Please come back to the US and work for the Obama campaign. We need people like yourself to articulate and spread the word that Obama must become our new president ! :)
Haha. I just got reamed on another video commentary wall for correcting someones English.
Anyway, if you'll forgive me, I think that yours is fair editorial suggestion, but that "clearer" is also correct, perhaps more correct (haha, "correcter"). It sounds awkward because of the syllabically adjacent "r's," but nonetheless both are commonly accepted parlance.
Hillary Clinton not only won more Votes than her rival Barack Obama, but after all the 2008 Presidential Primary Votes were Counted and Certified, she won more Votes than any other Presidential Primary candidate in American history with 17,822,145 Votes (17,535,458 Barack Obama- +286,687 Hillary Clinton) Michigan Uncommitted: 238,168 Votes,which included Obama,Richardson,Biden and Edwards,who chose to take their names off the ballot,and who chose not to do a re-vote
I'm sorry, but your count does not include votes in many caucuses. Many states have laws prohibiting making public the number of participants in their caucuses, making it impossible to know the true "popular vote." Also, I assume you're saying that Michigan's uncommitted votes should not count towards Obama's popular vote total, and that even if they were, they wouldn't put him over the top. Obviously you can come to almost any conclusion depending on how you pick and choose your numbers.
But anyway, it was a long hard-fought primary. Hillary Clinton did great, but even she acknowledges she didn't win, and now she's calling for the party to unify behind Obama, who will be the nominee. I hope that you will still see the merits of voting Democrat in the fall, even though Hillary won't be at the top of the ticket.
Haha, thanks a lot. These things come in bits and spurts when I have free time and inspiration. Right now, I'm not lacking in inspiration, just free time! We'll see if I find some soon. Best regards!
I think this video does an excellent job of conveying some of what it is about Barack that's so exciting to so many of us. It's especially impressive to see this level of political savvy in a very young guy.
AWESOME commentary on Barack. You are on the money. I'm trying to think of a way to objectively slip this into my classes so my young adult students can see it. I gotta do it objectively to be fair, tho.
We, the people, will have to also mold Barack Obama into a better leader. Especially when he enters the presidency. Jsut because he becomes does not mean that we stop being a movement. The changes we want will take many years even after his presidency.
We have more states to go. It is very important that he Obama keeps the message of reform and the removal of nuclear weapons and nuclear energy. And financial student assistance.
N.H. is still close just wait until 97% of the votes are in. They are calling the election in and they have not counted the college towns. CNN and FOX news and others could not be trusted.
Very, very well said and written. You're right dude, Obama is the best hope we have for this country and this Earth. He will be the first "community organizer" President, familiar with every aspect of this country from the ground up. He'll go down in history as one of the greatest leaders of all time.
Outstanding job. Obama is Our future and our greatest hope for peace and unity in the world. Those who think he is perfect, just give him a chance to start, not just to make it to the finish line. everything cannot be accomplished at once, we need to build a foundation first, then work on the smaller issues, so those who are going to vote for Ron Paul, Stop being picky, and wake up to the real world.
yet another video well done i was a club member of the boys and girls club but now i'm a satff of the boys and girls club i believe that no one should be judged by the color of their skin to gain a carrer
Thank you for the well researched information and I could see the sincerity in you as you articulated what Obama stands for. I should also thank you for making everything clear both audio and the written words. I think you also have the qualities of a leader. I also support Obama
Ron Paul subscribes to an idea of isolationism which has been implemented and failed in american history. If he honestly thinks that he can get rid of the IRS, that global warming is caused by volcanoes and that the department of education should be the first thing to go upon his entry to office, then I can't see how people think of him as so infallible. The man is an extremist senile old fool, with no grip on reality, much less the capacity to control a nation of this size and magnitude.
I first heard about Obama during his '04 Senate race, before his speech at the DNC. Believe it or not, the pundits actually aroused my curiosity about him. They were talking about him like sports announcers might talk about a star rookie. "You're going to want to watch this guy's career, because he's going places," "He's a phenomenon in Illinois, just wait till he makes his foray onto the national scene," and "His life story is something out of fiction."
So I sought out information on him. I watched all his policy speeches online, I read what people were saying about him, I followed the news, I read his books, and I saw him in the summer of '06 at the Campus Progress National Student Conference. I realized he was exactly the guy that we need to become president.
He's a listener, he believes that legitimate political power comes from the bottom up (from the People) not from the top down, he wants to hold gov't officials accountable to high standards of ethics, he wants to make gov't work for citizens not special interests, he works across the aisle, he thinks we should engage the world instead of being the bully on the block. Barack Obama has all the attributes our current President should have and doesn't.
Great video. I love every word although you are too monotone in your presentation. Obama has more feeling and compassion. This next election will be interesting. I just hope and pray we can get back what we stood for years and years ago.
We love your video. Thats why we featured it today on POPTUB. Stop by our channel and check it out!

Many comparative forms of adjectives only admit either the "___-er" or "more __" form, but this appears to be a case where both are ok.
Google "more clear"& "clearly" at the same time and read the lively discussions.
