  • wow. look at the maturity and class at 0:16. They start booing. Wow. FUCK YOU

  • the booing from an ALL WHITE crowd is the reason he lost

  • McCain would have made a Great president.

  • @JosephStalin11 lol. suck it. his days are coming to an end. ur repub days in office are over bitch.

  • Too bad Sarah Palin was brought in to his campaign. I think he lost any real hope of winning with her.

  • Moreeeee Ben!!!!!!

  • this election tells the story of obama's presidency.

    who do you think is on the right side of history?

    the angry mob? or

    the man speaking the truth??

  • i loved Obama but then he ended up bombing at being the president

  • Dude, he's been in office for *10 months*! At a minimum, he's got more than 3/4 of his term left; let off your judgement of his presidency for at least another 10 months!

  • HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I LOVE this. I especially like the pained look of Sarah Palin and all of those LOSERS who hate Obama. Sweet yummy agony! Woo Hoo.

  • I think Mccain is actually a very good man. I think he fell into the campaign trap of mud slinging and smearing, and traded in his values and pride for victory, or at least attempted victory. Sure, you HAVE to sound graceful in losing. But I have a great respect for Mccain.

  • such poor losers republicans...booing when losing ...LOSERS.....Also look at the audience I dont see one single non-white person ...compare that to the audience on Obama crowd THAT is the REAL America

  • oh wow whites will always be horrible

  • Stop that. As an African American i find that really lame and offensive because it's the same intolerance just on another side of the coin, the less flipped side, and it validates the fear that many Caucasians (and other elasticities) feel whenever they take a stance on anything race related; fear of being unjustly branded a racist-which the fear creates real racism and the cycle begins.

  • Agreed, I'm Caucasian and I respect ALL races and cultures. With God's will, all racists will burn in hell. Obama rocks.

  • My aunt was there lol

  • Don't Dream, It's Over!

  • Nor is why most people voted for George W Bush the first time, they preferred somone they would enjoy a beer with. Or JFK who people thought was very attractive. or Hilary Clinton because she was a female or Ronny reagan because he was charismatic and funny. Ike because he was a WW2 hero. Are any of these qualifications? Popular vote allows popular whims to have a factor. And consider how many people voted against Barack or any of these people because they were these things, cancels it out.

  • so if peopel voted for Obama just because he was balck...why did people vote for Hilary and Palin? Because they were women? Mccain because he was white? and Mitt Romney because he was a Mormon? or Mike Huckabee because he was a Christian fundamentalist minister?

  • Many African Americans voted B.O. I am a salesman, and sometime ago I had African American customer. Then my supervisor who is also African American tells my customer.

    Supervisor: Our President is black, hahaha, I am so happy.

    Customer:  Yeah I hope our next president will be black.

    This is "qualification":-)

  • Well it has been a while since i have checked youtube. But Not only has Obama's ratings dropped dramatically, but our economy has gotten worse. Can someone say, oops? But its sickening that you just wanted him to be black,(note the Dr. Kings Drem) I am sure that Dr. King would be smart enough to see that thats racist. And excuse my language, but FUCK YOU. Do not call me a nigger, you Racist Bitch.

  • Well, lessee here - if by "dropped dramatically" you mean "is a strong leader" 67%, "effective government management" 59%, "understands America's problems" 66% - Yeah, those numbers are so totally in the basement.

    And the DOW looks like crap too - last week it hit a six-month high.

    The rate of unemployment is slowing - banks are beginning to repay their TARP money.

    Gee, crazy, you're right - President Obama has run this country into the shitter.

  • mcain obama ha there all puppets for big corp's the system is crap it's bull shi$ for power and greed

  • john maccain is a true man who knows that he has lost I wish we had mor maccains Obama Obama

  • You see, if there are a couple of raciest does not mean everybody is raciest. I strongly support McCain's policies. What can we say about Collin Power betrayed his own party. If white man has done something like this, he would be labeled as a raciest. Origianlly I am not from the US, and I understand diffrences between party VALUES! Many Americans understand neither role of government and market economy. That's why the country is getting weaker. US $ is getting cheaper out of country.

