SKYLARK

WE ARE REAL, AND WE RECOGNIZE THE REAL THING WHEN WE SEE IT…

THE REAL DEAL IS HILLARY R. CLINTON PRESIDENT 2009-2012

SKYLARD, DON'T YOU EVER DOUBE HER SUPPORTERS, WE NEVER GIVE UP, WE ARE LOYAL AND WE INTEND TO WIN BY SEEING HER ELECTED AS OUR PRESIDENT….

YOU ARE HOWEVER, WELCOMED TO JOIN US (SMILE)

I can't believe all the Obama haters posting up lame spam here in cnn.
Go do some research before you criticize his decisions.

Go Barack!

Talk about unity. Obama is a scumbag! Hillary 08′ (If all you Obama supporters think that if he is the nominee Hillary supporters will flock to his side, you are mistaken. After the way she has been villafied by the media, Obama, his campaign and his supporters our votes will go to McCain!)

sad just sad

Fore heavens sake protect Obama, we need him to be the candidate of the leftist Democrats. Hillary will be harder to beat.

someone paid over a grad last week for a corn flake on ebay! this people are all nut jobs

Was it anyone important that wanted the picture with Obama?

All that time to argue just shows how arrogant OBama is.

I think most people are getting tired of you bloggers acting like 8 year olds.

Must be a slow news day.

I do not think these Hillaphiles are real. I think they are Rush Limbaugh zombies. Nobody could be that vicious or stupid otherwise. And in answer to one of your questions No. They didn't read it. No. They didn't watch the movie. It does no good to try to reason with morons.
Save your breath.
Obama '08

On Ebay, Obama's poster with signature is going for $500. I would be worried as well.

Hillary people are whacko. I guess that is what she attracks. Any little thing to say something bad about our next president Obama!!!!!!!!

Enough about the Hillary campaign. Where does it say anything about Hillary in the video? This is about Obama, leave at that, this from a Clinton supporter.

This guy seemed too persistent. Seems like he had ulterior motives. Good move by Obama. Anyone that persistent doesn't seem right. I didn't see any arrogance on Obama's part, just concern. In my opinion, it was a good move by Obama.

What a shock, Obama acting like a snob. NOT! Who cares what Obama does or says? And who would actually even want a picture of that guy?

I find it more frustrating that 3rd graders were around Obama, I know I wouldn't want MY 3rd grader around him!

Okay. Even I don't blame Obama on this one and he's my third or fourth choice for president at the moment. Back to the real issues.

Hillary '08

What was the big deal ! Why did Obama not take the photo? He took it with the store owners. Seems like this dude just wanted a photo!

I think this is bad news for Obama.

HRC supporters, you guys are too funny. take some prozac and chill out. see the same supporters of HRC on every blog spewing the same nonsense. get over it.

How sad. He cant give a 5 second picture. Why not? He only holds press conferences or rallys. This man just wanted a picture.I guess he is too busy to take time.

Patience is a VIRTUE…..

I'm sure both candidates have very busy days and I'm sure it can get
frustrating and annoying at times….but it takes a TOUGH person to be President…..this is nothing compared to what is coming.
Right in the middle of campaigning across the state of Texas,
Hillary took the time out of her already scheduled busy day to go to the funeral of the police officer who was killed.
THAT said a lot to me……..

I've watched some of Obama's town hall meetings, and he was quite rude to several people – he seems a bit testy to me.

Let’s see how the Obama camp spins this.

This is a slightly possible less-than-positive article about Obama – what were you thinking? I thought this was strictly forbidden by the cult!

Sounds like Obama was too nice to this photo hound.

Wow I can't believe you Obama supporters are actually defending him?! If Hillary did this you'd be all over her like white on rice. But since Saint Obama did it, he had a good excuse? You disgust me. All he had to do was take a picture. He wasn't trying to sell anything on e-bay, he was asking for a freakin picture. Since he refused the picture, there's video proof of him being a jerk.

how that guy crossed seceret service guys? Obama should be careful about his security.

Obama, babe, how's your "Chelsea" moment working for ya?

If this guy was following Barack around all morning, it doesn't say a lot for the Secret Service. This guy sounds like a stalker, and a looney.

Protect our next president, please.

Barack, bring Michelle back, we miss her. She'll be a fabulous and patriotic first lady.

Obama 08

This doesn't surprise me. I remember several instances where he got annoyed in the debates and raised his voice and said "NOW HILLARY".

I think it is great that the race is going on, so you Obama supporters will get to know exactly who you are voting for.

Watch out, you might not like what you see or hear when you finally start paying attention! I doubt if it gets covered by CNN anyway.

I think all Hillary supporters should boycott CNN and start watching FOX. It sure makes you feel better when your candidate is not the only one getting beat up on.

Hillary '08 or (McCain over Obama anyday)

Hey Obama, now you know how we feel everytime the media tries to shove you in our face! If I hear what a charismatic guy you are one more time, I'm going to puke. What really annoys me though is the fact that you are not for universal health care. My granddaughter has severe asthma attacks and is usually hospitalized at least once a year. Who do YOU think is going to insure her the minute she turns 21?Should I just quit caring about her health then? This is the real difference between the candidates. Hillary cares about our adult children and about the lives of the voters. You don't, unless they are millionaires, buy us breakfast instead of Bloomberg you jerk.

