about the oil spill. next time dont vote on their character and skin but on their issues and solving them pretty much their politics.

  • @jcool916

    A tiny majority of people voted for Obama just because of his colour. Most voted for him because he was the right person. People can say that he screwed up the economy, but if Mccain had won, America would be at war with Iran, North Korea, Pakistan, the list goes on. He brough hope to thousands of people because he was like a new Martin Luther King. I don't know much about Amercian politics, but I do know that Obama was the right choice.

  • Barack Obama is a awsome guy

  • #LOL

  • i like Obama.He is great president.He is done history and his is totally better president than George W.Bush!!!

    It isn't going to get better, just A LOT worse.

    Bring back Bush ffs....

  • I don't give a fuck if you live in america or not don't talk shit over the internet unless you want shit to happen

  • how could you be so cruel,,,,,yes we did have a leader that was not thinking but he doesn,t speak for all of us

  • you say fuck america and we say fuck you

  • The title of this video is wrong! Obama doesn't become president until January 20th 2009. It should read: Obama become president elect - 5 Nov 8

  • lol get over yourself dude, you're such a cry baby.

  • What tax bracket are you in? I'm pretty sure you will be congratulating him soon after he taxes half of your paycheck...

  • yeah u rock obama

  • OBAMA SHOULD B ON MOUNT RUSHMORE

  • your fuckin trippin

  • i aint fukin trippin

    da first black pres.?

    yes he should

  • fuck that fool, he gonna make shit worse, this is gonna go down as the worst 4 years in american history, obama is not the answer

  • nahhh he gonna make thingz waaay beter

    but datz juzz ma opinion

    we will c if he does a good job or not

  • i love your nigga president

    and i hate that mccain white nigga coward

  • You sound very well educated.

  • no im not!! if i was very educated i would not visited this propaganda chanel.

  • To any Obama opponents, having Obama as the U.S. President(to be), is about an 'mass' energy shift in the collective 'positive' direction. Doesn't mean he's going to change the world. It's all of us together, obviously, based on what's going on around us, and how it all makes us feel. It's a big relief to the majority of the world, I would expect. It's about balance of social 'energy'. Makes the collective consciousness more at peace, I think.

  • i agree, the energy shift is right! to lift the spirits of the american people and the world, it's a climb in the right direction, UP!

  • its incredibly depressing and disgusting that it took over 300 god damn years to finally elect a black president, this country is supposed to be the land of opportunity, now seriously? i mean really are you kidding?

  • 300 years, ehh?

    USA is only 232 years old... so I guess the USA didn't have a white, blue, green, or otherwise president 300 years ago, did it?!

  • nevertheless, its still pretty damn pathetic

  • Exclusivism affects Americans of all races.

  • Obama has really inspired me and he is the President of the United States, I am glad he won over John McCian

  • I need to send so many emails and tell them

    "I told you so :)))" - Since January I told he will win!!! Now I will tell you all that within one year, he will be the reason for a democratic world, because for once a strong nation is in the hands of a truly intelligent, patient, beloved man...Don't you get it Amerika, the whole world loves him!!! Watch some Foreign News Channels and you'll understand - France

  • I truly feel sorry for everyone who feels Obama is going to "change" the nation and the world...

    Watching people cheer with joy..crying etc.

    When they figure out that they have been screwed over once again, by the elite who use the so called commander and cheifs as a puppet. Best of luck to you all...

  • i truly feel sorry for everyone who feels McCain would be a great president. quit being ignorant.

  • What? just because he's black meens he can't "change" the world?? Or is it, your mad that a black man actually had the courage to step up to the plate and run for president?? You think that Mccain would have won because theres more whites then blacks. That's true, but then again all nationalities helped Obama win. Because they thought and "knew" he was the right one God had sent to lead us. I bet this is all so interesting for you, because i'm only ten years old!!!

  • Obama has a tough time ahead of him. But you know what? He united a world for a time. Now who can tell their grandkids that?

  • This is going to be in my daughters history books, it's been such a blessing to see this happening before my eyes. Obama will have great tasks ahead of him but I believe he is the best man to handle this country and is going to lead us in the right direction. America is finally uniting and together we will do this.

  • I can now fly my American Flag with pride for first time in a while.