  • Maybe, just maybe Colin Powel endorsed President Obama because he was the right man for the job...

  • I hope solder Powell knows he is doing. Guy who has no executive experience and does not understand basic Economics 101 and global business (I noticed that during the elections). China bought US treasury bonds(now Russia and Brazil wants it). It means that US treasury dep. does not have # and it has to pay interests to bondholder countries. Who is gonna pay for that? new generation of taxpayers. In other words, American taxpayers have to work for China, Russia, etc. Then you blame again republic

  • I am not sure how old you are, but I remember back in 1998, Americans were expected a war against Iraq. I remember my American friends used to say, "Crazy Hussein wants bomb us". You just have to realize that Bush is not CIA agent. He believed what he was told by intelligence. He took his job in wrong time (2001 Recession and the 9/11 attack). Those people are wrong who believe that being Republican you have to be wealthy, a war minded person and raciest.

  • "You just have to realize that Bush is not CIA agent"

    No, pgthunker, you have to realize that Dubya's daddy was Director of the freakin' CIA. But I'm sure all those connections vanished, right?

    "Those people are wrong who believe that being Republican you have to be wealthy, a war minded person and raciest."

    Maybe not, pg, but chances are really good that if you're a wealthy, war-minded racist that you have a GOP bumper sticker on your SUV - if you're a poor war-minded racist, on your F150.

  • Moose hunting redneck.

  • a good loser, he just recieved my respect

  • hey you, you are a loser.... Go take drugs and shut your mouth:-)

  • Wow, he is so disingenuous.

    "Damnit, we had everyone thinking they shouldn't vote coz they won't do jack shit, and now they don't believe that any more!"

  • I cant express how happy i was when John McCain has lost, listening to him is like listening to bush, listen to audio without picture

  • Very gracious concession by Mccain. I respect the dignity and good spirit he showed in losing. x

  • I just wish that crowd of supporters that night showed that same class and respect.

  • "EPIC FAIL" AHAHHA

  • lol "booooooo"

    what fuckin retards...

  • exactly if it were a black man or woman with a 17 year old kid with a baby it would have been the joke of the century ....it shows how sad america is

  • lulz - Are you calling anti conception assasination? So every guy that masturbates is a modern day Jack the Ripper?

  • "The American people have spoken.....and they have spoken clearly"

    Thats what was going through every republicans head that night "we fucked up bad"

  • I can't forgive McCain for introducing the country to Sarah Palin.

  • co-sign

  • It would of been hell if McCain won, Plain was just the gate to hell

  • Although I did not vote for the man, I actually felt sorry for him. I truely believe (as does my husband) that he definitely would have won the ticket if he had never put Palin onboard. She destroyed that campaign royally!!

  • ....it's a funny thing how the truth somehow managed to come out when he picked her -- that they are both complete morons

  • Hahahaha...you are so very right!!

  • no, he wouldn't have actually. Barack was always in the lead before she came on.

  • So many numbskulls gathered together...EPIC FAIL!...lmao!!!

  • I'm glad that the OLD McCain is back.

  • i'll remember you said that

  • HA HA!

  • If Mccain would have spoke this good during the election he might have won.

  • Even his supporters lack class! Pooing??? How immature! Take a rest McCain. For those who think this is such a "great" speech - please, anything pre-written can be "great". He sounds like an old fool when he speaks without a pre-written speech. I'm Canadian and I think the U.S. is LUCKY to have Obama as a President - especially after 8yrs of such a joke as Bush.

  • Bush is bad... Bush is awful... this is what idiots think. What Obama would you if he was a president from 2001-2008?

  • do you want to make sense in your comment? I think you mean what would Obama have done if he were president from 2001-2008?

  • since you understand economics and foreign relations so well why don't you run for public office?

  • I am not good orator like Obama:-) There are many good specialists (in terms of education and experience) in America, but those people are either boring or distrustful in public.

