  • 19:14 is where Obama talks more about discrimination

    (this is for those who are looking for that certain topic)

  • The thing none of the Obama zealots realize is that Obama's promises are nothing but empty rhetoric. he tell's you what you want to hear. The man will stop at nothing to get elected. You praise him now, but chances are too high you'll regret voting for him. Do you really think he will keep his word? Of course he mentions slavery yet ignores the fact that whites were enslaved in higher numbers.

  • Obama will bring about the downfall of the US Armed Forces

    if you care about your country safety

    don't vote Obama

    Spc. Leonardo Youssef

    McCain 08

  • OBAMA 08' Hes Incredible..and he deeply cares about how we feel, and how we are =D

  • Lol vansoffthewall101

    "He talks good" don't you mean "He speaks well." By the way he does answer the question he just gives a lot of background so that you understand him, you're just not intelligent enough to understand the answer.

  • Such an amazing speech. He's got what it takes to be the next Roosevelt, Lincoln, etc. Obama 2008! Help save America!

  • I am doing a project on why people are voting for each candidate. Who do u support and Y? Please use facts, give me links because I want opinions bact up with hardcore evidence

  • Do you realize the implications of Obamas policies?Its socialism!Do your research.You think youll get a break but the huge tax on business will be devastating!Their payroll tax up to 52% - income tax almost 40%?How will companies afford to keep you?Will your reduction pay for the loss of your job?An attempt to ask more from the wealthy will kill those like us who WORKED HARD and followed the rules and the wealthy will still be wealthy! We hate this bail out right? Cause its socialism!

  • Nice Video!

    I did one too about this whole debacle. I will send it to you. Tell me what you think.

    -TonyaTko

  • And I quote:

    Before 2007:

    Consumer confidence--2½ yr high. Gas--$2.19. Unemployment--4.5%. Dow Jones, record,--14,000+. We bought cars, took vacations, and lived well.

    After Jan 2007: CHANGE! Democrat Congress Majority.

  • We dont want to put more money; they have used it for corruption.

    We dont want to say more words; they have used them for confusion.

    We dont want to wait more time; they have used it for delay.

    We dont want to call the violence; they have used it to gain power.

    We just want to rule the world; but they rather first destroy it.

  • obama!!!!!!!!!!! :)

  • cool

  • That was the best speech i've ever heard from a politician If I was american You would definitly have my vote but I still respect you.

  • Obama is an amazing man

  • Obama is invincible. He is the great one! He shall OBLITERATE McCain! He shall lead this great nation to the promised land that Martin Luther King for told. He shall not just fix the economy but excelerate it. He shall teach our kids where france is on a map. He shall eliminate all downtown traffic.

  • I am a firm independent, but after reviewing the Obama-Biden plans for the economy vs those of Mccain-Palin the Obama-Biden ticket is clearly superior. I mean 95% of citizens with will get a tax cut under Obama. People who support McCain are just missing the facts. He's no maverick he voted with Bush more than 90% of the time. And since when did longetivity become experience? McCain votes with his party not his own free will. Maverick year right. Thats republican rhetoric trying to counter Dems

  • Right on. Obama '08!

  • excatly, ask yourself this: do you want the wealth to be shared by the 95% of the people or only 5%? if you answer is 95% then you should vote Obama. Mccain has this crackpot theory that the wealth will drip done from the top 5%, yea right, like them greedy bastards wanna share their porsche, yacht and trophy wife with us, the common folks

  • You can ask Obama what color his shirt is and he will gibe you a speech that lasts an hour and talks nothing of his shirt color but sounds good.

  • Exactly. It's sad that there are people who don't realize that he just talks good but has no answers.

  • I havn't heard anything good from McCain, either... I guess Palin was a good answer, because, you know, she's "real" qualified. *sarcasm!* ahem, excuse me.

  • You just need to go to school and learn English if you can't understand Barack Obama.

  • No, what is sad is the fact that you don't realize that this wasn't a speech about politics. This speech supersedes politics but I doubt you even gave it a chance to find that out. If you did watch it and still come to the conclusion that Obama is simply talking good without answers, I question your ability to comprehend what he was saying. Then again, I highly doubt you would even want to.

  • Damn you ScubaSteve...

  • IT'S THE ECONOMY STUPID!