    Last night I actually screamed; USA, USA, USA at the top of my lungs! :)

    After studying Social/Abnormal Psychology in college; social norms, compliance mechanisms, wish to belong ...

    I have to step back and check myself.

    However, I must admit that this morning, the air seemed fresher and the future seemed brighter, even do Cheney and Bush are still in office :(

    Thank You America :) Change has come/Hope is here!

  • SAME here. lol

    go obama!

  • Paintball dude..When I said the elite runs the show...i meant it. McCain would have been a horrible president as well...do you honestly think the front runners speak for themselves and make their OWN decisions?? They ARE puppets!

    Time will speak for itself...

  • obama is the man=]

  • While I voted for Obama, because I do believe we need a change, I never doubted McCain's class. This man is a TRUE American Hero!

  • Barack Obama not only won! but America won!!!

    it was never a black and white thing... it was a america vs. the greedy and racists thing!!

  • Where I was volunteering to call voters to the polls, "whites" outnumbered every other skin color, because I'll be damned if I'll call being pale-skinned a "race." There's only one race: homo sapiens. Otherwise we'd have knuckle-dragging Neanderthals still -- oh wait, that explains Bush voters ;D

  • wow McCain, that was incredibly respectable, thx for not being a sore loser, :D

    and there is no reason for fighting over this, peace should be the way, :D

  • A textbook illustration of the purpose of elections in an undemocratic system. Exchange 1 corporate puppet for another, and everything that has been discredited is suddenly legitimate again.

    This is exactly like when 'New Labour' won the 1997 election in the UK. Their slogan was "things can only get better." Except they didn't, because the 'Labour' party had almost identical policies to the Tories.

    Obama will change NOTHING.

  • If I'm wrong let him prove it. Let him end the wars for a start.

    REAL change comes from the people when they organise & act, not from opportunist 'messiahs' like Obama.

  • "el nuevo kennedy del millenium de hoy!"obama el democrata de los centros en estados unidos de norteamerica"felicitaciones presidente obama!viva usa,viva panama,viva hellas(grecia)!

  • who are all the assholes booing...

  • LOL

    I only laugh at you people who think things are going to change under Obama. CFR/Bilderberg/AIPAC etc. He is their bitch just like every other president! Corporations and the FED own America. The Dem's held congress for the last 2 years and did nothing to restore your rights or to crush the patriot act. The bait and switch is on! 8 years from now you'll all beg for a republican saviour again when you are still poor and at war over lies. Mark my words people! There is no change here!

  • So, since are so much smarter than the rest of us, why did you not run Soupdragoon? Maybe you can help this country out with all your wisdom and ability to sniff out the subversive forces that are destroying the very fabric of this country.

    I say Soupdragoon for 2012!

  • Name one thing that Obama has done for America! Just one! and don't Google it! Just use what you know off hand and explain to me what makes him so great. The points I am making are also points that Ron Paul has been making. So you don't need to be sarcastic because that is a very weak defense! Instead why not look beyond this media backed charade that's playing with your emotions while glossing over the real facts! If you really wanted change? You'd have listened to RP

    watch?v=ji_G0MqAqq8

  • He just got elected. Ron Paul is back in Congress.

    And you are sitting on your fat ass just being negative as your IQ.

    Ron Paul needs to run as an independent or start a viable 3rd party because he will NEVER get support from the Republican Party.

  • Ok I asked you to site examples of what Obama has done to support this saviour status he now holds. You insted insult me like a child! So there you have it! It's one thing to spout catch phrases like "change" and skirt the issues. Ron Paul actually speaks out against this corporate monster that is currently running the show in the shadows. You can act like it'll change but you know in your heart that the corporate system backed by the FED is and always will be in firm control of everything!

  • Look: It is over. No reason to trash the man. He is the President of the US.

    I treated you like a child because you are pissing and scratching like one.

    Hey, maybe Ron Paul can run in the next election. Maybe not

    No one ever knows what they are getting when we elected a man president of the this country. No one comes in truly prepared for the job. Everyone learns on the job. Coming in with a super resume is no guarantee of success. It is all about faith and that is what the voters have in him

  • I'm definitly not trying to tear down the hopeful optimisim of this presidency. As a Canadian I love America and it's people and I want her to prosper. I like what Ron Paul speaks about because he is speaking the truth. Or he is the closest to it right now. People generally don't want to know how bad it really is which is truely scary. I distrust the media and I feel that this is a made for TV president. I don't think that the real powers have or will ever change.

