Hi Ro and Sam... I'm an aussie and I really listen to youtube about american politics and where it stands. Mainly The View with Ro. I'll miss her terribly.
sorry I think OBAMA is too zealous then Hillary is and it is causing a rift in the party they need to Join forces and become the team to clobber the damn Christian Right wackos and lets win in 2009!!!!!
I was in that Pippin show with Rosie as well! Awesome. Our photo made it into Scene Magazine. Still one of my favorite theatrical moments of all times.
People, like me, would listen to Rosie because she is a very smart with an opinion that counts. I, personally, listen to everything she says because I can learn a lot from her. Never be afraid to learn from someone who is smarter than you are.
Oh, gosh, I really didn't mean it as a correction. I had never heard the saying and just thought it made more sense the other way around. It was really more of a question than a correction. Either way, I like it. :-)
Sam mentions EGO which is very interesting, and than proceeds to mention God. He's hit the nail on the head, for Dr. Wayne Dwyer says that EGO is an acro for "Edging out God". I believe that Rosie is 100 percent right in saying that we should mobilize the two of them, and then there would be strength in both Hillary and Obama's bases of operation. Just my opinion. Everyone's allowed to their opinion; even entertainers!
**QUESTION** Sam, what do you think about Obama's Pastor, Jerimiah Wright? I've seen some disturbing footage of his "sermons", to my understanding this is someone Obama holds in very high regard....A little scary to me.
As opposed to spreading this man's hate, please check out my favorites to view a couple different videos.
Thanks, I'm extremely interested in your thoughts on this matter.
Wether you agree or disagree with the comments made. EVERYONE needs to get out and vote when the elections are here. If you want to see change, you need to vote ad not just voice your opinions. It is the VOTE that is what is really needed. If the wrong party gets in then don't complain if you weren't there to cast your vote.
after 2000 i have really view the present system of voting differently. a liberal black woman in texas... i hate to say it, but i doubt that my vote makes a difference.
how true!!! Hillary and Obama need to stop the childish bickering because it is hurting the two of them where if they don't stop it now, we will end up with abother 8 years of what we are going thru now!!!
Maybe if the media stops showing the dirt...ad nauseam...the bickering will stop. You sit still and say nothing when people are digging into your private life. I think not. Sometime, if not often, the media is our worst enemy!
I agree. If Hilary and Obama keep at each then that means that Johm McCain is going to be a shoe in in the general election. I also feel that both Hilary and Sentor Obama are playiong right into the republins hands regarding Florida and Michigan's primary votes not being counted. I response is did the demcorates really are intrested in sending a person to occupying the white house. Are they simply giving in since they have congress?
I agree with both of you. The one thing no one is mentioning is the fact that the electoral system is corrupt and no matter who wins, they will have many 'favors' to repay to the Elite Corporate interests. NAFTA was a big mistake and now we are looking at a Global government. National ID and all. REAL ID must be stopped.
Very interesting Vlog - Sam & Rosie. I totally agree about the ego bit - what a shame if the dream ticket doesn't happen for that reason, and your country suffers as a result.
In Australian news this week, our new leader Kevin Rudd has made huge steps to bring our troops home from Iraq, and we couldn't be happier. Strangely, Bush has declared that Rudd is doing the right thing, and our countries are still allies??!!! Maybe even HE admits he stuffed up now?
Rosio like always is a delusional bitch... Poor looser now she is talking B... for free at least she is not getting paid for that... :D Hillary is a bitch like her she will never aloud Obama run for president. I don't like that crazy Rosio and Crazy lier Hillary :D :D :D
Just came back to look at your comments. Interesting to see how a great conversation has turned in to The Great Debate. World over this is the most passionate election USA has ever had and rightly so.
