  • Obama voted for war funding, he made the situation in Iraq happen. Does it matter what he says now?... one day he's anti-war, the next day he's simply moving it to another location. We're starting to see that he will say anything to get elected.

  • Obama has voted for almost all of the President's war funding requests since coming to the Senate. The single exception was the May '07 appropriation, when He and Clinton waited until enough "YES" votes were cast for passage, and then voted "NO".

    Politicians make a living by lying. Look up the facts for yourself.

  • Dennis Kucinich. who LED the OPPOSITION against the war, not just talk about it.

  • This shows the integrity, intelligence, wisdom & strength of Obama. I cannot give Hillary my vote simply based on her experience as a political wife in Arkansas & the White House, nor can I give it to her based on gender. America needs the best possible person. Obama can unite America & the world. If the world could vote today, it would be a resounding victory for Senator Obama, who, by the way, has a much deeper &relevant body of experience that he brings to the table.

  • obama didn't filibuster the war reauthorization, he's as complicit as anyone else.

  • You are nuts! OBAMA has publicly opposed this war since before its start. He is the reason there is a movement underway to bring our troops home. I would rather you simply say, "Thank you Mr. OBAMA, you have earned my vote!"

    OBAMA '08 for Peace, Prosperity, Unity & Honest Gov't for a welcomed Change!

  • Yeah, he's given plenty of lip service to opposing the war, but what has he actually done? If he had used his right as a senator to filibuster, the hawks would have needed 60 votes to continue the war.

  • well what should i say

    america has made a fool of itself around the world.

    i must say the political situation at the moment is terrible.

    america needs someone NORMAL in charge

  • obama known as other obomba

  • u kick ass!

  • this guy, he's.....he's very convincing. he is also right. if he's president, i'm pretty sure he will be the best president in the history of america

  • clear message to iraq ya they have to aproved first then troops gonna come home

  • He talks a really good talk. I've been incredulous all along, but the more he talks, the more he convinces me. Maybe he's just a silver tongued motherhmmr, but it works. If he backs up a third of his talk with action, he'd be the president of my dreams.

  • be ware obama sending troops to pakistan

  • if that where Al Qaeda is that is where we SHOULD have been in the first place...not IRAQ!

  • If American People can handle anything right, than it it to Vote for Obama !

    Im white and from Europe, normaly ishould be interessted in AMerica, but htis is the Future of the World.

    So make it right. Please..

  • Hey, Pornocastingcrew, why don't you stop casting porn movies, first (u, white from Europe) and so you can begin blogging clean, as a sober and a clear-mind citizen? I like Obama too, I was just offended by the your identity's title above. You are right, Obama is the even the word's best deal!

  • At the moment im no drunken and clean ^^

    I dont know why people "attack" each other, i got muslim friends and even knew some Russians and Asian people. We are one World and have to act like that. But there is one State which doesnt understand that but selling weapons for 30 milliard § to those saudis... Suprise, Suprise?..

    Greeetings from Europe

    PS: in the previous i wanna say "should not"

  • Did u watch phillygrrl's Dear Mr. President(Pink)video?

    Have a look! hope you like it!

  • hillary clinton answer way better then obama obama is anoying he talk alot

  • good man, buts theyll dig him under shit with the fox trick. then he wont be able to shine and thats it. some republican wacko would win. (foxtrick: like 911 saddam saddam 911 911 saddam, in this case- muslim terror obama obama muslim terror o bama terrorist muslim terror obama, get what i mean?)

    Hillary is a hardened trooper, and in the political superleague since 92 (we gotta be true here, it was a twin presidency with clinton <;p hilalryobamaticket!

  • even though this has nothing to do with obama i have to say youtube sucks... i just needed to get my message out i have had about 20 videos that have been rejected and they were free videos. youtube may close my account or the real people behind this account may delete it but if they do then everyone knows that i shall still strike through my friends (real life) account..... oh yeah Obama all the way.

