  • BarackObamadotcom, THANK YOU! Thanks. Thank You! Thank you. Thank YOU.

  • Obmamaaaaaaaaaaa<3 Mrs. Fray

  • seriously made me cry! i was lucky enough to be present at this historic event! i waited almost two days ina line outside the excel to get to see him and it was worth the wait!! i didn't regret it for one moment! he filled the largest venue in the area and people were filling the streets of st. paul to watch it on the big screen outside. much like they did in time square when he gave his speech at the DNC!! simply amazing! a true moment in history!!

  • I've watched almost every single presidential speech this year from all of the candidates. I could barely stay awake through McCain's. and hillary's just made me bored. But Barack Obama's Speech gave me shivers in my spine. When he finished this speech and the entire audience cheered and applauded for him that was the most awesome moment i've ever experienced and i was only watching it on TV :]

  • Test

  • Hey, what's with the homophobic reference in the prior comment!?!? I also love his message and his passion and his courage. He really is inspiring us to come together and build on our better selves.

  • I'm a man, but I can say without any fear of being called a fag that I love this man...he is the shit foreal.

  • This guy makes me really really really feel proud to be an American. It's a wonderful feeling.

  • thank u toooooooooo senator

  • barack obama kept saying thank u

  • I was there and was able to make it in. That was the biggest line I had ever seen. I was only in the middle and we were blocks away from the actual building. If his speech wasn't inspiring (which it definately was), seeing all those people waiting in line said it all.

  • Let's face it: Barack Obama inspired us.

  • All of us, let's vote.

  • hopefully obama can change americas image all over the world because to be honest now is pretty bad

  • I was there they could have filled the arena twice there were so many people. The republicans wont be able to get a fraction of that in there.

  • hes so coooooool!

  • how can you not love this guy?

  • what's that song playing in the background at the end?

  • " The Rising " by Bruce Springsteen. In this weeks Rolling Stone artical .Barack said he keeps Bruce Springsteen on his ipod .

  • Which may be a joke at the Republicans' expense, as they (I think it was Reagan?) wanted "Born In The USA" as their campaign song at one time, obviously not realising what it was about haha.

  • haha this is a slap in the face to republicans who are haveing there convention in this very arena bet obama has a bigger crowd vote obama 08

  • i luv this man

  • My buddy and I got there pretty late and for the next couple hours, people were still making their way to the back of the line. I'm not lying when I say -- not one person had a frown on their face as they were walking to the back of the line, almost certainly not to get into the rally. It was like nothing I'd ever seen before.

    God bless Obama. God bless America.

  • GOD BLESS AMERICA!

  • YES

    YES

    YES

  • Yes, go barack..spread the word...

    It's just a matter of time come Nov. GE

    Nothing can stand in the way of millions calling for CHANGE!

    Barack '08

  • i was there such an amazing speech, so worth the 3 hours in line!!!

  • i was there, such an amazing speech, so worth the 3 hours in line!!!

  • wow.

  • This speech gets so epic at 25:50...

    If he wins, I am joining the military to help enforce his mandate, that's how much I believe in him and his earnest desire to make this nation and this world better.

    And if time allows, and a if President Obama should ask, National Service in between tours of duty.

  • OBAMA OBAMA OBAMA!!

  • I was there that night in St.Paul. I waited in line for 6 hours to see him. Even thought it was freezing(this summer has been cold in Minnesota). That is how much he has inspired me. I'm even thinking about becoming a politician, so I can change peoples lives for the better. More people in Washington need to start seeing the world the way Barack Obama does! When he becomes president I think the world will become a better place for everyone.

    You can hear me scream "We love you barack!"

    -Jesus, how inspiring is that? It sounds so presidential.

  • studer studer um um to to to toni toni tonite

  • Obama is the best person for the job...this coming from an Australian living in 'stralia

  • from here in Spain... this is your guy.. the best choice for a leader in any country.

    Finally a leader the US deserves.

    Please don't let them do to him what they do to all truly inspirational leaders. Don't let the big forces that drive US foreign policy assassinate him.