  • Why do you liberals and neocons have to fight 24/7? Every media outlet is bias because people are bias. Everyone has their point of view and it's not always going to be what you want it to be. If you can't accept that tuff. Mature adults should be able to understand that not everyone thinks alike. All of you are the reason our country is in crapper. You fight over stupid things that for the most part have nothing to do with making our lives better. I wish you would all grow up.

  • I wish we could all come to an agreement. But you have to be kidding yourself if you don't think you have an opinion that you would fight for.

    The parties quibble over little things, yes, but what about the war? The economy? Global warming? There are different approaches to solving problems and creating a better world. Are you saying you would just back down and comply with a view you completely disagree with just to mute conflicts?

  • Well that's the beauty of democracy isn't it.

  • Vote for Obama! He's amazing. McCain is a joke, and tells the American public what they want to hear, it's such a crock of shit, do the right thing, and vote for Obama. He's genuinely awesome, and sincere, and will make America less hated then it already is.

  • Obama speeks of unity yet he attacks republican leadership as is they are the enemy. If it were not for conservative policies he would not have the freedom to speek his mind. I would be willing to support Obaam if he spoke out against our real enemies like muslim extremists and not those who are fighting for his freedoms.

  • Republicans are not fighting for freedom. They are fighting for oil in Iraq where Osama Bin Laden is not located.

  • Obama doesn't sell out to the far right chirstian right but John Mccain does. Obama wants to change our country ways back what it use to stand for not before we let the neoconservative who just want more money and to keep us from anyway of change.Obama 08 the next president of the U.S

  • NObama '08

    the constitution was created as a guide for our country. some things may have to be added on in order to make this country better, but you cannot change what our country was founded on. if skin color does not matter, then why does he keep using it in his campaign. talk about the future of the country, not about race and skin color.

  • Iam a Indian i like obama a lot

  • obama tells us that the past and future are the same and differnt. He talked about how the founding fathers had these simular ideas, but new that some change was going to happen. change happens every single momement of our lives. obama says we need a change, but we do have a change aready. he should say about bigger changes and differnt changes from the last goverment legislation. he has spoken about alot of them, but still has a lot to cover. obama should win but he still has alot of work to do

  • obama rocks, we will have a strong future with him. McCain is a moron, saying he will close down amtrak.....

  • impeach Bush 4 his crimes

  • I would recommend to look out for a new Documentary out I.O.U.S.A

    This will really change your prospective towards this Administrations policy and its devastating effects that will engulf our children with a depth of Tons of Trillions of dollars.

    I can't wait to cast my vote this November. As close as this race might seem, Republicans and the whole World is in for a Big Surprise. . . . . Land Slide victory..;)

  • This is why this Navy Vet is voting for Mr. Obama.

    Boot camp put 90+ of us of all colors creeds together and we came out as "1" team, brothers in arms.

    Mr. Obama is trying to get folks of all creeds colors, sex, etc to make "1' Team..

    The American Team..

    Go Obama!!

  • I hope Obama wins!

  • anoter biased site your sad and weak

  • all obama says in speeches is "im gonna bring some change to this country goodbye" thats a summary

  • i agree

  • Lets go obama lets go

  • We must stay at war or we'll get bombed.

  • Obama rocks! He is what others arent, perfect. He´s in shape to lead America, to glorious days. I loved Kennedy and Barack as inte same mould. This world needs, Obama, so bad. He´s just perfect in terms of quality. We will perform miracles with this man. A man of honor.

    A man of America.

  • I don't care who you are I am a 15 year old white male and I think that racism is a big issue in america And racism is keeping many Americans down and therefore must be fixed to create a Truly Equal Nation!

  • "a more perfect Union" mabey obama can follow it sometime

  • i'd be honored to have him as my president.

  • i wonder if any of you obama supporting robots who are so captivated by his speeches and think that he can do no wrong can tell me ONE honorable thing that he has done and it cant be one of his speeches. come on, lets hear it. It cant be a speech. whats one honorable and good thing he has done.

  • isn't America Great? Our entire hisory from conception to now...has had such great differences and opinions on how things should go..yet here we are; for the most part, as we began. It is comical how so many could have such extreme views after seeing the exact same thing; or hearing the exact same speech.

    But then again that is America. The UNITED States of America.

    When the smoke clears, and the winners are announced, we stand UNITED because Divided we will surely fall.