  • Most people judge your personality and ideology, which is not part of qualification for executive office. I dont think someone with basic knowledge of economics would oppose free trade and high taxes on companies. Obama even did not know that Germany was not member of UN Security Council. He even could not do his family research, according to him his grandfather liberated Auschwitz during the WWII, but in point of fact Russians liberated the death camp.

  • I 100% get what you're saying but, the issues that you brought up just seem really, not important... for lack of a better word. It just seems to me that and I would say this about republican presidents also, every politician can't and will not know EVERYTHING even though we would want them to. I've given GWB a pass on MANY things he didn't know because well, it happens. But that's how people vote, whether it's wrong or right, we vote for people we best see ourselves in... SARAH PALIN????

  • Yes, many things are not important, but look. If Reagan and Bush had hired so many tax cheaters, both would be shot to death. Palin? She got an executive experience and she is expert in energy. We did not know much about her, but as people learnt about the Alaska governor, next day American media and members of youtube wrote unpleasant things about her. Come on

  • Fair dinkum mate, well people can complain about the media all they want but and I gave Palin a chance at the beginning but it still doesn't negate that fact that certain questions and comments she made and failed to answer just showed to me that she wasn't ready for VP if not President. She has her positives but that still doesn't make her the perfect choice, same can be said about Obama but from my view, he proved himself. Palin not the full quid, sorry mate:-/

  • By taxing corporations you're eliminating producers surplus and hence causing prices to go up, hence eliminating consumer surplus, high taxes on corporations just cause people to lose jobs and increase prices, taxes on corps shouldnt be high

  • I can tell you studied economics:-) Yep, you are right! That's why people wonder why jobs are shipped out of a country.

  • Exactly, if we overcharge corporations here they will look elsewhere for cheaper labor

  • By the way, many Americans do not know that many developing and undeveloped countries charge only 0% - 1% corporate taxes. If I was a CEO of the company in America, I would run my corporate business in Eastern Europe. Limited taxes, educated and hardworking labor.

  • Listen to those rude supporters! They're booing Obama's name! At least the RESPECTFUL Democrats weren't booing McCain's name when Obama mentioned he lost. Grow up! I think you Republicans are old enough to be out of diapers by now. They sound like preschoolers

  • This is the JOHN MCCAIN I KNOW. I AM REALLY PROUD OF THIS GREAT AMERICAN. This is the very BEST SPEECH of his life. He's always a GOODMAN!

  • Yes, we're so proud of a LOSER!

  • Oh yeah.

  • I voted for Obama, but I must say after I saw this I have a great deal of respect for McCain. He is a great politician, it's just a shame he got caught up in the political toilet bowl in this election. I'm proud to have this man in the Senate, and would love to see him and Obama working together in the future. What an election!!! America the Great!!!

  • Best speech from Mccain. The ignorant audience ruined it though.

  • wow i did not know how people can be such assholes....while he is giving a speech everybody starts booing

  • The speech was awesome, period

    THE HEAT

  • thats the best talking i ever heard from mcain

  • WHY are people so close-minded to solely judge the potential of a person based on what they have or have not done???

    REALISE it may have NO relevance to whatever they can achieve.

    I'm not advocating anybody to be blindly optimistic, but look, have FAITH in our president.

  • Man, this concession speech was symbolic of his whole campaign. His whole campaign was a concession speech. Conservatism wasn't in the race, and thus McCain lost.

  • wow you don't listen to talk radio do you?

  • Of course I do. Rush Limbaugh particularly. I was quoting Rush because I agree with him.

  • I'm so proud of McCain as he is still a great man who deserves our respect. Let no Obama supporter stain McCains name.

  • No obama supporter can "stain McCain's name." He spent the better part of the last two years doing that to himself. Don't let the beauty of this speech force you to forget how wretched, ugly, lowbrow and below-the-belt he was during the campaign. I can respect mccain. But he ran a shitty campaign based on fear and xenophobia.

