A helping hand at the Obama rally

[poopstreek]

Too bad Bush and Obama have the same handlers at Goldman Sachs and all over Wall St, and NOTHING really "changed."

[Deadleader555]

Respect man ;)

[mindrelic]

hey just wanted to let you know this video made me smile

[nel713]

These animals can jump a 6 ft. security fence, but can't walk up a small dirt mound. By the way did anybody steal your watch?

[wolfgang8u]

Might come a day when you may need someone to save your life. And you know they would probably still help you even if they knew the comments you make. This is love brother

[nel713]

Over 8 million showed up for the inaugeration.

Only 27 had to miss work to do so.

[grayae519]

lol looks like your attempts to make people mad and argue with you failed

[f01863]

One of the funniest comments i've read,lmao!

[jbray241x]

You helped the whole crowd! :)

[wanderingmaster]

Heart warming :D

Much Respect my friend.

Love & Light

Pete

[adolescent900]

[ronmamita]

WOW!

People really are willing to work hard for a change in government! This is an awsome example of the effort ordinary citizens are willing to put forth to improve America!!!

Why was access so difficult to that event?

What about wheel chairs and ppl with disabilities?

[drumspirit23]

i'm curious to see what would happen if you went to a McCain rally and how many thank yous you would get there. i bet it'd be less

[Smraldah]

ur so cool man(;

[1650million]

That could be the sweetest spot for "thank you"s in the whole world. So... thank you!

[matrixcmitech]

that's the world i like to see

people helping people

for no gratuity

other than a thank you

broadcasted to infinity

[koalman]

What a great way to spend some time at an event. This is such a simple little video and yet I find myself rapt when watching it. Peace bro.

[MichaelErkerMusic]

A hand up is not a hand out.

[BUCKWHEATOBAMA]

...and a hand out is not a hand up.

[RudeboyRocksteady]

Great video. Thanks for posting this. There aren't enough people in the world willing to lend the helping hand to a complete stranger.

Jah bless.

[videoist]

favorited

[TexanCyclist]

Watching this video made accepting your friend invite a slam dunk. Nothing speaks louder than actions.

[racoonzdinner]

its kidn of interesting how men are more adverse to taking the helping hand.

[no2hate]

I was like a person who commented earlier - I was smiling through the whole video. You are a good man. Not only that, but it was inspiring to see people of different colors coming together to hear a man speak that offers a hope of change. Peace, freesouljah!

[BagOfEyebrows]

thanks for the invite to your vids, but I have to tell you, with grace and concern, that you unknowingly and unintentionally are leading this nation and the world itself to a form of government that destroys freedom, liberty and human rights. :( Socialism/communism... I know this will upset some folks who read this, I am so sorry for any negative feelings the truth I write brings, but as time goes on in the Obama administration, you will know I was saying this with love and concern. Peace.

[missgriffin77]

I had to sit and watch this entire video...it is one of the most beautiful things I have seen in ages. Good on you my friend!

[E1GHTY8]

Perhaps one of the most revolutionary acts I have seen on youtube.

Service is the one currency that still has value in this country.

Let the dollar fall and the people stand back up.

[Sasuke90954]

wow that was nice of u if it was me i just would have just left them

[tho3aas]

lol you touched so many people :D

[semcounty]

People like u helped Barrack win the election.

[aysha56]

i was smiling through all 11 minutes of this video, loved it!!

[HappyHater19]

WOW, THAT'S WONDERFUL!!!

[freesouljah]

not sure...but more people came than actually got to see him...there was a huge crowd waiting to get in while his speech was going on...myself included...

[moveahill77]

[angelovly]

I am touched and crying..what a video Thank you..Obama for the people

[freesouljah]

[Darkdays666gurl]

[cindysue89]

=)

[freesouljah]

hehe...thank you...

