Obama Fired up at Health-Care Rally at George Mason University

Campaign footage of candidate Obama? Nope—that's President Obama, making his last public speech in favor of health-care reform on Friday at George Mason University, looking more passionate than he has since the election as he invoked the figures of Teddy Roosevelt, Harry Truman and Ted Kennedy.

Obama's like a rock star. I don't know any republican with this kinda panache and charisma. Maybe Palin, but she's too stupid to go up against him on an intellectual level.

@jjay3200 i know i am not one to be the president i'll give that one to ya. Really though, shoudn't experience and credibility be a major factor in being president of a country? Or we should just leave that responsibility up to chance? This man was still judged by the color of his skin rather than the content of his character. M.L. King jr. is rolling in his grave right now! Please, get someone in there that knows how to help the country instead of carelessly destroy it.

You really want the government to have more control on you? Obama is trying to crash the economy so we have one world government.

Does history know it's right? Does it Mr. president?

I don' think he could be clearer, this is all about ideology and nothing else. This kind of radicalism should be terrifying, makes me feel like were less than a decade away from a police state.
