  • Epic dissapointment

  • Amazing how much different Cenk's tone is three years on. The intesting thing is, if you look at earlier in the nomination process he is much more suspicious, then seems to buy in completely, and now is totally off the Obama bandwagon. Too bad Obama broke half of his promises.

  • @rastamasta91 He bought the hope and change.

  • It's amazing what we were saying back then

  • LOL change.......

  • from the future: obama is still a prick but at least he inst a lying cheating daddys boy

  • this racism that was in america a few decades ago was indirectly responsible for Japan joining the Axis and starting WWII; think about that

  • many folks,as well as myself, are tired of all these politicians making promises that they will make it better.i am sick of it.egotistical maniacs who just want to make their millions,while people starv and are homeless without a job.epic fail.i can just see it right now,people are gonna vote for "zero the hero" and that would be any one of them.

  • Who won?

  • @randomjrr1422 What are you, on another planet?

  • Ooohh Yea, cuz he reallyy did alot to enfore the people responsible for torture

  • WHOOP OBAMA!!

  • Atari!? 2600 or 5200??

  • Wow i just thumbs upped that. I'm such a nerd

  • hehh yes yes you are :)

  • I'm a bit suspicious Cenk may be slightly biased towards Obama.

  • I dunno man, he seems like a McCain supporter to me.

  • it is

  • OMG...those jugs....my only reason to watch these videos.

  • LMAO

  • That fools' crazy!

  • Bless you guys for getting me thru the election. I was so afraid and am now so proud and happy. You kept my spirits up. That is very crucial.

  • whats the song at the beginning?

  • One Night In Bangkok by Murray Head

  • i love the way Ana works in an insight as Cenk is raving ..

  • At 0:15 you said "it's D-Day" what do you mean by that?

  • Got it... "Day of Days"

  • Where does the "Wasikta" sound bite come from?

  • does anybody know name of the song ??

  • you think YOU had anything to do with Obama getting elected???

    ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

  • obviously i am speaking for myself, how could i speak for others? But for myself i think that catagorizing people by ethnicity when you are casually adressing them is offensive; I would be damn annoyed if people started refering to me as a Scottish American. Im american, im skinny, and im white; these are descriptions, saying African American is an athnic catagory and furthermore a good chunk of "African Americans" are not black...sede what i mean?

  • agreed, the media definatly doesnt help, catagorizes everything and treis to make issues out of nothing for increased ratings.

  • Obama only won by 6 points it should've been 60 points

  • Now that you won, it'll all be your fault. Right???

  • Let me guess... you are a racist?

  • America is that Great!!!

  • Don't get hostile and hate on Cenk because I think his show represents the majority of Americans. His show is way better then Hanity and Colmes and Bill O'Reilley

  • TODAY is Christmas. Election Day was more like Xmas Eve, with all the anticipation of good things to come.

  • It's always a good idea to check a map if you're unsure. Turkey is in Asia and has always been there.

  • What the hell are you talking about, Asia is half in Europe and half in Asia. Holy crap, how can you possibly think it's in africa? Look at a damn map.

    Ugh. Some people don't even know how many sides a triangle has.

  • americans shop on shopping channels.see the latest exercise gimmick machine? "it can change you,no more ab workouts no more stress and strain,just change" and they buy it for $800 and find the machine is just junk.americans fall for that trick all the time

  • High five!

    == MISSION ACCOMPLISHED ==

  • Cenk, we finally did it!

  • Happy days here everyone!

  • I breathe some fresh air... we won!

    Forza Obama, congratulations for the whole world!

  • Talk about an overwhelming victory. And what a speech by Obama.

  • Cenk,

    I believe you have earned that Atari system now. Enjoy your Christmas present. :)

  • We did it, dude! I can't wait to see you tomorrow when you're done freaking out. I can't sleep. I'm so excited about our future. My 8 y/o boy stayed up WAY past his bedtime to watch what might possibly be the most historical event of his lifetime. The people have spoken. I'm still amazed that the thinking populace prevailed. The whole world celebrates tonight. We are at the dawn of a new age for our fine country! Can it be that the system finally worked?!?!? You rule.

