I'll keep the hope alive that the ones who have posted the hateful, negative and uninformed comments will one day be able to see the bigger picture and not let close-minded views shape their world. Positive change is in the air, we are all in this together. As Lou Reed sang "It's the beginning of a great adventure"

Let love and peace rule,

GO VOTE!!!

GO OBAMA!!!

Brian

I'm pretty sure that's my big clump of blond hair blocking your view.

Sorry about that.

[BrianGriffin1]

No Problem, It's all good!!!

and it's gonna get better!!!

[BrianGriffin1]

Thanks guys for all the POSITIVE comments. It was hard to keep the camera still, I was so excited! Bruce has been a huge influence on how I view the world. I have seen him 12 times over the last 25 years, this was the closest I've ever been! This was dream come true stuff. Now if I can only get the chance to meet him! Bruce is a true patriot, and he sees how Barack can bring our country to position of respect again in the world. God bless them. Peace to you all even to you McCainites!

Bruce's making America a better place. I hope his songs will be an inspiration to President-elect Obama and wish him good luck at changing America back to the great nation it used to be. Love you Bruce. Love you America!

Born to rock!

Thank you, Brian, for this very special video!

We need to keep holding onto this message of hope - 2 years into this administration - this video is a great reminder of that.

@Jazzman5456 Do you know who Thomas Sowell is?

@BrianGriffin1 Are you a facist, communist or just plain ignorant?

[mackan1079]

@furmountain21 why the hell would he hate america? hi is the best thing that ever has happend to america!

[furmountain21]

Obama is simply another lying politician...nothing more. I used to love Bruce Springsteen, but dragging his politics into his music has ruined it. I respect his opinions, but he's confused about the reality in this country. The Republicans and Democrats are equally to blame for the state of the US. Obama hates America and what it stands for. His mentor (Reverend Wright) hates America. His wife hates America. Remember my friend, movie stats and wealthy musicians don't live in the real world.
