Way to go, Mr. President Obama. I salute you and I say "AYEKOO" (meaning: weldone). I am a Ghanaian and I am very proud of all American today. You have proven that colour is nothing but identity. Just loving this nonination. Now do the right thing and pick Hilary as your running mate.

She is what I call SANTROFII ANOMAA. (Meaning: You cannot put her on your ticket and as well you can't afford not to put her on your ticket).

Remember to listen to your instincts though. It's your call, you make it, very wisely.

Full speed to the White House.
Obama 08.

The door has been kicked in for all Americans to reach the top. What a Great Place to live.
Obama08

I have yet to see obama salute our flag or pleage allegeince to our flag,untill i see it i will be for mccain

Obama is a wonderful man! Anybody who has an open mind, who is spiritually aware knows he is our calling to be President of the United States. Richardson is also another calling who should be the Vice President! There is no way Hillary should be on the ticket. All Clinton supporters are just mad now but time will heal and they will change their minds and help strengthen the popular vote again against McCain. If you choose to switch sides CLINTON supporters it shows what ignorance you are. We are winning whether it was hillary or is OBAMA. The democratic race cannot divide. Grow up and stand by OBAMA!!

OBAMA/Richardson- 2008!!

Congratulation president Obama!We've done it. We did it. I will keep on working on your team until you get in the white house..

He'll say anything to get elected.

Congratulations, Senator. You ran a perfect campaign and built a hope and excitement for the future in this country that has not been seen in decades. WE NEED YOU and we are lucky that you are willing to serve.

GO OBAMA!

DONT COUNT MCCAIN OUT.. REPUBLICANS HAVE MORE MONEY
AND CLOUT THAN YOU THINK. ISRAEL LOBBY IS A POWER TO BE RECKONED WITH. AND jIMMY CARTER'S HAMAS CONTACT AND OBAMA'S IRAN STANCE ARE BIG STUBLING BLOCKS FOR OBAMA.
ADD THOSE WITH OBAMA DENYING HILLARY THE VP SPOT AFTER HILLARY DECLARED HER WILLINGNESS TO BE NUMBER TWO AS VP TO OBAMA.....IS LIKE A BIG SLAP ON THE FACE ON HILLARY
FROM OBAMA. . THAT WILL REVERERATE TO THE MILLIONS OF AMERICANS , 18 MILLION OF THEM WHO SUPPORTED HILLARY CLINTON. THINK ABOUT THAT OBAMA SUPPORTERS...WHO MAYBE SO ARROGANT AS TO THINK OBAMA CAN WIN WITHOUT HILLARY CLINTON ON OBAMA'S SIDE.

Sprit of America...........Was/is one of those persons who knocked barriers Rev. Jeremiah Wright ....No Jon Hagee

All the way to the White House!

President Obama, Congratulations!

"his rival for the Democratic nomination who has not admitted defeat."

Why is that fear monger, warmonger and narcissist Hillary still a "rival", CNN? You just can't let go of your favorite candidate? If you keep up this antique, your rating will slip big time...I wouldn't be surprised if good number of your viewers hadn't already switched to MSNBC. I used to be a loyal CNN viewer. But after seeing John Roberts, John king, Wolf Blitzer and Gloria Borger and other Clinton trolls pandering to Hillary, my viewing habits had completely changed. I find myself going to MSNBC a lot these days. The only thing that brings me to CNN is CNN.com.

I don't think I speak for myself only when I say I will never cast a vote for Obama. I cannot believe his supporters are still being nasty and smart mouthed toward Hillary. Obama was "put in" by the DNC heavies and the media. It had nothing to do with any skills on his part. All of us Hillary supporters have to swallow the fact that Hillary lost because of the abandonment of her party, and not to mention race. How could anyone Hillary supporter unit with him when his supporters will not even to this day shut their mouths. I will either write in Hillary's name, or stay home, or might even cast a vote for McCain. You will not hold us hostage with threats of what will happen if we vote for McCain because there is more of a threat if we vote for Obama. He knows nothing and is a shady person who cannot be trusted. How could the DNC shove her aside. I hope they go down the toilet. I will not and do not believe for a moment that Hillary supporters will go his way or rub elbows with him – CNN you cannot manipulate us that way. It is sad when the DNC and media pick the choice for President and not the people. Stop playing your mind games, you won ok. But now WE have the power to stop him in November – GO FOR IT HILLARY SUPPORTERS.

I won't be surprised to wake up one day and find out that the Clintons had Obama killed. Honestley, I'm black. And I can't imagine any white person following behind me.

If its so humbling....why is he still so arrogant??????

Congratulations and may God Bless you and your family.

We are proud to have you and your family as America's First Family! You have a beautiful and wonderful family. So, Welcome to the White House and do bring a dog for the girls:-)

What a Joyous Day that Will Be!!

Why is CNN not updating Delegate counter

Experience? Both Abraham Lincoln and Bobbie Kennedy had less elective experience than Barack Obama when they ran for the Presidency.
John McCain's experience in the service evokes our gratitude for his service. However, there is little involved in being a pilot, or a Prisoner of War that in themselves, prepare you to be President of the United States. Nor does simply being a Senator somehow prepare you to be President.
For me, Obama's judgment in speaking out against going to war with Iraq, at a time when the patriotism flame burned high in this country, was a risk because at the time he spoke out against the war, people were inclined to support what appeared to be the patriotic support of our troops. It took courage, wisdom, and judgment which resonates with me as I think about having a President with that kind of independent wisdom.

YOU GO BOY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Obama can be proud of the way he ran his campaign. He is a humble, kind, strong and intelligent human being. GO ALL THE WAY OBAMA! GODSPEED!!!

If he runs the country half as effectively as he ran his campaign, the US.A. will shine again and LEAD the world.

Enjoy your few months of glory November will be a different story !

McCain '08

History in the making, the whold world is watching and we are so very so proud of this humble smart amazing Nominee Obama-
thank you ,

the whole world has welcomed this and it is incredible, the whole world is cheering.. we all want change, peace and a better future
the world and we all know he will bring that no matter how hard the clintons make it for him,

YES WE CAN !!!!
YES WE CAN !!!!
YES WE CAN !!!!
YES WE CAN !!!!
YES WE CAN !!!!
YES WE CAN !!!!
YES WE CAN !!!!
YES WE CAN !!!!
YES WE CAN !!!!YES WE CAN !!!!YES WE CAN !!!!

My man Barack...I am so proud and excited. To me he is a mixture of Abraham Lincoln, JFK and MLK. I pray to God that the USA has the good fortune to be blessed with such a man as its leader. Go, Barack , go!!!!!!!!!

PS: Thank you to Hillary Clinton for putting him through the fire. This will help him against McCain.

What a speech! What a speech! Bring on the debates! Take some lessons McCain. You better be ready!!.

Never a doubt – since I saw him speak at the last Democratic Convention – I knew then. I hope all the naysayers will open their minds and their hearts and give this fair and decent man a chance. We will all benefit. I was a kid when JFK was President and I am thrilled to see Sen. Obama with this opportunity while I am still young enough to do my part.

Thank you Sen. Obama for staying true to your mission. I am proud to say I was a volunteer for you in the Philadelphia area and will continue to be as we approach the White House. You got this far without any help from the Clintons. Please keep it that way.

CEP

Enjoy your self nomination as long as you can; you will not be elected President...

Congratulations America You have chosen well!( The world was whatching and breathed a sigh of relief to see true change coming to the good old U.S.A.)

I, honestly, don't care who his VP is. I'm still voting for him. PERIOD!! After hearing his speech in front of the AIPAC. All my doubts are gone.

Obama/ Whoever '08

So.... if race is not an issue why is it that he is the "first African-American......" blah, blah, blah, I think the dems were afraid if he did not get the nomination that he would whine about it being a race issue.

I always hoped my children would grow up to see an African-American president. Fortunately, they may get to do it 20 years earlier than I expected. Congratulations Senator Obama! You truly demonstrate that if you live in America and are willing to work hard, anything is possible.

Obama deserves it. As for his running mate, it should not be Hillary Clinton.

Hillary's prolonged fight for the position of president has given her the image for leadership. Thus, she will not fit for a position of vice president. On top of that, with Bill Clinton in the shadow, there will be too many cooks in the kitchen.

Bring on the drums! The beat goes on and on and on and on and on and onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

He should be humbled, since his career consists of doing nothing! He is the Paris Hilton of politicians!

I was very happy to hear that Obama remembers that he has arrived where he is because of his ancestors who helped to paved the way. It shows that he has an understanding of his history and roots. He is a humble person that God has selected to lead our country. I think that he is the only person that could have beat Hiliary in securing the democratic nomination. My prayer is that his personal security is good for I believe that there are evil forces conspiring to bring him down. God Bless America.

Barack Obama IS a humble man! He learned what "respect" and "family values" are as a small child, who was raised by a single mom!! No contrast between he and HRC!! Hillary Clinton had two parents who had "financial security" when she was a small child. And now, look at how selfish and self-serving she is????? Barack Obama has values!! HE WILL MAKE AN AWESOME PRESIDENT!!

Congradulations Senator Obama! It's overwhelmingly obvious that you give people hope again and for me that is also true. Your speech today at the AIPAC, and as well as Senator Clinton's, were very inspiring. I believe you both had good points and I applaud the race, it was the most heated in many years. It reved people up to caring about who ran this country; made the contest become human again.

I think what you don't know, you will learn, as every single president has had to do. While experience is a good thing, hope is a better thing; and your heart and determination to overcome and succeed has given many people the will to see through the hard times with someone who does care. Thank you. I look forward to watching your inauguration in January.

My candidate is John McCain. Obama is fake.

i hope people realize what they did if obama becomes president!!! i know for myself i'm scared. he is so inexperienced, and one sided, everything will not be equal not that it is now, but mark my words this country is done and equal rights will be a thing of the past, especially for the white people. i hope you obama supporters are happy, i'll be asking you people next year at the same time how you like him if he is president. the country is going to hell in a hand basket?

congratulations Mr Obama you deserve to be the president of all Americans......may God bless you!!

"NO ONE IS GREAT ENOUGH TO BE HUMBLE." QUOTE BY GOLDA MIAER FORMER PRIME MINISTER OF ISRAEL. MY QUOTE; "OBAMA IS FLUENT IN RHETORIC,BUT HAS DONE NOTHING IN THE SENATE OF ILLINOIS OR THE USA. HUMBLE RELATED TO WHAT? HIS SPEECHES"? WE"LL SEE.............HRB

GOD BLESS AMERICA–LAND OF THE FREE!!! In that spirit of freedom, Obama should have the freedom to choose his running mate–without blackmail or pressure from any quarters. AT SOME POINT soon OBAMA WILL HAVE TO CALL HILLARY'S BLUFF! That will TESTIFY TO HIS STRENGTH AS A LEADER WHO CANNOT BE BULLIED OR BLACKMAILED. That is a sterling quality of Ronald Reagan: He is a compromiser; but no patsy. People saw a leader who is prepared to take risk. Obama IS doing everything to woo the Clinton some of their supporters; but it is clear that they will never co-operate or compromise. They will not be easy to work with; they only want a fight and talk about what might have been. Obama then must face up to them without fear. If they will rather have eight more years of George Bush, bugged down in an endless war in Iraq, huge tax break for the rich, elimination of women's right to choose by more conservative judges at the Supreme Court, more economic malaise, lobbyists' controlled of politics in Washington, etc, then he doesn’t need their votes! Obama will always have his detractors; but his resolve will earn him respect and most Americans will rally to give him the resounding support he needs to carry forward his vision. He will appear weak should he succumb to blackmail (as Mondale did years back and later lost). One of the reasons Mondale lost was the baggage of the husband of his running mate, just as Bill Clinton will be should Obama choose Hillary as a running mate. Obama cannot continue on a path of indefinite appeasement. His enemies will only become emboldened. That will ultimately contribute to his own destruction. This is true of especially internal enemies who are determined to do you harm—and who have predicated and calculated their rise upon something bad happening to you. Obama will never please them! Therefore, he must demonstrate strength and courage. May God give him Solomon’s wisdom as he seeks to resolve the difficult issues ahead. Surely, his enemies will never rest. Solomon moved swiftly to deal with his enemies. Then he ruled over a peaceable Kingdom! Obama’s enemies will never come to respect him unless he shows grit in taking them on. All America will see a leader who is prepared to take risk without fear!!! Enough is enough!!!

Very gentlemanly. Thanks, Barack, for showing such a pleasant side of humanity!!

It's funny how when Hillary scored victories, her speeches were all ME ME ME. And when Obama wins his speeches talk about the voters.

YES WE CAN MR. PRESIDENT IN GOD WE TRUST.DEMS,REPS AND INDEPENDENTS AS ONE AMERICAN WE SEEK FOR CHANGE

I am a Democrat first and for Obama second. I would have voted for either Hillary or Barack, but am pleased that Barack has the nomination. I am old enough to remember when African Americans had to ride in the back of the bus, couldn't go to schools, and couldn't sit with everyone else at lunch counters. My friends, that was only 50 years ago. It is absolutely amazing to see how far America has come. We just went through a nomination process between a woman and an African American. Absolutely amazing. I have been sad to be an American over the last 8 years. I am now, once again proud of what my country is becoming.

McCain's speech last night completely missed the point. He is a doddering old man who is being fed sound bites that are completely out of touch with the realities of our world. Add to that the weird, grandfatherly, almost whiney way he delivered his speech, and it is apparent that Obama is going to kick his butt. Once Obama wins, I sincerely hope he gives Hillary one of the key posts on his Cabinet. She should NOT take VP, and he should NOT offer it. VP is just arm candy for the president, and is mostly ceremonial. Give Hillary something she can sink her teeth into, to fix the damage the Repubs have done over the last 8 years!!!!