"So whats the big deal big man, you sure show a lack of leadership! One crummy picture and it is over, it not like your big ears would fit the shot!"
–HP Boston

Does the HP stand for Hopelessly Pathetic?

"Obama is showing his hateful side. Not good. We were for him at first, but now now. He lacks experience."

FOR CLINTON–Susan, MO

Susan,
You are so funny. Who do you think believes you were ever going to vote for Barack? Oh well, you can't have everything–he will be your next president. Maybe we can find a job for Hillary sharing lies, uh, stories to neighborhood kids.

Barack 08

JUST OBAMA ACTING LIKE A CHILD AGAIN!!!!!!!

THE MORE WE LET HIM GET AWAY, WITH THE MORE POMPOUS HE BECOMES!!!!!!!

HE HAS A SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT!!!!

HE IS DISHONEST ON SO MANY LEVELS!!!!!!!!

MY VOTE GOES TO HILLARY!!!!!!!!

BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTHS..LOOK AT THE VIDEO..HE TOOK PICS WITH THE STORE OWNERS AND PAID FOR HIS CHEESE…….AND IF YOU LOOK..I WILL NOT HAVE TO EXPLAIN HOW STUPID ALL YOU CLINTON FANS SOUND!!!!!!!!!!

Clinton supporters are ridiculous (see comments above).
I' sure the wasn't a Clinton supporter- but saying Obama was a snob and a jerk because he wouldn't let them take a picture is TYPICAL HILLARY'S HATE CLUB nonsense!
Everyone STOP IT!

Yeah, this is a security issue. Shame on Hillary people for trying to politicixe this and not recognizing the overwhleming importance of safety, particularly for a candidate in Obama's position (still, sadly, the reality, even 40 years post-MLK and -RFK.)

Everyone who says "WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!' need to shut up.

Are you Obama supporters crazy or something? Do you know how many people have pictures with Obama!?! Heck, I have a picture with Obama. What kind of money could you make selling a picture on e-Bay with Obama? That e-Bay story is just a dumb cover-up. Obama did not want to take a picture with the man and thats it.

YOU PEOPLE ARE CLEARLY AGAINST OBAMA! HE DOESN'T MIND TAKING PICTURES WITH PEOPLE, BUT THIS GUY WAS JUST TRYING TO MAKE A PROFIT BY SELLING IT ON EBAY! OBAMA HANDLED THE SITUATION VERY WELL WHICH IS WHY I'M PROUD TO BE A OBAMA SUPPORTER! HE DOESN'T HAVE A TEMPER…HE WAS JUST AGITATED.

I think he handled it Presidentially.

Obama '08~REAL change we can believe in.

so why does everybody and their entire family tree get pulled into a scenario when this was a confrontation between Senator Obama and a ordinary citizen. People chill out. There is no reason to blame everyone just because this may look unfavorable for Senator Obama, he's in the public eye just like every other politician has been and will continue to be for the rest of his political life. Just give the Unnecessary blame game BS a rest already. But on a positive note most supporters from both camps have been getting Increasingly civil in disputing their differences. I guess its the few negative comments that stick out the most.

Amazing. It seems that some of Clinton supporters didn't get past the headline and certainly didn't watch the video. Some of you sound desperate for something to attack Obama about. The guy was trying to make a profit off of Obama's candidacy to the extent that he was cutting in on a visit with third graders. Of course a photo op with another world leader would be different. To suggest that this somehow correlates is really immature.

Where is Obama's campaign staff? Couldn't someone have intercepted this guy, questioned him to find out if he was legitimate or not, then decided whether to recommend to Obama that he take the photo. I'm an Obama supporter, but what if it turns out this guy was trying to get a photo for his sick kid or something like that. Makes the whole campaign look mean-spirited and arrogant.

And by the way, if anyone in his right mind wants to buy Obama's signature on e-bay, well, they deserve to get ripped off. He's a candidate, for crying out loud; he's not God.

Arrogance of obama is there for all to see. He wants only power and he is using the media and others who have been dazzeled by his rhetoric to gain it. He has no substance, no solutions. He is promising everything that he could conjure with – even having Gore on his team . America do not be fooled again!!

I guess that guy wins the notorious "stalker of the year" award.

All you commenters, please read things before leaving comments. Dude stalked him all day, and was rude in front of children, if it were me, I don't care what office I was running for, I'd be cautious and strong about this situation as Obama was. That showed real human character.

Come on Barrack. you took a picture with Hillary, so you can take a picture with this wack-nut.

Can't wait to see this guy interviewed tomorrow to get the real story…..