    But I wish us all well!!!

  • Just to let you know he is not the President of the United States yet. He is only elect as President but not official. His honorable Pres. George W. Bush is still the President of the United States.

  • You are totally right, except for the "honorable" part. It will take years before all americans realise what happened over the last decade, how they were fooled, manipulated, and used. I hope this new -future- president will bring balance and justice in this country.

  • thats true, nine months ago but not anymore!!

  • Wooohoooooooo!!!!!.. for alongtime, i have been ashamed to be American, but not today!..

    Si se pudo, Arriba Obama and the 500 Nations!

  • I can now fly my American Flag with pride for first time in a while.

    Last night I actually screamed; USA, USA, USA at the top of my lungs! :)

    After studying Social/Abnormal Psychology in college; social norms, compliance mechanisms, wish to belong ...

    I have to step back and check myself.

    However, I must admit that this morning, the air seemed fresher and the future seemed brighter, even do Cheney and Bush are still in office :(

    Thank You America :) Change has come/Hope is here!

  • CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU,

    MR PRESIDENT!

    Manchester UK, Damascus Syria, Kaduna Nigeria, AND THE USA California..

    Thank you!

  • rooofl.. is that Oprah Winfrey crying in the background at 2.16? :S

    .. anyways go go go Obama..

    In obama we trust

    Norway

  • if only Martin Luther King, Malcolm X (and Tupac lol) were still with us to see this

  • "if only Martin Luther King, Malcolm X (and Tupac lol) were still with us to see this "

    They're watching, they're watching.

  • I'm seek of this election. All channels including Russians show this.. Yuck!..

  • Then watch the cartoon channel.

  • Haha)) Whicn channel would you prefer? :)

  • Say what??! Are you blind?? I really can't understand how someone can still talk such BS after what happened in the last 8 years. You call Obama evil for favouring partial abortion at a time when your fellow americans are send to die in countries the never should have been, thanks to the last government. Wake up, it's 2008, not 1908 you ignorant fool..

  • Eat this, Joe the "Plumber"!

  • LOL!!! People seen through the lies about Obama. McCain thought he could lie his way to a win but americans proved they are not blinded any more. They have pulled the covers from over their eyes and have seen McCain for what he truly is.

    GO AMERICA AND GO OBAMA!!!!!

  • What a sad day for the United States. I hope all who voted for him realize what they did. He's a socialist. He's for partial abortion. He's evil and will be the demise of the US!

  • Obama is marginally better than McCain/Palin, but that is the best that can honestly be said for him, & it's not saying a whole hell of a lot.

    He is a war-mongering corporate puppet. Look at his stated policies, intentions & views. Look at his advisors, voting record, political background, etc.

    REAL change will only happen when people ORGANISE! When they build strong, radical, active movements independent of the 2 virtually identical parties of 'neo-liberalism' and imperial war.

  • Go Obama!

  • from WHITE house to BLACK house.

    way to go USA.

  • I could not wait to vote for Obama - and yesterday I went as FAST AS I could to the voting place!

    O-BA-MA!

    O-BA-MA!

    O-BA-MA!

  • You haters are truly sad, america doesn't need this crap. Threats of violence, just ignorance. You crazies can start that mess if you want too!! Just IGNORANT, Jesus help these nuts. I think if you threaten to harm the president you should get a mandatory time (5 yrs or something) Maybe they stop these fools from typing this crap. They can trace you even if you're in a public libary. CIA is like that!!! Got love America.

  • RIGHT ON! I am SICK of these LOSERS who live off hate and greed! THE COUNTRY HAS SPOKEN IN LANDSLIDE NUMBERS!!! Crawl back to your basement, you nutters!!! LET LOVE AND FREEDOM RING!!!

  • Obama was facing a weak competition, but the White House will stay white anyway

  • Proud of the Americans....you guys rock!!!

    from Australia

  • LOVE.YOU.TOO!!! I've been canvassing for votes and last 3 days working the phones five hours straight each day calling the battleground states!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!! THE VAST MAJORITY OF AMERICANS STILL HAVE SOULS!!!!!!