    Obama, you seem truly noble, a deserved leader.. a leader your country as well as the whole world needs... o

  • In my country (Gabon), everywhere I go, people are talking about Barack, they're really amazed by him, we really hope he'll be the next President of your country because at the same time, he'll be the president of the world.

    Hope is alive for the world...

    Marc (from Libreville, Gabon).

  • The American people really has to understand that the world is watching what you're doing, here in Africa, in every country, people are watching and listening, From Senegal, Mali, Benin, Cameroon, Gabon, to South Africa, Egypt, Nigeria, Niger... People are talking and we're very excited about what this man is doing in your country, people love the idea that your country is able to do what's impossible in any other other country.

  • We love you Obama!

  • I had the choice of going to either New York or Chicago to get my Master's. I chose Chicago. Before I'd even arrived, I was a staunch Obama supporter. It's been absolutely wonderful to be in the Windy City this year, during this primary season, the hometown of Mr. Barack Obama. He is the honest, compassionate, intelligent leader this country not only NEEDS...it DESERVES! Goodbye, Bush...don't let the door hit you on the way out. Hello President Obama and a brighter day.

  • Wow. I'm a believer.

    Obama in 08!

  • socialist.

  • Thank YOU, Obama!

  • On August 28, 2008 45 years to the day of Martin Luther King's famous "I Have A Dream" speech Barack Obama will have the opportunity to make history again.

    To quote King...I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations...With faith we will be able to work together...to struggle together...I have a dream that children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. YES WE CAN!

  • OBAMA 2008! YES WE CAN!

  • all of Europe wants Obama to win. They feel that out of Obama Clinton, and McCain, Obama is the only one who can salvage the United State's reputation on an international scale

  • great speech and most of all a great man....

  • there is the new president remember that yes we can on obama we beleive and there is a hope

  • I am soooo happy I was there! I cried, was elated to have witnessed history, and my candidate live and in person!!!

    Obama '08 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • i will spread the word,that even obama you-tube sites practice sensorship...you people are pathetic...

  • just hearing him say, "I can stand here and say I will be the Democratic nominee for President of the United States of America" sends shivers down my spine!

    Obama for Prez!!!

  • Everyone, if we really are going to make change, we need to keep out needless language out of our speech obviously, but also our comments hear on youtube. Nothing is gained from them but division. This is not what we are about. Unity is important in the little things too. Start showing respect for others and they will then show respect for us and for Obama.

    Obama-08

  • Great speech by Obama !!! How can you not vote for the man after that speech ???

  • Congratulations Senator Obama, Our Next President!! WOOOOOHOOOOO!

  • you inspire me Mr Obama. (Canada)

  • OBAMA IS THE 1

  • this is a moment i never saw coming...but i have a bad feeling that he will win, and he will not be able to enforce what he wants to do because those in congress will undercut him...the classic old farts who have been runnin this country to hell and have to vote on bills he would propose...you know the types...

  • Obama is the gaent of America!GO mr.presdent,go,go,go,go,and go.we love you!

  • Barackin Roll!!!

  • I was there. The lines outside the Xcel were bananas! It was great, no one walking to the back of the line looked to be in a bad mood. Everyone seemed to be happy to come support Barack and witness a part of history.

    God willing, Obama will go down as one of the great leaders.

  • I think McCain is going to win this.

  • hbgrefyrdfggefuhdb

  • This speech brought tears to my eyes. I am so proud of you!!! God bless you Barak and I can't wait to see you as President of the United States!!!

  • Obama is like a tsunami wave, massive and overpowering. Nothing can stop him now, so John McCain, you better hope the planet aline and stop time or something astronomical cause there is no way Young American's are gonna let anyone we can't or it too expensive.Hillary did a god job in her concession speech.

  • Obama for Prez!

  • i agree with thunderstormv5000

  • G-d Bless America, Barack & the Obama family, AND Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton for working to unite our Democratic party and her devotion to getting our Democratic nominee into the White House in 2008!

  • You are the Change that America needs!

  • Wrong on counts 1 and 4.

  • I have a suggestion for his VP. How about Madeline Albright? She may be 71, but that woman's mind is as sharp as a tack.

