How I wish we didn't have to wait until Barack takes office and starts putting these plans into action because we need help NOW.

Im getting so sick of "hes cleaning up previous messes." A little snapshot of this administration, we bailed the banks out at a huge cost of trillions of dollars right. Well fine but now were in huge debt and we need to fund our gov. programs, so we borrow that same money from the banks and pay interest rates which just keeps on increasing the money in circulation. Which leads to inflation, higher interest rates which leads to a dead economy. Who else has been that bad? So dont give me that.

I respect your comment but most of the voting public doesn't understand Economics and need to at least hear something that sounds nice. The bottom line is that Obama is standing on the position that the U.S. economy has to do more to benifit Americans that aren't making a million dollars a year.

I've come to like Obama - I think he's a good candidate but unfortunately he does not understand Economics (not just this clip). Overall Obama's understanding on Economics is simply 'nice sounding econ' and that's not the reality. High competitiveness doesn't coincide with long term job security. I wish Obama 'could' choose Ron Paul as a VP - I'd be very happy for the USA if that was their Ticket.

WE NEED A CHANGE! OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT I SAY YES! He is makeing really good points i admire that. I say we vote for him. With his help maybe we can become a country of peace & harmony. Not a country of war & terror.

Obama got Swedens vote!

I can't believe McCain doesn't get it's about the economy more than anything else now... well I guess I can, the GOP attempts each election to change the subject. Billions in Iraq and the loss of our soldiers in a war that had nothing to do with 9/11 and the economy is of course effected by the war... and yet they think they can run on that record... yeah, well see how that works for you guys. Obama/08

Go out and vote people! Don't take it for granted before its in the bag.

[JoelTarnabene]

move to Canada instead. Australia will be nothing but a boiling dessert in a few years.

I like Barack BUT I'm not happy with his voting record. Actions (and votes) speak louder than words. How could he have been in favor of the bill that is being proposed (or may have passed) which would allow the telecoms off the hook for illegal federal wire tapping? If you're against the war then at some point vote against military funding on principal that you want the troops to come back. Take a position and vote accordingly.
