Wonderful Short Video

Yes another corrupt politician was elected into office. Good job American people. yes you can! Yes you can! lol, all it takes is a few celebs, warm speeches, and a nice looking fella. And the American people fall for that shit. Well I guess McCain would have been much worse. It's just sad. Thanks for continuing Bush's policy on screwing the American people over Mr. President. Yes you CAN!

Just bought and saw this documentary film on how Obama was elected the 44th President of the United States of America. It’s been the 3rd yet it continues to be an incredible and very emotional story. Why is there such a quick change among voters after only two years…the man cannot do miracles in two years…hang in there, please!

Obama was never the underdog in the election at any point, against Hillary or Mccain. He won the first primary against Hillary and won the last. He was ahead of Mccain from the start. Never the underdog.

[icearmy2000]

good documentary. but its funny that people always say that he is the first BLACK president, that's only HALF true he is the first half black half white president. we are to quick to label someone with a race

[sidecar771]

@icearmy2000 In South Africa, under apartheid rules, Obama certainly would have been classified as disenfranchised colored. Racist societies judge those who are not wholly "pure", to be impure. The Nazis surely never saw a half Aryan/ half Jew as anything but abominable. Rest assured, in America, Obama is a black socialist muslim from Kenya.

[Wolfen443]

Is not Triumph Of The Will, the documentary that is. Is not like Obama can reeelct himself 3 times like Roosvelt. He is not havong much success either unlike the Fuhrer in his first 6 years. Will he survive politically to be reelected again>, Only time will tell really.

[OBAMAisHalfCaste]

Obama the first half-caste biracial mixed-race president not black.

[AtlantaITGirl]

OMG I'm watching this now and can't stop crying like a baby

it started when he shed the tears for his grandmother

its my right eye, it just won't stop!!

[infinitephases]

Me and my baby mama love you Obama!

[johnadams8000]

i respect obama, and i am actually glad we have a black president. it shows how far we have come. but really, WHAT HAS OBAMA DONE??? he is a kinda weak president. he has a majority in both houses of legislature, he can pass any communist bill he wants too! and winning the nobel prize, thats cool.... if he actually DID something!

[GodsWarrior2012]

Barack Obama the Master Puppet of the illuminati

[MrKermit09]

YOU HAVE GOTTA BE KIDDING ME FIRST THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE THEN THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

when will america wake up and realize that he has been in office for a year and hasnt done crap!!!

[ahmawad1989]

@MrKermit09 you gave bush 8 years to mess up a country but you cant give him longer ?

[eric251982]

@ahmawad1989

I completely agree. Obama has done nothing but bow to Bush repubs for the past two years. Let's let him bow and praise them for six more.

[BUGSY00]

Correct, the healthcare plan may not be perfect (and it isn't IMO) Medicaid is crap (most doctors will not accept it anymore), comparisons to Canada are inept for at least they have access to healthcare. The Health Insurance Companies are out of control and have 'THREATENED to increase fee's if we as a nation attempt to provide an alternative. Think about that for a minute, they are enjoying RECORD PROFITS, yet they are going to increase fee's? On what basis? We need reform.

[pdev411]

we need good reform not this bullshit obamacare. Also, comparisons to Canada are the opposite of inept - we need history to make decisions for the future. Yes these canadians have healthcare, but they cannot access it with their long waiting lists. Which healthcare insurance companies are you referring to?

[patriciaannpat]

@BUGSY00 you like Obama care ..all your medical records go to the IRS and they will take what they want form your account to play for what ever the Goverment tells you to pay ...Everything that the doctor types in the computer goes to Washington D.C. your Meds ..what illness you got ..they will determine you health care ! better go read it

[BUGSY00]

@patriciaannpat 1. I'm a veteran, so I have direct experience with my healthcare records being in a government database. I have not experienced any negative impact as a result if anything there is a history that is transferable nationally. 2. Where do you get your information regarding the IRS? There is absolutely nothing contained in that bill that has anything to do with them. I highly suspect you've stated that because some radio or talkshow host told you that, so you have been deceived

[SkeetJak3]

Este documental me encanta, lo he visto 3 veces y lo veré más veces estoy seguro! se ve toda la campaña que hace obama desde que es senador buf, impresionante y el final te pone los pelos de punta...

[richarjt1]

Saw this documentary 3 times and promoting on Facebook. We are who we've been waiting for and we can't move forward by criticiizing from the sidelines. I love what Obama represents - he made us believe in the process. For those who are bashing his healthcare agenda - at least it is on his agenda and not just an empty campaign promise. I support him 100% and love how this doc spotlights all the hard work of the campaign staffers did. It is truly about the power of the collective

[PugusGrapes]

@richarjt1 Haha too late to go back now.

[thisischerylb]

What I loved about this doc, was how happy people were to do this campaign. how hard they worked. I am sure there are other probably unflattering moments they could have captured, but I am sick and tired of the mud slinging.

Nothing wrong with showing something good and hopeful.

[MrBullfrog9876]

Obama is exactly what America needed ---- An airheaded CHEERLEADER! :( Now all he needs is a mini skirt and some pom poms and he will get America back on track. Democrats are so so very shallow.

[sunkist1976]

a national health service??

[salming112]

keep up the good work Obama!

[MalcomAP]

What good work?

[cotunes53]

Your right! America does need universal healthcare, look what good its done over in canada.

"The low end of waits are in Ontario with an average wait of 14.3 weeks for operations. The worst waits are in Saskatchewan with an average wait of 29.9 weeks."

[jrBunny1979]

LOL........But nobody in canada is going broke because they have to pay for healthcare.

You know who really likes stupid people like you?

The HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANIES

DUMBASS.

ENJOY YOUR HIGH PREMIUMS.

[lees20022]

HBO must have run Obama's videos on youtube during the campaign.

They are not allowing much of the comments to be approved.

I'm cancelling my HBO right now.

[JKB76]

Excellent. Will TIVO.

[mrmatalino]

God help us all...

[freeconservative]

what's wrong? don't like my comments? so much for free speech, huh?

[cosmeticnerd]

oh please, the private sector does not have to protect "free speech"

free speech means gov cannot infringe

youtube is not government

[freeconservative]

YOU LIE!!!

[freeconservative]

FRAUD

[freeconservative]