IT's NOT ABOUT WHO WINS WHAT, THE GOAL SHOULD BE THAT WE ARE ALL ON A TRACK TO A BETTER AMERICA! ONE IN WHICH WE CAN BE PROUD OF! I'M ABROAD RIGHT NOW AND I DON'T SAY I AM FROM THE STATES, I SAY I AM FROM SAN FRANCISCO, BECAUSE I CAN'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REST OF AMERICA WHO DO NOT, APPARENTLY, THINK LIKE THE BAY AREA DOES.
WE NEED PEACE, LOVE, AND TOGETHERNESS---WE CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN--LET'S DO IT PEOPLE!!!!!
1KrazyKieka, keep your head up and say you are an American and Bush does not represent the citizens. His approval record is at a record low. America hates Bush. We do need to Impeach Bush and Cheney first to show the world Bush and his gang of criminals do not represent us.
"Ruins democracy in the world, this is a 200 year old experiment." does she seriously believe democracy originated in the U.S. How about over 2,000 years ago in Greece Rosie. I have no doubt that democracy will continue in the U.S. but even if it didn't its bigger then any one nation and despite what Rosie thinks will continue worldwide.
The United States of America is a democracy based on capitalism (which now has run amuck).
Our Founding Fathers gave us "Our Democracy." They wrote the United States Declaration of Independence that states, "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" & our Constitution that includes our "Bill of Rights;" "Our Democracy" is a 200-year-old experiment.
Bush and his gang of criminals took a crap on our Founding Father's Constitution and replaced it with The Patriot Act.
mikwid, Honey, you mentioning your masters degree (you forgot to say in what) to get across your POV shows you have the attitude. I may have agreed with everything you said but . . . use your words as a sword, not your framed diploma.
I can introduce you to people who have many degrees who are absolute morons. Do not tell me you haven't met any of them because I would not believe you.
BTW, do you know what they call a medical student who got all Ds?
Really - almost done. I came upon a phenomenal person by the name of Tim Wise and you might want to hear his talk "on white privilege" as it is articulate and mind opening. OK, done!
I enjoy both Rosie and Sam(you go soulja boi) and think a forum where freedom of thoughts and various beliefs are essential to our democracy. I do believe we are all trying to achieve a certain degree of happiness and quality of life for ourselves and our families.
To continue, I feel strongly that, these are things which, if allowed to go beyond a certain point will be nearly impossible for us average Joes to attain in our life times.
Hello, everyone!(Refering to our converstion of about 13 hours ago.) Just to let you know as of now Ron Paul does not have any intention of dropping out of this race. Even if he did I feel it is important for all of us to express our own opinions and so I would still write Ron Paul in on my ballot so the message hopefully would get through as to how strongly many of us feel about preserving the letter of the constitution and strengthening the country and the U.S. dollar.
that's a rediculous reason to like him as the president. very surfaced. please...i didn't hear one reason why he should be the president other than nothing a coke commercial can't do for us.
oh, i'm up for a challenge. but what i try not to do is go to other people's blogs and denegrate them. but if that's your thing, go right ahead. you seem to have a lot to say, about everything.
Please don't except what Big Brother gives you for choices! Adhere to the U.S. Constitution and liberties for all! VOTE RON PAUL. Check out his videos - he's into uniting all of us "normal people" to make us safer and stronger. Join the march on June 21st in D.C. which mainly supports the principles this country was founded on.
mikwid, Ron Paul is great, really, but he does not have a chance of becoming President, ever. And you know that. It does not matter how many message board spammers he has attempting motivational babble. People that are tuned into the world are tuning him, and his "rloveution" out.
Paul is currently spending funds and human energy that could be directed to people in need and worthwhile causes. mikwid, he should be touring as a public speaker and writing books. Not trying to play President.
Continue to play his fantasy game until he drops out, but keep reality in your vision.