  • Click on my video on top. I don't think you Obama and Hilary supporters know what's really going on, what these candidates support. Have you guys heard of the North American union? YouTube "CFR and NAU and the people behind it", learn about the plans to unite Canada, USA and Mexico into one country and how your living standards will degrade to slave level, all for the benefit of corporations. Google North American Union

  • Does SENATOR OBAMA care about the underappreciated but nevertheleless KEY ISSUES that are essential to the future of the nation?

    If you really want to know more about how to be a genuine independent and "vote different", then:

    Google these 3 terms: independence English PR

    GOOGLE the following 3 terms:

    ---- independence PR English -----

    ---Then press on the first webpage that appears on the GOOGLE list.---

  • There are a lot of issues that politicians cant talk about if they want to get elected, that's just a fact of the 24 hour news cycle and the CSPAN cameras

  • How about those who vote Obama go to the next war :)Obama, I am not voting for you anymore, you sound just like Bush with this war talk and the world has had enough I hope... America if you vote for Obama you are approving this war. Getting out of Iraq won't fix it instantly.

  • Sen OBAMA has a plan for bringing about PEACE! It requires diplomacy, proper use of resources and redeployment of our troops out of Iraq. Pakistan is either inept or betraying our trust. That is why the Senator said grab the criminals (that are under your nose) or we will.

    Al-Qaeda are the supply SOURCE for the murder of our troops, they are hdqtr'd in our ally's house. OBAMA is for PEACE, willing to talk to everyone but, he must also be willing to fight if needed.

  • yeah, but you wouldnt want to take the chance that hillary could win, at least with obama you have a good back up

  • sadly a lot of people will vote for him just because he is black instead of giving vote for a worthy candidate.

  • sadly a lot of people will not vote for him just because he is black instead of voting for him as a worthy candidate.

  • La lleva este compadre!! Toma Hillary!!

    OBama Presidente

  • Trojan horse

  • I'm tellin ya, the guy has the potential the will and the dedication. America just isn't ready. All because of a little skin issue.

  • OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!!

  • " Dear Mr. Obama" Welcome to attack or invade Pakistan, disregard any hoax of mushrooms, as babs are not here any more.

    Or Let India do the job for you.

  • Obama is a hypocrite! He just announced he would invade Pakistan and Afghanistan if he where in charge! He spoke for the lobbies that push for the war and he also promotes the North American union with Canada and Mexico!! Obama is a liar and a sold out! A fraud! A fabricated candidate! Open your eyes people! He is as war mongering as Bush and Hilary!

  • Sen OBAMA has a plan for bringing about PEACE! It requires diplomacy, proper use of resources and redeployment of our troops out of Iraq. Pakistan is either inept or betraying our trust. That is why the Senator said grab the criminals (that are under your nose) or we will.

  • Gabriel did his job! Christ (the word) was ignored and Christianity became a perversion because no one listens to Christ's teachings at all!

    The Jews are the sons of Jacob who was a thief and deceiver! He stole Esau's birthright that was why God named him Israel, which means he who struggles with God!

  • Esau was a fool who sold his birth right to Jacob (Israel) for a bowl of soup (Gen. 25:31-34); thus, Jacob was not a thief. God continued his covenant through him. Jesus is the only way to salvation. No other human can save our souls for eternal life but Jesus, the Son of God. Christianity is the way to salvation not perversion.

  • yay love him!!! hopefully he'll be the next president... but screw cnn theyre zionist supporters which is so totally lame if u havent heard

  • His skin color believe it or not is the only thing that scares me. If he was a middle aged white man believe me Hillary would already be running for VP

  • We're all the same on the inside... Skin color means nothing because I know bad blacks, whites, asians and europeans aswell as genuinely good blacks, whites, asian and european people. Don't be afraid of all black/colored people. Obama is a good person.

  • GOD is merciful! But, we can't seem to pass the one TEST that will DESTROY this planet & its inhabitants. The test is superficial. Would you recognize the 2nd coming of Christ if, GOD sent him in Barack Obama's body? Suppose the Christ came with skin the color of burned brass & hair like lambs wool(an Afro); would you recognize him? Of course you wouldn't because you are as blind & foolish as your Dad & people 2,000 yrs ago! Shame on you! OBAMA '08 for positive change & UNITY.