[BoywithCash15]

Your such a saint :) and you get triple point for being at a Obama rally :D

[freesouljah]

just me being me, and not ignoring my abilities or others need for assistance... ;D

[IrminC]

Both Pro-Israel Both anti-Iran Both said Iran was trying to get nukes Both anti-Putin and Anti-Russia Both pro war in Afghanistan Both pro bases in Iraq Both pro-war in Iraq and agree on the surge Both-avoid the bail out discussion Both pro-fed Both pro-"clean" coal Both pro-nuclear Both pro "green energy" so long as it has a fossile fuel base Both pro-NATO Both pro-NAU Both pro-Patriot act Both were supported by the Media.

[politiallyspeaking]

hippies.

[freesouljah]

yippies.

[SkaiHighCOnnections]

jerome :-D

[freesouljah]

right on...thank you!

[danacali13]

More people should be like you.

Nice Video. Great message!!!

Thank You for actually putting up a meaningful video rather than posting a video of you doing a jackass stunt or a montage of pictures like many users do nowadays.

:]

[freesouljah]

I do have one video of me doing a jackass stunt...but it is at the end of "earth day is everyday"...if you are interested in seeing me be a jackass for a moment... ;P

and to top it off, that video is a montage of pictures...hahhaha!!! the irony!!!

[danacali13]

haha wow!!

didn't see that one coming

its probably still a bit meaningful...i hope

[N0ahfrank]

Awesome! I love the kid singing the Indiana Jones song. Respect.

[freesouljah]

yeah, that cracked me up too!

[ALACRANITA20]

right on man!

[freesouljah]

right on!

[christopherinsc1981]

That was very nice of you. That was the only way to get to the place he was talking? Seems like they would had made a safer way in then that

[freesouljah]

yeah...pretty much...the roads were blocked off...

[quietpei]

This reminds me of the what happen when I went up to the great wall of China for the 1st time. The steps were very steep and I felt I wasn't gg to make it when someone lend me a hand. With that I was able to make it. The people whom u have help would be grateful to u

[freesouljah]

also, sometimes just the thought that somebody is there to help can give you the strength to do it on your own...

[flyngsnow]

super awesome of you to help everyone out!

[freesouljah]

hehe...thanks!

[alienspacecentereast]

You´re right, it´s a pleasure to help other people and it´s wonderful to see this video :)

[freesouljah]

I am happy to share my experience!

[BrutusCass]

Many people don't even stop and think of ours, this is one of the major causes for the problems of the world, and the solution is so easy, or at least it would be if people could free themselves them the chains of their minds.

Great video ;-))

[freesouljah]

thank you...

little solutions combined together solve big problems!

[LinkinSwordSlayer]

Yeah, thats really good! All we need is to come together as people reguardless of skin color, religion, etc. We need to tell the illuminati, NO MORE! Abolish the Federal Reserve, IRS,etc, bring our troops home and revive the economy. THEN we will be TRULY free! debt free, FREE of all of the negetivity of these evil governments.

[freesouljah]

indeed, to remove the veil and see the truth...

[truthspeaker969]

really nice to see people united and taking care of each other like this,

but be aware the change Obama brings could be

another kind of change than you were made to believe :

youtube . com /watch?v=sQWBklEEsiI

youtube . com /watch?v=3AmjvfD3g7U

[freesouljah]

I am not exactly "all for obama"...but I think he could be the best thing to happen to this country, politically, in quite a long time...

[darkdominance911]

THAt is what's up!

big ups brother.

respect

[freesouljah]

just happened to be at the right place at the right time... ;D

[ChaoticDisorderFuck]

U got any chance to grab any hot chicks ass...;) just kidding... lol

[freesouljah]

hehe....there were plenty of chances...but I chose not to... ;P

[freesouljah]

thank you!

[anarchyclayman]

gentleman

[freesouljah]

why thank you, kind sir... ;D

[jvforever72]

too bad the easiest gesture of all , voting for Mac , never crossed their mind :D . JV

[freesouljah]

it crossed my mind...8 years ago...this time around I couldn't imagine doing so...

[CraigInCT]

Look how much good just one helping hand did. -

Now, imagine if we all gave a just a little of ourselves to help our neighbors, our community, our state, our country and our world.

-

Even the smallest gesture can help someone get through a monumentally hard day.

-

-

I believe it was Abe Lincoln who said "Be Excellent to each other!" :)

[Greg78X]

SO you would join the military to help out your country?