YOU GUYS ARE ABSOLUTLEY RIDICULOUS!!!!! OBAMA WAS A SMART MAN TO DO WHAT HE DID…WHAT GAVE THAT MAN THE RIGHT TO BUTT IN FRONT OF KIDS AND CONTINUE STALKING ALL DAY TO MAKE MONEY ON EBAY….ONE MORE REASON TO VOTE FOR OBAMA..HE WILL STAND UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND BUTTING IN FRONT OF PEOPLE IS RUDE UNLESS ALL YOU THAT THINK NOT, OF COURSE, WOULD BE BUTTING IN ,TO MAKE MONEY…… HE IS NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING JUST TO PLEASE PEOPLE AND GET A VOTE LIKE CLINTON…WHAT A PHONY SHE IS!!!!
HMMMMMM..WONDER WHAT SOME OF YOU WOULD SAY IF THEY BUTTED IN FRONT OF YOUR KID!!!!!!! OH I KNOW….YOU WOULD SAY..GO RIGHT AHEAD…TEACH THE CHILDREN THAT IT IS A-OK……..GEESH…WHAT IDIOTS!!!!

If and when you see the photo on ebay, see if the eyes are red and horns are protruding from the forehead.

Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow you Clintonazis are tough! For now on Obama should take a picture with anyone who wants one…as long as Hillary can release her tax returns, release the library donor list, answer why she lied about the "sniper fire" and can get her daughter to answer questions about her cheating dad and enabling mom!

One day you Clintonazis will realize that we are really saving you from yourselfs! Vote Obama, the best candidate!

This guy is a nut case. He was so rude and invasive. Why could he not be more polite and ask if he would take a picture. Too bad the secret service did not punch him in the mouth.

Typical Mets Fan!

Hmmm. If Obama granted a 2-second request for this man it would NOT be news, like apparently it is now. Being a presidential candidate means being PUBLIC…just ask Hillary.

I think that's exactly where he likes to be…in the spotlight, whether for good or bad.

Weak on issues? Who cares. This is American Idol revisited.

All of you who are criticizing Obama, Did you watch the video? If you did, then your comments do not make sense. This guy is not a "regular guy". Obama took pictures with "regular" people like the cheese guys on the video. This guy is an Ebay seller and he was rude and interrupted Obama as he was talking with children.

In fact, Obama did let him take a picture, just without him smiling. Get over your negativity people. You sound more like Hillary than regular Americans.

Thank you. How can a guy like that get so close to Obama!!! This guy was definitely aggressive with his actions.

I read this CNN site everyday. I must say that I am truley amazed by the ignorance of so many of my fellow Americans. Some of the comments are so juvenile and small. Our country is facing one of the most critical times in its history and all we can talk about is pettiness. Our country is in a recession, The War is worst now than when it started 5 years ago. So many Americans are homeless due to the "Sub Prime" mortgage industry's Frankenstein of a creation. We all have the right to our opinions but at least use your own intelligence to make an informed decision about life and what the future holds for us all. We have become a society of self indulgent, lazy followers. We have been so brainwashed by "FEAR" that we can no longer make our own choices. Choices based on true facts and character. What happened to standing up for truth and honor? Instead its greed, everyman for himself at any cost and step on whom ever it takes to get you to the top. No wonder other countries despise "Americans" "WAKE UP PEOPLE" This country has fallen apart. Its time to change that by having the backbone to do so." WE WILL ALL REAP WHAT WE SOW!!!! What would you want that to be for you and yours??????

Hey Sharon, do you know how stupid you sound? I am not talking as an Obama supporter here, but I am talking as someone who knows history and has seen what something as simple as this can do. This is a presidential candidate! and American presidential candidate! all jokes, biases and support aside, you should know better than what you said.
Thank you Obama for refusing, because who knows what was in that camera? or in the heart of the man? My thanks also go to you secret service and everyone else insuring the security of our leaders, whether Obama, Clinton or McCain. It doesn't matter the differences we have, they are still our dear leaders and we should do everything in our powers to pray for them, protect and love them, because even the Bible says so.

GO OBAMA!

Wow! He thinks he is really JFK??
Come on! Who cares you? Obama??

You are just a "typical" "guy"!

If you can't take the heat, stay out of the oven.

I watched the video and Berry is just being the righteous man he is. He did'nt want his picture taken, he said no, oh then he said go ahead.The guy wore him out. Poor boy did'nt have anyone to tell the guy no he had to do it himself. Lets send him on another vacation. Poor boy. He is so wore out..

This just what kind of person Obama is. A real humanitarian.
Takes his his children to a Church that he didn't hear, to he did hear, to If Wright didn't retire he would of left. [ this took 20 YRS] to decide. Great Parenting
His wife finally Being Proud to be an American
Now Obama LIES about his Farther
This is person you Obama suporters are proud of He LIED about his Father. not about ducking bullets.
YOU CAN KEEP HIM but to me he has some real issues. This all present day events. not crap that happened 10yrs ago.
SMARTIN UP HE'S GOT YOUTHINKING HE MIGHT BE GOD AND YOU SHOULD FORGIVE THIS.
He's lying just like all Politicians

That was the right move to make for Obama. Who is this man anyway?! That's all Obama need to be taking a picture with someone with troubling issues & the picture to surface next week & the press having a field day.

