people say Obama's words are just words...
but...
when was the last time "words" weren't important...???...

when was the last time a great leader didn't use words to lead...??...
when was the last time a person didn't use words to describe how they felt...?...
when was the last time "words" weren't empowering...?...

and we can all recall the last time "words" were used to divide us and install fear...

Bush used words to fear us into voting for him the second time around...
terror this...
terror that...
nuclear here...
weapons of mass destruction there...

and those words effected a lot of people's choices...

"enough is enough"...
let's rebuild...

let's change ourselves...
let's allow positivity to guide us...

let's take action....
let's activate our passion...
we are Americans....

and this is the first time in forever that someone running for president represents "US"...

some say this is all excitement...
I call it "proud to be an American"...

some say this whole Obama movement is "cult like"...
well...
if it comes across cult like...
then...
the cult is called America...

the Obama movement is connecting America.
and it has made "US" realize our importance...
the youth is excited and activated...
adults are passionate and motivated...
the elderly are proud to know the country they built is in safe hands...

we are one...

for too long politics has been corrupt...
separate from the American people...
with agendas that go against what the American people "need"...
education...
health...
safety...
jobs
etc...

politicians have spoken a different language...
making it so the youth and poor people feel as if voting was only for the wealthy and old people...
making "US" feel as if "we" had no voice...
making "US" feel powerless...
making it feel like if "we" did vote it wouldn't change anything...

but wait...
that did happen...
some of us voted, and it didn't change anything...

we were in the dark...
we had no voice...
we were powerless...

because America was not a united America...
and "they" spoke a different language...
and they had an agenda different from our well being...

correct me if I'm wrong... or speak up if I'm missing something...

we want education, health, safety, and good jobs...right???...
oh yeah...
and "a healthy planet to live on"...

but here we are...

in a war... poor education... poor health programs... the dollar is down... the planet, polluted...
the rich, richer... and the poor, struggling...
with sky high gas prices to top it all off...

and now even the rich aren't really rich internationally because our dollar is has fallen so far down...

in our slumber... a very small few got really rich...

because when you're sleeping...

"it's hard to change agendas"...

we know what happened in 2000 and 2004...
but in 2008...
it's different...

we are awake...
and there is a movement...

and "it's hard to change a movement"...

last time "we" didn't have a movement...
America wasn't united...

and now "United and "Standing"...for something...
we know the power of "US"...
and we have a person who represents the "U.S."...

"US"...

"we are the ones we've been waiting for"...

I'm proud to be an American...

  • we were the fools to believe

  • OBAMA !

  • Obama!!! This video gives me hope :) Fuck Bush he can go eat shit! Obama is just stuck cleaning his mess. Let him get 1 more term & he'll be able to complete all that he wants for us. Obama!

  • Man these celebs were naive in 2008. The sad thing is many sill have the Obama blinders on.

  • @citrick23456789 Obama is not going to win! He is a Marxist! RON PAUL 2012 BOYEE!

  • @danbowski40 OBAMA 2012

  • He is going to win again, all the republicans are fucking idiots. Also, you say Obama hasn't made any change? He has made 3.2 million jobs in the last 22 months. So you haters should actually watch something instead of the bullshit on fox news&glenn beck and look up the damn facts. SO sit down and shut the hell up.

  • @coastguard1314 Yeah, he's in, all right. He's in deep shit!

  • @mronenight100 I don't care if Obama's white, black, yellow, or green, that's irrelevant to me and to most people, it's POLICIES! Bush left a mess, but Obama increased it. Put us into debt where our kids and grandkids will be left to pay for it. Most Americans are against Obamacare, most Americans supported the Arizona bill but Obama wanted to sue them. True leaders will not apologize for his country. Obama wants to give illegals working papers to take jobs away from citizens.

  • I supported Obama in 08 and was feeling disappointed in him for not closing Gitmo, sending more troops into Afghanistan, blowing kisses to the oil companies by continuing to support offshore drilling, for selling out on the public option in health care reform and for and a few other reasons..BUT watching the current GOP field has caused me to renew my support for OBAMA in 2012! Yes, we can change this country. Yes, we can repair this world. Yes, we can!! We MUST NOT hand the whitehouse to GOP!