  • You did a nice job!!! I've been hoping and praying that Obama wins and celebrated with you's. Keep up the spirits which Obama has lifted...The USA is back!!!

  • THANK YOU :)

    I've learned from talking directly with people at voters drives from way back when they said he couldn't beat Hillary Clinton that some people cling to negativity like a security blanket, either because it's the only thing they've known or because it makes them feel superior when their egos are fragile.

  • Well they shifted to positive now, who would've known he would become President eh? hehe ...just says that the US has progressed as a nation and can look beyond race. You have set a new standard for the rest of the world and the journey has only begun, keep raising the bars cos the world sees it!

  • Go Obama!

  • Does Israel give America money? For those of you who dont know, its the major corporations in America and the people that you do not see on your tv screens that have a major influence on this new 'puppet' you (Americans) have elected. May Allah Save Us All!!!

  • NO MATTER WHO 'APPARENTLY' RUNS THE USofA,THERE WILL BE NO CHANGE IN THE WHITEHOUSE IN TERMS OF DIRECTION, ONLY COMPLEXION! ISRAEL RUNS AMERICA THATS WHY OBAMA HAD TO ARDESS AIPAC. U.S. support for the state of Israel has cost American taxpayers nearly $3 trillion ($3 million millions) in 2002 dollars.

  • Republicans got owned by a black man.

    I bet that's insulting.

  • I want my Liberty back! All this talk of change is cheap.

  • I am afraid if Obama is too kind and humane , he be killed by mossad for sure like president kennedy in 1963...

  • Stalin,mosilini,castro all promised change,

    yes he is our president and we should respect the office, but time will show who the real racist are, and what damage is done to our country, the communist have always said we will fali from within, now they are saying obama is americas gorbechov, time will tell

  • as a brit. i am happy that obama has been elected as the new president, i think he will make a difference (and a good one at that). but there are still alot of rascists that would want him dead just because of the colour of his skin, which in my eyes is very sad :(

    Barak Obama '08

  • In your face Republicans!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ah Ahhh lol

  • I am so proud of my country! We finally picked a winner! Make sure to watch my response vid!

    YES, WE DID!!!!

    This is a victory for multiculturalism and diversity, and it is not only a victory for all Americans, but all the word! Let Bush go the history books in shame!

    --freedom fighter bundangbear

  • Poor people they dont know their country is ruled by lobbyists!

  • for racist whites yeah baby!!!!!!!!

  • loool

  • Congratulations USA!

    Germany loves your new president!!!

  • "the loser in the race"... lolz i like that..

  • The biggest thing we should be celebrating is ..... BUSH IS GOING !!!

  • now all we need is for someone to give bush a blowjob so we can finally impeach!!

  • Yes we did it, now there is a lot to do, lets unite and stand side by side !!

    Eyob

  • The elections were an obvious set up. Palin helped to seal the deal.

  • he's got hard days ahead. everyone is expecting a lot.

  • Good work Americans!

  • congratulations Obama... the eyes of the world are on you

  • McCain had a wonderful concession speech. If he had brought some of that during the actual campaign he would've had a better shot.

  • Fascinating. Truly fascinating... Little will change, but, a black man is in office of the US.

  • Some things will change, but not as dramatic as some people are expecting.

  • well come barak obama

  • yes! AMERICA have spoken!!

    it was not a white vs. black thing

    it was America vs. racist/greedy thing..

  • God wants this man to end the war and occupation in Iraq, to prevent imperialism continue killing innocent people, outside the United States from Iraq. Iraq to carry in my heart,always in my heart

  • *exhales with relief*

  • the hope for peace democracy!

    special in my country

    FUCK BUSH FUCK HIS POLITICS

    AND ALL HIS FOLLOWERS

  • Congratulations USA!

  • Different approach, same goal;NWO

  • God bless Barack Obama and God bless the United States of America.

  • classless to boo mccains loss speech. u may not like him but give the man the respect as he concedes defeat.

  • mccain supporters were actually booing barack obama when mccain mentioned obamas name as the next president

  • i know. so sad. i still can't help feel that there is something consistently juvenile about mccain supporters. To McCain's credit even he himself seems embarassed and impatient with the boos.

    Oh well...

    YES WE DID

    YES WE DID

    YES WE DID

    YES WE DID

    YES WE DID

  • Thank u allah for dis brother we need him as black man around da world.