I aplaud Rosie and Sam for expressing their political views. NOTHING will change unless people discuss their views think about what needs to change and VOTE. If you sit around feeling hopeless and negative then nothing will ever get better.
how boring is someone's life if they waste it coming to a place that supports a view they disagree with? you don't see me trotting over to Fox, et al to say how wrong i think THEY are. agree to disagree people. disagree? make your own videos & express YOUR opinions. no need for snarkiness here.
Rosie, I had that same dream. I wished for Barack/Hillary ticket too. Your idea that whoever wins the nomination should choose the other as Vice President is a great one. I don't know if that's possible now. Hillary has taken the low road in this campaign. No matter what we Democrats have to pull it together. Great conversation with you and Sam. Thanks for sharing. (p.s. Rosie, thanks for all you did for NYC during 9/11 you're a hero!)
Just because somebody promises "change," that doesn't mean they can deliver it. Let's be honest, ALL politicians tell you what you want to hear -- then do what they want to do. Voting is a crap-shoot. Then there's Florida and Michigan whose votes won't count at all (no matter who's at fault for that). Yet, people preach that "every vote counts." I think not. I still don't trust Obama.
Did they brainwash you Rosie? what happened.. you went from a voice of truth about 9/11 being an inside job to almost supporting "100 year war" McCain..
Why don't you tell the American people that the republicans and democrats are in essence THE SAME PARTY?
Only Ron Paul/Kucinich/Gravel aren't working for the corporations.. tell the people the truth, we deserve it.
search for zeitgeist, freedom to fascism, loose change final cut.
This video is should be titled "Dumb and Dumber Talking Politics." (Rosie looks like she fell out of bed and took a bong hit. Sam has a 5-head not a forehead.)
"Ruins democracy in the world, this is a 200 year old experiment" the Greeks gave the world democracy over 2,000 years ago. Democracy existed in the world long before the U.S. ever did and will exist long after. Does the U.S. education system not teach yiz anything about the rest of the world?
Your right about that. The United States technically is not a democracy anyway. It is a republic. We proved we are not a democracy in 2000 when Bush won without winning the popular vote.
I agree w/ Rosie, seperately I can't get on board with either one for various reasons. But TOGETHER they would be unbeatable. I have a comfort zone w/ McCain because "you know what you're getting" and can prepare for what may come. Plus, he seems genuine and has MUCH experience and history. I have a very difficult choice this year......
I've been off Youtube for a few weeks. What I get from this video is a small bit of hope. That no matter which way the election goes, it will be better than it HAS been. I'm so ready for that! Thanks for the video :-) <3 griffmom
What a great tri-friend Friday. Ro had lost some luster in my eyes after the whole View/Trump fracas. However, Sam and her just click, their vlog was poignant, funny and smart. I loved some of the things that Ro said about the unified ticket. My belief as well. She impressed me much like she did on her talk show years. Thank you again for letting us into who you and your friends truly are about.
If McCain wins this NeoCon crusade that we're on will continue at the cost of American Lives, Security, Gold, and Reputation. Time to through out the Trash.
Yes he does. He actually has an incredibly detailed agenda, and it's unfortunate that you assume that he doesn't based just on the headlines without looking into the matter in more depth.
I'm still so confused. For several years I have not had a candidate I was really excited about. This year, is still the same for me. Although, I would vote for a Hillary/Obama or Obama/Hillary ticket. Separately, I don't know. I guess I'd hope for divine intervention.
A very important conversation. A dialogue that all of us should be having. For the good of all of everyone. Thank you SAM and ROSIE for setting this great example.
Great conversation. I think hands down anyone who is up for Presidency Ego is definitely involved. Working together is another thing. If two Egos were smart they would work together and keep their Ego's intact. I hope you get your patriotism back, I miss that when I go to the States. It's easy now to have zero faith in the Bush's, Something they will never regain. Let's move forward, I can't wait either!