  • zzzzzzzzzz

  • This is one of the most well-spoken, unexperienced, slippery, incredibly arrogant people I've ever witnessed. I'm not that big on McCain, but while he was defending the country, this guy was hanging out with people who were openly against this country, and soaking up everything they said. Listen to what he REALLY says, and you will hear cold, hard Marxism in what he says. He just knows that most people like to look instead of read, much less really listen. DANGEROUS.

  • Listen again, even Obama says that the constitution had it right, everyone is equal in thier individual rights. It was the collectivists in the country that kept slavery around. Yet here he is saying that the collective can coerse money, time, rights from the individual. This is why we need to return to the constitution, so that we can feel what it means to be free as the founders actually intended.

  • He's talking about people working together to improve their lives.

  • He's right ON the constitution.

  • agreed brew ...people are brainwashed ...our government is running things not intended to be ran this way

  • During the Vietnam War, black soldiers were sent abroad to serve and protect America. Yet at the same time, the same institutions that sent them, were imperfect because of the discrimination and segregation that existed.

    Obama is willing to confront issues of race and ethnicity that have prevent us from truly becoming a more perfect union.

    This is just one reason I'm voting for Barack Obama.

  • john lear said the vietnam war was "created" due to UFO cover-up. same as 9/11, Iraq war, etc, etc... etc! let us just all kill each other to cover up this phenomenon!

  • Sounds like you as does obama are playing the race card

  • (cont.)...let's talk about true personal freedom ..something the black,white,red,green, purple, martian, asian or whatever can unite together for...or you can sit here and listen to words ...i personally like obamas speech but he needs to focus on the individual and not as a group but as equal individuals.. racism will decline and we can only hope(sound familiar) it will be eliminated.

    i like obama but he offers no detailed solutions i've seen. want to make all americans more wealthy: ron paul

  • talking about race i think whites, chinese, and indians (dot) are categorized as one kind and blacks, latinos, asians, are another as the cause of tension always involves one from each group so i think we are not the same and there will never be complete unity and understanding no matter how we try

  • talking about race i think whites, chinese, and indians (dot) are categorized as one kind and blacks, latinos, asians, are another as the cause of tension always involves one from each group so i think we are not the same and there will never be complete unity and understanding no matter how we try

  • If anyone can find a conservative or anyone else that can straight-faced deny or object to what Obama said in this or the Berlin speech, he or she has to be deemed delusional.

  • If Obama used the tools for 7th age of computing,

    then do you think that chances of his election may raise to an extent?

  • Freepablo...because the working-class have health insurance and don't want to have to provide it for those who DON'T WORK among MANY other things

    Unless you are a lazy american or illegal who wants to get their way paved for them...why would you vote Democrat?

  • It's sad only 4 million watched this video. This should broadcast all over the world. Everyone on Youtube should watch this.

  • Did he hear him say anything that might be considered contoversial? Yes. He then goes on to say in his speech that he never heard him say anything as 'incendiary' as the remarks from which this situation arrose. So if this was edited correctly, you'd have a video of Barrack Obama agreeing with himself. Maybe someone should do that. I'm not gonna do it, I've got better things to do than try and influence people's votes with Michael Moore style bullshit.

  • wow twist and spin it any way you like this speech was awesome

  • Stop talking about being black we see you. If every white president talked about their "whiteness" it would turn our stomachs. Perfect union of like white and black......UGHHHHHHH

  • Simplify, amplify, distort, we have better things to do. :)

  • If McCain gets president im moving to canada! Why are so many people going for mcCain. And if mcCain does get president i dont wanna be hearing people complain about how he runs things if they voted for him which im sure that will happen if he gets it. But go Obama! ;D

  • You are so correct. My husband and I are moving to France or England if McCain is president.He will be worse than Bush, I dont know if these people are blind.

  • GO Obama

    he is the best for this country

    Mccain will make world war 3

    vote obama 08

  • I think Obama is one of the best American candidates and will be one of the greatest American presidents

  • how do people support a guy filtering our comments as his youtube police are doing? -- where are the patriots backing the first amendment who do not believe in filtering comments and framing what people can and will read aboiut this man?

    ~ Dissent Is the Highest Form of Patriotism that we can tell these people blocking comments -- soon the media will be asking obama why he is doing this :)

  • Condoleezza Rice for president!

  • WE have the power to MAKE our government ACT!

    Would you personally sign a petition (kucinichdotus), make a few phone calls (makeyourcalldotorg), and ask everyone you know to do the same to see Bush co held accountable?