No country for old men! Just say no to McCain.

The worst mistake that Obama could make is listening to Jimmy Carter! He was the worst president in my lifetime!

All right, really the worst mistake would be picking Carter for VP, but other than that...

Obama/Clinton '08/'12

I have seen all of Obama's speeches, many of them more than once starting with his speech at the Democratic Convention back in 2004. Last night...Last night was the best I have ever heard. I am proud to be an American.

Democracy is self correcting. Bush was a mistake that hurt us all badly. Obama is the solution.

Congratulation president Obama!We've done it.

Congratulatons Mr. Obama from a former Republican in Wisconsin!

It is amazing to me that now that Obama has finally been able to clinch the nomination, his followers on these "Comments" still continue to hurl hate-filled remarks at Senator Clinton. Where do these people come from ??!!!

Obama is awesome!

I now hope that Barack does not choose Hillary as a running mate. Hillary is brilliant and often a better speaker than she is generally perceived to be. But she needs to rebuild her ego – get over her starving for applause and personal adulation – before she can be an integral part of a program for governing as envisioned by Barack Obama.

WHAT IN GOD'S NAME ARE THE PUNDITS AND THE MEDIA DOING THEY JUST KEEP THIS WOMAN FEELING AS IF SHE HAS WON SOMETHING SHE HAS LOST THE PRIMARY. AND IF YOU HILLARY SUPPORT ARE SO SORE THAT SHE HAS LOST AND WANT TO CAST YOUR VOTE FOR THE REPUBS THEN WHAT DOES THAT SAY FOR YOU? YOU ARE JUST AS POWER HUNGRY AS SHE IS. SHE HAD A FAIR PRIMARY SEASON AND SHE LOST GET OVER IT. WE REAL TRUE DEMOCRATS WILL LEAD ON IN OUR DETERMINATIONS TO TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK WHILE YOU FAKE DEMS TRY AS HARD TO SELL IT OUT. ALL TRUE AND REAL DEMOCRATICE LET US BAND TOGETHER AS BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY AND BRING OUT FAMILY MEMBERS HOME FROM THIS WAR THAT WAS ONLY TO GIVE BUSH A NAME. TO BRING HEALTHCARE, EDUCATION, AND A SENSE OF PRIDE BACK TO THE MAIN FRONT WE HAVE WORK TO DO LETS GET BUSY ALL TURE AND REAL DEMOCRATS AND

LEAVE THE FALSE DEMOCRATS WHERE THEY STAND AS LOOSERS

Too bad McCain is a war hero and of course he will win.

Obama, Kerry, Mondale all the same. Losers!

Last night we got the latest in the series of graceless and tasteless speeches that have been the trademark of the Clinton campaign. Rather than simply congratulate Barack Obama on such a historic night, she again trotted out the meaningless claim that she had more votes. Once again she reminded all interested in helping to contact Hillary Clinton.com. This woman with a family fortune in excess of $100,000,000 again, without shame, told the story of how she took money from a school boy who sold his bike and video games to support her. She is without conscience or shame and children should be protected from predatory people like her. While she voices concern (real or affected) for the disadvantaged, husband Bill calls critics scumbags and slime. Obama would be mad to have this pair on his ticket: they would undermine and destroy him.

HILLARY, BILL-YOU LOST

Obama = Hypocrite

History. First because he is an African American who is the Democratic Nominee. Second, the young people of this country worked hard for a man that we believe in. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke about black kids and white kids being able to eat and play together. What he spoke about came together and pushed Sen. Obama to his current position and it will push him to be the First Black President of America. If only Dr. King was alive to see the dream. The young can teach the old as well. GOD BLESS you Obama!!!!!!

Congratulations to the extreme left media and the foolish Dems who have anointed the object of their love affair. You now have a very cautious, biracial presumptive nominee who has marinated in Black Liberation Theology and racist rhetoric for decades!

Hillary is the best, and I will support whatever she decides. VP would be my last choice unless she knows something I don't?

But, if she takes it to the convention to secure Universal Health Care and/or if she secures the next Supreme Court position she will continue to serve admirably!

Joining McCain on his ticket would satisfy many of her supporters as would running as an Independent.

The Dems no longer deserve her support and service or Bill's, and I would love to see the new biracial guy fail all by himself!

Anticipating Hillary's decision with hope and prayer!

Clinton should NOT be the VP – this is not where she will excel. She is going to be FAR better suited and MUCH more valuable and effective in the Senate or perhaps the head of a government agency ... even the Cabinet, we need her fighting spirit somewhere where laws are made: the Senate.

Sit back and work your mojo in the Senate. Vice President is going to do anything for Clinton and Clinton won't bring near as much to the VP position as she would in the Senate or head of an agency or maybe, but doubtful, the Cabinet.

Congratulations Senator Obama, the way you are running your Campaign is truly inspiring and loaded with grace and power- thanks for doing whats right in the face of so much un-right. My word of encouragement to you is FLOW-

And remember that meakness is not weakness but power and wisdom under control!

God bless you and your wonderful wife an girls I know they are proud of you!

Carly,

No, the most arrogant candidate in memory just happens to be sitting in the White House now. Who else would thumb their nose at the rest of the world. You are either with us or against us? And who is us? God knows none of his relatives have gone to Iraq.

It amazes me that some commentors and the media in general are still contempleting and discussing about the future of Hillary Clinton when she has yet to gracefully accept defeat. Would people still trust a nail-biter, unable to even overcome her vanity and name recognition.

Congratulations to Barack Obama. What a historical event. The whole world is expressing it. It is simply MARVELOUS DARLING, I LOVE IT. The next Pres of U. S. Barack Obama. WH no place for Clintons!!-No Veep.

I have no doubt this whole little article was written to answer what McCain said last night about his Arrogance and believe that he is destined for this moment in history!

NO THANKS!

I'm with the Candidate that is for the people and ready to serve the people…and has the voice of the people from being with us!

Don’t pretend to know what is best for us like we where sheep!

For once in my lifetime, the first time in my lifetime, I am proud to have watched real Democracy in action. Strong arm politics was thrown out for open door policies. I am so proud this country has come far enough to say NO to old school dirty politics and say YES to a bi-racial man from Chicago who gives us hope. He has already kept his first campaign promise....he gave us "Change We CAN Believe In" when he beat down the Clinton machine.

This older southern white woman is very very proud to be an American today.

This is a great day in American history. Just think over a few hundred years ago, african americans were treated as less than human, and now the first african american democratic presidential nominee. Wow!! We have come a long way. We have sent a message to the world today. America really is a land of opportunity.

Barack is the right man for the job. He really knows what the challenges are, and he approaches every issue with care and humility. This is a new day not just for America, but for the entire world. Change is truly on the way.

Congratulation Obama!
I think this is a great win for a great country, the americans and the people in the world! He is the best candidate and I'm sure he will be the next President of the United States!

its been wonderful all the way Mr Obama,you wil sure keep alive the dreams of martin luther kings.proud of you

"Free at last, Free at last!!"
Dr. King would be proud of all of us that have
wished for or helped Senator Obama get to this position.

"We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are
created equal."
Our founders would also be proud

If you love America, you love this new day!!!
If you love your fears and wish to return to an age of hatred,
ignorance and oppression too bad. The tide is turning.

VOTE VOTE VOTE!

GOD
BLESS

HOPE U UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF THE ABOVE, LET ALL DEMOCRATS SUPPORT HIM, IT IS TIME FOR CHANGE AND THAT'S WHAT HE BELIEVES IN.

@ Hillary for the President.

Why not get over it? If you can get your head out of Hillary backside for a minute, you'll see that the ship had set sail ages ago and your Hillary lost fair and square.

And to the winner goes the spoil. CONGRATULATIONS Sen. Obama.
If God says YES, which human can say NO.
May God's guidance and protection continues to lead you in all your endeavours.

I am an Independent, who has not supported one candidate over another. If all Americans think for one minute we have a voice in this or any election forth coming you are mistaken. The elections are manipulated to sever the few high-powered in government.
Just look at the events of this campaign.
Lets be honest here, from day one the news media has been bias. They have not been fair to the candidates, nor given Americans the real truth behind the stories. They broadcast what they want us to hear and know. Have you ever noticed the clips they choose to show, clips that in most cases then not are negative, without out revealing the actual truth behind it.
The talking heads you see before your TV screens get there marching orders from the higher ups, who have already set the agendas.
These self-severing originations from the onset, picked a candidate and proceeded
To influence the American people with propaganda. The news media, journalist and ill informed annoying talking heads are part of America’s problem!

Sympathy for Senator Clinton, I think not! PROUD YES INDEED!!! She is a fighter, strong with many years of experience. She represents millions of strong Americans who will support her in whatever path she chooses.

Obama is the presumitive nominee. Until the conventions, no one including McCain, are the nominees. the convention is when the actual votes will be given, until then anything can happen. I will wait until the convention to see the actual results. Out of three possible scenarios on popular votes, Obama is ahead in only one. He is not my nominee. If he is the actual nominee in August and that seems likely, I will at that time know how I will vote in November. I suspect I will have to vote for Hillary, by write-in.

OBAMA 08...jump on the bandwagon. Its moving with the majority. Congratulations OBAMA...to the whitehouse we go

I think he is arrogant, and has played the race card in every speech he has given. The urgency of now, I have a dream, and Selma one or another or all three have been mention in every speech I have heard Obama give. I defy anyone to find one in which race has not been brought up. Just one speech?

The Messiah has arrived...! Saint Obama keep fighting for us...

Congrats...I'm not voting for you but congrats.

This guy didn't win anything....the superdelegates gave him the nomination. Count the votes, more people supported Hillary because she would be a far better candidate–and president. It will be interesting to see how far he gets without half of the democratic party actually supporting him.

His appointment might be one small step for men...but its a giant leap into sexism.

Enlightened Voter – No Hillary for VP – Well said.

Additionally, yes, Hillary ran a great race and should be commended for her efforts and accomplishment. But, Obama is the presumptive Democratic nominee and should be respectfully acknowledged as such and then petition, suggest, coerce the possibility of HRC being on “HIS” ticket without the "demand“ undertone.

The goal of ensuring a Democrat in the White House in January 2009 seems to be falling by the wayside and the Repub’s are laughing/gloating all the way to the bank. CAN WE PLEASE STOP THE FIGHT AND UNITE!!

This man makes me want to believe things can change. I have switched parties to vote for Obama.

I work with a bunch of Republicans and no one will talk to me today. They will only say they didn't bother to watch the primary coverage last night and don't really care about the results. I hope most people aren't that close-minded.

Senator Obama is the best person to be our president. Obama understands how we value our families, our work, our faith and our country. He has knowledge from the school of hard knocks. He has learned from his respective birth families, a tradition that honors productive hard work and the achievements that come from it. One of the best things he has going for him is he is honest. Please Hillary supporters transition for unity.

please go to hillary's website and submit a comment: ask her to stop down. tell her we don't want her as our VP. i already submitted my request and my friends have too. hillary needs to know that this has to stop: we cannot take her divisive rhetoric anymore...she has said too much trash about obama to know want to be his vp. she has to remind supporters that she is a democrat and that democrats should put the party first....mccain is another bush term.

obama generation 08

Awesome and gracious man. I have switched parties to vote for Obama, NOT another Clinton!!

Stop all the hate people and let’s unite our party! I agree with the supporter from Iowa. Why is it when an individual like Senator Obama that has intelligence and great leadership skills is before us, most people believe or comment, "the only reason he has come so far is because he is black." As my friend above stated, "he would have one the nomination not matter what color he is"; the man is a true leader.

On to the White House Mr. President!!!

Obama/Richarson ‘08

Thank you Mr. Obama for conducting yourself and your campaign with honor . I will continue to contribute to your campaign for the long fight ahead. After seeing your Republican challenger's speech last night, you have no competition.

I thought Obama was the nominee for "CHANGE"???

Then why does he have all these Democrat big-wigs doing his VP hunt and telling him what to do??? Makes me wonder what he will change??

I am so honored and proud to be able to witness and support this historic moment that many thought would never happen. This primary, this campaign and now this nomination shows how far America has came and the direction it is going!

MLK made his "I have a dream "speech in 1963, August 28 to be exact and Obama will be announced the Democratic Nominee August 28, 2008. This country is making great strides! History is being made!

Congratulations! Mr. Obama. God is with you always. You have made us proud.

Congratulations Barack Obama. Your achievement last night has changed history forever. You have the support of my family.

Hillary will bow out as soon as she collect enough money to cover her dept...
I went to her website last night per her recommendations: They just wanted money. You will not be able to read anything other than donate or contribute blocking your way...

Yes we can
but NOT IF HILLARY IS VP

Carly wrote..Humbling? This, from the most arrogant candidate in memory? Puh-leeze!!

You are on a bitter train aren't you. Wake up and see the sunlight. It might give you a better perspective in life.

Clarification.....Obama may be a "man of color" but he is not an African American. You cannot tell me that his experience of a Prep School in Hawaii and Harvard is anything close to that of a young man who grows up hearing gunshots and pushing his way past dope pushers, pimps and hookers. Regardless of what his campaign may say, he has been playing the race card all along...every time you see him on TV. No one can ignore that he is not white, but misleading my real African American friends that he is somehow "just like them" is another marketing gimmick. He is a product of excellent marketing that points him in the direction of being whatever their research tells him that he needs to be. And the media willingly buy in.

"I am so proud of you Mr. Obama" from a little 60 year old grandma.

