  • McCain DID THE RIGHT THING.

  • hahahahahaha "he...he's an araaab" :(

  • Fuck this fat cunt and all americans, you leave our countries alone and then talk, stupid ignorant mcdonalds americans.

  • MY FUCKING GOD

    What is up with these full grown adults acting like retards.

    I have a lot of respect for McCain after watching this. Good on him for keeping them in check.

  • quite weird ..

    if your god that you worship is an arab ( jesus ) why not your president !? ha

  • @sun0never0sets Jesus was a jew.

  • @David12scht yes but he was against what the jews had become, and set out to correct them

  • @David12scht then you need to reed .. look for where your god stemmed from, and then tell me whether that land belonged to the jews at the time.

  • @sun0never0sets My God? There's no such thing. I'll assume you're referring to Jesus. He was born a jew, plain and simple. Went to the temple, rested on the sabbath and did all the things jews do. You could argue that the land belonged to the Roman Empire at the time, but that has no impact on Jesus' ethnicity.

  • @David12scht well there is no need to assume, he's your god, doesn't make sense! not sth to do with me .. anyway , it seems that you mix two things up, being an arab and being jew , there's a huge difference ..

    another thing , roman empire did not belong to that land , they just conquered it ..

    arabs lived in palestine first

  • What's wrong with being Arab? I LOVE BEING ARAB! get outta here!

  • damn they're really afraid of the Arabs LOL xD

  • what state and city were these retards asking these questions from?

  • @Elmaln Arabs are Caucasian fool!

  • Jesus was Arab

  • @saad477 I thought Jesus was Jewish?

  • @RidiculouslyLuis Palestine/Israel are arab states.

  • Poor John McCain. One of the more reasonable Republicans, certainly better than the ones competing for the nomination now, but he has to deal with his own misinformed and absurd base. I wish more Republicans were like McCain, and fewer were like that woman.

  • :55 The instant John McCain realized that he would never, ever be president.

  • Kk the WHOLE video, I was going

    ' the fuck why are we surrounded by godamned idiots, do you not hear the stupidity and ignorance coming out of ALL your mouths ? like at least educate yourself America jeez. '

  • I'm an arab person and i think i'm better a decent family woman so stop hating on muslims please... ISLAM FOREVER

  • lol, does Obama LOOK like an Arab? x)

    What a stupid woman, and what a stupid response.

  • @givemearandomnamenow Well apparently an Arab can be defined by more than ethnicity, like where in the world they are born, so he wouldn't necessarily have to "look" Arab. He's still not, obviously :P

  • Mc Cain is a shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is disgusting, almost 150 years on Southern states still dwell in racial matter. So if your African or Muslim, your not decent? And Ted Bundy is awesome.......

  • People are so ignorant these days. So what if ur a Arab or a Muslim that makes u a bad person? What if I went around and saying oh ur a Christian and ur a Jew I'm cnt trust u. What makes a person is within not based on there race .

  • the woman said i cant trust obama becuase hes an arab...wtf

  • @fazawood81 you know what americans have been like since 9/11, they think that every arab and every muslim (yes americans there is a difference) are terrorists.

  • @Csureable i know therre is a differecne and i am muslim so i knw

  • Another Cracked moment.

  • Hes a he's a...hes aa. (mcain: please dont say nigger) Arab.

    WTF

  • @sserhan2 LMFAO thats exactly what happened

  • I felt really bad for McCain when this happened. It must have been humiliating.

  • The truth is, McCain has no fu..ing idea what Obama's background (Hawaiian) is that is why he stumbles and says hesitantly to the old bag of chips "heis..heis...a decent family man!" Aaahhhhrgh the stupidity in this room is enough to lopside the earth!

  • @northernstudio heis heis? are you making john mccain speak german?

  • @northernstudio Really? Do you instinctively know the birthplace of every single person that you work with? Certainly he could have inquired about it, but it's not like the information would have done him any good, unless he planned to make racial slurs about Hawaiians.