    The ONLY reason the Judiciary Committee in the House held anything close to impeachment hearings last Friday (cspanjunkiedotorg) was because the PEOPLE MADE THEM.

    Now we only need to push a little bit more to impeach this bastard and set a new precedent that none of this is ok

  • Yes, Obama

  • Vote Gore!

  • It(He,She) goes to it(he,she) changes the world to better viva obama

  • Obama 08!

  • Obama sucks!

  • Nowaday with bush , we see america lost her immage of greatest democracy , of moral value leader in the world . let's europe back to esteem USA for a better economic and military collaboration .

    In this moment world need a man as Obama .

    let world turn to love america ,

    Vote Obama

  • Yes, one of the greatest speeches in American history. This and the Gettesburg address. Obama will be remembered for years to come as a President that helped unite a divided nation, and restored the image of the US throughout the world. I have no doubt.

  • im not old enough to vote, but if i was i would vote for Obama 100 percent!!! he is wat we need right now, a young man with new ideas that can cause good change! McCain is way to much like Bush, he cant give us wat we need rght now, change. If he got elected it would be like Bush was in office for another four years, and i dont think that any America would want that. Please everybody think about this long and hard, Obama would do so much good for us, and McCain wouldnt.

    Thank You for reading

  • Obama is a great speech giver.

  • from Denmark your greatest ally, PLEASE VOTE FOR OBAMA he is the only guy together with Al Gore that can change america from a corporation back to a country with a leadership fo the people, by the people.. U´re actions affect us when u catch a cold we sneese.. Do the right thing, if U have any doubt about what to vote, trust me on this one, U need this guy..

  • Obama will be a good president, just too bad he's religuous and therefore believe in a talking snake.

  • It's not a coincidence that the most intelligent, knowledgeable, successful people that I know (and I know a lot) ALL happen to be voting for Obama, while the semi-educated people of average intellect are against him. Those people fail to realize the brilliance behind his character. Smart people see how great of a position our country will be in once he's elected. Luckily, there are more smart people than dumb people in this country, so Obama will be elected. He will be the next great President.

  • If Obama was a women, I'd hit it.

  • he is just a puppet for the NWO, his speeches are just PR fluff, don't buy it. The Bilderburgs have already picked their bitch to be their face-man. McCain or Obama? It's just a show distracting us from the slow and terrible death they are bringing to the US. Do you homework and WAKE-UP! or stay asleep cheering on this puppet of the elite and NWO!

  • By RYAN J. FOLEY, Associated Press Writer

    Fri Jul 25, 5:07 PM ET

    MADISON, Wis. - Wisconsin Democrats on Friday ousted a delegate to their national convention for saying she would vote for Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain in November.

    Embarrassed by a defection in their ranks, the Wisconsin Democratic Party's administrative committee voted 23-0 to strip Debra Bartoshevich of her status as a delegate to the Denver convention next month.

  • Ah, this is that crappy speech where obama tries to cop out on the wright issue. Truth is no one in this country ever talks about race, so when someone does everyone gets embarrassed and worships the person who talks about it. Americans are deeply and internally racist, and in order to cover that up they would rather get psyched about the speech and bow down to cover up their secret hate, than they would admit they are actually viewing a fairly mediocre speech.

  • THANKS FOR THE VIDEO

  • what a bunch of balogne. dont trust the system its corrupted

  • What I see in this man called Barrack Obama is what i haven't seen in any president in the world.His charismatic leadership and movement has made America proud.His rule will be the best ever.If only Americans can decide this time to leave jokes and politics apart.He is what can bring togetherness and lasting peace in the world.His emotional and wonderful speeches transcends cross-cultural and ethnic boundaries.He knows what can remake America's degrading image in the world.He has all what takes

  • I have a question. Lets say Im a new voter and Im can't decide who to vote for..one of my big things that will decide for me is the issue on taxes..I dont make much but im not supporting myself yet..Im goin into college so I have a few years..but who should I vote for if I want a president who WONT raise taxes..I like to keep the money that I earn..I dont want my money going towards government programs that never would help me..Can anybody help me out??

  • As a native Philadelphian, I feel sick to my stomach to think that this sorry excuse for a candidate stood before my city and lied right to everyone's faces. He said he cannot disassociate himself from Wright just like he can't disassociate himself from the black race but then he cut off ties with Wright shortly thereafter. This man is a liar.