  • FreeME-dot-tv

  • Wow, Obama Drama. This guy is definitely a fake.

  • He seems like the best candidate. Lets hope he doesn't lose because of his skin colour.

  • like all candidates did not have interest groups in their pockets

  • Do I choose Obama or Clinton?

  • Obama talks and talks and talks about how he was against the war from the start, but what is he doing now to end the war besides speaking? Hillary is at least putting pressure on the pentagon to start planning for a fast and safe exit strategy.

  • Well for starters he's running for president and has been calling for an April 2007 withdraw date for some time. Hill has actually navigated her war stance towards his and until this year she really kinda was Bush-lite on Iraq. Like bush she has no qualms about preemptive warfare and unlike Edwards she's never truly apologized for her vote. To me her anti-war position is only for the sake of the primaries.

  • Beware, Hillary Clinton is a political mastermind. Did you know that she intends on outsourcing American jobs to foreign countries: India. Hillary is for big businesses. She may be an ideal candidate, but she will do her part to destroy this country from within.

  • Very good point. Also, what really Hillary did as US senator for the people of New York? If she was unable or reluctant to do much for New York State what make you think she is gonna do anything for the people of the entire United States? I used to like her as the "first lady" and I had lots of respect for her for sticking to her husband after Monica Lewinsky scandal but now... I am sorry, I can't say that I trust her.

  • hillary is way too vague when she talks about her views, anything could really be true with her

  • Preteens should not worry themselves about politics...or they end up making comments like this one.

  • Did you end your education after the 5th grade? Or are you naturally that stupid?

  • Obama rules. Hillary is George Bush in a dress.

  • RON PAUL 2008

  • HEY A SPOKESPERSON FOR YOUTUBE FANS...YOU INTERVIEW ALL THE PRES CANDIdATES Then report back here :)

    First question to OBAMA: Sir, WHY DID U WAIT 17 yrs to pay 17 TICKETS and then announce your candidacy?

  • I wonder why I am being, [{( BLOCKED )}], from posting text on the John Edwards video: }}}}} You have been blocked from commenting on this user's video {{{{{ - [ John Edwards -- Post-Debate Webcast ] and [John Edwards -- Hair ] VIDEOS - - It seems, like, CENSORSHIP - - ***** Censorship is defined as the removal and/or withholding of information from the public by a controlling group or body. ***** -
  • He couldn't win mayor of a small city, much less beat a Republican!!!!!!!!!

  • Sound intell, the same intell Bush used???. He would have done the same as Bush because he says he would you sound intell. Earth to Barack what the hell do you think bush did. .He used our Intell, British, Russian, Israel, and others , why would Barack would have done anything different.....

  • he says uhhh to much but i think he has my vote

  • Please go to "Kosovo, Serbia: Church set in flames by Muslim Albanians04" on youtube. Your pPresident Bill Clinton supported this. Your President George Bush supports this. What is your opinion?

  • Please visit another youtube video that shows the TRUTH behind Hillary...I can not put the url because the site will not let me...but search by the name....

    Hillary Clinton Flips on diplomacy

    view, rate, comment, and pass along to who you see fit...

  • He is smart and I think he is the right man for this job. Obama for President

  • Elect Obama!

  • How stupid is he to think you can know how to exit a war before it starts. War is not so simplistic, and when you are constantly fighting within our own country when the President's opponents only want to see him fail. Remember if Bush would had done well in this war(even if the Dems voted with Bush) the Dems would not smell victory for a long time. Their only victory they wanted was to win back power by sacrificing the mission in Iraq..

  • I would not call him a war time President. When America is at war we need a two fisted President from Texas...not this young guy.

  • Do you even understand how badly your "two fisted" President from Texas has run this country?!? I am only in my twenties, and i am already concerned about whether my children are going to have a decent future, terrorists groups or not.