    You just can't be that ugly and win. Period.

  • I hope he'd win Arizona. it was white that last night..

  • Yeah Obama!

  • Goo McCain!!!!!

  • mccain crowds always boo'ed way too much

  • This is the best speech I've ever heard McCain give.

  • He did an awesome speech. And yes went out in style. From south Georgia, we love you and hope you and obama and all of us can work together to better the U.S. and the world...

  • fuck everyone of those goddamn hicks who have no respect obama, they clearly all have issues at recognizing the better cnadidate won and theyre dumbasses, if obama had lost i bet no one wouldve booed if he mentionded Mccains name

  • Yes sir you are the last of a dying breed. Your children and there children will not know ignorance like yours. Obama has help pass several very important pieces of legislation, made it so the DNC can no longer accept lobbyist money, he also just happened to unite a nation as I've never seen in my lifetime. Sorry bro you fail and the rest of your life you and those like you will be secluded from the rest of OUR (which you apparently are no longer a part of) great nation

  • Mmmm,I didn't know that the white people who made up 63% of Obama's voters qualified as being jigaboos.

  • Fuck yeah OBAMA!!!

  • Kudos for McCain for taking a crushing defeat like a man. He is more classier than Bush in accepting defeat. he earned my respect that night for accepting his loss and not contesting any of the states.

  • BRAVO! What a classy speech...he got major pts for that one.

  • McCain's kissing ass so he can keep his job.

  • umm up yours?

  • I don't think that's true. He'd be a senator even if the speech wasn't so gracious still.

  • way too many drunk hillbillies at that speech

  • :))

  • From: McCain, John

    To: Rove, Karl

    I lost. Thanks for lending me your freaks. You can have them back now.

  • Alright.... That is kind of violent. I loved watching this speech, just to see the old white man cry because all we have ever had in office was an old white man, but the majority of people in America wanted this man to be president(Obama). Obama would not want one race to reign over the other, that is what we are trying to get past..........Did you not see his race speech?

  • You're stupid, sorry

    Doesn't matter what they look like or how old they are, It's about the content.

    So who cares if there were 1 milion more "old white men" in the office, aslong as they're doing their job, and doing it right.

  • ok McCain is not a racist and no this is not a black world this is America and we are all colors it sounds like you have issues with reality and are promoting your own delusions. Be cautious you are sounding like a racist not McCain.

  • You are pathetic, and it is people like you that will make President-Elect Obama's job harder as well as ours. McCain is an American hero and nobody can take that honor away from him. just have some class huh?

  • u r lucky, if u won, u in fact was losin, but u won by letting a better man rule us.

  • HOORAY! TO OBAMA

  • McCain LOOOOOOSER! HE!HE!

  • Obama deserved to win the election. We don't need any more republicans in the white house anyways. People living out of their means need to be taxed and punished for their sins. LOL

  • A fight of two qualified candidates. Whoever says Obama is a "N-gger" and thus isn't fit to run our country should leave, the only place that you should be allowed to live in is the bottom of the oceans. On the other hand, if you say that McCain is not qualified because he's old or because he's white, the same to you. This speech shows the spirit of both men.

  • Whats stupid is when Mccain said "Its a proud day if youre African American." This makes no sense what so ever. It should be a proud day for those who elected him. His color should have NO reason at all on why you voted for him. Thats racist in itself to even say its good we have a colored president

  • I totally agree! I am a white woman who voted for Barack Obama and he's MY president, too! We all have reason to be proud..we were smart enough to see through the crap McCain threw out..his choice of Palin was insane and transparent..."well, a broad is a broad" and women will vote for her. NOT NO WAY...that female is downright scary...and if she is the future of the GOP..well..they are really desperate and scraping the bottom of the barrel..she is the best thing for the Democrats:)

  • yea, obama is way smarter than McCain, I mean, it must take a lot of wits to get retards' votes like yourself, haha, yep, obama made mccain look like the bad guy, thank god I aint staying in this stupid country where white people hate themselves! XD good bye america, once I do my share of freeloading, just like all of the niggers, and spics, I'm outa here!