  • Misses is some racist hahaha

  • Ok guys. Arab ≄ Muslim You have to understand that.

  • Mccains like god damn my supporters are fucking idiots....i might actually win this thing.

  • I HAS A QUESTION: HES AN ARAB

    so what's the fucking question dumb bitch

  • Some people are really ignorant! No wonder Bush got elected two times

  • @borggi she is beyond ignorant, she is clearly just plain stupid.

  • Pity, he tried to stand up for another individual regardless of the reactions from others. Seems the audience there comprised mainly of ppl prejudiced agaisnt obama for his ethnicity and background

  • @mimprincesa um yeah it was "comprised mainly of ppl prejudiced agaisnt obama for his ethnicity and background" because it was a Repugnant audience.

  • I'm a socialist, but my respect for McCain went through the roof after seeing this. He had the balls to stand up to his entire electorate, and that is awesome.

  • I don't support McCain but it was cool of him to stick up for his opponent, that's classy. I hope Obama would have done the same.

  • Disgraceful.

  • WTF that bitch.... She was scared obviously, notice how she said Arabs. lmaaao.

  • @iraqi4ever1234 I know. Like as soon as she said it a bomb would go off haha

  • What the fuck does that have to do with anything? What a bunch of dumbfuck rednecks. Although, I respect the way McCain handled the situation, that was pretty cool.

  • lol, this was when McCain realized he wouldn't win the election.

  • Say what you want about McCain, but the man has always had integrity, unlike that Rick Santorum dude who pretended not to hear when the crowd at the debate was booing that gay soldier.

  • people who say arabs are from middle east i tell them u r wrong , there are arabs from africa too,and they r not blacks, some people thought all africans are blacks , some think pakistan and afgan are arabs, damn it americans for god sake stop watching hannah monatanah and learning jonas brothers songs , read some geography and history , dumb fat people , damn mcdonald

  • @uzummaki by the same coin not all Americans are that naive....it's just plain silly to make generalizations about anyone...but I totally agree the pop culture totally sucks in this country at the moment...

  • Comment removed

  • HAHAHAH...that lady sounds so sweet. i bet she makes cookies for little arab kids.

  • Mccain is not implying arabs are bad

  • well, I am an arab and a decent guy

    deal with it.jpg

  • man there are some weirdos on McCains side.-

  • "No ma'am. He is not (an Arab). He is a decent man."  So what if he was. Does that automatically make him a indecent man?

  • Indeed arrogance leads to hell and lower human value..I feel sorry them to be so blind..thank GOD I'm a muslim:

    The Noble Qur'an - 49:13 (approximative translation):

    "O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other. Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things)."

  • MCcain is the only decent Republican there, man George Washington must be rolling over in his grave and kicking himself in the ass for the idiots that are in our country today *faceplam*

  • ANd only a fraction of the people applaud him. Ignorant fuckin republicans.

  • fuck those people who started booing obama; bunch of ignorant rednecks

  • "He's an Arab"

    "No ma'am, he's a decent family man, citizen..."

    Is that implying that an Arab cannot be a decent family-oriented person? O_o

  • @TheBookShark The woman was generalizing him, and using it as a negative thing. McCain was like "fuck that shit". I GUESS YOU FAILED TO SEE THE POINT.

  • @TheBookShark Having 10 wives, beating wives, treating women like garbage now thats what I call family-oriented. Enough with the double talk, if Arabs were decent family-oriented people they would not be in this mess today, stop equating them to white Americans or Europeans. All you have to do is watch Pakistani TV to understand this

  • @qw2589 And FWI, Pakistanis are not Arabs. Arabs are people from the Middle East. Pakistan is in South Asia...

  • @TheBookShark I know I know but they share many of Arab values, especially in Islam.

  • @TheBookShark God, I wish that Guile's theme kicked in as he finished saying that line.

  • @TheBookShark Arabs tend to be religious and it's obvious that religious people make horrible parents. Maybe that's what he was implying?

