When this happened, I was in my beloved rural redneck part of the country...a middle-aged white woman living in an old single-wide, watching tv with my adult son. We saw this Chicago crowd go wild. And we both wept--sobbed-- & hugged each other, grinning through our tears, overwhelmed w/ the sheer joy and pride we felt as Americans in that wonderful moment...we were part of this joyful crowd too. The media honeymoon may be over for our president, but our pride/ hope for the U.S.remains strong!
I respect everyone's right to freedom of speech. That said, I'd appreciate it if people who hate this video would at least treat the rest of us with respect. Please keep your overly-aggressive and hateful comments to yourself or at least approach the discussion in a more constructive manner. If you think we're so wrong, let's at least have a healthy debate instead of name-calling.

This is the day America started down the long road to ruin, and no; I don't say this because of his race, I say it because he is a power hungry dictator that wants to destroy everything America is. Good job you braindead liberals; we have you to blame for this.
No dumbass, you have George Bush to blame so don't get it twisted. You right wing nutjobs act as if you're oblivious to the 8 yrs of fuckups by the Bush/Cheney clan, left this country in the mess it's in & now Obama is trying to get us back on tract, but you listen to the ramblings of a billionare like Limbaugh that you don't have sense enough to know his agenda is not the same as yours, yet you believe his bs. Wake the fuck up, Bush did more damage than any president in history!
Thanks for posting - I was just in front of this vantage point and you captured it how I remember. Now I can relive it whenever I want! It made me tear up watching it again. Awesome!
Its looks like a New Years celebration! I was soo happy when they announced him. Just watching this video makes me tear up. I wasnt born in this country, but its things in history like this that make me proud of being an American, (even a naturalized one) Yes We Can!
Did you see the crowd...that is the America I love, that is the America I represent...All types of people, all colors, TOGETHER. Republicans love to divide, democrats believe in inclusion. White, black, indian, chinese, native american, hispanic, etc if you were born in America or are an American citizen - then you ARE AMERICAN !
what a bunch of sheep...

Look at all the sheeple and racism victims of hate, many still in shackles as they praise their slave masters of socialism.