WAKE UP EOPLE This country has fallen apart. Its time to change that by having a BACKBONE and making you choices based on whats right not out of FEAR, Remember "WE WILL ALL REAP WHAT WE SOW"

Who gives a who? Horton?
Why are we spending time worrying about whether these politicians smile for a camera or not? This is ridiculous…go down the street and find some real news to talk about…geez!

People should actually watch the footage, Obama was nice to the guy, the guy was like throwing kids out of the way to get to Obama.

It was really mean…and he even tried to put up a fight with the Secrete Service who pulled him away.

How many of you Hillary supporters would still vote for her if her last wasn't Clinton and she wasn't a female?

I would not have thought Hillary as a snob or unfit to be President if she had denied the picture.

Hillary supporters need to look at the real video before making that judgment call.

I know they are hurt and frustrated..but why do they sound so stupid lately.

You guys are ridiculous, taking his reaction to this idiot as anything political whatsoever.

"AHHH we can't have a president who acts that rude to a papparazzi guy! WHAT IF A WORLD LEADER TRIES TO TAKE A PICTURE OF HIM?! We're doomed!"

Get a clue!

The secret Service should have slapped the guy silly for jumping in front of those kids and took his camera and broke it across his head. That what I THINK!!!!!!!

Wow….every time i see this man I like him less and less.

Go Hillary. Or McCain….ANYONE BUT OBAMA!!!!!

Obama put his foot down and said no to what sounds like a really rude jerk. I would never INSIST on getting a picture, with ANYBODY. And some of you people actually think this incident somehow reflects badly on Obama? You actually think that the fact that Obama said no to this very rude and persistent guy is somehow a reason to vote for somebody else? Is that really the kind of thing that determines your vote?

You can't be serious.

I don't get it Obama signs thousands of autographs a day, and has shook hands with millions of people across the US and he wouldn't take a picture with this guy.

I love how people say Obama shows his ego here. If any one of them were in the same position they would have reacted even worse. I hate rude people and this guy was obviously going over the edge. If you are a jerk then vote for Hillary, you'll fit right in with her group.

Typical snob

What temper?? Obama didn't yell shame shame with spittle coming out of his mouth.
TThat the guy got that close is scary. But the most revealing thing is the fact that Clinton supporters would think that not wanting to have your picture takein with a creep means your not ready for the WH.

It simply reveals how ignorant they are.

If you say that Obama has a "temper" because of this, you are silly. Obama was way more polite than any of us would have been and the guy should have taken 'no' for an answer. He's lucky that the Secret Service didn't knock him down.

The guy was acting crazy. The secret service should have intervened earlier. They are endangering Obama with these kind of people.

All you have to do is read this board to find out why Obama supporters are the reason I will never vote for him.

I also just watched the footage, and you can clearly see that he got the photo… the headline is totally misleading, Obama was firm but good natured about the entire non-event.

All You Obama haters need to take a 2nd look at your gurl hillary, she is not soo truthful and those who vote for her are ignorant people, they haven't done their homework. Obama did right, the guy is truly lucky that they didn't rough him up, steadily bugging. First if he'd only waited until Obama was finished with the children, then he probably would of taken the picture, but that guy seemed a bit weird…like to obessed about that picture.

The heckler is unconscious – Obama has every right to say no to anything he wishes. We create our own reality. Why should anyone say yes in agreement to someone who disturbs the positive energy flow Obama exudes, for the common good of all. I respect Obama's no!

The Secret Service should have stopped this the very first time. Senator Obama was smart to say no. I'll be emailing others about this issue.

Who do you think is behind all of this to make Senator Obama look bad before the April 22 primary?

LET'S SEE (GET THE PICTURE)?

I'm with kab. Who knows what this guy could have done! Being so disruptive, he never should have been allowed to get so close.

Those who think Obama was not acting appropriately failed to get past the title, let alone view the video. He obviously was being treated rudly by an unstable man. Personally, I would chew out my bodyguards later for not doing there job. They should never let such a clearly unstable person near the next president.

I though you were a man of the people Mr. Obama. Bowling, eating hot dogs, drinking bud. Such a BIG fake! Wake up America!! Remember what happened the last time we voted for an empty suit!!

I'm surprised the SS let the guy stand as close to, even touching, Obama as long as they did. If that guy had been a crazy person with a knife, it could have been Shanksville for the candidate.

Obama is so rude.

This dude and his buddies went in front of a bunch of kids trying to get their ebay photo. I don't think he was a Hillary supporter, just a greedy person

I'm sorry, there's no reasonable, intelligent way to spin this against Obama. Watch the video. This man was being extremely rude and pushy. It hardly calls for, "ooh, hope no world leaders want a picture taken with him." Yes–Gordon Brown, annoying e-Bay stalker, po-tay-to, po-tah-to. Spare me. Good for him for keeping his cool with the guy as much as he did. And, uh, nice job, Secret Service. Yikes.

Crimany! He can't take a picture with everybody, least of all stalking weirdos out to reap personal gain.

Obama's reaction is certainly far less rude than Chelsea's repeated "NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!!" comebacks of late.

GASP! The guy is pompous? NO! I wouldnt have believed it after seeing him run for POTUS with hardly any experience, change in Congress, policies created and coalitions built. Wow newsbreak.