  • @TheBookShark I think people took it out of context. I think he was reacting to her feelings that if he was arab he's not to be trusted and he genuinely defended him.

  • @TheBookShark I don't think that he was really implying anything like that. He answered her question and THEN moved on to reassure her that Obama is a decent man and that her she need not mistrust him. I think that his answer to the Arab question ended with the "No Ma'am". A stupid assertion demands only the simplest answer. The rest was just him reassuring her and the rest of the ignorant folk in the crowd that Obama is a respectable citizen. Period.

  • @TheBookShark I'd argue that Arabs on average are considerably more family oriented than Caucasians, considerably more.

  • @TheBookShark Of course it is, we're talking about John McCain.

  • @TheBookShark no, you just twist words

  • @TheBookShark although it sounds like that, i think he is more saying the fact that she is saying she doesn't trust him and thinks he is a bad person because she thinks he is an arab, to which Mccain is saying that he is a good person.

  • @TheBookShark No, it's implying that one, he isn't an Arab, and two, he's a decent family man, citizen

  • Thats Funny........ I see some of the comments below... and they say that they now have more respect for McCain .... "Ya, why not ... He said ... Obama is not ARAB, he is a DECENT FAMILY MAN ...

    ARAB .... DECENT MAN ... are they opposite???

  • "hes an arab"

    I wish i was there at that moment, i would have run at her and screamed some arabic shit while holding my phone up high, that'd give her a heart attack

  • Awww, John McCain has a place in my heart

  • Ahahahah xD

  • Old lady is on crack!!

  • @0429Ghandi Old lady is typical stupid American hick.

  • Im officially ashamed to be white :(

  • I have a lot of respect for John McCain, even if I don't necessarily agree with his political views.

  • FUCK THESE WHITE PEOPLE THIS VIDEO PISSED ME OFF! WHO GIVES A SHIT IF HES ARABIC YOU OLD PIECE OF SHIT PLUS I FEEL LIKE KICKING THAT GUYS ASS THE GUY IN THE BEGINNING!!!

  • I suspect John McCain was anticipating the woman using the "N" word... He was obviously fairly appalled by the attitude his own supporters had towards Obama and I respect that. Too many politicians would happily have ridden a wave of prejudice.

  • Arab= not decent guy , wow

  • That woman was actually a Hillary Clinton supporter. There are numerous videos and stories about her.

  • You people are fools, all these president work for the same master, ur votes mean nothing, at the end of the day the presidents are just puppets

  • lol whut

  • In fairness, I think McCain was merely at a loss of words which always happens, especially when you are asked a question that would be awkward in front of these people. Still, considering how silent and sustained he was I am shocked at his racist answer.

  • i imagine this scene in the near future in movies

    its a perfect scene

  • Just goes to show how retarded the average person in America is. KUDOS to McCain for being a honest person however.

  • he is not even Arabian dumbass

  • I like how he handled the situation right, but then he fucked up saying that a family man is better than being an Arab.

  • His reaction is priceless though, just shakes his head, grabs to mic, and pretty much says fuck you.

  • 80% of MCcain's followers are who fucked him in the election.

  • jäib

  • That's Racism...

  • McCain realizes he will never be president, right here and now.

  • @batcountryrabid You just copied that from a Cracked article man. Not cool.

  • he's a reptlian

  • damn it !!! am an arab...

    man i was looking forward to havin a family

  • Obama is a bad president but mccain is also a loser he needed to retire years ago ..

  • I didnt vote for McCain, but I have to give the man credit, both for his military service, and especially for this moment. At this moment, he saw what his followers believe, at this moment, he saw the type of idiotic fools he was trying to help, at this moment, McCain couldve agreed or just simply said "No Comment" and people around the country would have just assumed it was true. What did he do in this moment? He said who Obama really is and showed he is a decent and good human being. God bless

  • Conservatives are more emotionally reactive and thus more inclined to respond positively to the hyperbole and scaremongering common in conservative media. Due to having a larger amygdala. Oh, btw America, what are you doing about syria??