I THINK IT'S AN AWFUL IDEA, OBAMA AND HILLARY ON A TICKET TOGETHER. IT WOULD BE A MISTAKE THAT HE'D NEVER RECOVER FROM. I FEEL LIKE SHE'S A BULLY. SHE DIDN'T GET THE NOMINATION AS SHE EXPECTED, SO NOW SHE'S GOING TO FORCE HERSELF ON THE PARTY AS THE VP NOMINEE. SHE WANTS IN, AND IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW. I SEE HER SABOTAGING (SP) HIM AT EVERY TURN. IF HE WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH TO BE POTUS, PER MS CLINTON, THEN WHY IS HE GOOD ENOUGH FOR HER TO WORK ALONGSIDE. MR OBAMA, PLS DO NOT SELECT HILLARY CLINTON AS YOUR RUNNING MATE.

THANK YOU

Sandi:

It was some of the American people, the Democratic Party and superdelegates who want to get re-elected who gave the nomination to Obama. You sound like the media. Proclaiming him the Messiah and this the second coming! What a joke!

Fact is withoout the white vote in Iowa he would have been out of the race loooong ago, and if he doesn't find someone with some ounce of intelligence to TELL HIM to choose Clinton as his running mate then he ma as well give it up now.

He will win with her on the ticket, but not because of who he is or anything he has done, but for the people who carried that loser on their shoulders and put him in the Oval Office.

He'd better be humbled, he's the weakest candidate to be nominated (if he will be the nominee) in years, and has sort of stumbled towards the finish line with barely 50% of the popular vote. This is hardly a win and he has just 100 delegate margin over Hillary with a deficit in overall votes.

Due to the contentious nature of this race, she should still go to the convention. Obama cannot win a general election even if he is the Dems nominee.

Actually I told my son Malcolm, that this shows he can be President; even with his big ears.

Congratulations Obama! Congratulations United States of America! We just may be on the road to change!

YOU DID IT YOU DID IT YOU JUST NOMINATED A BLACK MUSLEM, WITH AMERICA BASHING PRIESTS!

YOU GAVE THE RIGHT WINGERS THE BEST POSSIBLE DEM TO THRASH IN THE GENERAL ELECTION!

GOD SAVE AMERICA

WE ARE SO PROUD OF SEN. OBAMA! WE ARE PRAYING FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!

Just as Sen. Obama said last night, I too, believe in the goodness of we, the American people. There will always be the small-minded-Rush-dittoheads-fear-mongering among us. However, I believe that the our nation is FED UP with the politics of destruction-swiftboating-lies-division!

Its time to come together as one nation, indeed under God. Its been a tragedy that the Republicans have given Christians such a bad name by spewing hatred and division!

We DO need to talk to Hamas, Iran, North Korea........ and ALL our enemies! There is an old wise saying: "Keep your friends close and your enemies even closer!"

Those who would denounce Sen. Obama for speaking to our enemies are ignorant! War should only be our last resort, not the first!

What has war with Iraq given us? More enemies, more terrorists, more debt (over $10 TRILLION), more loss of life of our wonderful soldiers dying at 19 for what? LIES & OIL!

The truth will set us free of Bush and his cronies! But watch out the RNC will throw everything it can against Sen. Obama....... we, the people, need to be prepare for the real scorched earth!

Congratulations to Senator, soon to be President Barack Obama.

He handled himself brilliantly throughout the Democratic Primary.

We need President in the White House who will tell us the truth, nothing more and nothing less.

We need a President who will hard everyday to fix the economy, make us safe against terrorists, and respect its citizens.

Now that the Democratic Party got it right- – let's pray that America follows suit and gives Senator Obama the popular and electoral votes it takes to win the White House for the American people.

Good Luck soon to be President Barrack Obama, and God bless you, your family, and America.

Obama ATTENDED a RACIST CHURCH and applauded the sermons given by Rev. Wright

Obama ATTENDED an ANTI-AMERICAN Church and donated $27,000 to help promote hatred towards Americans.

Obama sees Americans as the "Typical White Person"

Obamas sees Americans as "Bitter, Gun Toting, Faithless" people

Obama has been the GREAT DIVIDER of the Democratic party and millions of Democrats will refuse to vote for him in November.

I have never tolerated or supporter racism....and I am not about to start now...just because Obama is black.

Obama has proven that he CANNOT be trusted with our great nation.

NO OBAMA......even if it means McCain wins in November.

We survived 8 years of Bush so 4 years of McCain will be a piece of cake.

After all voting for Obama would be like voting for another Bush term.

NO OBAMA!!!

Carly.. where do you see arrogance? From humble beggings to this historic moment. He stayed true to his values.

I can not put in words how much I am happy for what Senator Obama has achieved. He has inspired so many Americans and non Americans with his policies and dreams for United States of America and the World. I am from Afghanistan and a permanent US citizen working as an engineer in one of leading renewable energy companies in United States. I do not have the right to vote but I am honored to support Senator Obama who I believe will bring back America to its glory in the World. I love America and he is going to be a president who once again will make Americans proud to be Americans as John. F Kennedy did.
t is time for America to come together as a nation and together we can make America a caring nation not only to its citizen but the World.

I am disappointed with Senator Clinton comments and approaches, I believe that she is a very smart woman who has changed the American history by running for presidency, but she may need to realize that the presidency of United State should be about the Americans and not about her ego for presidency. It is time to come together as Americans, Democrats, Republicans, and people of all races and background to tackle the challenges we face today.

I believe Senator Obama is the best candidate who can deal with today’s challenges that US faces, such as global terrorism, economy, healthcare and most of all caring about the rest of the world.

Being from a country which has been a victim of terrorism, I believe we need to stop the policies of fear and tough talks which we saw in the past 8 years did not do any good, and start to engage in global talks with countries which doesn’t necessary agrees with US policies.
It is impossible for US to sustain its security and economy without getting engaged with the rest of the world. We need to strengthen our relations with Europe and encourage Unite Nations to play more active role in resolving world conflicts.

I think some people are taking the comments of Senator Obama out of context about engaging with dialogs with Iran, Syria, and North Korea. I believe the leaders of these countries are the Iranian, Syrian and North Korean versions of President Bush and it is nonsense that we have listened and taken President Bush policies for the past 8 years but refuse to even start a diplomatic dialog with the Iranian, Syrian and North Korean leaders.

I wish good luck for Senator Obama and I believe he will win the presidency of United States and I will be looking forward and honored to vote for him in his second term when I get eligible to vote.

Good bless America and the world.

Was/is one of those persons who knocked barriers Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the man Obama threw under the bus for political expediency?

Mr. Spirit

Wright dove head first infront of the bus with out any help from Obama. Check your facts. After the first Incident Obama went out on the limband defended the man. Said he disagreed but he would not disown him. What Wright did by that media whirlwind was slap Obama in the face... friends dont bring the sharks to your door step

My personal goal is to register at least 1,000 people by November in order to vote for you, Mr. Obama. I owe you this one. Take care. Can't wait to see you in the white house. I love you sir. You're my god.

Congratulations Obama,

I know you will make us proud. Have your moment. We will be here during Novemeber to cast our votes for the next President of the United States:

Barack Obama 08'

Obama will never win alone. Without Clinton, McBush is a definite.

So sick of the media in their usual ridiculous overkill reporting on Obama's nomination with headlines like, "Look What We Didi!", "America Chooses Obama", "America Has Spoken", blah, blah, blah.

Let's face it. Obama did NOTHING. If it had not been for the white vote in Iowa he would have been out of the reace before he was even in it.

If he had not played the race card and gotten the majority of the black community who are unable to think for themselves behind him from day one he would have been history, not made it, long ago AND if he does not pick Hillary as a running mate he may as well not even bother becaue he will lose in a landslide to McBush.

Another fact is the majority of the Democratic voters, the Democratic Party and the superdelegates can't see beyond the end of their noses. The voters are ignorant and believe whatever they are told to believe, The Party will never learn, even after loss after loss in Congress and the White House, and the delegates are more concerned with gettign re-elected than anything else, even more than getting back both houses of Congress and the White House for the first time in decades.

IF, and that is a big IF, Obama should win it will be because the white vote and Hillary on the ticket gave him the presidency, or without her on the ticket, it will be because more Americans than not have finally awakend from their 8 year sleep and realized that they are so disgusted with Bush and Cheney, who have always been interested in only two things – power and their bank accounts and to hell with the country and its peoplem and witih the Republican Party as a whole.

Should Obama succeed it will not be because of anything he has done, just because he was carried to victory by what others have done for him.

CONGRATULATIONS! One down and one-to-go. And for all those who don't think he'll make it to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave – stay tuned.

President Obama, You are the chosen one! I feel the spirit when you speak; you move me like no other! I beleive that "God" is guiding your path as a "Ordinary Man" to do "Extraordinary Things"! I can see it happening before us and I want to believe you will always do the right thing as you are a "Good Man" that will do our Country proud!

We are all so very proud !

Senator McCain will beat only himslef
it is very painful to watch and hear him speak !

Stay on course with the issues and from this day forward don't even mention your rival's name just talk about your plans, cause if he keeps speaking your name, he has nothing else to talk about and we already know that!

Humbling he is!!! Congratulations Sir on a job well done.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY

This is without a doubt an historic defining event not just for America, but for the entire world.
I urge all Americans not waist this great opportunity to restore their standing as the leader of the free world. Obama is the only current candidate capable of achieving this task.

Congrats Obama

And honestly picking HRC as your VP is a move I have just one thing to say or better for you to think over:

Politically she can bring in the fanatics that will jump ship and is a strong ally, But after all these months can you trust her as a person not to undermind you or even set you up for her next positioning in a few years

really can you trust her as a person?

LOL – wait until he sees how humble he's gonna feel when he gets his butt handed to him in November

God bless you obama,congratulation,God bless America.

"Carly" & "Spirit of America" – Are you so bitter and filled with hate for the man that you cannot see the significance of this nomination? Even if you don't like Obama, you must be able to recognize the progress this country has mad in just 40 years. His nomination was realized because he won votes from White, Black, Hispanic & Asian voters. For a moment, please take a second to recognize the greatness of a country that continues to grow toward equality for all men and women... Thank you America. I'm proud of us today.

Way to go Senator Obama soon to be President Obama. WE love you!!!

Obama’s head is in the right place. Last night his campaign chair gave him a remarkable comment. He said Barack never gets too high and he never gets too low.
He has the right attitude and I think people will respect him for it. He sees this is a historical milestone, but it’s not just about him. Go Obama!!!

@Hillary for President; what about last night that you didn't understand. Did you graduate from high school or obtained a GED. It is over for Hillary and guess what, NO VP. So, change your name to McCain for President. LMAO

While I know it will be difficult to find the time I hope Obama takes a moment to reflect upon the significance of what he has accomplished. That he stops for a moment and realizes just how implausible all this would have been a mere 40 years ago when Jim Crow was alive and strong. I feel humbled myself to have been blessed with the opportunity to see this happen in my lifetime.

Congratulations! The American people, in fact people from the entire world are congratulating Senator Obama. And he can hold his head high because he obtained this honor the old fashioned way – with integrity and decency. Unlike his competitor who has no sense of decency – it just galls me that Clinton doesn't even show the courtesy to bow out gracefully or for that matter at all!!! What is she waiting on – has someone forgot to show her the newspaper today – SHE LOST and apparently she doesn't know that she is no longer a candidate!!!

Congradulations Obama and America, finally we have someone in the White House that is really going to care about THE PEOPLE. That awful speech by McCain was absoultely ludicrus. Botoked out, he could hardly read the teleprompter, and he keep saying "that's not change we can believe in" He needs a new speech writer and public speaking lessons.

congrats obama and clinton for running an thrilling campaign!

How is it possible that there are still people who believe Obama is Muslim. Equally mind boggling is that 40 some percent of Americans are unaware that THREE buildings collapsed on 9/11. I realize the media is severely controlled, but some of these facts are inescapable.
???

What the?? How hard is it to spell J-F-K ????

I rest my case on the argument that the Obama
supporters are not the shapest tools in the shed....

Congratulations. You are a gentleman and a scholar. Hillary did a wonderful job knocking down stereotypes but Mr. Obama you showed what could happen when you don't resort to dirty politics.

I wish you God's speed as you go to the next struggle. Our ancestors would be proud and are looking down on you.

I would like to add this: NO B H O !!!!!!!!

We Clinton supporters despise Obama. Hello President McCain!!!

GOD BLESS AMERICA the only LAND ON EARTH where a son of herdsman and Akarnsas woman can become the president!!. The American Dream is still possible!!!!

I THINKIT'S GREAT THAT A WOMAN , A BLACK MAN CAN RUN FOR THE HIGHEST OFFICE IN THE COUNTRY.
BUT WE SEE HERE WHY THE ISSUE OF WOMEN IN POLITICS TO ME SEEMS SO DOWN PLAYED . THE GAME OF POLITICS HAVE RULES MEN PLAY BY THEM THE FIRST WOMAN TO GET THIS FAR ,SEES IT GETTING OUT OF REACH AND SHE WANTS TO CHANGE THE RULES. AT THE RISK OF SOUNDING SHOVINISTIC
THIS IS WHY ADAM AND EVE WERE OUTSTED THE GARDEN .
THAT IS MY OPINION. SHE IS FALL FROM GRACE.

Congratulations .....Obama thank you for giving us Ameicans hope for a better America. Keep up the strong message of hope and you will get to the White House.

Pat

PROUD! God Bless Obama and God Bless the world.

I congratulate you President Barack Obama. Our country will truly benefit from your strong leadership.