  • YES WE DID IT.

  • I was waiting for a new video from TYT tonight, but I'm getting the feeling Cenk is too busy partying and going ass wild over the election. LOL! That'd be hilarious.

  • i believe u

  • I'm so happy for Obama.

    No MORE WAR!!!

  • No more war? HA! Obama sent more than 30,000 troops to Afghanistan.

    How did that no more war Obama go for you?

    Dumbass.

  • You helped this come through cenk, you did. I've been following TYT since, well since i've been in this APT. And thats been a couple years, so you and ana and jayar and all those fuckers thanks from cam out n colorado. Cause without fuckers like you this would not have happened.

    USA

  • you are seriously saying Obama wouldnt have become President without the help from Cenk?

    you realise that most TYT videos get around 5,000 - 7,000 views. And the vast majority of those viewers are Democrat voters anyway. (Because whenever I make fair and unbiased comments on TYT videos I always get several thumbs down).

    So TYT cant really claim to have swayed any voters.

    You really need to go sober up buddy, you have lost all perspective

  • You guys did it! YAY!

    America IS great!

    We are all partying down here in Australia.

    Congratulations and props for a magnificent closing!

  • Totally agree

  • The face of American people has changed . Congratulate America

  • congratulations obama!!!

  • An utter. Complete. Blowout. He whooped McCain's entire ass. It was like 2 to 1.

  • We're talking about a HUGE DEMOCRATIC MANDATE!

    Not even Bush/Cheney and the Republicans had this large type of mandate.

    THIS IS HUGE PEOPLE! HUGE!

  • ***hahaha,Pakys>>(arabs,medite­ranians,hispanics,pakys,irans,­indians,tukish,mideasterns,asi­ans.)

    **U pakys used to think ur better then the black african,,,hahaha

    **in egypt n all these places u used to moove from ur seat if a black african like obama's dad sat next to u,,,u stinking pakys,,,hahaha,,,u are the lowest ranking people on the planet.

  • yh because we were slaves rite? no that was you ur still at the bottom.

  • president Obama is here

  • WE closed. What a great historic day, for this country, for the world.

  • i just found out mccain has just spent about all he had left to talk about that preacher again and now the palin family has to take a bus home

  • lets not get too carried away with how big this is in world terms. America is far more race sensitive than most countires.

    Obama is now the face of a change because he is the first to benefit from the change. BUT, Obama is not the person who made the change.

    Obama has never faced the hurdles that people like Nelson Mandela and Jackie Robinson did.

    It is definately a huge day for African Americans, and America as a whole. Im just trying to keep some perspective

  • We fucking did it. We REALLY fucking did it.

    I admit... I underestimated Barack. More importantly I underestimated us Americans.

    Man I love America. The love is back.

    Cenk... you are one of the best... if not the best... spokesperson for us. Thank YOU for all that you have done!

    I will now become a member of T.Y.T.

    Let's keep it moving... we have A LOT of work to do!

    08'ama/Biden

    Mission Accomplished!

  • Well done America,the sane people of the U.S. have had their say at last.Big thank you from Ireland,have a great party,you deserve it.

  • so proud of american people.

    Great moment !!!! incredible !!!

    from France

  • Smart American and it shows.

    Congratulations on Obama's win :)

  • Murray Head and One Night In Bangkok. LOL! Nice song. As a Canadian, I'm relieved that we're not going to be living another four years next to an idiot trigger happy president.

    I thank everyone who voted for Obama.

  • And now once again without mistakes ^^

    You can't imagine how much peaople here in germany sat together and pray for this little wonder to let it happen.

    And you can't imagine how it was when it became true...

    Thank you america... Once again.