  • Obama is an incredible individual. Strong, moral, eloquent, educated, worldly, and inspirational. The US has tough economic times ahead, but Obama will get us through it. He's the man.

  • BIG PHONEY! Lets hear him write his own speeches as Reagan did. this guy is getting more and more cloned each day. you'd think with all the hoopla he'd be kicking McCain by 20 or 30 points. In fact the circus tour of oversea's did absolutely nothing in the polls! As with Gore and Kerry he will lose by a state or two! Its good to see this guy getting a slow death! By Sept/Oct he will be behind in the polls!

  • This is the moment we have all been waiting for. President Obama, our hope for the future. Fantastic !

  • obama is gonna betray you quit playing base ball and pay real attention to whats going on one world government where he rules and free speech is dead

  • This is the best speech I've heard in my life I can listen to it again and again! Don't miss this chance Usa!

  • One of the greatest speeches in American history. I honestly cannot understand why ANYBODY would give their vote for McCain, someone whose policies are nearly 100% similar to W Bush, after what has happened to this country over the last 8 years. Unless you are in the upper-class, why would you vote Republican? I can never understand how the GOP gets so many votes from working-class people who think the GOP is helping them.

  • taxes are going to be sky high if obama is elected

  • Not sure this is the greatest speech, but it does stir emotion. He is the candidate I will vote for in November cause I agree the alternative is way too frightening to consider. However, whatever happens I still believe in the process, the country, the redemming new start to work on all of our countries problems. Do I think this individual will solve all of them; No Way. But do I want feel we as a united entity can change our world; yes, Yes I Can!!! Exercise your priviledge to vote in November

  • the fact he is black, so sad ... so sad my americans , so sad that you can't see the greatness cuz of colour , so sad my americans

  • He sounds good when he talks. Great speech! but, who cares.... I want to see the fruit of his labors.

    The only thing i see is his future moving towards bigger government and higher taxes.

    but as long as he can talk smoothly he has my vote! ya right!

  • Hello Freepablo,

    I'm from the Netherlands and yes this is a great speech. And yes I support Obama, and no no no no no NOT McCain. Cowboy-Bush was enough

  • If you consider this UNORIGINAL, cut and paste, history sampling speech one of the greatest in American History shows a complete lack or understanding of history or a very shallow exposure to the greatest speeches ever written by real leaders of this great nation. Look byond the gloss and hype and look for the depth of character and you see how shallow OBAMA really is. HE has eloquence and charisma, but so did some of the greatest frauds of time. What has he done to change od truly benefit us?

  • Its funny hoe Obama's supporters don't even have the courage to face reality or criticisms on You Tube pointing out the fact that Obama has nothing to offer more than what he panders to an audience

  • Still, thats more than McCain has to offer.

  • if he wins, he can offer us a change, a new nation, we showed Iraq the path of peace now they have to walk it and i dont know if you have been watching TV lately but mccain is exactly like bush in every way when you come down to it

  • I think it's funny that you do not want Obama For president, When he supports one major thing you need, Education. What is Hoe?

  • Can't speak to those voting for McCain, prolly the same reason people voting for Obama. They are unable to understand the concept of freedom. Both sides view the peoples rights as granted by the government, so both sides vote for the Patriot Act, FISA... Our constitution says they are granted by god and are inalienable, and as such cannot be taken by the government. I don't blame the politicians, people work in their best interests, I blame us the people for forgetting our heritage of freedom.

  • wellsaid. im not a religious person, myself, but this is right on. how can we even accept the premise of the discussions about the patriot act and FISA? torture? as if it were even American to discuss the allowing of these things under any premise? its correct. its not our state, its not even the politicains state- its the corporate state.

  • Yes very you are correct. It's down by law that we are all equal no matter what bloodline we go from, just as long as we are born here and are citizens of this nation, we are all considered equal. Racism, however, still prevents the people of the U.S. to understand that (well the majority of it that is). I feel you on that.

  • Come on america, let's redeem ourselves. OBAMA08! We need change i mean honestly how much longer can we live with the way things are? Bring our boys(and women) back home, ease our dependance on foreign oil. Latinos for Obama.

  • Change? You mean like how Barak Hussein Obama changed his name? that kind of change??