This was wonderful to watch. I watched all three on Myspace and I just couldn't stop listening. You guys are so wonderful together. Wow! So much intelligence and fun. I am looking forward to hearing your surprise. You are great Sam!
Both Obama and Hillary do not support gay marriage, but unions. McCain is pretty much taking the Republican party line...which never ceases to scare the hell out of me.
just to be completely self centered.... Look at where McCain stands on Equal rights for gays, VS. Hillary VS. Obama... Hillary and McCain are not far apart.. and Obama has no voting history that i'm aware of.... if it came down to Obama (w/o Hillary) Vs McCain.. I'd vote McCain as I know where I stand with him and there's no mystery in his track record on this topic... food for thought...
Oneofthelmmortals: Yes, I had heard about Ro and Fran doing a series, I was just hoping Sam would join them. Could we be that lucky? I can't wait to hear the secret. C'mon Sam, talk to us, talk to us. :)
yes, lets all vote for Sam/Rosie.....you two could turn this country around with alot of laughter! haha We love you two....Still making up our minds...kind of turning more towards Hillary...we'll see. Lots of Love to you Sam and Rosie!!!
your gals in Florida...Angie & Louise
ps, we still want to come on your cruise someday Rosie...no kids yet, but we are a family, forever.
awesome storage unit! jk good commentary but also kinda shallow. no mention of others you would like 2b pres. no mention of standards or ideals for leaders. this seems more like an irrelevant play into what the politicians and pundits want.
tears in my eyes over this blog. this is SO huge! so important. and the passion & intelligence that you two have....i want our candidates to hear you.
watching you two, and seeing the absolute love you have for this country,really touches my heart. if only more people in the entertainment business could convey their passion as you do. you have no fear in telling it like it is. wow! you both are incredible. love you, sam and rosie! xoxo-vicki
Great conversation. So right on. It should be mandatory for everyone in America to do two things....watch this vlog and watch Sicko. Both very enlightening.
How do we get this message accross? How do we get people to understand the NEED for this to happen? How can it be so perfectly worded, so clearly stated here...and still twisted in the media to say something different?
I love your political discussions! These mean so much to us Sam/Rosie fans. We love to hear you two together, thank you!! And you're right, the dems must come together.
Posted by ro on February 16th, 2008 at 5:33 pm in in the news
"Has there ever been a more repugnant example of political pandering than John McCain's decision to vote against a bill banning waterboarding, putting hoods on prisoners, forcing them to perform sex acts, subjecting them to mock executions, or depriving them of food, water, and medical treatment?"
Ro knows that at this moment in time she is a media circus; therefore, Ro cannot come right out and say Hillary for President.
Ro is brilliant and knows they both must be on the ticket. She is saying, if you read between the lines, Obama has no experience and will learn on the job as Vice President.
It will take eight years for President Hillary and another eight years for President Obama to clean up the mess Bush and his gang of criminals mess.
Rosie is Brilliant! Everyone should see this video, Rosie said this better than anyone I have ever heard....Rosie ia all brain and heart♥ Rosie loves Les Miserable...I loved her little ending...I love everything about Rosie♥ EVERYTHING! 5 stars♥
Great video. Yes that would be a dream ticket. Don't think it could happen, but what an amazing thing it would be. Sam you are so great with everybody you have on. You go to their energy, their tone, their style while keeping your own all the time and making them open up. Of course Rosie O'Donnell doesn't need coaxing to open up, but still, you are so so good at this. I want my Sam TV!
Sorry Sam did not realize what I started...but hey you have to admit "the Sam and Ro Show" sounds like a HIT! I want full credit if you guys do a show on LOGO.