  • Philadelphia, Pa - 7:45am - Voter 56 - GOD BLESS America - I voted with my 7yr old son whom has gone to every election since his birth - I voted for Ronald Reagan in 1980 - am a blk man - when asked by my son I have taught him that both McCain and Obama are great men, but I think that Obama is the better man - he does not look at Obama as blk or McCain as wht - we shook hands with the people with McCain/Palin posters at our poling place, wishing them good luck (Obama supporters) -

  • President Barack Hussein Obama!!!!

    Oh My God! I LOVE the way that sounds!!!

  • You can'r imagine how muche peaople here in germany sat together, pray for this little wonder to let it happen and wait all the night.

    And you can't imagine how it was to here, it became true...

    Thank you america... Once again.

  • WE DID IT CENK!!!!

    WOOO-WHOOOO!!!!

  • Too bad Obama's a Christian, not a Muslim. And also, too bad you're very intolerant of Muslims. Not all Muslims are terrorists. In the bible it tells us not to judge because God is the supreme judge. You've broken that rule. Even if he was Muslim, so what? It sickens me how intolerant and disgustingly prejudiced some Christians are. If anyone is going to hell, it's them. They are the unfair ones who condemn us to their hell without their god's consent.

  • Obama is secretly an Atheist, and for that I love him like a brother. For I am also one of the elite thinkers of the world who cant be conned into irrational thinking, which is what ALL religions are.

    Obama knew there was no way a person who is both black and non-christian would be elected, so he pretends to have christian leanings

  • On this, OTOH, I think you are right on the money.

  • We are STILL a secular state that allows the freedom of religion.... You know... the U.S.A.!

    Not the Holy Roman Empire....

    Did you notice that you haven't been taken up in the Rapture?

  • He's not a fuckin Muslim, retard.

  • I don't get it? You say you are now a muslim state, but that you have forsaken god?! Which one is it? :P

  • Congratulations from Sydney Australia!

  • Thank you I hope we have a better relationship with rest of the world that's what I voted for.

    Australians have always been cool Obama 08'

  • sorry to break up this love fest with the facts of the matter.

    But this result will probably mean America will have a worse relationship with Australia.

    Australia are an ally and part of the war in Iraq, and now Obama wants to bail on that commitment.

    the truth is, America will now have a better relationship with the Muslim world, not with the whole world as you suggested

  • Sorry to dispel your ignorance with the facts of the matter.

    In Australia we recently dismissed a long standing conservative govt which got us invloved in the extremely unpopular war in Iraq. The Labor government, which also wants to get out of the quagmire, will find a much more agreeable ally in the new Democratic administration.

    Take it from someone who has an external perspective, the whole world expects a better relationship with the US now that you have made this intelligent decision.

  • you are currently fighting in the war

    your election wasnt recent at all

  • Wrong. Our government has removed all combat troops from Iraq.  Only training personell remain. Our election was just at the end of last year, if that's not recent to you, I suggest you are below the age of wisdom ;)

  • you are still in Iraq

    your election was over a year ago

    facts

  • We are not "fighting" (if you don't get the difference you don't get our politics), and since you want to be pendantic, the election was not over a year ago. After suffering more than a decade of conservative rule, a year ago is "recently" (which after all is a relative term).

    More to the point if Obama leaves Iraq it will only make it easier for the Labor govt to withdraw all troops from Iraq. You are simply wrong if you think the Labor govt would not prefer to work with a Dems.

  • your election terms are only 3 years long.

    They better hurry up and get out, its already been over a year

  • Once again, it has not been over a year, this this a simple fact go check the date. Secondly they were elected on a promise to withdraw from Iraq. They "kept" this promise by withdrawing all combat troops from Iraq, while saving Bush's face a bit. We call this 'politics.'

    You're grasping at straws, your original point that the current govt here would not prefer and get a better deal from the Dems is ridiculous. That fact that Rudd was forced to retain training people merely demonstrates it.