  • You can say what you want about Palin but saying anything about Obama is racist. I just picked these two gems from you lovely democrats.

    'Whats the difference between Palin's vagina and her mouth? only one retarded thing came out of her vagina.' How nice, pissed of she didn't kill her baby at birth

    How about this ' I'd rape her and beat the sh*t out of her and then she can buy her own rape kit'. Yes raping a candidate is OK as long as its Palin. If it was Michelle we would be up in arms.

  • austin9678,

    That is not what McCain said. Picture you are black and 50 years old and for those 50 years you never thought your country would see itself to electing a black president; are you really going to tell me you would not have a certain pride (maybe even if you did not vote for the black candidate)? All McCain said was he could understand that pride and Bush said about the same thing. I also understand that feeling and it is not racist mention it.

  • The Republican party has been reduced to an extremly angry small town, know-nothing, anti-intellectual, anti-bipartisan, white party. The Republican Party was classy and bipartisan under president Ronald Reagan!

  • Obama won, Mccain lost

    leave it at that, the better man won!

  • old traitor to his country cockjaw mccain is a bitch.Obama won in a landside because Mccain is such a fucking pussy ass cunt.Poor people that make over 250k will have a tax hike poor you.

  • I firmly believe that John McCain would have been a better President, but Barrack Obama will still lead our nation well...

  • we all know mccain is the true president we need

  • Lion King baby

    McCain = Scar

    His nutbag racist supporters = The Hyenas

    Watch the ending folks.

  • That's the best analogy I've heard all week!

  • im pissed that republicans go on youtube

  • I think obama rules!!

    BUT they're BOTH really good men.

  • John why Sarah????????????//

  • McCain finally the real him comes forth I still he should have picked Palin she only has a Journalism degree and she had to go to 4 colleges to do that.

  • Sen. McCain ran a tough campaign, albeit slanderous and misguided. Still he regained my respect by going out on a high note. This speech is pure class. His supporters, however, are downright tacky in this video, and even worse on youtube.

  • Yeah, McCain probably felt embarrased by them. It just wasn't his time. He messed up with choosing Palin trying to make history with a woman vice pres but at least choose one wisely. People will remember that he lost by a landslide to the first African-American president. It strikes home for me since I too am mixed.

  • sarah palin hindered his campaign imo

  • The whole booing thing is disturbing. Who does that? Why can't they be respectful and accept the defeat. That's what we did when Bush got into office. Notice in Obama's speech, he talks highly of McCain and the people in the crowd clap for McCain. I mean, come on...too much hostility.

  • yea i booed too

    haha!

    he shouldnt have won!

  • Barack Vagina

  • Obama won... his supporters are happy and do not see McCain as a "roadblock" to what they want. McCain lost... his supporters are mad and see Obama as a Roadblock to their beliefs. Obviously all of the far right are there anyways.

  • lolwut

  • omabra rocks

    :D:D:D:D:D:D

    so fuck ya'll dat dunt think thats

    xxx

  • Watching Obama speak throughout the campaign, I sensed an aura of greatness about him that I haven't sensed from any other candidates from the last 30 years. McCain, on the other hand, projected himself as just another politician talking out of both sides of his mouth. Obama will be a great president.

  • I'm gonna go ahead and agree with you on all counts. Obama's campaign was about bringing the country together regardless of our differences. McCain's campaign was very divisive and negative. I am very optimistic about the future of this country.

  • ill agree with u mccains was negative, but i saw at least 20/25 negative obama adds too...

  • Jordandixon666: check this out I know the american history more than Americans because i love this country .

    the native American or socalled indians these POEPLE are thre real AMERICANS but they were MASACERED by the "white".

    also if the White call themeselves american why the BLACK don't call themselves american istead of African American.

    All the free MODERN AMERICAN who voted for OBAMA thank you .