WAY TO GO, President Obama. I hope someone from your camp is monitoring these comments and taking the good suggestions to heart. PLEASE don't choose Hillary as your VP. How about Gov. Kathleen Sebelius from Kansas? She'd do a much better job aligning with your ideals than Hillary!

OBAMA/SEBELIUS '08!!!

This country is in a REAL mess...AGAIN!!!!!!!
I guess that it really does'nt matter how you vote, the DNC will just IGNORE the will of the PEOPLE and do what they want AND change the outcome of any election! Being from the great state of MICHIGAN, I am extremely upset with the DNC for over-ruiling my vote! SHAME on the DNC!
The ONLY thing we can expect from an "Obama Presidentcy" is NOTHING! Just a lot of fancy talk, and cowering to those who want to hurt the United States!
Hillary Clinton IS the only person qualified to be in the oval office!
I am sick and tired of people calling her a racist! It seems that people quickly forget that it was Obama's church leaders that made all of those racist remarks about Hillary Clinton!
Hillary Clinton has worked extremely hard for ALL of America's people for many, many years!
The "Super Delegates" DO NOT represent the TRUE will of the PEOPLE!!!!!!! SHAME on the DNC!!! AND all those "STUPID DELEGATES"!!!!!!!!!
May God help us!!!!!

Congratulations Senator Obama!!

Awesome speech last night! I was so proud and I'm so excited about the future!

God bless you and your family.

Obama '08
YES WE CAN!!

Senator Obama,
God Bless you and your family. I will pray for you every day from now through your presidency.

Oh please, You will make the worst president ever, hopefully you will lose and go back to your church and enjoy the hate that your used to. Your a fake.

Very proud of you Obama. All the way to the white house

Of course it's humbling. It's like putting someone in the drivers seat of a bus when he doesn't even know how to drive – trying not to smash the thing up is a very humbling experience.

hahaah !!! let see in November . Hillary is the # 1.

This is The Best thing I can see. I spent time in the U.S. Air Force, and
Graduated From UC Riverside, But This is my most historical event.
This is like seeing the Golden Era of American start. The Era when from
"Yes We Can" to We as A People are Great ! Who will care for All Americans!

Congratulation President Obama. You defied the odds. You took on the Clinton Political War Machine and defeated it! A modern day "David and Goliath!" This is the start of what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. dreamed about years ago! And America should be proud of herself as we lead the world in taking steps to end racism! God bless you and God bless The Unites States of America!

Gratulations Senator Obama !!!

All the way Obama, you will change america !!!

Congratulations Senator soon to be President Obama. You have made your Grandmother and the American people proud! Stand tall and know that you have favor.

Carly:

Arrogance?

Senator Obama never presumed his entitlement to the nomination

I'm not voting for OBAMA!!! He's a democratic yes but that doesn't mean I have to vote for him. I honestly believe he is not going to be a good president. The Democratic party has done themselves in. Democratis set themselves up for failure in the general election.

in this 21st century, who cares what Israel thinks, this is the USA, thats USA of America, not us of Israel, or anywhere else for that matter, our country is partly in the fix it's in, because of allies who are pro greed, pro insinuation, pro dual citizenships; and then become inflamed when people take issue; we need to cut our ties to some of these antagonists, and promote the constitution at home, abroad will take care of itself..

Congratulations Senator Obama! I hope we're calling you President Elect Obama come November.

Carly, nothing about his speech last night was arrogant. You people need to stop with the whole elitist, arrogant talk. I have never seen anything to make me believe he is that way. If you don't like his policies, fine, but don't make up stuff about him being arrogant and elite. Which candidate was raised by his Grandmother on food stamps? living paycheck to paycheck? He may have money now, but not as much as Hillary and McCain, so where does this come from?

Congratulations, Obama. Way to go!!!!!

It should be humbling...he is underqualified.

Oh he's "humbled", I don't believe that nor anything else he has said.

Go McCain

"Carly and Sprit of America" – Get over it, under it, beside it or whatever you choose. Your jealousy and immaturity is why alot of Americans are the way they are. Unite with the Democrats (if that is what you truly are) or don't unite. Either way, Barack Obama will be the next PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!!!!!

OBAMA / SEBELIUS-08!

........and....Thank you for caring so much about the rest of us that you subject yourself to the challenges ahead. Mr. Obama, thank you for your generosity. I love you and so does Miriam.

I'm a proud citizen of the great city of Chicago, and I've been a supporter of Obama's since the beginning, and I can't say how proud I am of this accomplishment. There is a ways to go, but thanks to Hillary, Obama is in the right position to sweep this country off its feet!

If you are afraid of change, you WILL be afraid of this man. But take heart, most people are afraid of change......until they embrace it, which is inevitable in this election. Even John McCain is talking about it. Think about it.....the Republican nominee is embracing the other candidate's entire political platform. And McCain actually thinks it is going to help him!!!

It's okay Republicans...you can join our side, we will take you in, and not hold it above your heads....

The time is NOW.

Go OBAMA!

Congratulation Mr President Obama. It has been a pleasure to watch and listen to you through out this primary. your speeches and messages of change is reaching everyone including the republic of ireland. Keep on the good work as the lord bless you.

Those that cannot appreciate the history that has been made have their own issues to deal with. Our system is broken. Not a little...but so much that I worry that it has been destroyed beyond repair. Continuinally walking the same path and falling into the same hole but expecting different results even though the same path is traveled is by definition insanity. Time for a change. And it starts today. Now people can work together for that change or they can continue to be the problem. The choice is simple.

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL. GOD BLESS AMERICA. GOD BLESS OBAMA.

He's like the cool kid in high school you always wanted to be. Everyone wants to be close to him. I wish I could meet Obama.

To those who come negatively on these boards, hope you have realized you have been run over by the Bush pessimism train. Pick yourself up and lets make change...Carly!

Congratulations Obama!!!!
You've got my youth vote
YES WE CAN!!!!

Obama is our future!!!

yes

U-ROCK OBAMA !!!!! Way to go !

Seator Obama

Congratulations all the way from us in South Africa. If Mr Nelson Mandela could lead our country from a land of division and segregation to a beacon of hope to become a united rainbow nation, then sir you can do it to the USA. Your citizens saw the same humility we saw in Mr Nelson Mandela. We are indeed looking forward to your first visit to our country as the next president of the the United States of America. God bless you and your family!

I swear I don't know if Barack Obama clinched the nomination or Elvis Presley. Some of you are way to sprung on this guy.

Obama get ready for the real deal. I want these same people to these same loving, kind, words about you if you should become President and mess up. They will stab you in your back. Why? Because this is America and that's how they do things here. They say good things about you in your face and call you names when you are not around. Mark my words, if you should become President for four years and don't have four good years, they will say you messed up because you are a black man. They will not say "he's not all black". They will say he's black. That's how white people are. You know you weren't ready for this job, but you better get ready because all eyes are on you.

An African American Woman who will always be loyal to Hillary Clinton, not becuase she is a woman and is White, but becuase she is the better choice. Stop hating Hillary because of Bill's mistakes. He's a man and they make mistakes every half second.

Mr Obama, ok, you've gotten so far. Congratulations! Enjoy, it. But Mcain will clean your clock. You are not ready for prime time. By the way, did you serve in the military? If you love your country, why did you8 not?

Congrats Mr. Obama.
You ran a good, clean campaign and You won by playing by the rules.

However America is still divided. Thanks to Mrs. Clinton for this.

You got a lot of work to do Mr. Obama and we believe you can.

We are right behind you 110%.

Think of it–40 years since MLK. Forty is a time of trial. How I cried when ABC put a few seconds of MLK's "Promise Land" speech on after Obama's speech. Detractors and haters we need you because you keep me praying and millions of others. I'm a black Ph.D in sociology–this is charisma which is gifted, not guts, as Hillary has. I love her too but there can be only one winner.

... He deserve that! ... He deserve to b a president! ..

Congratulation Senator Obama to you and your family!!!
now onward and forward to peace and prosperity!!!!
Down with MCSame and the war mongers and the same ole same ole!!!

For the first time in 40 years, I will vote for a Republican for President, At our Democrat county convention I watched Obama supporters cheat and break the rules. There is no way I can vote for a man with these type of "anything it takes" supporters. As you can guess, I was and still am a Clinton supporter.

Humbling? Wow maybe so. He sure needs it. He is cocky and arrogant, even more than Dubwa.

You are the one whom American needs!!!
go OBAMA!!!

PROUD ! God bless you Obama, Michelle, and the girls. And God bless America.

no hillary as vp!

When I read comments like Carly, it really makes me want to go off but I am going to try to restrain myself. It is evident that you have another problem with Obama. Obama has ran a good campaign, not the Carl Rove type campaign that the Republicans and Hilliary have run.

You go Obama. You will be president and I will do all I can to help both physically and financially.

WE ARE PRAYING FOR U....MR OBAMA....JAMAICA WI..........

Obama, we love you. Our prayers go with you and your family. You inspire us just like JFK. God bless this country and our president to be.

For the first time in my adult life, I am really proud to be an American. I've always been proud – now I'm REALLY

I love your humility and intelligence Barack!! You will make a great President. It's sad how some people see your confidence as arrogance. They just aren't smart enough to know the difference.

Carly = HATER

you say BARACK is is arrogant.... How arrogant is it to LOSE then HOLD THE ENTIRE PARTY HOSTAGE, while you scream, pout, and hold-your-breath into the V.P. position...

yeah.... that's what i thought.

"I LOVE HIM!!!!! YOU CAN'T HELP BUT KEEP IN TUNE WITH IS MESSAGE HE GIVES US HOPE AND BRINGS US INTO THE LIGHT. WE ARE FINALLY EMERGING OUT OF THE DARK AGES. THE TIME IS NOW

YES WE CAN!!!!
YES WE CAN!!!!
YES WE CAN!!!!
YES WE CAN!!!!"

"that speech last night almost had me almost in tears".

this is pure lunacy. american idiots.

As a Kenyan Raising an African American in Arlington, Texas. it now makes it easier, for me to tell my son he can be anything that he wants to be, white, black asian whatever you are, I am sure we all can relate to Obama's story in someway, God Bless him and his Family

Obama arrogant???? jajajajajajaja

best joke of the day....

Congratulations President Barack Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!. The people have spoken, the elections are over for the nomination. you are the nominee of the Democratic party. We love because you are so humble. Your speech yesterday was so graceful. Keep up the good Job.

Obama '08

It's time all of us unite and fight!!!! If we do Hillary will take back what is rightfully hers!!! Hillary can expose the sexism that is rampant within the DNC and by doing so destroy and castrate that wholly male instrument. We must not let the fact that Obama received as many popular votes as Hillary dissuade us!!! We must not let the fact that Obama received more pledge delegates interfere!!!! We must not let the fact the Obama received more super delegates silence our screams. WE ARE WOMEN, HEAR US ROAR!!!!

Hillary can still win as long as she continues to run her campaign the way her women supporters run their lives; with an absence of logic and decisions based purely on emotion.

HILLARY FOR PRES. IN '09

I think, if left to be his own man; Obama , could bring this country together.But, that would be in a "Perfect World". We know, this World isn't Perfect..............................there are, "Slumbags" around!

"Horlet: This is far more than historic, it is a paradigm changing. You have to know people who were born in the segregated South to really understand this. People who could not try on shoes in shoe stores so they had to trace their shoes on cardboard so they wouldn't defile the shoes. To really understand what this means you have to consider it in the background of this country.

It is empowering. It is historic. It is a dream come true and I love it in every cell of my body. He won running a clean campaign with the right people supporting him. Now it is on to the Presidency and I am happier than happy."

How quickly people forget and hwo widely people are unaware of America's tortuous history. If you look at this nomination in PROPER perspective, you have no other choice but to find this absolutely amazing, astonishing, awesome, and awe-inspiring!!!!

Obama NOW-'16 and beyond for the continued positive influence he will have throughtout this nation and our world.

I am a Hillary supporter who will not vote for him even if she is the VP nominee. He is inexperienced, arrogant, and his speaking leaves me thinking of a televangelist, which is not a compliment. I have joined the McCain campaign as of today.

Congrats to Mr. Obama and his campaign

You have given new meaning to the word humble and have shown the country that a campaign can be ran without mud slinging. Do not allow yourself to be pressured into selecting a VP that will no doubt have little or no respect for you and still feels like she is the best candidate and has yet to congratulate you. Select someone you can trust to be by your side and not undermine your your authority.
Come re-visit Indiana soon and go to the Tornado disaster sights.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!Senator Obama...I was moved last night ....I could not hold back the tears..it was a overwhelmingly feeling that this moment brings in our history...and as a people in the world......I am not american ...but as I watched from my island JAMAICA WI...I was equally. proud....Mr Obama the world is waiting for you...We are paraying for u.....GOD BLESS U..... Continue to be strong even the face of adversary......because when GOD IS IN THE VESSEL WE WILL SMILE AT THE STORM......

CONGRATS OBAMA. GOD has chosen the right person for the Presidency. You have a heart for God's people, humble in spirit and the temperament of calmness and restraint that is needed as a leader. You have showed this election was truly about the people, the world and not about yourself.
Hillary SHOULD NOT be considered as your VP. She has the spirit of being self centered, selfish, sore loser and right now showing the spirit of a woman who has been scorned.Also she would undermine your presidency to make you look inadequate. HIllary and Bill have to much bagage that will not fit in your vision " WE CAN CHANGE". She has shown in this campaign it was all about her not the people.
Tell Hillary, crying crocodile tears this times will not be in her best interest and she is not entitled just because her name is Clinton.

Unbelieveable!!!! A man of integrity. He supports everyone!!!! He inspires me, 100%!!!!!