BO's arrogance is OUTRAGEOUS!!!! Quote "Brother..you are working my last nerve"…..so presidential…….WHat a joke for a candidate for president. BO GO HOME!!!!

This is not news we want to hear. Stalkers can be dangerous.
Great job, Secret Service

Obama, if little things like this set you off, how are you expected to handle the problems of the country? You are a political puppet!

So, none of you have ever been annoyed by or cross with someone in public that you felt was not respecting your privacy or making unfair demands?

Obama is human, just like the rest of us, and has to deal an amount of pressure and intrusion that is tremendous. Cut him some slack.

you didn't think that you were rude in this comment:

FNJ in PA April 2nd, 2008 4:58 pm ET

HILLARY supporters are the strangest, and
rudest people EVER.

I don't think Obama would be a good leader of our country but the man does have the right to get annoyed by someone who crosses the line infront of 3rd graders.

How the campgain figured that the pictures will go on ebay is beyond me. Also, would anyone pay for such a picture? WHY?

Found out that he wants the picture to sell on E-Bay. I would be pissed off too if I was Obama. And for Chris from San Antonio, Hillary wouldn't even give you a dollar if she had the chance. Your right though, she would with Rezko. Anybody that has more money then her.

The Nutzarazzi wanted a picture with who may be the futur prez of the USA…
Why ? Check out what a Barack Obama autograph is worth on EBAY

As a matter of fact : check out other interesting Obama offerings on EBAY

See for yourself what kind of freak the 'just an average joe who wanted a picture' really is…

To Mike

thanks for your Comment its nice to see a Hillary supporter that can read this story with a non biased open mind Hillary needs more supporters like you

Even if the guy did want to sell it on E bay, how would Obama know that at the time? Maybe the guy was pushy, but I can't believe this was the first pushy person he has run up against in the campaign, he probably just thought this guy's vote wouldn't matter . I listened to the video, he came off dismissive. Why didn't he just take the picture and move on. And what was with the calling him "brother" in the video? I think this was just a little of his real character peaking though as he probably is tired of having to put his false face on all of the time when cameras are rolling. Probably good for remaining voters to see him on an occasional bad day though so they know he isn't perfect afterall.

I don't blame him. With the size of Senator Obama's crowds, there's
always at least one kook that has to be monitored.

Mike….Although you are a Hillary supporter, thanks for the nice explanation as to why Obama is testy with this guy. It is noce to see that aome Clinton supporters are not just Haters. Just as I think asking Chelsea about Monica is wrong, we can agree on what is right or wrong and still support our candidate. Kudos to you, Mike!

He is showing his true face, does it surprise anyone ? This guy thinks he is going to be crowned and is beginning to act like royalty, by not allowing one of his fawning followers to be photographed with his Majesty, Obama the first, King of America.!

Yes Hillary will even take a photo with Rev. Wright.

IF IT HELPED HER ALONG THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE!!!!!

Why was this nut case allowed to cut in in front of Children?. It really is a little bit scarey that he was allowed to get so close to Sen. Obama.
I know this is a get to know me kind of campaign. But this man was so persistent!! Why did the security let him continue?

Very silly story to put on website. It is scary how close this person came to Senator Obama. Rudeness should not be rewarded.

Susan MO,
"Obama is showing his hateful side. Not good. We were for him at first, but now now. He lacks experience. "

Well Susan if you make your decisions on who your going to vote for president based off the "Experience" of dealing with pushy photographers….then go write in Britney '08 …. this is the most ridiculous and not news worthy story I've seen in a while……

Obaaaammmmaa, gettin' angry…….

GO HILLARY!!!! Anyone see the NEW Quinnepiac POLLS…..No story from the media?????
HILLARY BEATS McCAIN NATIONALLY IN FLORIDA, PENNSYLVANIA AND OHIO!!!!!!!!!!!!! By GOOD amounts!!!!! McCAIN BEATS BO IN FL!!!!!!!!!
WHOO HOO!!!

To Chris from San antonio and all you billary supporters. Billary will do anything even sell herself for the presidency. Barak did nothing wrong refusing to sell out to an opportunist, like the republicans and billary.

A Mug Shot, of a Mug!! No way…

Obama… Mr SMUG……..

I love the comments from the Hillary supporters here. Obama, like Hillary and McCain and, to a bit of a lesser extent, any major politician, literally does stuff all day. It's probably pretty exhausting to say the least and the guy was butting in front of kids and kept demanding a photo even after being told nicely "no."

If I went up to any of you and asked you to do something repeatedly even after you said no and kept following you around asking wouldn't you get a little annoyed? You say you would? Oh dear, that's quite the rock star egotistical whining attitude you've got there, sheesh!

I mean, can you imagine voting for a guy who works all day and gets annoyed when people follow him around and make demands of him half a dozen times or more? What nerve! Obviously someone without the patience of a saint can't ever be a good president, he's lost my vote.