  • I'm voting Obama because he's the lesser of two evils. BUT:

    1) Obama doesn't plan to send our boys/girls back home from Iraq. He plans to retract a majority.

    2) He is not easing our dependance on foreign oil. He rejected opportunities for offshore drilling and supports higher taxes on USA gasoline corporations...forcing us to subdue to major world petro corporations like ChinaPetro.

  • i wish he was running for prime minister here in britain hed have my vote! Embrace humanity not colour,have faith in eachother as humans.I dont think i could bare seeing another generation inheriting flawed ideology.weldone barack it takes a brave man to change stereotype without retaliation but i think your the one to do it!

  • all i hear is vote for me because im black and here is my story.

    i havnt heard anything that has to do with politics and our world and how this change is going to be brought about.

    can someone prove me wrong? anyone?

    same with mcain..and fox.

    and they talk about is an old white guy and a black guy with a hot wife who speaks for him at lesbian council meetings.

    Can someone tell me what his point of views are?

  • I guess for the moment just enjoy the speech. Its really well done. The rest we hopefully find out later...

  • you seem to be deaf to the outstanding ideology of this guy. his views: bring back the military, invest in education (reform segregated schools as a main ineficiency of the society), keep companies in the land and not overseas, analyze stereotypes and trace back sociological phenomenons to draw individual conclusions without biased opinions of commentators, even if he is your own pastor, rabbi,

    off course this speech had the overly taint of race, because that's what it was precisely about!!!

  • Have your ears been closed? Just go to his website for all the policies and views. He is the best for the job at moving our country in the new,right,positive direction. Obama 2009!

  • His and McCain's sites might be of interest to you. They're full of information, you just have to read it. Not to mention trying to find out what they both voted for as Senators. Might give you a better idea of what they're all about than Fox news.

  • "Can someone tell me what his point of views are?"

    I guess you didn't actually watch the video, or at least you didn't listen to the messages in it.

  • Change! He wants to bring Americans together to solve issues that have not been solved because of racial differences. Did you not hear the same speech we all heard? Maybe you are one of those people he describes as being brought up thinking Mexican's are taking American jobs or too many black people on welfare. It is corporate America who is ripping off the American people.

  • You want to bring people together to solve problems and then you blame corporate America. Sure corporate America is to blame but isn't there also blame in that 70% of black fathers abandon their children? Or that our schools fail our children because they refuse to remove poor teachers or even those that abuse the children? I don't have a problem with anybody but I do have a problem with people breaking the law. And bad people who run companies should be punished as well. Nobody is above the law

  • john lear said the vietnam war was "created" due to UFO cover-up. same as 9/11, Iraq war, etc, etc... etc! let us just all kill each other to cover up this phenomenon! oh let me add: the wall street crash, cold war, should i say more?

  • obama and mccain are politicians who want power first it just happens that obama is inspirational while mccain is almost dead..there is NO substance to either they just want power- they are driven by ambition and not ideology or principles- this is why you don't hear anything about policies out of either- and they both constantly change their minds about anything and everything! Americans want to be lied to and so they are.

  • there's hours of debate footage showing the candidates discussing their policies if you want to listen. this speech is about ideology, which is arguably much more important.

    the president is a representative of the country and shapes how the world operates. albeit the fact Obama and McCain are politicians in a flawed system, they have radically different ideologies AND policies. the outcome of the election matters dearly ;)

  • Well, I want the president of my country to be smart. An unintelligent man cannot deliver such talks.  You are entitled to your own openion!!!!

  • I agree with every word you said except for the last sentence. These dried up pieces of beef in a suits that we call politicians could give a rat's shit about the American people and the Constitution. They claim support of one organization to achieve some votes; they frown on another organization to gain other votes. Americans dont want to be lied to, rather they want a leader with some balls. More people have voted for the American Idol than for the President because politicians are disgusting.

  • Ideology & principles with no leadership are what have gotten us into this mess we're in right now. 2 wars that are draining our resources (not to mention killing our young men and women), credit and housing crises, an unstable market, a plummeting economy, a fuel crisis, and a serious PR problem with the rest of the world. Campaigning on ideology and principles is nothing more than a political gimmick to frighten the cowards to the polls. In practice, the gimmick is a death trap.

  • You are a buffoon. Those that want information one their policies, can find it. Those that want to remain ignorant do.

  • are you deaf?

  • Ombama should be the next persadent he rocks

  • He would be the worst president in American history. Worse than Jimmy Carter.