Just shut up, Carly

Congratulations!! Great campaign, looking forward to your future leadership which I hope will be as the next president of United States of America.

Please don't pick Hillary as running mate, please please.

To Obama Nation; Please treat Clinton Nation with all due respect. we need them to help us re take the white house. It does none of us any good if McCain wins so let's be civil.

To Clinton Nation; Please accept the fact that there can only be one winner and that winner is Obama. If you don't like that fact you have the right to jump to McCain at your discretion. Telling us on the blogs that you will vote for McCain will not influence us to switch our allegiance to your candidate. But before you change to McCain make sure you listen to your candidate because i'm pretty sure she's not going to tell you to vote for McCain.

Congrads Obama...America has come a long way. I can't stop smiling!

I am a proud American today! Congratulations President to be Barack Obama. Congratulations to Michelle and their daughters. I am 52 and have never been so excited to vote in my life!!!

For the past few months I have been reading over the comments being made from all three sides. I was never a very political person, I just voted for the person I truly thought would be best for the country. My country, the one I enlisted to serve in 1974. At that time it was not a very popular thing to do as many of you will remember. But after watching the protests, riots, the deaths of so many people in this country, students becoming active in the way this country was being run, the lies, the truths, and everything else that I was being exposed to, I elected to serve my country. Like the countless Americans that had made this choice before me and many more brave souls to go after, I did this because I believed in what this country stood for, what so many before me had died for, men and women of all races and nationalities, exactly what many are putting their lives at risk for right now. Dispite what you may think, this was all done for you. This is America people let's act like it. Stop making idle, insulting threats to each other. It does not serve the Greater Good.
A terrible wrong has been done to this country by the people we put in charge to protect it. It's time to make a change people. Wake up!!!!
If we don't do what should have been done 4 years ago for the good of our country, then.............................WHY ARE WE HERE???????

As an African American supporter of Barak Obama, I am proud at the way he ran his campaign. He ran it with integrity & honesty and even if he loses to McCain in the fall I will be proud of the fact that I voted for him.

jeez, it must take a lot to humble a man who has written two autobiographies at age 46.

blah blah blah to him.

I am THRILLED. Congratulations, and now let's take you the rest of the way to the White House!

Time to put the VANITY away Hillary. Barack is on his way.

OBAMA-WON
BILLARY-LOST
GAME OVER!!

Our God is an Awesome God! Senator Obama stay focus and humble and run your race. In the Bible the book of Habakkuk. 2:2 says to write the vision down make it plan. Keep your vision in veiw. We will continue to pray for you and your family. We love you Michelle and the girls. Thanks for all you have done and is going to do!

We love you Obama, we want to see America as no. 1 in the world and lead. You are the only hope and may god bless you.

Today the world woke up and saw America though new eyes . They saw not only America's superior military might. They saw not only America's rightful leadership in the global war against terrorism. They saw the world's most power nation nominate a Black man with a funny sounding name (although that man is as much kin to the White as he is to the Black) to be the democratic nominee for President of the United States. The world that has demeaned and demonized America is in a state of "shock and awe". The nations of the world are compelled to see the American people and system through awestruck and admirable eyes for they see the proof that although there may be social, economic, racial, and historical problems in this great nation, the American system works in it's own time. It doesn't matter whether you are Republican, Democrat, or other. It doesn't matter if you support Obama or McCain, Huckelbee, or Hillary. What does matter is that you are a member of the greatest nation on earth. You are an American and to paraphrase another American with a funny sounding name, today America "Shook Up The World"

CONGRATULATIONS, MR. PRESIDENT!!!

I was totally moved by his speech. i was totally in the moment.

I think the enormity of the situation was maginfied by the fact that a mere 600 people went to listen to McCane make a juvenile fool of himself, and 37,000 people showed up to be a part of a proud moment in the history of this country.

As a white male, I must say that I feel we as a people have been vindicated, and that makes me proud to be an American.

Last night while hearing his speech a tear rolled dowm my face because I'm one of millions that can say 20-30 years from now that they witness history. My only wish is that Martin Luther King was still alive so he could have seen his DREAM come true.

THIS IS A PROUD DAY TO BE AN AMERICAN.

Obama will be an American President who happens to be black. He is for all people because he is bi-racial (white mother and Kenya father).

I feel in my heart that John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr and Bobby Kennedy did not die in vain. They were killed in trying to unify this country and prove that we all can live in harmony if we choose. Many more African Americans also struggled for the cause of fairness for all people as many white people helped blacks in their struggles.

I am so glad Obama reached the younger people who will not carry all this negative baggage around and see people for their character and not the color of their skin.

Congratulations Senator Obama – a man of honor.

CONGRATULATIONS Senator Obama! You are rewriting American history! DC can't wait for you to move in to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue!!! We are praying God's strength and protection for you and your family. YES WE CAN!!! SI SE PUEDE!!!

As much as I wanted Hillary, because of party unity I am behind Obama 100%.

Barack means blessed and we are blessed to have him running for President.
He has my support !
Last night had me in tears.
I am so proud !

simply awesome. It brings chills to me that a little African American boy can now be told (and believe) that he really can be ANYTHING.

Now the real test begins. We're about to see just how ignorant/racist/stupid our country still is....

"I have heard from a number of people already, both black and white, that their kids — 7, 8, 9 years old — take for granted now that, of course a black can run for president, that a woman can run for president,"

Perhaps we should learn from the children. I know Obama made history last night but I do not see him as a black candidate for president I see him as an American presidential candidate as well as the best candidate for the Job.

YES WE CAN!!

OBAMA '08

MAY GOD TRULY BLESS YOU

08= NEW BEGINNINGS

THIS IS YOUR YEAR OBAMA!

CNN POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Humbling? This, from the most arrogant candidate in memory? Puh-leeze!!

Mr. President, we are honored that you will be the leader to represent our great nation.

Do not select Hillary Clinton or Bill Clinton for any post in your cabinet. This blackmail approach of Hillary and Bill is very similar to George W. Bush's approach to dealing with people he fees owes him or should feel indebted to him.

Barack needs a strong senior and experienced leader like Sam Nunn from Georgia to round out his ticket.

Once again, congratulations!

All I can say is Thank You Obama for running, my Son will turn 18 and the first ever vote He will vote Obama and He is so proud to be a part of history. I would have gladly voted for Hillary until I got to know the kind Man you are and where you came from. I would be honored to call you Mr. President.

Congratulations to Obama.

Now that you are on your way to making historical change, do not make the mistake by selecting Hillary as your VP. That is not change and more of the old, which you have been promoting. Select someone with your vision, values and take hold of the challenges of the future.

Ahhh yes,

This man who sat in Trinity Episcopal for 20 years listening to the garbage that spilled out into the aisles...this man who considers the
most divisive, small minds in this country his "mentors" and "friends",
this man who pretends he lived in ignorance of their self-indulgent ravings, will lead you all "into the light".

Sure he will.

VERY HUMBLING, RIGHT? We know big ears how humbling you and you supporters are. They can't quit downing Hillary. She is not a candidate anymore, idiots. So stop throwing crap at her. YOU KNOW OBAMA BACKED INTO THE NOMINATION. HE IS NOT DESERVING OF BEING PRESIDENT AND HE WILL NOT BE. You keep saying all those states he won. BULLCRAP. 16 States were cacuses States. Only 3% of the population get counted. He didn't win those states he was given those states because the DEAN-PELOSI led DNC wanted it that way along with CNN.

CNN COME ON GET WITH THE PROGRAM THERE IS SOME BETTER NEWS THAN THIS. I KNOW YOU ARE OWNED BY TED TURNER BUT FOR GOSH SAKES DO SOME FAIR REPORTING. GIVE SOME EQUAL TIME TO JOHN McCAIN.

You succeeded with the help of the Republican party in Florida of keeping HILLARY out, so now I GUESS you're attacking JOHN McCAIN now. Well this time, attack away. We Hillary supporters are not going to unite behind Obama even if she gets on the ticket which I pray she has better sense than that. McCAIN 08

BLAH BLAH BLAH,,,,,stop playing this game, its like if I dont vote for him then I am racist or so the liberal media would make you think. Sorry I think he is a good man, but I believe he is naive and a little decietful. The man attended a church for 20yrs under a preacher that believes in BLACK POWER. Lets examine that for a minute what if John McCain attended a church of only whites and the preacher talked about White Power? I know this does not represent the total man but the company you keep and the people you keep close to you says alot about your character and judgement. And that is what Obama is running on. He is saying my judgement and wisdom is better than the other guys. Dont get me wrong Obama is intelligent and articulate but he is DEAD wrong on alot of the issues that are facing this country. Who cares how we got there but the Iraq issue is very puzzling to me. We have finally turned the tide, this is real progress and Obama is saying no matter what the conditions are on the ground we are pulling out. Senator Obama we are winning and you must be a visionary and look at the big picture. A good and stable Iraq will not only benefit the people of Iraq but of the whole middle east and our country as well. I am not a huge McCain guy and I would love to vote for Obama but he is not ready and Do not trust the Democratic party at this time. We need tough people making tough decisions and my gut is telling me that the democrats are not up to this challenge. As much as there is wrong with GW and all his faults, he made tough decisions and stuck it out and now it looks like the tough decisions will benefit us for the years to come, with Democracy spreading in the middle east. Sorry Dems but history will be kind to GW and not to the weak and unproductive US CONGRESS.

Congratuations Senator Obama!!!

You and your family have my gratitude for your service to our country - I am filled with hope for what this country can become under your leadership.

I am an
OBAMA MOMMA

As a white middle age woman, I am beeming with pride for Barack and for our country.

Sen. Obama
Should you make it to the oval office. I sincerely hope you work as hard to keep your promises to the American people.
May God bless you and bless America.

Congrats President Obama. I like the sound of that

Congratulations Obama!!!!
I am so proud to be a supporter! I will work my heart out to see that you are the next President of the United States.
Hillary will not bully her way onto the ticket. Not this time, Not this election!

Obama/ Anyone but Clinton '08

Congratulations.. You have made us pround and we are looking forward to making history in Nov!

Congratulations.. Barack….Your victory is indeed a testimony for all who want to pursue things with honesty and humility.

God Bless..

Congratulations Obama you embody all that is good about our country and what it can become. You have reminded us of what makes us uniquely Americans and have so admirably represented us, lifting us above our differences in unity like never seen before. You are just the beacon to world this county needs at time when our image abroad has been tarnished. I commend you and thank you for honoring our country in such way that all Americans Black, White, Male, Female, Young, Old can be proud, inspired and most importantly have hope again!

Blessings.

Congratulations Senator Obama!!!
Yes we can, yes you did, and yes you will.

john mccain is deaf to the people of america when it come to whether or not americans have a say in the war even though he says he answers to the people not the press,..and also.the press is a important part of the community..its people reporting to people whats going on in their world...john mccain measure the success in in iraq by combative strength not by political independence..john mccain trys to shadow his major role he has played in the bush administration with small talk..

CONGRADULATIONS SENATOR OBAMA....MAY GOD BLESS AND PROTECT YOU AND GIVE YOU WISDOM AND GUIDANCE.....

AND CONGRADULATIONS TO SOON TO BE FIRST LADY..MICHELLE OBAMA AND TO THE FIRST CHILDREN...

A BEAUTIFUL FAMILY....GOD BLESS....

I am proud of the American public for making this happen. If you didn't and don't want to vote for him then don't be that person that reeps the rewards of what he will bring to this country. GOD BLESS YOU MR. PRESIDENT!!!!! You are truly a figure of whom I would like to see my children grow up under. Thank you so much.....

Congratulations OBama as a white person I'm so proud of you and your achievement, my town will always be on your side we are a small town full of white intelligent women , who wants hope and change not only for us but for our kids and grandkids...

We love you !!

Hey Clinton News Network:

Put a fork in it, Clinton is done.

Put Obama on your home page

Be "Fair and Balanced"

Today is a great day !

Yes we did!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually everyone keeps saying Hillary is all about Hillary. If you've ever gone her website blogs you'd see Hillary is all about her supporters.

However, there is a big problem with that. Her supporters on her website are delusional at best. Making up of mostly bitter women who CLAIM ONLY THEY have been ignored throughout history. They dismiss racism as Iran dismisses the holocaust. They claim the treatment of women, has been 10 fold to the days of black slavery. Basically, in their eyes they've always and will always have it the worst of any group.

Needless to say many of these women are feminist, some but only a select group are fema-nazi like pundits. These so called "Fema-Nazis" loath men and everything about them with no moral reasons to do so, or because one man, maybe their father did something horrible to them. This simply sounds like bigotry to me.

It's ashame they guide their lives with sinister hate. After all, I've never looked down to a woman and should not be looked down upon by woman. Once again, another group seeks to divide for their own personal revengeful reasons. Besides, what do women think Hillary will do for them. I will bet my last dollar you will not be treated any better just because a woman is President. This seems to be what some (but very few) of these women think. That they will rule over men and control them. However, I will tell you this, you will have to kill me before anyone on this planet rules over me. So I think not!!

The bottom line is they are misguided. Sen. Clinton to no fault of her own has attracted a feminist hate machine to her side. Now she has to find a way (for the better of the country) to convince these individuals that Sen. Obama is better then Sen. McCain. (Note: these feminist would rather put our country in a hole 10x worst with McCain out of revenge for Obama, THERE WORDS ON CLINTON'S BLOG) If Sen. Clinton had conceding last night this would have done nothing but angered them further. She is stuck between a rock and a hard spot, and she needs to be very careful onto how she proceeds. The fact is, if Obama doesn't win because of a hateful clan of feminist Sen. Clinton's hopes of winning the election in 2012 is nil. She will be unjustifiably blamed and their will be a target on her back from the first primary.