The made-up EBAY story by the rude OBAMA campaign just doesn't cut it. Do you really think that some guy's photo with Obama is going to sell on EBAY (what ego Obama has). So much for being polite and respectful to the voters. Even if this man was an autograph-for-sale seeker, shouldn't Obama be glad to help a fellow American make some money in this bad economy? How much money was this guy going to make from a couple of Obama signatures anyway? I wouldn't give 2 cents for one!

Senator Obama is simply wonderful and would never be rude to anyone unless he had a good reason. The person interfered with his ability to speak to children. Obama would not like that.

Vote Obama

This weirdo needed to understand that no means no. … and why Obama's bodyguards did not react faster to remove him. You may need new body guards Mr. President and I am fully at your service – for free.

Funny how som folks wanna make this a knock on Obama's Character (grasping straws). This guy was pretty much a jerk, you do not have to be like that to get a picture, remember the golden rule. I would have rejected him as well.

You should go read the emails from the fight Obama and McCain had after McCain tried to reach out to him. I was a bit taken aback by Obama's arrogance and temper. He does seem to hide it from the public better most of the time tho……

Obama's supporters are ridiculous (see comments above). How is this guy that wants a picture a Hillary supporter and how is your comment relevant to this article? It's this type of illogic that is going to get him elected…. He has a clean record because he hasn't done anything. Wow good like to us all.

I think it is a problem of the guy who wanted this. Not a big deal. and common everywhere

I see Obama's ego and star attitude showing for the first time. Better be careful Barack or else people might see the real you. Not very Presidential.

to fnj

You don't really expect Hillary's supporters to act any differently than she does do you? Amazing how blind they are. If she is elected they won't mean a thing to her. The media hype on this little stuff gets annoying too.

"Don't taze me bro!"

HOW DOES ANYONE KNOW THE MAN WANTED TO SELL THE PICTURE ON EBAY?????????? DID HE TELL OBAMA THATS WHY HE WANTED THE PICTURE?????????? MAYBE WE SHOULD HEAR FROM THE MAN HIMSELF…JUST LIKE THE QUESTIONS POSED TO CHELSE….THE YOUNG MAN MADE ALL THE ROUNDS ON THE TV SHOWS…LETS HEAR FROM THE MAN WHO WANTED THE PICTURE……….. I BET HE HAD NO INTENTION OF SELLING THE PICTURE ON E BAY…………….THAT WAS JUST A STORY TO GET AWAY FROM THE REAL TRUTH………….

Soon we'll hear a report from Hillary about the time she was chased by a sniper who just wanted to take her picture. She'll tell us how she bravely stood and let the sniper take her picture, even though she knew she was in danger.

Now that he has a comfortable position with the news media, he seems to be able to get away with whatever he does, he is the little brat of the press. I can't wait to hear what they are going to say in the news tonight Bravo Baba, I think this man was bothering you, poor baby you must have been tired.

give me a break… they posted the dialog… he did not want a signature… wanted a picture for his family…

what are these blogs about Ebay… spin by Obama's camp to play down the situation… you got to be kidding me!!!

Really makes me want to donate money to this man…

most likely he would not take a picture with me…

How does the Obama camp know he was going to sell it on Ebay? Nowhere is the conversation does it say that. He probably was going to sell it, but don't jump to conclusions. Isn't that the message that Obama is trying to sell? To give people a chance?

Someone needs to interview the guy….SELLING on EBAY? Are you SURE???? Or is that just Obama's excuse???????

How would this be twisted if it were Hillary. The haters would be all over this. I don't care, did the guy tell him it was for Ebay? I guess he was afraid he might be just show up as ghost, like his plans.

WoW HP Boston..what a real nice thing to say…Oh that's right, God made you perfect…Thanks for sharing…NOT!!!!

what kind of drugs were the democratic party doing when they created this delegate system for their primaries. clinton has won the popular vote in 3 states, including texas and has gotten less delegates then obama. and they are even going to count florida and michigan. evidently the democratic party has a little problem knowing a democracy is. guess well have to vote for a republican after all, even if we have had the worse 8 years of ouf lives. at least all of their votes counted.

It's ironic that Clinton supporters accuse Obama of whining.

Waahhh I always get the 1st question!
Waaahh everyone is out to get me because I'm a woman!
Waaahh Obama is trying to make me quit!
(actually, Hillary, he told you to stay in)
Waaahh this man is sexist because he disagreed with me!
Waaahh! WAAAHHH!

Keep crying, Queen Clinton. America sees it.

It is only a reflection of our differences as people. Some try to take advantage of situations to enrich themselves while trampling on others. That is life and Obama should see it for ehat it is One Nation under God. If we all did things right, there won't be a need for leadership and with the Bush economy I am not surprised people are deparate to cash in.

For everyone in here who says he should just take the picture, our showing is rockstar status is a fool. Anyone who pushes kids out of the way deserves no pictures. Case done. If thats your kids getting pushed over on the ground are you going to say just take the picture?? I hope not for you kids sake. Wake up people.

Sounds like a Clinton spy trying to cook-up something. The public can be sure that we will hear something about this subject in a negative manner. Obama supporters, we have not heard the last of this story, it will be on every news station for at least a week and it will be talked about in the next Clinton speech just like the bowling.