  • You act as if you're the only one in the world that knows that we massacred the freaking Native Americans. That's almost common knowledge.

  • heard of irish americans or italian americans? Plenty of whites don't just use American. But when they do it is is not challenged as much.

  • thank you Jr... exactly what I said!

  • hmm, why are they called AFRICAN americans? werent "white" americans from british colonies? shouldnt they be British Americans? im not very good at history and im not from america but i think they were british, correct me if im wrong

  • you got a good point... but hopefully we can get past our country's racial history and simply see each other as fellow americans. It sounds kinda cliche but still i think that Barrack Obama becoming president shows that we are getting there.

  • He did an awesome speech. And yes went out in style. From south Georgia, we love you and hope you and obama and all of us can work together to better the U.S. and the world...

  • well to the guy below me... how can you say ur not racist when ur saying stupid stuff about him having iraqi relatives? seriously. get over it. he won.

  • wtf mccain was totaly different from bush he wants to sent people to war and win so we could win when NObama want to stop war and let iraq bomb us (probably by relitives) and he wont do any thing about it. Obama is lucky kinda ok he had it but you have to relize (im rot rasist i am not trying to be mean) that most black people voted for him cause hes balck they dont even pay attention to the campain or who they are ty

  • Mattdawg: Pissing off religious fanatics by invading their countries in the Middle East isn't a great method of stopping wars, you know. That's kind of what made Al Qaida turn on us (since we indirectly created the organization by funding bin Laden in the 60s).

    Iraq has a government put in place by us. Give me one good reason why they would bomb us now, especially since they have NO aircraft or other capabilities to bomb us with.

    You, sir, are a moron.

  • WOOOOT OBAMA!!!

  • That's all good and fine and blah, blah, blah ad nauseum. This is the TWENTY FIRST CENTURY!!! We should be well past this. But what is being woefully overlooked here is the fact that Obama is not merely "afro american" if we still have to label people. His mother is white. And for the most part he was raised by her and his grandmother. God rest her soul. These were the greatest influences in his life. To continue with this line of value system is to validate racism and to give it weight.

  • I do not like this word AFRICAN AMERICAN .

    What the fuck these black guys they born in america they are Americans.

  • me too, we are bi-racial or black

  • My wife was born in Nigeria, she is an African American. We were always considered black. When I went to Africa 20 years ago, that the first time anyone referred to me as American and my 5 years living in Nigeria made me realize that I was an American, despite the greater society wanting to classify me.

  • 2:22 he say's looks forward to helping Obama. Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't republicans saying Obama is a terrorist? well if they have the nerve to say that then that makes John McCain a terrorist by association. He clearly say's he intends to help Obama. I don't really believe it, I just wanted to put a spin on the bullshit the republicans were trying to sell to the american public, because it can go both ways

  • Both sides made things up during the campaign. The democrats basically said that McCain was Bush; that stuff just happens. Besides, he needed to accept defeat with class.

  • Dude, McCain was Bush. The cornerstone of the Bush Presidency was the Bush Tax cuts and the War, bith counts McCain fully supported.

    Today Ayers said he barely knew Obama and Rev Wright admitted that Obama always disagreed with his views on race. Case closed

  • Oh im aware of the slander that goes on, but so many republicans hung their hats on the fact that Obama is a terrorist, I just thought someone should bring up the fact that their candidate say's he's looking forward to working with him, if you use those peoples rule that would make John McCain a terrorist by association. After one of the debates the next day they attended a dinner together, once again using their rule that would make him a terrorist by association from that point on.

  • oh and prodigyat9, BILL CLINTON HAD AT LEAST 10 CHANCES TO KILL OSAMA BEFORE 9/11 YOU DUMB FUCK. So dont blame everything on Bush.

  • The Truth.

  • Mackattack,

    So Bush did not know about those 10 "chances" Clinton had? One would think he would step right up to the plate and get the bastard even before we were attacked again. That would have show Clinton for sure! The only president we had for the last 8 years was Bush and he failed to get Bin Laden.