Think about it, the truth just sometimes hurts... BAD!

Congratulations President Obama!

Now on to the general election.

Yes we can! (and without HRC weighting us down)

Obama 08 & 12

Congrats Barack...go for it,we need you.

Yes he can. I can't vote, being on the "other" side of the border, but I favor Barack Obama, because he can inspire your nation. He is a great man except for one thing though I do not like from him... It is his unconditional support for Israel. Israel has been dictating US their foreign policy for too long. According to what I have seen this morning on TV at the pro-Israel conference, B.O. is already been facing the reality of a strong Israel lobby...!!! But, nevertheless, he is still the best individual to be your President.

I just wanted to make a comment to CNN. When I came to your website this morning to check out the news on the nomination, there was a big picture of Hillary on the home page. What?
I guess I expected a "history" headline. Instead I got "what will she do next?" Why do you insist on trying to predict the news instead of reporting it? History was made yesterday for Barack Obama, if it is made in Nov. is obviously yet to be seen and right now I could care less what she plans to do next. Don't turn CNN news into the tabloid channel like fox. Hillary will figure out what is next in her time and then it shall be news.

Senator Obama I am looking forward to voting for you in November, Hillary does not need to be on your ticket to win. I think you will do better without her.

Congratulations Senator Obama; behind you all the way!!!!!

AMERICA UNITE!!!!!!

YES WE CAN!!!!!

Great!!!! Whatever Barack does from now on.should not include Hillery and Billery...Pick a VP who will enhance your election

We ALL are very proud of you senator

We beg you, PLEASE DO NOT TAKE HILLARY CLINTON AS YOUR RUNNING MATE!!!!

Congratulations Senator Obama. I am giving honor where honor is due. As you continue your journey to the White House keep these Scripturesin your heart: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Phil. 4:13) and "I am more than a conqueror though Him who loved us." (Romans 8:37)

Marcey Huddleston
Marietta, GA

Congratulations Senator Obama!!!!!. You are so refreshing. YES WE CAN!!!! YES WE CAN!!!

I knew he was going to be President, when I first heard him speak at the Democratic Convention in 2004. God is Helping America!!!

Obama is always so very gracous unlike Hillary Rotten Clinton!

Obama we are so very proud of you and all that you stand for, keep up the unifing work. Obama something else you should always keep in mind we Independents and dissatified Rupublicans got your back, we will replace the Hillary supporters that insist on following their lying, conniving, backbiting, divisive leader, let them all go on their way do not allow them to strongarm or hold you highhacked with their demands when they really have no leveage to do so.

We really do not need them, if they insist on suffering through four years of McCain then so be, but they need to be the first to offer up their son and daughters in the wars and drafts that is sure to come, they also need to take full responsiblity for the deaths of ALL the brave souls that have already died and is sure to die. When they vote for McCain they are voting in agreement with this war and the others to come therefore they are held responsible because McCain has warned them before their vote. Let the blood of all be on their heads!
But do not allow them to force their way on us, put Hillary somewhere on the ticket where we will not have to be constantly reminded she's there, but do not give in to her. We trust her even less after last night and you had better have even less trust for her than we do, if that's possible.

Congratulations Obama!!!!!!!!!!! God bless you!

A great moment in history!

I voted for Hillary due to her experience (and her husband's). I did not see color, as you see; because I am a "very dark" black male from South Los Angeles! Now that he has won, I will support him and take faith in his seemingly sincere claims for change. Congratulations, Obama!

Thank you for doing your part to bring humanity and humility back to the political arena. God Bless.

And theYoung Lion roared like thunder last night and most creatures understood that he was born to lead but some have yet to acknowledge that he is the Lion King especially the old one (Bill).

It is what it is, so let it be.

Obmaaaaaaaaaa yesterday watching your speech I was so emotional you inspire us you are the best congratsssss OBAMA and please one more thing Obama pleaseeeeeeeeee if you really really truly care about the American people do not make the biggest mistake by putting Hillary as your VP pleaseeeeeeeee don't.

I AM NOW PROUD OF OUR COUNTRY

The whole world will look up to you as the great president of America.
It is about time. You are a generational world leader.

Congraluations I've been watching since January and am very proud of you Obama.

I am completely overwhelmed by this development. I am a Vietnam Era veteran of the USAF and for the first time in my adult life I AM REALLY PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN! I say that with the memories of JFK, MLK, and RFK still lingering and stirring my emotions. As a Puerto Rican with African lineage, I feel a sense of personal gratification that I can now sub-consciously walk with my head high and proud that our great nation has a chance to prove that we truly are a nation of immigrants and that neither color, race, nor religion, bear on our collective future prosperity. I am glad to be alive during this great historic moment. God bless America, it's people, and it's future President Barack Hussein Obama.

Que Dios Los Bendiga A Todos!

Congratulations Obama!!! You know, they said this day would never come. They said our sights were set too high. They said this country was too divided, too disillusioned to ever come together around a common purpose.

But on this day in June at this defining moment in history, you have done what the cynics said we couldn't do.

History in the making Barack Obama for president!!!

And to the people who say he has a huge ego...

For the first time in my somewhat short life, I'm REALLY proud of my country.

Sean S. I second that. I was at home clapping with tears in my eyes. God Bless Obama. Congratulations on a job well done.

Spirit of America, old news, find something worth venting about.

This is a great period of American history.
But, the man being black had absolutely nothing to do
with his winning. He was the nominee with integrity,
sincereity and honesty. He did not bow to dirty politics,
He ignored the distortions, accusations thrown at him
by his opponent. He did not dwell on or campaign on her
many shortcomings.
Am so excited, but certainly do not want Hillary for VP.
How could he ever trust her??

PLEASE SOMEONE TELL MR. OBAMA NOT TO GIVE HILLARY ANY VP TICKET. SHE WAS NOT SOPPOSE TO DEMAND IT AND OBAMA IS NOT DESPERATE LIKE HER. OBAMA IS NOT POWER HUNGRY.THERE ARE LOT OF SUITABLE CANDIDATES FOR THE VP POSITION. PLEASE PLEASE. THANKS

congratulations senator obama i new you could do it i had faith in you all along inspite of all the false ugly rumors about you thats why i supported you because of you we made history last night and it will be because of you when you become president the world will be a better place we will be welcoming you MR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES GOD BLESS YOU AND GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!!!

History will consider this a bright moment in a year of recession, forclosure, war, failures. This is the moment America got its mojo back after years of Bush-Cheney-Rove-McCain ruin and despair. History will also not look back kindly on Clinton moving the goalposts when she did not win every time she lost. Foreign leaders seem puzled by her lack of concession – why would they want to deal with someone who insists on changing the agreement after it has been made. They see Obama as credible, a leader they want to do the world's business with.

And maybe try some hoops too.

Gosh, if I could have been a fly on the wall during that meeting. Do ya think she cried?

Sen. Obama please don't let Hillary bully you into giving her the VP. You know she is going to want to rewrite the responsibilities of a VP. Instead of you making the changes you want you will be butting heads with her. You ran a good race and came out on top. You were gracious in victory and she was not in her loss. Just don't do it.

We support you all the way!

I'm honored to have you as our Democratic nominee.

AMERICA CAN FINALLY GET A FACELIFT, SHE WILL ONCE AGAIN BE BEAUTIFUL AROUND THE WORLD. SHE WILL BE SHOWERED WITH HONOR AND RESPECT, ONCE HE IS PRESIDENT.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE OBAMA FAMILY

YES WE CAN!!!

Dear Senator Obama:

I am so happy you won the nomination!! Please don't let off the gas until you win the White House in November. I join the others in praying continually for God to give you wisdom and perserverence thru the end of the election. It is your intelligence,common sense and humility that make you the best person for the job! I will be doing the dance of joy when you are sworn in as President of the United States!!

good job,god bless america

You should have been humbled by all the people who did not and will not vote for you in November. You don't have what it takes to lead us out of this wasteland. You will be humbled either by losing in November or being a miserable failure right there with George W. Bush and Jimmy Carter. Although, I say Carter is a wise and relevent diplomat. You may get there in about 25 years.

AMERICA CAN FINALLY GET A FACELIFT, SHE WILL ONCE AGAIN BE BEAUTIFUL AROUND THE WORLD. SHE WILL BE SHOWERED WITH HONOR AND RESPECT, ONCE HE IS PRESIDENT.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE OBAMA FAMILY.

My six year old asked me last night..."How do I become President of the United States Of America?" Not CAN I, but HOW do I! I simply said,,,,with tears,,,,hard work and determination, you can be the First African American/Latina Women President.

I am just happy, happy, happy. Congratulations, Obama..

Yes We Can!!!!

I think Sen. Obama came at the right place at the right time when this country needed a fresh perspective and new direction. Kudos to all those people who gave him a chance and listened to his message and didn't worry about the color of his skin.

Have you noticed the sentiment around the world of the prospect of an Obama Presidency? People are excited!

Love you Obama.
Do not choose Hillary as VP no matter what!
Obama/anybody bit Billary '08

Congratulations, may God give clear direction & guidance as you continue in your presidential race.

Please go to HillaryClinton.com. You will see a tiny form to fill out...

Send her a message to step down...

..Ask her to put our Country first..our Democratic values first...

...Remind her that the "Dream Ticket" is impossible because of her primaries anti-Obama rhetoric....

...Let her know we don't want her as our Veep...

Thanks.

Obama-Richardson 2008

MY SINCEREST CONGRATULATIONS TO BARACK OBAMA!!!!!! YOU DID IT!!!! I look forward to watching and supporting your general election campaign!

If only Hillary would concede and endorse him.....the longer she waits, the worse it's going to look on her. Narcissism as its best.

Congratulations Senator Obama! Stay humble, God will see you through. If Hillary Clinton wants respect, she gotta give respect. Obama extended the Olive branch, be a real sport and be humble. God does not like pride. Pride and arrogance will take you down. And tha's a fact!!!

YAY!! It's time for change!! Please don't let us down!

Obama is magnanimous !! Hillary could've just straight talked yesterday night and said 'Congratulations to Senator Obama on becoming the presumptive nominee..I will work with him, unite the party and let's beat McCain in the GE'.........Didn't hear any of that.....Instead she was still raving and ranting nonsense by repeating that she got 18 M votes etc......and Lanny Davis is another big piece of Joke....I was watching him on Larry King yesterday night.....he looked so pathetic.....One thing Clinton and her Campaign doesn't know at all, is how to accept defeat gracefully..

Come on...hasn't she seen it coming in the last month or so...weren't she prepared to immediately give out a quick and tidy conceding speech....that shows her readiness

There is hope for America as he represents the youth and the future. Now let's have the rest of the party quickly move behind him and start promoting a strong Democratic leader with a firm political agenda ready to square off with the Reublicans.

Hillary get in line, please.

GO OBAMA! KEEP YOUR DUKES UP. CLINTON IS NOT GIVING UP YET.

As a 50+ White Professional Female American, I am pleased to say "CONGRATS OBAMA!"

I disagree with the perception he limped across the finish line...the last month Obama has given Hillary Clinton as much freedom as possible....which gave her larger victories than she probably would have obtained if primaries where hotly contested.

He allowed her have her time in the sun, (knowing it would not cost him the election).

Unfortunately, Clinton is not as gracious. She did not have to acknowledge defeat, but should have acknowledge his win.

Barak around the clock! God Bless Obama! God bless America!

It's hard to not feel good about the future and America when you listen to the guy. I really hope people put aside their bitterness and get behind him. He knows he needs to fill his cabinet with people that have more experience in different areas than him. That's why I never bought the "more experienced candidate" line. Obama and his vision of unity and change will be the face of America...people behind the scenes help with the experience part. Our country has never had it's decisions made by one person.

Congrats Obama! Please do NOT pick Clinton as your VP, maybe Sec. of State.....that's it. Congrats again and we are all looking forward to CHANGE!!!

CONGRATS TO THE NEW PRESIDENT!!!!
Now, let's help him choose a VP that shares the same ideas as the Pres. Obama. Not have some divisive itch that is self-serving, egotistical and evil.

it is truly humbling and l too say congratulations and hope you still have the energy to carry on the hard work. good luck. thank you all America.

congratulations to his wish, he worked tough and rough to get it, so why is he humble now? He was not when running.

Why we have to be reminded all the time what we have now and what people did or did not have centuries ago? What is the point to look back all the time? I think enough was already said, whined about. Now it is to go forward, to think about economy, health insurance, education, global issues, global warming.

His campaign was nasty at times, his supporters were the nasties people on the blogs and out. So why this glory?
Why this constant glorifications?

He is half white, half black, so how it is determined what he is? He is not pure African American, he is not pure white. How people of mix are called -is there any word/term for it? Just curious.

We want and need to see the results if he will be elected. So far all is just words and promises, I want to see them fulfilled. I want to see the racism to be gone = erased, I want to see discrimination of any kind to vanish, I want to see people to do well, the poverty to be gone, I want peace in the world.
Is all this possible ?

Obama's tax policies are very troubling. As he seems very focused on redistribution of the tax burden, the next thing he'll come up with is the redistribution of our income. And what's up with his 20% to 28% capital gains tax increase? I don't think it's good for our economy.

Another thought. Obama will not be able to unite our country because he is way too far to the left (#2 liberal Senator in the US Congress – that's says a lot). If Obama is elected president our country will become even more polarized than it is right now. Just like under Bush, who is leaning more to the right, and look what happend with our nation. That is why, in my opinion, we need "maverick" McCain to unite America.

As the USA does, the world follows (generally). I can now say, I am one step closer to admiring the USA once again.

