The Story of Us

You should be with us in 2012: https://my.barackobama.com/storyofusvid

February 10, 2012

President Obama wrote a message to us today:

"Five years ago today, a few thousand of us gathered in Springfield, Illinois, to launch an improbable campaign for president.

The task was to build a grassroots movement capable of making the kind of change we believe in.

You've got to see this video about that journey -- it will make you smile.

From the very start this has been an experiment in our political process, testing whether ordinary people really can still come together to change this country.

We proved that it's possible. But we've also learned that entrenched interests adapt and claw back even harder, which means this election will be even more of a challenge.

I can't wait to see what you can do.

Barack"

There's more work to be done, join us now: https://my.barackobama.com/storyofusvid

President Obama will prove to America and the World at the end of his 2nd term that he is the best President USA ever had!!!!!

This makes me happy

:) I'm not sure he's *the best yet. But that's only because of the serious competition - Washington, Lincoln, FDR, Eisenhower, Reagan, Clinton. Even so, I think he's one of the best and a serious contender for *the best.

This video should be seen by every person in the U.S.A. so that they have a true context for evaluating the progress, which has been made by President Obama.

The jobs graft should be in every add to remind people of the facts that matter.... moving from a loss of over 5 million jobs to a gain of almost 5 million is a change of close to 10 million

Great video! It really puts in perspective all the work President Obama has done. 4 more years!!!

I voted for Mr Obama in '08 because WE needed change, NOW. And now after 4 years of getting NO help from most of so called 'elected reps', you know, the ones that are there FOR America,

I say today, that I'm ALL IN to ensure that Mr. Obama continues to be AMERICA's president! May God bless Mr Obama and The United States of America!