  • November 24

    you still have military personnel in Iraq, you can say they arent fighters all you want, fact is they are still there

  • OK not over a year

    I never said we didn't have military personel there. Au contraire I said it in my first post and in my second. Moreover this fact shows why your original point is so far off the mark. I raised the issue of combat troops when you said we were "fighting in Iraq" and as a cynical comment about keeping election promises

    Give it up buddy, I'm getting bored owning you. But I admire your ticker in arguing with an Australian lawyer about Australian politics and governance.

  • I dont think military personel stay in a war zone to draw pictures of the landscape.

    I believe the information you are giving is inaccurate, whether you are the one distorting the information, or your government is and you are just relaying it I am unsure of.

    Although you seem like a genuine person, so it is probably your government giving misinformation to make it look like they have kinda kept a promise to get out of Iraq.

  • Sorry you mistake your uneducated opinions with facts.A typical republican McCain is NOT the 44th president of the united states. Get Over It

  • is alittle grace in victory to much to ask?

  • The reason why I voted for Obama because I love America and i feel like were losing everything our jobs the war and respect in the world.I stand beside people that lost their 401ks from all backgrounds and we feel like you can't invest in the American dream because America has been sold now MADE IN CHINA.I believe maybe Obama and McCain will change Washington by putting country first.I was insensitive and out of line and I should have been respectful my apologies.

  • My Canadian heart says "WAAA HOOO!!"

    Now he won, people i know wouldnt die (some Canadians) and my AMerican BF wont be sent to the Illegal war!!!

    The econmy wonted be more wasted.

    THANKS SOOOOOOOOO MUCH FOR VOTING A GREAT CHANGE!!

    Now the world would respect Obama more than the "other" guy's

  • Yup, he can celebrate. Obama won the election, and became the 44th AND the 1st Black president in history of the U.S.A!!!!!!!!!!! I am excited, HOWEVER, i am now only looking forward to see how, if and when Obama will fix things. Yes, i was pullin for Obama...but now it is time to see what happens in the near future. Only time will tell if what we worked for, and what we were pulling for...was worth Electing Barack Obama as the next President of the United States of America. Go Obama!!

  • the fear of sarah palin is over. we can all sleep well tonight

  • sooooooooooo true

  • NIU celebrates!!!OBAMA!

  • YES WE CAN! YES WE DID! The youth of America FINALLY got off their butts and VOTED! CHANGE has come to America! Now do you see what is possible when we work together, and do the right things? Barack Obama IS MY PRESIDENT! OMG I am so F@$#king HAPPY!

  • the youth vote was actually down from 2004. the 65+ vote was well up though.

    but dont let facts get in the way, just keep making grandiose statements, based on your false delusions

  • You see, THAT is what happens when you spread lies and attack someone's character calling him terrorist/socialist/AntiAmeric­an instead of sticking to the issues. The American people are sick of that crap. Just because Rush/Hannity/Savage do it on their talk shows doesn't mean it will work with all voters. McCain lost his way and Palin was a gamble that didn't pay off. YES WE DID! OBAMA 08!

  • Atari... Time to play some Combat!

  • haha! it's on song!

    *grabs the joystick*

  • OBAMA: SnBR7MRRks0

  • YES WE CAN! I am so glad at this historical period where Obama has claimed the presidency and change that we can believe in has finally arrived.

  • Congratulations to all the people who worked so hard to get Obama elected. IT WAS A LANDSLIDE, the political map has changed, he is a NATIONAL PRESIDENT. The hate mongers days are numbered. America will finally have a LIGHT again after years of fear, hate, lies, scandals & delusion.

    You worked hard & it is great to see it payed off. The youth voters,worked hard & turned out in RECORD numbers.

    THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK! America finally has a future! Don't let the ignorant right take it away

  • OBAMA: SnBR7MRRks0

  • America can now be restored. As I watch C-Span & listen to the bitter delusional right-wing cult speak of doom & gloom & how Obama is a Muslim, terrorist & wasn't born on U.S Soil I think of how delusional and cult like they are.