When Rosie O'Donnell said, "Ruins democracy in the world, this is a 200-year-old experiment," Ro was talking about present day democracy.
The phrase "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" can now be found in Chapter III, Article 13 of the 1947 Constitution of Japan;
in President Ho Chi-minh's 1945 declaration of Independence of the Republic of Vietnam;
andArticle 3 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights reads, "Everyone has the Right to Life, Liberty and Security of Person."

how boring is someone's life if they waste it coming to a place that supports a view they disagree with? you don't see me trotting over to Fox, et al to say how wrong i think THEY are. agree to disagree people. disagree? make your own videos & express YOUR opinions. no need for snarkiness here.

Rosie, I had that same dream. I wished for Barack/Hillary ticket too. Your idea that whoever wins the nomination should choose the other as Vice President is a great one. I don't know if that's possible now. Hillary has taken the low road in this campaign. No matter what we Democrats have to pull it together. Great conversation with you and Sam. Thanks for sharing. (p.s. Rosie, thanks for all you did for NYC during 9/11 you're a hero!)

Just because somebody promises "change," that doesn't mean they can deliver it. Let's be honest, ALL politicians tell you what you want to hear -- then do what they want to do. Voting is a crap-shoot. Then there's Florida and Michigan whose votes won't count at all (no matter who's at fault for that). Yet, people preach that "every vote counts." I think not. I still don't trust Obama.

Did they brainwash you Rosie? what happened.. you went from a voice of truth about 9/11 being an inside job to almost supporting "100 year war" McCain..
Why don't you tell the American people that the republicans and democrats are in essence THE SAME PARTY?
Only Ron Paul/Kucinich/Gravel aren't working for the corporations.. tell the people the truth, we deserve it.
search for zeitgeist, freedom to fascism, loose change final cut.

Rosie only had and still has questions.

Yes, Paul/Kucinich/Gravel are very nice old men.
However, please don't waste your vote. We cannot afford it.

"Ruins democracy in the world, this is a 200 year old experiment" the Greeks gave the world democracy over 2,000 years ago. Democracy existed in the world long before the U.S. ever did and will exist long after. Does the U.S. education system not teach yiz anything about the rest of the world?
darrenco35 3 years ago
Your right about that. The United States technically is not a democracy anyway. It is a republic. We proved we are not a democracy in 2000 when Bush won without winning the popular vote.

I agree w/ Rosie, seperately I can't get on board with either one for various reasons. But TOGETHER they would be unbeatable. I have a comfort zone w/ McCain because "you know what you're getting" and can prepare for what may come. Plus, he seems genuine and has MUCH experience and history. I have a very difficult choice this year......

Hey Sam,

What a great tri-friend Friday. Ro had lost some luster in my eyes after the whole View/Trump fracas. However, Sam and her just click, their vlog was poignant, funny and smart. I loved some of the things that Ro said about the unified ticket. My belief as well. She impressed me much like she did on her talk show years. Thank you again for letting us into who you and your friends truly are about.

All Obama talks about is "change". He doesn't say what he's going to do, he just talks about "change".

Yes he does. He actually has an incredibly detailed agenda, and it's unfortunate that you assume that he doesn't based just on the headlines without looking into the matter in more depth.

I'm still so confused. For several years I have not had a candidate I was really excited about. This year, is still the same for me. Although, I would vote for a Hillary/Obama or Obama/Hillary ticket. Separately, I don't know. I guess I'd hope for divine intervention.

Great conversation. I think hands down anyone who is up for Presidency Ego is definitely involved. Working together is another thing. If two Egos were smart they would work together and keep their Ego's intact. I hope you get your patriotism back, I miss that when I go to the States. It's easy now to have zero faith in the Bush's, Something they will never regain. Let's move forward, I can't wait either!

just to be completely self centered.... Look at where McCain stands on Equal rights for gays, VS. Hillary VS. Obama... Hillary and McCain are not far apart.. and Obama has no voting history that i'm aware of.... if it came down to Obama (w/o Hillary) Vs McCain.. I'd vote McCain as I know where I stand with him and there's no mystery in his track record on this topic... food for thought...

"Has there ever been a more repugnant example of political pandering than John McCain's decision to vote against a bill banning waterboarding, putting hoods on prisoners, forcing them to perform sex acts, subjecting them to mock executions, or depriving them of food, water, and medical treatment?"
OneoftheImmortals 3 years ago 2
Hillary/Obama all the way.
OneoftheImmortals 3 years ago 4
Ro knows that at this moment in time she is a media circus; therefore, Ro cannot come right out and say Hillary for President.
Ro is brilliant and knows they both must be on the ticket. She is saying, if you read between the lines, Obama has no experience and will learn on the job as Vice President.
It will take eight years for President Hillary and another eight years for President Obama to clean up the mess Bush and his gang of criminals mess.

You go to their energy, their tone, their style while keeping your own all the time and making them open up. Of course Rosie O'Donnell doesn't need coaxing to open up, but still, you are so so good at this. I want my Sam TV!