  • My Mother and a lot of people keep on saying he is going to lose now....but, I have a feeling if we all join together, even the Clinton lovers and vote Obama, we can win. We need a Democrat.

    We need a change!

  • Thanks for giving people like me hope!

    Thanks from bringing me back - I will not only vote again - for you - but I'll volunteer for your campaign!

  • Here in Canada the most people look at Obama as the new hope, inspired by his words and his honesty he is the only one than can bring about true change for this little planet in the near future on our side of the rock.

    I hope he has the right people looking out for him and protecting him from those that would do ill will.

    OBAMA 08 YES YOU CAN AMERICA!!

  • viva obama

  • If you are voting Obama give me a thumbs up!

  • YES!!!!!

  • my friend was there!!! she said there were even more people outside

  • I have a question for you Obama supporters (from an undecided voter)how do you feel about all these Clinton supporters who according to all the polls and online blogs are so easily switching their vote to McCain?? I don't think you realize these people are PISSED OFF that Hillary lost and they would much rather see McCain in the White House rather than Obama, even if Hillary did everything in her power to sway her voters and help Obama.

    I think this election may be a lot closer than you think.

  • If this man becomes President we will have to change the name of this nation to the United Socialist states of America

  • Obama inspired everyone in the whole world.

    From Saudi Arabia

  • He is another Robert Kennedy!!!

  • What a history-making speech! Awesome.  Go Barry.

  • The Messiah cometh. Stop the rising oceans? Heal the planet? Get a clue people. Listen to what the man says, not how he says it. It's all feel good BS that he cannot accomplish. Don't fall for it.

  • Why doesn't youtube feature this?

  • Viva Obama!

  • He blew me away. What a speech. Wow.

  • We as Americans owe it to the rest of the world to elect this man.

  • REP MN

  • oh god.........

  • Mr. Obama likes to kill babies, he supports abortion, the surgical removal of a baby from it's mothers womb, now how is this different from killin' arabs in Iraq?

  • No war in iran! He want to pursue George W. Bush´s plans & strategys!

  • I think Obama is just what the US needs . . .

  • WOW..SPEACHLESS

  • Well done Mr Obama,

    Love from Australia!

  • The last 30 seconds of the speech was prolific.

  • I agree!!!!!

  • Ryesca,

    Prolific? I think you mean "prophetic."

  • I have used your phrase in a direct quote. Thank you so much for such a concise, well spoken judgment of this great speech.

  • viva Obama!

  • AMEN Bratha....

    OBAMA For President "08"

  • Wow....He will probably be one of the greatest Orators in the 21st century.

    He will go down in the History books as probably the Clement Atlee of America

  • He makes one thinks.

    Better or wonderfull?

    The American people have the power.

    Hello from Sweden.

  • YES

    WE

    CAN!

  • the world is watching too

    and is very hopefull of Barack Obama

    becoming the next President of the United States. If hope is all he gives....

    It's more than enough!

  • Barack Obama demonstrates the charisma, leadership, intellect, and substance to help motivate and empower all Americans, regardless of their chosen political party, to do what we are capable of doing.

    While I respect the other candidates, I am proud to have campaigned for Mr. Obama and elated that he is the Democratic nominee for President! Yes, we CAN!

  • Well said MayFlowerNYC, and I will go one step farther and say, Yes We Will!

  • Amen tot that !!!!

  • "I just want to do God's will. And he's allowed me to go to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land! I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that WE as a PEOPLE WILL get to the promised land."

    --Martin Luther King, Jr.

    Thank you MLK, Jr. for forseeing THIS change!

  • You are so right. He said this day would come in his "I Have a Dream" speech. Free at last, Free at last, thank God almighty, we are free at last. Yes We Can! Obama 2008/2012!!!

  • I'm so glad I can say I was there for that historic moment. (That's me shouting "Yeah!" at 3:27. LOL) Love the video, thanks very much for posting it!

  • Sorry, I got it wrong. "Yeah" is at 3:26! :)

  • Congratulations Barak Obama. I believe America will be transformed by this great leader!