  • And thus McCain sees who his voters are

  • that woman seems to be very smart, don't you think? ^^

  • The moment John realized he wouldn't win this election.

  • @Batintrenche

    You read Cracked.com eh? That's why I'm watching this video :P

  • @Surrylic86 LOL. That's what brought me here too.

  • Yeah.. Like this made me respect mccain, but the people who follow him are idiots.. At least hes well intentioned. Kudos to Mccain

  • Is Obama American?

    No his a decent educated man not an american

  • CLICK "LIKE" IF CRACKED.COM BROUGHT YOU HERE

  • "No he's not arab he's a decent man..." I know that's not exactly what he said but it sounds like he's saying all arabs are bad or indecent. I mean props to mccain for handling the situation but i feel like he could've answered it without making it sound like arabs would make terrible presidents...although with what's going on in the middle east right now that is the case lol. anyway i know plenty of decent arab/muslims who abhor terrorism and bin laden just as much as your average american.

  • it kinda sucks for mccain when all of his followers watch the propaganda of fox news, wtf is there to be afraid of from obama.

  • these people are extremely ignorant,, its sad

  • @MsSabrinza americans in general?

  • @Frankerbabz umm well i mean the people in that rally. but not all no but alot are unfortunately

  • Sadly most republicans are really this stupid. Poor McCain had to deal with a nation of these people.

  • @holdencaufield200 Ha no, actually they're not. Republicans and Democrats both have idiotic, misinformed, and uneducated followers. To claim that all republicans are as 'stupid' as this old lady is simply ignorant and stereotypical.

  • @unreal513 The average person has an I.Q of 100, If you are smart, once you realize that most people ARE this stupid, you will be better off for it. For you to quote me as saying "ALL" when I said "most" is presumptive, and renders you comment baseless.

  • He dodged that well

  • wtf so even if obama is an arab.....so that makes him a terrorist....that old lady is stupid

  • AWWW that was nice, he didnt say Obama was American, but Im glad he told that old fool he was not Arab.

  • @cuzzintruck He said he was a citizen.

  • It is nice to see that there are elected officials with morals.

  • So now it is un-American to be a muslim or a Arab and these are people who wave the flag and say they believe in freedom and the constitution of the "DIVIDED STATES" !

  • obama is half white half black NOT arab

  • *confused* "No?"

  • Every candidate says he respects the other candidate, because it makes himself more respectable.

  • McCaine is a fool think God he did not win, now we have to wait until 2012 to vote that chimp out of office.

  • @MaxamillianArturo

    Hurts to have a black man as president, doesn't it? Brace yourself, because you will endure 4 more years of a BLACK PRESIDENT. LOL.

  • @BrKT85 Correction, its hurts to have yet another unqualified schmenderick as president this one just happens to be a nigger.

  • @MaxamillianArturo

    LMAO.... coming from the guy who will never achieve a fraction of the "unqualified nigger's" achievements.

    Somebody's upset....

  • @KillahB89 I am Regents Professor of Ontology and Cosmology at the University of California. I earned all of my accomplishments and achievments through my own merit not based upon affirmative action, everyone knows anyone with enough money can buy the White House no one is elected anymore. Which brings me to my next point, what do you do for a living besides collect a welfare check?

  • @MaxamillianArturo

    mmmmhmmmm

  • @MaxamillianArturo

    You see... I appreciate the long winded response, but you still never invalidated my point. It seems to me you're one of those many racists who will never give someone their due, even when they have risen above you.

    So in saying that it doesnt matter what I tell you I do.

    In your eyes I will still be a "no good nigger, who collects welfare and ought to be strung up from a tree." Simply because I'm colored and I disagree.

    You're too petulant to argue with. Have a good one

  • @MaxamillianArturo Well, stringing someone up is going a bit far in my opinion.