  • When will the majority of this country learn that this country will fight terrorism better, not by spending billions of dollars on missiles, but by spending billions of dollars on education to make our future smarter. And yes, i know exactly what you are going to say,"there won't be a future if they win the war on terror". yes there will be, those terrorists are a half a world a way, and what we need to do is defend our country on our OWN soil.

  • Well, America will never learn. The United States of America is right now the only developed country that is still living in the time of Cold War, and seriously, those Americans should stop thinking that the world STILL needs America for anything.

  • ya...two fisted president from Texas and see what he has done. The United States of America is right now almost about to self-destruct. All thanks to Bush.

    I mean, I really thank Bush for doing that, because I don't really care about the future of America.

  • Barack Obama is a great guy, and what he is saying is true.

  • Newt Gingrich for president! He's the only one with thorough, intelligent answers!

  • It's like watching your next door neighbor in a community debate, except...this is a Presidential campaign. Lol

    Sweeeeet, i'd vote him if I was in the US

  • ew. hes a loser

  • i may not be a political expert, but what obama says makes more sense than what clinton recommends. he has a different way of thinking. what is wrong with that? no matter what political experts think, there are people alive who don't think his answers are naive or irresponsible.  go obama.

  • I was just watching Barack Obama Senior Strategist on Hardball.. He was just hammered by Hillary spokeman. Barack needs to put people out there that is as aggressive or even more aggressive than the spin machines.Obama guy just could not have gotten much in on that debate and if these guys represent Obama on hardball or anywhere else they need to be aggressive to get the message out.

  • This is exactly the kind of person that should be running this country. Lets bring some responsibilty and accountability back to Washington! That debate sure made up my mind... Obama all the way!

  • barack 08

  • i love this guy

  • Well said Mr. Obama.

  • The war may not have been the best idea but if we leave now we will just be going back again for Iraq War III... That is the unfortunate truth.

  • Any potential Iraq War III could never be as bloody as Darfour.

  • excellent response. this is the kind of leadership we need in this country

  • Liberals pose more of a threat to our country and our way of life than al-Qaeda. Scary.

  • I never said you cut and pasted anything, I was talking to rascal 95113. But lets see what you say.. Hmm, seems you are an idiot, as I want the troops out of Iraq so you can just kill each other fighting your silly religious and civil wars. I don't believe in Jesus or any other gods, so I won't be praying to them. And I think Bush is an idiot. So what is your problem?

  • they want troop withdrawal. how exactly do they hate our troops.

  • A Cut and paste if I ever saw one (googled the quote and found it). You oppose Democracy my friend. You oppose the very thing this country was founded upon. You are nothing but a parrot who is unable to think for yourself so you resort to erecting a paragraph of straw men without any substance behind why you make your statements. Try coming back with some meaningful dialogue and some "why's" for your statements and we can talk.

  • the guy that said follow the money was right

  • I am Liberal..

    I have served my country

    I was a troop

    The enemy now is the person who keeps us in harm's way fighting an unwinnable war.

    Have read the constitution, and can't find where it says the President can act like a Despot

    Can debate facts, if you would state some and not simply just spout idiocy.

  • Talking out of both sides of his butt. He will tell anyone anything they want to hear. He is also very deluded about what he will be able to do Day 1 of his administration...God forbid.

    Lisa Krempasky

  • We CAN however own our own behavior and what a bliss day it could be if united in just that! I could do more, you could do more, and yes, they truly can do more, be more and create more... if it just was'nt politics as ususal!

  • The man is an amature ... weak, silly and an amature

  • Obama is a great politician; however can he solve problems and restore the dignity to the people's of Iraq, Iran, North Korea, Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Afghanistan etc..? It seems his willingness to have duologue with the leaders of these countries is a telling sign that he is ready to deal with the issues and not the destructive unwillingness to understand the needs these organizations have.

  • Can they (troops) really get out by next year, is the mission complete or will leaving just make things worse. If these plans of getting troops home are true, why are there talks about a draft?

  • OBAMA '08!

  • You truly rock - speaking the truth is so refreshing!

  • Dr. Mr. Obama, And Thank you for posting my comment without censoring it as was done to me by the Clinton Blog.

