I'm really glad to see so many people here in this thread supporting Obama's speech. Just wanted to say that. It usually seems to be a core group of us who are "sticking up" for him and everyone else is hating on him. So that's nice to know that you're out there, even though you don't always post. And that's ok. I totally understand that.
And thank you, highfreq for posting the speech! I've seen snippets, but I'm going to watch it later.
I also found it interesting that McCain sort of dissed Obama for speaking in Berlin, saying he would love to give a speech in Germany, but would prefer to do it as president rather than as a candidate.
My question is WHY? What's wrong with speaking outside the country as a candidate? McCain did it. Why, now that it's Obama doing it, it's a big deal and better to wait till he's president? What a lame diss. I'm sorry, he's sounding like a pouting, whining baby. He goaded Obama about taking a trip and when Obama does it, he's pissy about it. It's just lame. Grow up.

I think that McCain is referring to the kind of speech Obama is giving, one to a mass audience. He is probably just jealous that his campaign staff didn't have him do the same thing.
My point for starting this thread is that Obama and his campaign really have been innovative in the way the campaign has been going.

Woo-Hoo! That was funny!
Hey, the reason I decided to vote for Obama was that I was looking up the rumors that I read here - researching to find the truth - and the more I discovered about him the more I liked him.
And my support for him has just gotten stronger, the more I learn. So, it's thanks to the haters that I'm voting for him.
Why thank you.Those two people were true heroes.

Obama was selling a world government. People are best governed by themselves in small groups. That is the principle the U.S. was founded on.
First governed is the individual: You must govern your own activities, appetites and relations.
Second Group, the Family: The family must work together to care for the whole unit.
Third Group, community: This could be a town or city. The people of the group decide how it should be governed relating to taxes, zoning, education and transportation.etc.
Fourth Group -State: The state decides the norms, determined by the traditions and goals of the residents. The state can determine taxes, laws and regulate commerce.
etc
Fifth group, the Sovereign Nation: Determines citizenshp, protects God Given rights, establishes and protects borders. etc
Only a non thinking person would give up all these rights for a World Government where a small elite govern the actions of everyone, where no one has an opportunity to affect the policies.
