This Video did not change my mind.. I am not Voting for Obama. I could not beleive that they would add the american flag to the beginning of this video when Obama will not even stand at attention and put his hand over his heart in honor of his country. I am Very afraid of what will happen if this man becomes president of our country. Our Military needs a Comandor in cheif. Not somone that does not understand how important the American Flag is a symbol of freedom to Millions accross the world. I am most certainly voting for McCain.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to watch the video. I was unable to watch the infomericial when aired on TV. This video was nothing but AWESOME. Obama touch on all the issues he has been speaking on during his whole campaign. He is someome I would vote for over and over again. I trust that he will do what he say what he will do.. This country is in a need of change. Like he mentioned we will get through the rough times. We have seen it done by our mothers, fathers and grandparents. He will give us the help we need to make the change on our own. I really do believe this. May God bless Obama and his family and all the families in the Unites States.

First of All, thank you for keeping this video on line, so people like me who missed the live show can watch it.
I'm not an American, but I was moved by this man's words. I think he's the one, American need right now.
He can help Amercians to retrieve their lost degnity during Bush's administration.
After listening to him, I really wished to be an American and to be able to vote for this man.
I like him as a human, I pray for him, to get to the white house and proof me wrong that a good hearted person, can go to the house of the most powerful country in the would and yet be a human to respect other nations.
God Bless you Barack Obama. Keep your words for "Change" and I'm sure will make it come true.

I missed the live broadcast of Obama's Infomercial and I truly appreciate the opportunity to see it on this site. I have been reading about Barack Obama for two years. I contibuted to his campaign. I already voted for him (early). Seeing this video makes me glad I have done all of these things because I see more than ever Mr. Obama is what this country needs. The families who appeared in the video represent the marority of Americans, people who work hard every day and each year have a harder time making a decent living. Most Americans are not asking to be given anything other than what they have earned. They only ask for the basic necessities, including decent healthcare. They ask to be able to care for & educate their children. We need a president who understands this, now.

This infomerical, by this wonderful, strong, compassionate, brilliant man, who understands, and is in touch with true humanity, caused me to weep during the last 15 minutes. It was so moving, so touching, so poignant, so thoughtful, so true. I believe strongly in this man, therefore, I shall vote for him, the first time in my life I have voted for a Democrat.

I was truly impressed and like I told my husband if anyone is watching that doesn't have a clue about the issues they will most likely lean towards Obama seeing how compassionate he is.The truth is that this man is not what we need for change and the promise of our future! The real change and promise is with McCain and Palin.Here's why I think that...Obama has never done anything since being in the senate and is very good at speaking about what he's going to do for Americans,but did anyone notice his taxable income changed from 250,000 down to 200,000? This being a huge concern for small employers that will have to lay employees off now that they have to pay more taxes.Obamas Health care plan isn't good for anyone with existing healthcare they can't afford,like mine that costs over 1400 m

I was not impressed. Obama talks about how he'll give 95% of working Americans a tax cut, and all the new programs he wants to start. However, do the math and it soon becomes apparent his numbers don't add up. First of all, only 60% of working Americans pay income taxes, so it's not possible to give 95% tax cuts. Obama wants a trillion dollars in new spending, but taxing Americans in the $250K and up income range doesn't meet the cost of the programs plus the tax cuts.
A Harvard trained lawyer, Obama gives great speeches, but when you look deeper there's no substance. Obama has no executive experience, no legislative accomplishments, and his many alliances with radicals such as Ayers, Rev. Wright, Rashid Khalidi, Frank Davis, and the New Socialist party show his radical hidden agenda.

I think the infomercial was extremely informative, grass roots, right to the point, what America needs, and simply nothing left unsaid. I appreciate your publishing the informercial again. I really desired to see it again. I knew the networks would not replay it. But you did. Thank you. My vote is for Senator Obama. If all of America would be fair minded wihout emotions and viewing this campaign through the eyes of
race and color, ours would be a better place to live and place. One cannot really see the beauty of life with ancilliary and peripheral matters which are not the true issues. My heart goes out to Senator Obama. Not only will he have the task of presidential duties, but also of dealing with emotions such as race and control. Let me thank you again. God bless.

I like the video and the wheat represents our heartland. Obama appears to be sincere about the middle class working families and their struggles to survive in today's economy.
Obama is concise with his message of unity and supporting those without any means. His message is clear to the working class families that there is no true trickle down effect. Growth starts from the bottom than flourishes for the top.
I enjoyed the video and thanks HB for making it available.

I started watching it, but was forced to turn it off during the first 15 seconds because I couldn't stop laughing at the tracts of wheat, blowing softly and patriotically in the wind. Barack Obama says he stands for change in politics, but it's the same old hackneyed symbolism over and over again.
Even if I'd watched it, it wouldn't change my vote (and I am voting for him). I'd like to know who is truly undecided this late in the game?
Thanks for giving us an easy resource to find the video, HB