  • Absolutely, people just want to vote for him becuase he will bring CHANGE. He wants to punish the rich to give to the poor. What poor man can you think of in America that can give you a job. Give the rich oil companies a true tax break so that they can create jobs. RIGHT.

  • Hopefully he'll put more cash into public schools so you can learn to spell.

  • lmao, nice one!

  • Cash doesn't make kids learn. We spend $10,000 a year to educate children in the US and we have the worst test scores for developed nations in the world. Other nations educate far better for far cheaper. In the US private students are educated for about $5,000 a student and they perform better than public school students. If we want good schools, we need to fire the bad teachers. The unions which prevent bad teachers from being removed...ever...have killed the next generation. Tragic.

  • Hilarious!

  • where will that cash come from? higher taxes. The public schools don't need money they need to be disbanded and let the states and communities decide what we are taught, not the federal government

  • The money will come from bringing home the troops in Iraq. Now we have more resources to use INSIDE the US as oppose to throwing it all away in Iraq. This doesn't require a raise in taxes. Just a shift of resources from wasteful spending in Iraq to wise spending within the country.

  • Great come back

  • This is speach was very moving and for once i can say it sounds like an honest speech from the heart (i never thought i'd say that about a politician) i'm not american but americans should feel lucky to have someone like this running for president and for once vote for someone that is not only smart but very realistic in his goals and ambition ! GO OBAMA ! YES WE CAN ! ! ! !

  • Thanks for your support from another area. I will support this candidate cause he gets it. I still think this speech is still is too vague but it does stir a desirer in all of us to stop the madness.

  • is a great speaker!

    proly cuz he used to teach and do lectures

  • Great speech, hes such an inspiration.

    Please vote Obama!!

  • can someone please explain to me 7:40 - 8:20

  • he's giving examples of how we're all seperated when we should be coming together

  • preach it ma brotha

  • Barack Obama would be our next president... YES WE CAN!!!

  • AWSOME SPEECH

  • If you want to start a real peace on this planet, listen closely what Barak obama is saying in all his speeches... I'm from france and I'm proud of american people that a person like him is already at this place. I believe he is a right guy with heart and brain enough to change the way america is going today with bush government.

    This video should be send to all your american friends around the world that they can realized who is this guy.

    NOT ONLY AMERICN WANT HIM!!

  • It is great for you to say something like this. It's nice to know that people from so far away can feel this way about Obama. =)

  • a frog wants obama...enough said

  • this man is the next president of america VOTE OBAMA

  • I saw your comment on top of the post. You should be ashamed of yourself. Probably shows how most Obama voters think.

  • does anyone know where can i find the text?

  • Read this sentence twice, and

    we how you feel inside...

    Yes, We can!

    Yes, we can!

    In that line, there is nothing call

    white or black or what ever race you

    may have in mind... Its just simple.

    So, Be yourself and stop acting like idiot.

    peace  {By the way, I'm black}

  • Why all of the sudden is he so great? Before he was a candidate he was a nobody, now he is being compared to MLK? Yeah he talks about race and politics and whatever, but his biggest allie is his skin color. MLK. Malcom X, were visionaries...He is just an empty suit regurgetating speeches someone else wrote. Not that Mccain is any better, but better him than this empty suit.

  • cory:

    Do you know anything about rheotical discourse? In no way, shape, or form is that speech written by a ghost writer.

    Prepared speeches given to Bush or McCain could never be delivered as eloquently as this one. Get a clue!

  • someone like him doesn't come around every four years...we need him now...vote Obama

  • Obama can win,I think.

  • omg the slaves from africa were already slaves there. sold by there own people. where do you think the whites got the idea?? every thing obama says is written by someone else

  • Islam has been under attack many times in History and it always prevailed. What we are witnessing is the karma of the true god of Abraham .. he gave 8 years of a tyrant to Islam but it also raised curiosity, and when people see past what the US media propaganda tells them, the truth becomes obvious. ISLAM has always been and will be a religion of peace and equality to all races, genders and people.

    OBAMA - The world is waiting for you

  • Liberals of today are the Conservatives of yesterday. Republicans messed up big time, and the GOP really needs to reinvent it self, but from ashes, because unfortunately the GOP has to burn out completely before coming back. The GOP today is infested with so many NeoCons, you'll need an Orkin man to clean it up. God help up all.