    They don't see how bad things are today? That's called delusion. They look to rabid Republicans, Fox News Rush for their views on reality, that is a CULT!

    I will pay any SHEEP 3 GRAND if they can prove the lies they spread starting with the fake birth cert. WAITING

  • I think they are hanging that sign right now.

  • hahaha, its christmas mornign in AMERICA, haha fuck mc caine, that fuckin hick

  • MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Glad you got that Atari!

  • man never thought i would say that one day but damn it i wish i was american today while watching obama's speech ... this guy is a genius but damn he have a lot to do... cleaning bush stuff... obama is the president of the world period lol

  • I want more commentary NOW!!

  • I feel so sorry for Obama. He has to clean up Bush's mess. But I know he can do it.

  • I feel really happy about his great success, except that he is a member of the DP the most terroristic party on earth.

    I just hope he will get rid of fogs covering the world, and will become our TRUE HERO.

    Lots of cheer from Okinawa, Japan !!

  • Best. Christmas. Evah.

  • Hurray for America!!!

  • thanks guys. we did it!

  • ***only the black African can put those racist's in there place.

  • WOHOOO!!!! WE WIN!!!!!!!

  • Sarah Palin has gone back to Alaska, walking with a dinosaur.

    John McCain has flown back to Hanoi Hilton.

    He says he'll try to fly more planes, will restart the Vietnam War, and promises to win this time. :(

  • wow obama won. i voted for mccain. i was hoping he drive america into the ground like his action on policies were gonna do. but obama has to come and save america and make it prosper. by the way i really voted for obama lol.

  • We did it! America is moving forward again for the first time in 8 years.

    Obama-08!

    **Agree? rePast isOK.

  • Wow, I expected the population to vote for idiocy again, but I was blown away. Thanks, America, for showing me that this really can be a reasonable and great country to live in!

    And also thanks for a fair election with no screw ups...

  • **only the black African can put those racist's in there place.

    **thank god or luck for the the black African,he plays one of the most important balancing part of mankind.

  • I just got my Republican Neo-Conservative terrorist hunting permit... hmmm

    FoxNews' Hannitty and O'Reilly must be sucking each others' sorry loser cocks right now. :(

    LOL.

  • Obama has just made an announcement

    Rev Jeremiah Wright will be Secretary of State, William Ayers the Secretary of Defence.

  • Grow up.

  • Ha! Ha! Granpa and the crazy lady lost!! You lose!

  • I didnt lose nutting yo

    Im a big Obama supporter, always have, get you facts right

  • John McCain and Sarah Palin just made an announcement.

    They will a porn film together.

    It's called DRILL, BABY, DRILL.

  • comments like that are uncalled for, didnt you listen to Obama's speech, it is time for unity, the fighting is over

  • corny

  • For the first time in 8 long years, I am once again PROUD to be an AMERICAN.

  • now i have a president i can be proud of!!!

    YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

    landslide bitch!!!

  • that's right, don't be a sore ass!

    THE BEST MAN WON

    Obama !!!!

    yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaah!!!

    sorry racist ignorant pigs!!!

  • id pay to see sean hannity get his ass kicked who wants to chip in lol

  • obama 1st black president has won 2008 election

  • niggers are FREeeee im black by the way

  • I thought that niggers were freed back in the 19th century...

  • obama won

  • If he actually does revert Bush Co. legislation (Patriot Act 1-2, Military Commissions Act, etc), I'll give him props, He'll have earned my respect. If the past says anything about the future - it won't happen. Meaning, once it's gone - it tends to stay that way.

    I haven't really heard him speak on our monetary system - which I would like.

    100 bucks say we leave Iraq, but end up somewhere else in the middle east. The "hidden hand" has too much invested. No peace when U(S) depend(s) on war. :(

  • 00:23hrs Eastern time. President elect Obama is here. Let Change Begin... It's 05:25hrs in the UK and I'm shattered, TYT excellent show. 2 hours to go! Glad I've taken the 5th off!