  • ok Barack Please expain to me why you have deleted and censored out my comment/question regarding your affiliation with the CFR. Please explain to me why you have taken the same initiative on blocking out my question regarding your position on the federal reserve and the fiat money system.

  • Man we soooo need a president from either party that will move us to a better place.. but most of all .. We need one that moves us, inspires us, makes us hope for something better. Its just been to long.

  • OBAMA!!!!!

  • Right on Mr. President!!!

  • It's great to hear direct responses and clear answers.

  • Great response!

  • u are 100% right

    thak u

  • Obama: "When i'm president"

    lol, I hate cocky and arrogant people.

  • That's because insecure people like you don't know what "confidence" means.

  • it's a debate strategy, speaking as if he has already won so that people will feel that he is going to, it's not cocky, it's how you are suppose to speak in a debate for any position INCLUDING class president/treasurer etc.

    or are you just looking for something to criticize like a bored homemaker

  • cool video!

    justin

    youtube/doublechins3892

  • USA created Osama. America is so saturated with propaganda bull shit that it's scary.

  • I'm all for Barack Obama. I had a report to do for my last year in highschool back in 1999 and believe me back then I was not into Politics. I came across Obama and I just had so much to write. I'm glad he's running.

  • sounds good

  • I like how he says "when" i'm president of the United states, i'll....

  • what liars and a poor choice's for president it looks like usa will be united soviet states soon if these fools get control

  • "Judgement" is spelled wrong.

  • Fantastic Presidential material!!

  • Obama is dead on, anyone who voted for this war should not have their job anymore!!

  • I am with you 100% Roleram.

  • He said talk to other countries. Do you seriously think Osama is a country.

  • If you want peace talk to Osama bin Laden, oh wait he will kill you.

  • Oh wait who created Osama? USA.

  • You just hear what you want to hear. He is talking about Iran and North Korea.

  • Obama oh yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

  • Did anyone catch that he said "when i send our troop into battle" not "If i send our troops"??? does he also intend to start a war for popularity points as bush did?

  • noticed that too

  • Times of Jacobs troubles!?! Best pick ur best new Prez cus the Weather can't be manipulated ladies!

  • Hillary has definitely had a major facelift.

  • Hillary has definitely had a major face lift.

  • Yo,Yo,Yo we's gots a new president coming soon. Finally I's be getting my reperations.

  • İ LOVE MUSTAFA KEMAL ATATURK

  • obama kicked everyone's asses in this debate.

  • secong favorite ~!~im still with hilary~!~ lol

  • Obama - you blasted everyone in the youtube debate. Great job. I thought you were the clear "winner".

  • hi i am from turkey i love NBA memo and hedo my favourite is STEVE NASH

  • I vote to no one , they're all the same, They are all don't deserve to be presedent.

  • y dont u vote for me i am ethiopain who just become a us citizen if u vote for me i will make sure ur bills paid on time, go to ur work or home safe and even i will make sure u got three meals a day so vote for me plz

  • That's wonderful that Obama was cautious in going into Iraq but that's the past. We are talking about the present. What can he (or any of these candidates) do NOW to fix it? That's the real question the next president needs to answer.

  • Ha. He owns.

  • I'm voting Barack in '08

  • You have no idea what you are talking about...only what you are told by Fox news

  • I'm referring to rascal95113 below...not Obama...obviously Barak has brighter plans for this country than any conservative

  • he's got my vote

  • He will most likely make vice president, if not president.

  • i am gonna be a proud american when i'll vote for obama

  • Well this is part of the problem with Obama; he is too inexperienced.

  • If I was american, I'd vote Obama. He's fresh, talks good.

  • Exactly, and if you wanna know the truth about Hillary, check out her interview with Olbermann here on youtube.

  • if i was American i would go for Clinton

  • Now this is a real leader. Go Barack!

  • He scares me too. Very well spoken and turns everything around to make himself look good. We are in trouble.

    God Help Us

  • I'm am definitely voting for you Barack.

