As a german I feel the need to say something about this man, particularly when he speaks at a place like this. This fine man exemplifies everything that I want from someone who prusuits politics as his profession. Albeit, he is still a politician and wants to be elected. He might be a good president, but he is no left wing messiah for sure. Still, I would give my heart to him gladly as he is my only choice and maybe my only hope for a better future.

LifeinaRaindrop, are you on drugs? I am a Jewish-Israeli citizen. walk up to any Arab-Israeli and they will tell you they enjoy exactly the same rights as us. As a matter of fact, our embassador to Finland is a practicing Muslim and some of our highest raninking leaders are non-Jews. To say we have a caste systems requires and abysmal ignorance or deliberate bigotry. Jews and Arabs in Israel share exactly the same rights.

1st african american to be president of the USA, a great step on the civil rights movement and a great step for America to improve itself. The Bush hurricane has razed and ruined our economy, let Obama be the calm after the storm.

c) He will secure the nation, but you should be more concerned about our economic and political well-being. Our founding fathers hated giving up certain rights for security. We should be looking to fix our economy and communities as a top priority.

Just to let you know I am a Jewish American and a full supporter of Obama.

a) he will sanction iran if he has too, but will actually talk with leadership of that country in order to see if diplomatic solutions are available. (what a head of state is supposed to do by law in the constitution). The Bush administration talked to N. Korea and that worked out, why does Bush refuse to talk to the Iranians?

b) Government sanctioned healthcare insurance. We are the only developed nation in the world without it. I am sick of having 3rd world gov. healthcare

The more I watch this video I am convinced Obama will do the right thing.

Obama is a smart man. He knows who is buttering his bread. I like him. I would be very disapointed to find out that he is pandering to Israel for the American Jewish vote. I think that he will do the smart thing as president.

My friend, USA do not want peace between Israel and palastanian. Hitler used Gas chamber to tourcher Jews. Israel want to do the Same to muslim. Why?

Hitlan was a Christian. USA want to sell weapon that's why they do want any peace between Israel and palastain.

Israel should wake up and make step for peace.

usually foreign representative visitors get a black kipah at yad vashem. obama got a white one. how come? to make sure everybody sees that he's wearing it?

Just came back from Yad Vashem very moving. No one is saying Israel doesn't have problems, however, if you understood their history I believe as a humanitarian they deserve a homeland, which Turkey and Britain ambigiously provided.