WOW! some people can be so rude. And i have a feeling that they are going to blow this out of proportion. Obama should've walked away and pretended like he didn't hear him asking for a pic.

well well WELL mr. obamana- are we slightly on edge these days? he probably just heard that florida's delegates will indeed be seated, as reported by howard dean. imagine if michigan follows suit.. yikes! and hillary is estimated to carry pennsylvania, yet another on the long list of huge KEY states. boo hoo.

okay, obama, NOW we see why you're a little cranky. just watch one of your "hope" speeches on youtube.. that'll cheer you up. just remember that you can hope in one hand and cr- well, nevermind.

go hillary go

Of course he was quit happy to take the picture eith the store owners……Hmmmmm….I guess that was a good P.R. photo, but not the husband of a TEACHER?????? WOW….

Honestly?! Isn't the Secret Service authorized to shoot these people?

Boy a picture with Obama. What a treat. HILLARY 08

Sorry CNN she is still in the race.

We love Obama, we love Obama , we love Obama…. cant wait to see this great man in the White House.

Is everybody pissed at Tiger Woods now too because he will only (and rarely) do autographs for or make eye contact with kids?

This guy sounds really obnoxious – you just DO NOT cut in front of third graders, people.

Those who have written on here to say Obama was rude, needs a reality check. Some of the comments sounds like you are in a world under a rock. Who is their right mind would want to take a picture with a rude idiot. As far as I am concern, the secret service allowed him to get too close to Obama.

You Obama haters, would you take a picture with an idiot who was following you around all day? Ooops, I hear silence.!! I guess not huh?

Walk up to any busy person and insist on taking a picture with them. Many will say yes, but many will decline. Then, if you insist again, they may decline a little more forcibly. And when you keep at it, they get annoyed, and may perhaps acquiesce so you'll go away.

In other words, Obama acted like any normal, well adjusted person would.

Obama the man was hillary with out make up and feck beard. Stay away from her, she is very contigious.

Secret service should have beat that fool down. He could have had a shank.

secret service or front street slackers …where is the protection

I couldn't imagine someone that close and aggresive to take a picture with Obama. I would be relutlant also, not knowing what is going to happen. Obama you are brave and remember there is a lot of people that is crazy right about now. Don't trust anyone who comes to you like that again.

Those pesky citizens who want a picture….just annoying brothers! Well Obama did give that pesky citizen the right to speak though, huh? LOL. Barak is wearing me out!

Slow news day, huh?

You people that continuously refer to Hillary Clinton as "Billary" sound so incredibly juvenile. It doesn't matter which candidate you're referring to, just use their name and quit trying to be so cutesy.
In other words– grow up and act like an adult.

WOO TO THE NEW POLLS IN THE PA POLLS.
1 HAS OBAMA UP 2
2 DOWN 9
EITHER WAY BYE BYE HILLARY

Protect that Obamaman, Secret Service!!!!!!!! We need him.!!!!!!!!!!!

100% for Obama from Day 1.
Retired Professional white woman for OBAMA

You can go to Drudge and get more details and read exactly what Obama said. It wasn't cool for the guy to cut in front of the little kids. Obama actually finally told the guy that he would take the picture, but the Secret Service stepped in at that point.

Obviously he can't take a picture with everyone. To crazily insistent people demanding a picture, in the words of Bill Clinton, "Chill out."

Yawnnnnn ! that was interresting.

Please Gawd ! Forward time to the next primary. Reporters are starting to roll on the floor for crumbs.

Hillary would have taken a picture with him…..
Why? because SHE REALLY CARES ABOUT PEOPLE!!!!!!

I dont blame Obama especially as rude as that guy was. Especially if his wife is a teacher and for him to be arguing when Obama was speaking with children, the gentleman should KNOW better. I hope people take notice as Obama was going to let the guy get the picture but it was the secret service that stopped that from happening.. Good for them!

Obama 08

I know someone who had the same experience with obama at an event in Spencer, Iowa at which Obama refused to pose for a photo….saying just take one but i don't have time to pose….apperently he's too good to pose with voters.

Good for Obama. These Ebay guys are cheapskates. They forge signatures of celebrities/candidates to sell on E-Bay, and for authentication they take a picture with the celebrity/candidate. Sounds almost like what stars go through on a day to day basis with the paparazzi. They take pictures and sell them to the magazines. I'm glad Obama brushed this jerk off.

Go ahead Smart Mouths….keep disenfranchising the voters for Hillary…see how close Obama gets to the White House!

DEMOCRATS FOR MCCAIN!

I hope people will give Obama a break on this one. The guy was a pest and was likely just trying to get a photo with him to make money selling forged Obama signatures on Ebay.

Check the politico.com story – it's a bit more meaty than our standard CNN fluff bits.

Why is this news? Why aren't you talking about the endorsement from Lee Hamilton of the 9/11 Commission? Or about how Obama actually won Texas!

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT 08

Obama is going to win Pennsylvania. Hillary will never quit.
Hillary likes spending campaign money too much. But owes
Insurance Premium for her campaign staff of over $2,000.00

Obama 2008 or no one. I won't vote for another liar.