  • Mr. Obama; you cannot be that stupid - how can you plan for getting out of a war as you are going in (generally that depends on the outcome). Further, I realize that you feel it is important to 2008 and beyond that we continue to talk about the mistakes made by people who supported the war going into the war. It cannot be changed. Finally, how is your exit strategy different from the version in the congress - do you believe that what you are proposing is new?

  • i think hes talking about da facts dude, really we didn't have any facts dat "iraq" had weapons of mass destruction :)..and all we really found was some bombs,

    nothing dat big, i agree wit everything else dou lol u rite why is he different..(im not talking bout da fact hes black) lol hahahahaha

  • of course you should have contingency plans for a big decision like going to war. any form of management, whether business or national government, whom implement some form of action plan, also set down targets and standards, and down the track, as part  of quality management, these leaders reflect on their achievements. To say we should go to war without some exit strategy is ridiculous - just as ludicrous as the bush administration itself.

  • Obama's cool. His goal is to pursuit a better, and safer tommorrow. Something we lack, and drastically need.

  • Depends on your definition of "better, and safer".

  • Better - More opportunities, and less diversion

    Safer - No war, and more comprimising

    Lessen the rate of dead soldiers.

    Cut the expenses on war....etc

  • I think you would make a good president, but dont beleve americins will give you the chance. I was a cab driver from portland,Or. for 20 years. You need to stop the fear and unight the poor. I beleve they will give you a shot at VP.

  • Yay

  • In 1989, a girl named Jen in a red dress was raped. When the rapist had finished, he shot her with a gun and then he committed suicide. Now that you have read this message her ghost will KILL you, and she KILL YOUR mother in thirteen hours UNLESS you IMMEDIATELY take the steps below:

    (hurry, u and ur mom might die! :-0...)

  • Obama is done.

  • blookup you're done!

  • Obama is a great guy, and has a great personality...I would love for him and Dr. Paul to go at it as the front runners...Ron Paul has a great deal of experience and a masterplan to get this country to uphold the real American values set by the constitution which has really yet to be followed fully since the start of this "ideologically" great nation...

  • WHERES AL GORE

  • Obama is definitely the way to go. He had the foresight that the war was a mistake in the first place. He will use similar foresight coming from his intelligence and rational thinking to restore our standing with the world and diffuse the tension in the middle east. Also, he isn't taking any money from special interest groups so he won't owe any favors. At the same time he was able to inspire and unite a record amount of people to donate to his campaign, shattering all previous records.

  • Rock on Obama!

  • Amazing man.

  • OBAMA 08!!! he's going to end the war in Iraq!! he's going to raise the minimum wage!! he's going to end racism!!

    OBAMA 08!!!!!

  • Congress has already raised minimum wage, Obama had nothing to do with it.

  • Yes I know, I'm talking about in the future- "Obama is advocating a "living wage" that would go up as inflation rises and he has promised to eliminate the phrase "working poor."

  • I understand your point; I guess I am looking for someone who will also reverse Bush's tax breaks, given to large companies. The tax brks were to be an incentive to re-invest into the US and create jobs. But companies outsourced the jobs to other countries. I want tax brks 4-the low and mid class, and these companies be held accountable. Obama has yet to comment on these issues. Saying that you will raise the min.wage is useless, as it requires Congress- therefore; I see his statement as a lie.

  • Obama, while you have been Illinois senator the cost of gas (4-homes) has gone up almost 30%, electric bills have gone up almost 30%, phone bills have gone up almost 30%. While you were supposed to be at work- working for us, you were on Oprah promoting your book. In Illinois, cars older than 95 are no longer required to test emissions, Chicago schools are in severely poor condition, and the list goes on. If you can't handle the job of senator, why should anyone vote for you?

  • I thought this made sense. It is good to hear someone stand up and give the American people hope.

  • Hope is good but we need "results". Obama hasn't really convinced me yet that he actually has a plan. His comment on nuclear energy was a big disappointment also.

  • haha it was hot in baghdad so he took a vacation, that was a good debate with excellent questions, I hope they continue doing these debates to hear the voice of the people, good job Obama.
