Ted Sorensen on Barack Obama

[saulpaulus]

Ted was right then and he is still right...even in death. We will miss you, Ted.

[yoadrianhead]

this election will require an effective sales person. can't keep going with a bully image. other than that, the winner, whoever it turns out to be, needs to keep this country stable.

[godislove92]

With such an intellectual person like mr.sorensen, how can the american people vote for anyone but Barack obama.

Vote Obama and save the world

[musicfan99999]

indeed a great endorsement. if only this country could get over its racism... i don't believe it can, but i'll be "hoping and praying."

[alyceclover]

musicfan99999: the country is not racists, just a bunch of people that live here. Seeing the diverse support for Senator Obama~especially from long time politicians shows a page is being turned and maybe, just maybe the next generation of kids will be smarter than parents of yesteryear...

Obama/Edwards 08 the new JFK

[4Obama]

Yes We Can!!!

[way2ruf]

I love Obama and feel he'll be a GREAT President!

[bokiku]

Obama is bought by the lobby, he flip-flopped on Palestinian question.

[98b9acwgphvrghg8w9p]

WOW!!!!!!!!! Bobby Kennedy's widow also supports Obama!!!! Awesome political power behind the Obama campaign.

[CanalesMB]

Does this guy not remember the bay of pigs fiasco?

[SteveLinGuitar]

Yes, he does. I just watched his interview with Charlie Rose on PBS and he gave a very sober explanation -- basically that JFK learned a hard lesson from that. With all of us being human, sometimes we can only ask that our leaders be sensible and that they use tomorrow as an opportunity to apply yesterday's lessons.

[jkaneki11]

The next JFK!!!!

[AudacityOfHope]

Mr. Sorenson was a speech writter and counsel to President Kennedy as well as a major contributor to JFK's pulitzer prize winning book "Profiles in Courage." This is a serious endorsement from an American heavyweight.

[zed4785]

well said!

[gsopo]

Ted Sorensen is a living legend. The man's endorsement is worth a billion bucks!

Excellent!

[alexnjhc]

awesome video. and the cuban missile crisis comparrison is right on too!

[Swebgotenks]

great endorsement

[mswamike]

Go Obama Go!!

[bcaswell1]

Obama will help us heal from the unmitigated disaster of the Bush administration. He will usher in a new era of global leadership; one founded on truth and respect, compassion and peace. GO OBAMA! GO!

[jamesosix]

Errr yeah maybe the cameramans image shouldn't really be on the window in the background lmao!

[mandoelpaso]

not bad,just think that nobody is worth a comparison or even close to any kennedy because their are unique in their own way,maybe their having problems getting teddy?

[AeroJunkie20]

Go Obama and its true he is the new Kennedy.

[howard7070]

Wonderful, correct parallel !

[leightonvyrene]

Good endorsement, Ted S. In the next crisis that threatens to obliterate the human race, I want someone in the White House with the integrity & intelligence of Barack Obama, not an ideologue ready to be "raptured up" with the Apocolypse.

[MysteryTrain223]

As far as I'm concerned this is about as hefty an endorsement as they come. Sorenson is awesome, and so is Obama.

[mardybum30]

you Americans......please vote Obama......the world will be such a better place...

[BlueApple00]

YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!

[LuciusBrutus]

The gentleman is reading the words. It also looks like Obama was groomed for the job. So far Obama never says nor has he done anything of real value that will actually help this country. He is a safe bet for the status quo in Washington and it will be business as usual with a few superficial changes. It appears most change will probably be more debt welfare programs instead of actually dealing with economic fundamentals that poison our country.

[Xone7]

Great endorsement from someone who was closest to one of America's greatest presidents.

08BAMA!!

[monicall2]

Truly great. We should be sure to share this with as many people as possible.

[monitajb]

This man should know. He is the one who most likely ghostwrote (at the least researched) Profiles in Courage.

[gautam3]

NICE. OBAMA 2008 PEOPLE.

[ikebona]

All these GOOD people can't be wrong. Obama is the leader with a heart. And that's what America needs now. Not a rattlesnake.

He's the democratic candidate who can actually WIN because he's loved by independents and republicans like me. ALL HE NEEDS IS, WIN THE NOMINATION!!

President Obama will confirm to the world that America truly is the greatest country in the world.

If you doubt it, look up every media in Europe and see the great support and positive sentiment towards his candidacy

[wint3rzx]

second

[robertsdoug]

Great video!

Vote OBAMA! and dougstech'com

[Boomdog14]

Fantastic endorsement. And I think he's right on with his description of Obama's poise and judgment. Could you imagine Bush handling the Cuban Missile Crisis?

[DonSvenneProduction]

nuke the bastards`?

[demaia]

can see him handle it but not in a way that is profitable for about 8/10 of the worlds population

[kwamena123]

Go Obama!

[themightylex]

Awesome! What a great endorsement!
