Damn Obama's jump shot look like Michael Jordan's They should put Obama on the Knicks so he can change their team. He probably got a dunk and a crossover too lol
I find it how people are attacking him for having this video. "He's saying we should vote for him because he can shoot a three-pointer, what a jerk." If that's the point you think he's made, re-think. The point is that he's human.
Well, to his credit, he did say it was on a dare. And that people were skeptical. I took that to mean those who say he is not "black enough". I may be wrong. Also the "That's how you act under pressure" line was classic Obama.
Well, this just proves that he's a REGULAR GUY! Not a politician like all the others. Just a guy who can, you know, shoot a three pointer, banter with the TV talking heads, etc. Yep, a real REGULAR GUY. That means he should be president. Right.
With the level of logic that you displayed in your comment, there is no way that you could be a president lest another bush-like retard ruin the country.
Mr. Obama runs for president not because he can shoot, but because he has the desire and the plan to change the country for the better, and he is willing to tour the continent to convince the nation that he can make it happen.
It doesn't matter that if you are a white kid or that if you could shoot or not, what matters is that if you have the same desire to change things for the better, a sound plan to realize your ideas, and the same devotion to this task that you are also willing to convince the nation that you can do it, then you should also run for president as long as your status is eligible.
Im impressed his form wasnt bad....kinda shows he's human i could see him in his younger days young and playin pick up games talkin trash back forth with others...i like it makes him connect wit me more
I really think it is pathetic that a presidential candidate has to drain a 3-pointer just to prove he is "black enough." Are you serious? This is the U.S. media capitalizing on racial stereotrypes... let the man speak, he is brilliant! Who cares if he is a "baller?"
Obama is the only Democrat who seriously has fought and continues to fight against corruption and power of lobbyists. Obama is not just charismatic, honest and intelligent person but he also has a good bi-partisan record and true vision for new America. Vote for Obama is vote for hope and change.
and they say he's not black enough. lol. I love Barack, and I loved how even though they asked him to talk about the shot, he still got onto talking about the school and the changes that needed to be made there. He is an inspiration, and my next president. Obama 08
am i the only one that wants Al Gore to run again?? Wouldn't Al Gore as president and Barack as Vice be a great ticket??? Then after 4 yrs. Barack can run for president once he has more experience... Love Barack though. he is amazing.
Another Neo-Con who could have video of Obama pulling a kid out of a burning building and still say: "How heavy could that kid be? And look he is only walking? that's not so dangerous". Take your tired politics and go back to march 20th, 2003 where they belong.
Obama 08* indeed. With all this Bush Clinton Bush Clinton pattern, doesent it make you people kinda feel like these two families own the country if patterns like this continue. It kinda feels to me like they own the country. Dont let it happen
that man is going to make history... i cant wait. my question to the amercian people is do we want to repeat history with a bush clinton bush clinton again. i feel the answers is hell no. go obama... u make me proud brother.