You Are A Living Example Of The American Dream! God Bless You Mr. President!

He should be humbled. If he can think ahead, he knows he can't perform the duties of president any more than he could the duties of Chicago alderman or US senator.

To Spirit of America–
Is distancing yourself from an obvious zealot really throwing that person "under the bus?" Rev. Wright continually said things and made comments apparently just to hear himself talk, regardless of the implications of what he said and the impact those comments would have. Why do I say he is a zealot? Anyone that truly believed that the AIDS virus was introduced into American society (black or white!) by the US Government should have his or her picture posted in the dictionary next to the word ZEALOT!!!

And so begins the darkest period in American history, perhaps the end. There is nothing humble about Barack Hussein Obama, he is a professional self-promoter.

That's right man, you are worth more than 3/5th of a vote to me. You truly are an inspiration to blacks and whites alike makings us see that the American Dream is still a real possibility and that this country might once again get back on the right track.

I really look forward to all the good you might do for this Country and make me again proud to have been born in the US.

Keep my dreams of a great America alive, Obama.

Barack you are the man!!! I can't wait till November, it's going to great.

Congrads to Sen Obama & the Obama Camp we knew you could bring the message of change to the American people. Now it's on to defeating John Mcain in the general election. I should be at the Obama rally tommrow @ Nissan pavillion in VA and look fwd to it. 'YES WE CAN"

"Obama 08 enough said."

It is especially great to note the millions of non-Black Americans who "listened, not to your fears and your doubts, but to your greatest hopes for the future". The Democratic party, led by the likes of Ted Kennedy and Jimmy Carter, has finally come of age. Now, I am sure, the rest of America is not far behind. Only together we can deliver.

From: World citizen, not black, not white, just concerned about Justice and Peace in the USA and in the world.

The Democratic campaign, as far as I am concerned was pretty much a farce. They knew who they were going to elect and the superdelegates did.

What really annoyed me during the whole campaign was: White voters were always asked if they would vote for Obama. When they said no, an immediate racial bias was placed on that person. Were black voters interviewed? In several cases, Obama won 75%+ of the black vote. Doesn't anyone besides me think that smacks of just a little racism? The media either doesn't think anyone other than white people can be racist or they won't cover it because it would open a can of worms.

Regardless of how PC we try to make this campaign, there will always be the smack of racism involved in one way or the other. Why? Because one of the candidates happens to be a black gentleman.

I am white. I admit it. I won't vote for Obama. I am planning on voting for McCain. The reason I won't vote for Obama is simple. He could win my vote if he did one thing. In my opinion, having pride in your heritage and culture is a wonderful thing. But saying you are an Afican American, when no one else says they are an Irish American, German American, Japanese American, bring up racial overtones in my book.

All Obama has to do to win my vote is say: I am an American. That's it. But he won't. He will always say he's an African American. I am not going to vote for someone who always puts something in front of being an American. And by calling himself an African American, he is making his race more important than the country he is living in.

Total pwn. Obama is the man. Congrats!

Congratulations!!!!!! Senator Obama, and next it will be Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mr. President Obama.........We are behind you. May God Keeping Blessing You.

Beautiful! Congratulations, Senator! I was in awe last night to be able to witness one of the most historic events in my lifetime. Yes, I will be able to tell my great-grandchildren of how the sea of change swept across our country and our world on that day. God be with you as you guide us to a new direction.

Obama,

anyone with a kind and open spirit can see the authenticity and sincerity in what you say and do. Its not the message that people oppose, unfortunately its the messenger. Keep proving them wrong. When you humble yourself God will exalt you, when you exalt yourself, you will be humbled. Stay humble and focused. You will be our next President of the United States of America

symbolism over substance. did all his great talk fix the south side of chicago? maybe all the latte liberals should start moving there.

Well, stupid americans just handed another 4 years to the Republicans.

Obama will not win.

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” There is nothing in there, that I see, regarding Obama’s premise that it is a living document to be modified as he or his fellow dems see fit. The founding fathers were for a limited government, a government that was limited, and the freedom of the people. It has been the most successfully experiment in democracy in the history of the world and Mr. Obama, we don’t need you to change it. We need you to protect and defend it if you want the job.

OH please "Spirit of America," HILLARY would throw her own family under the bus if it meant she would take the White House. And I agree, WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO THAT GAS TAX HOLIDAY??

If God is with you, nobody is going to be against you!!!! When God says "Yes", nobody can say No; even McSame or Billary!!! Congratulations, the whole world loves you. Every where people (from Asia, Europe, America, Africa and Australia) are talking about you.

To Sean S (1:27 pm)

I couldn't agree more. The only difference between you and me was there was no "almost" for me...the tears flowed. I am so proud today. America has truly come a long way and the world is watching. And by the way, we don't need Senator Clinton. We need change and we are on our way to just that! See everybody in D.C. at the inauguration in January. That's something I wouldn't miss for anything in this world.

YES WE CAN!!!!!

Congradulations Mr. Obama. I'm with you all the way! You are a great example for our children all over the world, always humble and polite, thank you so much!

Obama should feel humble, he only squeaked over the finish line and with the help the of the media. Even with the media counting her out for mos. she was winning up to the very end, even when she knew the numbers were not in her favor. She deserves the V.P. after every thing she has had to endured.

HEARTFELT Congratulations to President Obama!

We support YOU 150% even when Sen. Clinton can't seem to do the honorable thing and concede. We'll concede for her!

Let's get ready to rumble come November!

John McSHAME get ready, the Obama train is heading your way!

This is the greatest day for the living human race. Obama combines in him races, religions, colours, customs, costumes and continents. He is the uniting icon with sound mind and sympathetic heart. America can now once again truely lead the world with Obama as the president. I sang and danced, and danced and sang after hearing the great news. Thank you America.

As we listened to all 3 speeches last night we couldn't help but notice,
1)John McCain was talking as if somebody was wispering in his ear telling him at the same time he was speaking what he was to say next in front of his whole audience of what 300 people.
2)Hillary Clinton could not stop saying "I" as if it is the most important word in the dictionary. I guess in her dictionary it is.In front of her audience of what 600 people.
3)Barack Obama spoke as though JFK and Martin Luther King had written his speech. He spoke to everyone of the 20,000 people in attendance.
He thanked every one of his opponets and advisaries something that neither John or Hillary acknowledged.I truly believe that as a proud Canadian there is little doubt as to who should and will be leading the American people after n
November 2008.
Congradulations Mr Obama.

Congratulations! I am proud to be a volunteer in North Carolina. Whatever you do, DO NOT put Hillary on the ticket as a VP.

I think it will be refreshing to have a leader that speaks to the American people like we are adults.. I am so disappointed that in this historic event, Senator Clinton tried to diminish this moment for our country by not acknowledging him as our Democratic Nominee.

May God bless and protect you Senator Obama and I can't wait to vote for you in the General Election!

CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS

God bless the Obama Family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations Senator Obama! It would have been nice if Clinton would have acknowledged Obama's historic win last night, but as usual, she's playing games. Senator Obama should enjoy this moment, and give careful consideration to his choice for VP-I hope he is not pressured to choose Clinton, who stands for everything he is against.

I am at a lost. I never thought i would ever see this day. let alone my grandmother, who remembers sitting at the back of the bus.

Ive been called names, judged negitively, told i would not amount to anything, all cause of the color of my skin.

i cant find the words quite yet.

Thank u America for believing.

WOW...

What? Obama's black? I had not noticed.
But I like him a lot. Probably get my vote. I think the international community would appreciate someone who has a world view while protecting American interests. He represents the new American – inclusive, transparent, and on a moral high ground....or was that the old American I used to love? Didn't we used to be the good guys?

I WILL NOT VOTE FOR HIM. I WAS IRATE LAST NIGHT, I COULD NOT BELIEVE THE WAY CNN SPOKE ABOUT HILLARY! THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED! WHAT HAVE THE ANCHORS DONE FOR THIS COUNTRY THAT GIVES THEM THE RIGHT TO DISRESPECT SOMEONE LIKE SEN CLINTON? THE PRESS HAS BEEN IN LOVE WITH OBAMA SINCE THE RACE BEGAN.

THEY BRUSH OFF ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT HIM AND FOCUS HARD ON ANYTHING THAT THEY HAVE ON HILLARY. I AM AN OHIO DEMOCRAT. I DO NOT THINK HE WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO BEAT MCCAIN. THE HILLARY SUPPORTERS WILL NOT GO TO HIM.

NOT VOTING IN 2008!

Attention CNN - Today is all about Senator Obama. Would you please put HIS picture on your front page instead of the sore loser's.
Thank you.

Congratulations! I am proud to be a volunteer in North Carolina. Whatever you do,t DO NOT put Hillary on the ticket as a VP.

Congratulations Senator Obama!

Let us take Barack's lead and congratulate Hillary for what she has accomplished. She deserves everyone's respect.

What America has done is making headlines around the world today!

"We are the ones we've been waiting for."

This is our moment!!! This is our time!!! America shall rise again!!!!

Thank you Barack Obama for leading us out of the wilderness!!!!

You didn't look too humbled Tuesday night. You looked like you knew she can still take it away from you. And she will. Once she goes to the convention. Obama will never bring this party together because 18 million of us do not fall for his charm and empty words. KEEP GOING HILLARY>>>>>WE"LL SEE YOU AT THE CONVENTION!

Maybe Billary should learn something about being HUMBLE.....not in our lifetime...she's too into herself.

May God continue to bless Obama and His family.

In Obama is a great representation of who Americans are today that are looking for real change.

My prayers are with you and your family.

I'm sure all of you Obamites will remember these comments you're making if he and his wife ever make it to the White House. God help us! Judgement must not play a role in your decision-making. Let's wait and see how long you defend this empty suit once you get to know him and his friends better. He only got to that magic number through another lack of good judgement. Donna Brazile is a good example of that – her scolding of ex Governor of Michigan was a disgrace.

Clinton Democrats for Mc Cain '08

You are a humble man and that pays off in the end.

Congratulations, Obama!
You are a good man for this country! It was not an easy campaign...May God continues on your side!
An Asian American.

As a Canadian following this election I have to say that there were so many emotions going through me when I watched BO give his speech last night. However I must say my joy and pride was dampened by Hillary Clinton's speech and her treatment of the Democratic nominee for President of the United States of America. Today I am reading the blogs and reading what most Clinton supporters are saying about voting for McCain and I am shocked, appalled and disallusioned. Seeing your military stretched thin, fighting in two wars (one of which is an illegal war), thousands of casualties, the economy, heath care... and the list goes on and on... And these people, mostly women, who say they are Americans, who say they are patriotic are going to vote for McCain out of spite? Or revenge?

I do not understand! I do not understand how out of some misplaced feelings of hatred and disappointment, how you can put yourselves through another 4 years of a Republican President because your candidate of choice didn't win the nomination.

I am astounded that you can hold so much animosity towards someone who has only treated your candidate with respect even when she didn't.

God Bless and Goof Luck!

Congratulations to you, Barack Obama, and everyone who worked so hard, and those who voted for you. Your grace and composure under fire sets an example that has been sorely lacking in political figures for many years. When I heard you speak at the Democratic convention four years ago, your eloquence and authenticity brought tears to my eyes and a hope to my heart for my country that I hadn't experienced since JFK.
God Bless You in all you endeavor!

No offense Luis, if u don't have anything nice to say then be quiet.Obama is a great guy and I bet he will make a great President someday.

To all of those Obamas supporters, I have one thing to say DREAM ON... DREAM ON.. and celebrate that he was the Dem. pick because thats all you'll get comes November. The morons in the DNC don't count. So don't get your hopes to high

Humbling? Obama is the most arrogant person I know. He has been claiming victory for how long? Humbling? This is a joke, right?

Dear Senator Obama,the next few months will be the toughest you have ever been through.The Republican Attack Machine is in full force now.The good senator needs each and every one of us to educate our friends,family,co-workers about the expected attack on his religion or lack of it as they put it.His family,race,wearing a lapel pin or not and who he will meet with or without precondition.They will invent,contrive and twist information to create a doubt.He should not be answering every single attack.As his supporters its our duty to direct people to the right information,educate and explain the real issues.This way we all own a piece of the campaign and take back our country from the Republicans.God bless America.
Obama for President

Congrats Senator Obama for a remarkable achievement. May God Bless you, your family, supporters, and the United States. You have run one of the most gracious camp ever.

"To Spirit of America",

You need to get your facts straight........Barack Obama did not "throw Jeremiah Wright under the bus", Jeremiah Wright threw his ownself under the bus. All of you that were a part of the lynch mob that was out to disqualify Barack from the race, even after he took up for Jeremiah Wright, defending him because he loves (still love) the man, but just not his methods. It was time for him to distance himself from ANYONE who wants to continue to divide this country and more specifically distort the message of CHANGE Barack truly believes in. Any sensible person would have done the same thing; it's the same as having a friend for many years, who is constantly talking behind your back about you and offering up things your didn't say, nor meant in the way they were being said.

Grow up "Spirit of America". You like alot of folks in this country who want to continue the divide, need to put yourself in Barack's place with the Jeremiah Wright controversy – would you want to be a part of something that continues to divide these "yet to be United States?"

cywbenz of Philly

Well looks like another republican will be in office. Didnt any of you americans learned your lesson from 2000?!?!? Thank god it is McCain. He is the best shot we got now.

Nothing against Obama but he is not experienced enough!!

Oh wait, most of the voters for Obama were still in grade school so they are right with him.....

Clinton has treated so unfairly!! But that's what we (women) take and it makes us stronger! So what next??

Congratulations Barack! You did it/We did it with God's help!