  • so if im Arab i cant be "a decent human being"... well thank you vary much and the other 300 million arabs who are Muslim, Christian and Jewish thank you to.

  • @munshir Arabs are a beautiful people with cherished traditions. People that are ignorant simply don't know your true identity. They see an illusion, and they remain in chains. One day they will break, I pray for it.

  • @PhiloAmericana thank you

  • Yeah no racism in the McCain campaign.

  • Politics..least on our side is such garbage, I don't understand what anyone can take from it other than knowing what is going on in their country. People discuss their opinions to try and make a valid point so hard, but in the end it's all pointless neither person comes to amends with the other and all you get in the end is two different perspectives from two guys who believe tenfold in what their saying.

    McCain's integrity here is admirable, but I don't see USA being much different had he won.

  • "Of course he is not an Arab, he is a good guy"

    Sheezz....

  • While I don't agree with him on many points, but McCain is such a greater man than these voters of his (hopefully, they're not the majority).

  • The moment John McCain Realized he would not be president.

  • @WindKun Stop stealing from cracked you faggot.

  • Did he start out saying "First of all I'd wanna be presa unite states"? He sure does mumble and whistle a lot when speaking, this fella.

  • 1.09 "He's not ( talk to the hand)" [ retreats looking for a less insane part of the audience]

  • tried to vote for the McCain in 2000 primary, but by 2008,he'd diluted too many of his core planks that had gained my admiration. Still, I wish more politicians could rise to this level of integrity and honesty.

  • I'd love to be able to say we don't have people like that here in the U.K.

  • shit that was well handled

  • "we are scare" just say u cant stand a nigga president

  • Gotta love white people! I love u white people :) haha

  • haha what the hell?? rednecks are hecka dumb lol

  • disgusting people

  • Cracked.com sent me here, and this really was the moment John McCain realized he'd never be president.

  • What an unintelligent thing to say about Obama.

    Ya know if McCain was elected, i wouldnt have been saying "OMYGOD AMERICA IS GOING TO HELL IN A HANDBASKET."

  • I used to think this guy McCain was a crazy old guy, but I just gained so much respect for him. Even if I don't agree with him.

  • He's an arab? LOL, people are so fucking dumb. I feel sorry for McCain having these uneducated idiots at his rally. I guess anybody who goes to campaign rallies to support mainstream politicians are retarded by default.

  • As if being a decent family man is the opposite of being an arab...fuck

  • @DangerDan2

    Yeah damn why has no one else picked up on this?

  • @DangerDan2 I think you're looking too much into this. He also said in that same breath that he's a citizen of the US and you can be both a citizen and an arab. He's just saying he's not an arab, he's a citizen and a family man. When you look at all the myths that surrounded Obama, what he was saying was more of a generalized rebuttal.

  • @DangerDan2 I just don't see where McCain is saying or even implicitly assuming those are opposites. I think when he says "he's not", McCain simply means Obama isn't what this woman THINKS he is. Yes, it would've been nice if he'd said, "So what if he is an Arab?", but he had no advanced notice this woman was going to go full on ignorant racist on him, so he had to come up with something.

  • @geefleandgonk true that

    

  • @DangerDan2 That's not what he meant and you know it. He wasn't responding to the woman's suggestion that Obama was 'an Arab'; he was responding to what he anticipated was going to be the woman's main point. We could all see where she was going with it, and he nipped it in the bud. He was just unlucky that she got in the word 'Arab' as he wrestled control of the mic from her.

  • @DangerDan2 hahah, u think u Americans come from decent families... u r dreaming...most of u bastards.. tell me how many times ur mum betrayed ur father, and tell me how many boyfriends ur sister have... tell me homo many gays and homo in US.. If ur president betrayed his wife like what Clinton did, so what do expect u the people would be.... ur shitty nasty, pussy American... when u wanna talk about arabs, remember that arabs are ur masters, and u r just slave underneath ur feet