Slow news day again, apparently…

I don't like Barack, but I don't blame him for getting annoyed. I would have probably socked the Ebay guy in the kisser.

Hillary '08

At least the Obama camp is getting better at reacting to stories like this. They were out in front of it early with their reasoning. Rather than let people think that Barack was just being mean they've come out with their version of events. They used to be quite slow at this and it's gotten them into trouble in the past. It's nice to see that they are learning to control the narrative better.

The bottom line is that this guy wasn't some concerned voter, he was an opportunist. You don't cut in front of 3rd graders… didn't you learn that in 3rd grade?

Obama 2008 and 2012

Bye, Billary … it's wasn't so nice knowing ya.

I wonder what he was selling on EBAY… signed copies of Obama's book? If you haven't read it you should… interesting stuff in there!

Can we have a man that refuses to take a picture with a persistently rude man as President??

Vote Hillary. She'll take a picture with anybody. Even Rezko.

Temper Temper!!!!

This interaction between a citizen and Obama shows Obama's rock star attitude. Obama's ego is full blown and out of control.

Hillary 08

HILLARY supporters are the strangest, and
rudest people EVER.

Where is the vaunted Secret Services when you need one to deal with a unmannerly, rude, crude and boorish STALKER and sicko or psycho!

When does 'no' means no for a psycho?

I have seen major sports stars refuse to pose and sign articles when they suspect it is an opportunist at work—(those looking to profit from an autograph and dated picture)

Obama '08

I wonder if fox news can spin this into a racial confrontation.

Ohhhh. This just made my day. Sounds like pretty boy has a temper too. Maybe he could be McCain's veep, they should get along just fine.

Two words: Weird and scary

So Obama supporters always say this is the doing of the Hillary campaign? What about the hecklers that go after Bill when he's campaigning for Hillary? What about the hecklers that go after Hillary when she's campaigning. What about the guy in NC who wouldn't let the lewinsky thing drop because he wanted to bring that up? Was all that Obama's campaign's doing? If people think this is Hillary's doing, then all those were Obama's doing and he should be really ashamed of himself.

wow, is this news???

So whats the big deal big man, you sure show a lack of leadership! One crummy picture and it is over, it not like your big ears would fit the shot!

There are "Delux-Nutts" all over the world. Thank God for Secret Service Men.

This site is very biased. If you just read the headline you get a very negative image of Mr. Obama when it appears he had good reason to say no.

That is the problem with these persistent photobugs for whatever reason. I can understand Obama's frustration as I have a relative who is famous and it can get tiring. You just have to be nice and let them have it otherwise they will hound you to death.

Hillary 08

Obama is showing his hateful side. Not good. We were for him at first, but now now. He lacks experience.

FOR CLINTON

A picture to sell on ebay???? He even cut infront of kids while Obama was taking to them to get a picture and why was the guy following him all morning? He's opening remarks on the conversation were indeed rude. If I were Obama I wouldn't take the picture with him either.

I saw the footage and Obama was pretty cool about the situation. The guy did not seem genuine and a little strange. Obama said go a head and take the picture. The guys friend looked like he did get the picture. We'll see it on Ebay soon.

Ok….this is news because?????

Great attitude for a PEOPLE'S CHOICE, maybe Obama feels to superior to take a photo with a regular guy.

Why should he agree to pose for someone who only wants to sell it on Ebay!

Please get a life and please report the story accurately………….

If Senator Obama refuses to smile, less money for the seller. Next time tell the person "NO" and keep walking.

Wow, cnn, you did something not pro-Obama. I'm shocked and how long will it be until you change the title?

We all know Obama is no saint.

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!

HILLARY 08

can't stand paparazzi! GET A REAL JOB PUNK!

Is this really news? Who cares.

Obama is a SNOB!

Ouch! This sounds irritating…what sort of a pest was that man.
Why would he go before the kids? I hope he is not a Clinton agent trying to create news.

Take the stupid photo for crying out loud. All Obama does is whine. Guess it's time for another vacation.

I hope this gets played a lot on Philly.

This guy was a real nut head.

Stalker comes to mind…I don't know how the candidates stand it.

What a darn shame to be so rude, I would have not taken a picture with him either.

Who cares! Like this is news? Next you will be following Obama into the bathroom to see if he uses paper or the air dryer on his hands. This is just getting too silly. April first is over, get some hard news guys!!!!

Remember Bob Kennedy.

Obama be careful…anything can happen.

How could such a jerk even reach so close to Obama?

I am happy that Obama is alive today.

A picture to sell on ebay???? You even cut infront of kidswhile Obama was taking to them to get a picture and why is he insisting. he is indeed rude.

BOY, Hope no world leaders try to get a photo of him…..this man wants to be presidents and a photographer ticks him off that easy? Hmmmmm…

HRC: I'm not quitting! I am in this for the long haul because the people deserve a choice – they deserve a president who's ready on DAY 1.
OBAMA: Give it a rest Hillary then continue Swearing Ceremonies
Obama 08

sounds like a Billary supporter……….mmm dont trust anyone from the billary clinton camp