[freesouljah]

indeed! well said!

ps...gotta love the wyld stallyns!

[NotSoOldHippy]

Love it. If I thought voting actually made a difference, I would vote for Obama.

[freesouljah]

right on...

at least obama had your moral support... ;P

[AshtrayHeartt]

Just awesome!

[freesouljah]

and fun!

[medicinesocks]

wow, a captain beefheart reference. cool!

[minstral2]

Angels are everywhere. :o) Have a wonderful day my friend. :o) Peace!

[freesouljah]

absolutely...you do the same!

[timbosccr]

Moving video. A lesson for both parties.

[freesouljah]

thank you... ;D

[missdivinestalls]

PEACE! Obama 08!

[freesouljah]

lets see what he does with the mess he is facing...I have high hopes... ;D

[funkymamaof4]

Inspirational, indeed!

xoxoPeace!

[coffeedude65]

awesome. it's great to see the real deal out there, helping people, living more than just words. right on. peace.

[freesouljah]

doing my best... :D

[Elaina43]

hehee - a good guy, indeed!!!

[freesouljah]

ha...I try my best... ;D

[Xanubi]

This video is awesome!

[freesouljah]

hehe...thanks...

[basementdweller1]

really cool!

you will really be amazed at how the smallest help really matters

[freesouljah]

I am glad I was there...there were some folks that seemed like they couldn't have made it up that slope without assistance...

[zimbabwe7]

This gives me great hope:)

PEace

[freesouljah]

right on man...right on!

[zimbabwe7]

Whats even better than your actions, is their reactons, everyone said thankyou, were willing to be helped and held your hand without hesitation, even those who didnt need it. Shows how the Obama people roll! Even in the speaches when obama mentioned Mccain ppl clapped, when Mccain mentioned Obama ppl booed. Keep the PEace

PS - Haile Selassies great grandkids! Blessed

[freesouljah]

yeah...it was a pretty cool experience...

that one lady that says "this is a whole lot of ass" cracks me up... ;P

nobody seemed offended by my offering to help...a few guys chose not to take it...but that is cool, as long as they didn't fall down...

[quicksite]

(( that one lady that says "this is a whole lot of ass" cracks me up... ;P ))

HA hah-- that was the same moment that cracked me up too, right around 3:23 ---

I still can't get a good fix on the geography.. This looks to me like they were all climbing a mountain to hear the Sermon on the Mount!

[freesouljah]

hehe...

it was kind of out of the ordinary...there was a big mound of dirt between the parking lot and the the street...the streets were all blocked off...so people had to park in that parking lot and then walk to where the event was at...over the big mound of dirt...

I found it rather cool watching people climb over it...until I noticed a couple people having trouble...one of whom happened to stumble right in front of me, so I grabbed her hand and just continued filming...all the while...

[Changes4TheBetter]

looks like youtube "special olympics" in full force, helping others... one helps when they r strong, when they are weak another helps them... people helping people

take care bro.

love

trio

[freesouljah]

yup, and we all need help at one time or another...

[Changes4TheBetter]

yep comin down can be the hardest part of the trip...1:28

[freesouljah]

she had a hard time...she actually fell right behind me, out of the view of my camera...but she started cracking up, so I don't think she was injured too badly... ;D

[KazukiSeirei]

Now imagine a world where we could all follow your example...an excellent example at that.

Thanks, Freesouljah.

[freesouljah]

we are all confronted by these opportunities...its just a matter of choice in how we decide to react to them... ;D

[KazukiSeirei]

And it's great to see people making the right one...Thank you freesouljah

[freesouljah]

you are welcome...and I am glad I had the chance to share this experience...

[b4u68k]

awesome :)

[freesouljah]

;D

.

[WindHarps]

"Love One Another." Wonderful video ~&~

[freesouljah]

thank you... ;D

[WindHarps]

In relation, check out my Obama Wins! video?

[TomGreble]

Such a simple gesture, but it goes so far. Doesn't cost anything, either! I'm inspired :D

[freesouljah]

didn't a cent...just some time and effort... ;D