Booking hotel rooms in DC soon!

I LOVE YOU MAN!!!! WE COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER NOMINEE. HE IS A WONDERFUL MAN AND I HOPE HE GOES ALL THE WAY!

Congratulations to the media for getting their man nominated.

Congratulations to You; But no Hillary in the TICKET...!!!

To: Spirit of America Obama didn't throw Jeremiah Wright thru his self under the bus.

Thank You For Being Truly Humble Mr. President!

Humbled indeed. More Like a you know what eating grin that he, the DNC, and the Media successfully robbed Hillary Clinton of the Candidacy. This man is a racist, a threat to some of our most sacred Constitutional Ammendments, our troops, and he is not acceptable to any Latino's I know, even most of the Illegal ones. In fact, I don't know one of 'mia Jenta' who supports or will vote for this Manchurian candidate, and all the DNC has accomplished is to make sure we all vote for Senator McCain.

He is not now, nor will he ever be a member of my people, my America, much less my President.

Congrats to Obama. I can smell the White House for you and
your Family. I wish everyone would stop talking about Hillary
being VP bad idea. The Clinton is a Time Bomb ready to explode. Hillary its over now Obama 08

It's time for America to move forward. We must leave generations of hurt, discrimination, and slights behind us. We cannot forget they occurred, but we must be determined that our future will be different. This primary was an enormous step in the right direction, proving that any American, no matter the racial background or gender, can work hard and employ effort and determination to achieve their goals, no matter how high they aspire.

FINALLY.

Oh, and go away Hillary! No VP spot for you...go lookin' elsewhere!

I blame Hillary the way she ran her campaign from the beggining. She wasn't for people. The media was doing the job for her. Nonetheless, I am one of the women that was supporting her and she has let us down. I am going to support our nominee now.
I look forward to President Obama!

It is a sad day... how can seventeen million people be so wrong. It amazes me. How they can select an unproven candidate over the experience and judgement that Clinton brings to the table. God help us.

"For whoever EXALTS himself will be HUMBLED, and whoever HUMBLES himself will be EXALTED." (Matthew 23:12)

My wife and I watched the pathetic speech by McSame (somebody in his campaign must have told him to smile a lot...very awkward) and then the brilliance of Obama with his electrifying speech. That's who I want to hear and see for the next 4-8 years, not GW term #3.

This shows the HUGE difference between Barack and Hillary:

Barack Obama = HUMILITY and How can WE bring the country together
Hillary Clinton = EGO and What Have yYOU Done for ME Lately?? ..

The TOP 3 Democratic Leaders to have a meeting with Her and TELL HER POINT BLANK!! This election was NOT about HER!! And if she continues on the path she is on there will BE SEROIUS CONSQUENCES THAT SHE WON'T LIKE!! The process has run it's course and she LOST IT!!

Congratulations, Mr Obama.
Up to the White House
We expect you to be the 44th President of the United States
The world needs you
Thanks for all the hope you bring

JP

What a cool guy. I do believe the Dem Party and it's people picked the right person for the job.

I wonder if Hillary's going to be gracious, or will she keep trying to throw him under the bus?

Humility, something that has been completely lacking of the White House for the past 8 years. – What a breath of fresh air.

Congratulations Obama. You are the one for the job and you are up to the job. America is supporting you all the way to DC.

Africa Congratulates you, Mr. Obama!!

Congrats Barack. Now on the the white house.
Time to water the dirt instead of the flower.

This guy is a joke
a total quack
nothing but left wing propaganda

Mcain will be our next pres !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Senator Obama please choose a vp that has been respectful of you and this party. Give Hilliary and Bill some other job.

Yes...Marilyn...we echo those sentiments

We WILL do this WITHOUT Hillary OR her supporters! They weren't going to vote for him anyway.

Si se puede!

YES WE CAN!!!!!!!

Congratulations.. Barack....Your victory is indeed a testimony for all who want to pursue things with honesty and humility.

God Bless..

Do the research in Illinois we are one of the worst states financially, along with huge political coruption and yet everyone thinks he is great. Do some research and I think you will be surprised at what you see.

My family and I loves you Mr. President. Thank you for being our voice

I always dreamed on that historical day the Abraham Lincoln and JFK were nominated to run for the highest honor. I just cannot stop believing that me and my children are part of such a day and I am just hopeful once again that our country and the world will be a better place once again

Go OBAMA '08

I'm very excited for Barack and all of America. We all need to unite and take back our country. We are all adults, if Hillary won, she would have my support. Furthermore, please cease this vote for McCain nonsense.

I've followed your campaign diligently for the last 16 months and I must say that you've impressed me with your level of humility, integrity, humbleness, leadership, and your rejection of smearing your opponents......Americans along with the rest of the world is proud of ur accomplishments thus far....you're mid-way in the race to the white house and we'll continue to be behind u alll the way!! Congrats Mr.Obama...it's OUR honour to have u as the nominee to the democratic party!! Much love...

Spirit of America-You sound so bitter.

I just read thru the whole ticker and its all Obama, one on McCain and a couple of references to him in Obama articles. Come on CNN, you did this to Clinton now youre doing it to McCain. Quit being so biased.
There won't be an uprising if you print all the news fairly.

Congratulations Obama -

May God continue to lead you and guide you through all this is to come. I pray his peace will continue be your strength. Obama let your light so shine that many may see your good works and glorify your Heavenly Father. Let is so shine that those who are against you make not only began to see the hope the Father is trying to give but may ask what must I do to be saved.

God Bless You and your family!

A prayer for Obama.......Dear lord, as he come before you, I ask for you to guide him. I ask for your blessing, give him strengh, lord.give him wisdom, knowlege and understanding as he prepare to lead this great nation into the 21st century. I know there will be obstacle in his way but with you by his side he will over come.

Lord it was your choice for this man to be were he is today and he will carry out his duties to the fullest.

I will not surprise if Cuba become a democratic nation under his presidency nor will I if the leaders of Iran bow down before him and give up their nuclear ambition. I foresee a better America and a better world in the future. I pray to you in Jesue name.....Amen

My teenagers stayed up last night to see history for themselves.
It was a humbling moment for us all.
Hillary and John Mccain tried to spoil that with their nonsense,but it was what it was (snakes spewing out venom).
I have a daughter and while hillary was the first woman to make it this far I hope she NEVER cites HIllary as one her role models due to her behavior in this entire process. Especially since she won't evev acknowledge OBAMAS historic triumph.
I am humbled for Barack OBAMA I am happy and I wish him the best in this election,and may God BLESS HIM in every thing that comes his way.
We only get something like this once in a generation,and it will be Barack OBAMA.

Obama is a great and humble man, and its to bad the same can't be said for Sen. Clinton. She lost fair and square and was wrong not to respect Obama at this historic moment. At this point there is no reason for her not conceed, and it set a bad tone toward unity for the party. He should make an independent choice for V.P. however I don't think it should be Sen. Clinton.

Congratulations Brak Obama... you did it... AND I AM SURE IN NOVEMBER U WILL DO IT AGAIN... I TRUST U... U DESREVE ANY DOLLAR I SPENT IN UR CAMPAIGN.

I supported Hillary but now I am for Obama.
Thank you for breaking those barriers.
Mr. President.
I believe that even us white poor people can now have our kids master the plan and run for Office without money.
Thank you to MLK for having that dream!

Dear Senator Obama,

May God Bless and Keep you!
May He make his face to shine upon you and protect you and your family.
May He guide you and and give you the wisdom to make the best decisions to lead All Americans to a better future.

May the Peace of the Lord be with you always!

Luncheon Ladies.

I don't think Barak quite understands that he TOO has and continues to Knock Down barriers. Barak, you too are an inspiration of what we all can become as individuals and as a nation. Thank you and we'll see you in the White House.

Your friendly neighborhood Republican.

E-mail to Hillary Clinton:

Senator Clinton,

How please Senator McCain and the Republicans must be with your speech last evening , which continues to show your intent to destroy the Democratic Party by dividing voters and possibly giving the election to the Republicans. I have voted as a Republican all my adult life (46 years) but because of how the Bush administration and the Republican Party have ruined and bankrupt this country for the last eight years I am switching loyalties to the Democratic Party.

Your attempt these last few months, when you knew you had no chance of getting the nomination, has keep Senator Obama from campaigning solely against Senator McCain. You show NO concern for the party or the country but only you’re personal ambitions and egotism. Your actions reflect the very same outrageous actions the Republican Party have pursued in destroying this country these last eight years.

You’re aspiration, now that you lost the nomination for President, to force Senator Obama to choose you as his running mate reflects your arrogance and disregard for this Party and the people your continue to mislead. I trust the Democratic Party realizes that Senator Obama could never be able to lead this country with you as V.P. since you can not keep silent nor you husband. The news media would continue to find conflicts between you and President Obama so that little if any progress could be made in the next four years.

Since you did not choose to concede your candidacy nor seek harmony within the Party in your speech last night, as Senator Obama did, but defiantly ignore the Parties leadership, the Party Democrats in the Senate should black ball your future within the Senate and any future political aspirations you might have.

Senator Clinton, resign your campaign immediately and bring harmony to the Democratic Party or if you continue to run your egotistical campaign you will destroy both your credibility as a true Democrat and the chance for the Democratic Party to win the September election.

So Called Spirit of America!

You need to read Rev Wright did help knock down those doors to allow him to be there but he was one of many many strong leaders that made that charge none of them not one of those leaders was perfect then or now. His reason for cutting ties with him had to do with deep personal convictions and is none of the publics biz however in this country there are some Americans who think that they have the right to intrude upon and condemn everyone that trys to stand up and bring about positive change. How sad that people like you are around. This country is going to change for the better and you can sat by and hate on it or get involved with the common values we all share as Americans every notice you only focus on the negative and divisive. Never a positive post from you what a sad human being

Obama did not throw the Reverend W "under a bus." He distanced himself from some of his more inflammatory comments. He only divorced, as it were, after W attacked him in a rather bizarre performance. And he distanced himself from Pfleger after Pfleger attacked _Hillary_, Obama's opponent, in - let's be serious here - what was a rather mild if rather inane parody of her NH tears. I've found his conduct impeccable in these matters.

Congratulation Obama!, Congratulation Obama!!, Congratulation Obama!!!, Congratulation Obama!!!! We have one more race to win and we shall reach the mountain top! Congratulation once again!

Our President Obama 08’ & 12’

GREETINGS,

BOB JOHNSON AND ALL ELSE BEHIND THIS MADNESS. PLEASE EXAMINE YOUR THOUGHTS YOU WERE WRONG WHEN YOU SAID SEN CLINTON WOULD WIN OVER SEN OBAMA, AND YOU ARE WRONG NOW. KEEP YOUR THOUGHTS TO YOURSELF. YOUR CANDIDATE HAS NOT EVEN GIVEN SEN OBAMA RESPECT. YOU WOULD NOT INVITE YOUR ENEMY IN YOUR HOUSE TO EAT WITH YOU, SO WHY SHOULD HE. THE WOMAN IS SO ARROGANT SHE IS PATHETIC. SEN CLINTON SHOULD GO TO CHURCH LIE ON THE ALTAR AND REPENT FOR HER UNGODLY BEHAVIOR.
"READ THE BIBLICAL COUNT OF KING SAUL AND KING DAVID. SAUL WAS APOINTED BY THE PEOPLE, KING DAVID WAS ANOINTED BY GOD. YOU ASK GOD FOR WISDOM

GRACE AND PEACE

Congratulations ! Mr next President of United States

Jamie, you comment said it best.

Obama is my JFK too.

I'm so intrigued by this candidate and it seems that the entire world is too!

All the way to the WHITE HOUSE! Obama '08

OBAMA 2008!! I LOVE OBAMA AND WHAT HE STANDS FOR IS THE REASON I VOTED FOR HIM. IT SHOWS THAT HATRED NEVER WINS!!
OBAMA RAN A SUPERB CAMPAIGN AND I RESPECT HIM DEARLY. IT IS TIME THAT PEOPLE LEAVE PREJUDICENESS THOUGHTS TO POSITIVE MOTIVATION. WE HAVE ALL COME A LONG WAY!!

YES WE CAN!! ITS TIME FOR A CHANGE PEOPLE!! ITS UP TO US TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. NO MORE NEGATIVE ATTITUDES. YOU KNOW THAT HE IS BETTER AND CAN BEAT JOHN MCCAIN!!

I have to admit, last night was a very exciting moment in our history. It was an emotional one for many of Americans and I am proud to say that I am so proud of what both Obama and Hillary have accomplished. God Bless America!

That speech last night had me almost in tears.. Cant wait for his acceptance speech

What a profound achievement!

Obama 08

OBAMA the gloves should be off now and send grandpa MCsame home the white house is not for retire but for vivid, active and brillant American, YOU.
God bless YOU OBAMA

As a Democrat adn supporter of Clinton, I will noe cross party lines and vote for McCain. Will need a political savy insider to bring this ciuntry back from the brink..

Not some idealist, that wants to sitdown and talk with countries like Cuba and Iran. He needs to understand these countries only understand a big stick method. Either the USa way or the HIghway.

Spirit of America,

Quite frankly Jeremiah Wright was one of those persons, he just happend to go to far and focused on what was bad more that what it could be.

But don't worry Sprite of America, Senator Obama will be your president also, unless you are planning on leaving.

Well, he won the nominiation but he's in trouble – look at the electoral college. The question isn't whether he asks Hillary, but how he gets her on the ticket. The only states that matter are OH, FL, PA, MI, NJ.

Who chose McCain's campaign color!? yea-ch (decadent green?)
That is something he SHOULD flip flop on!
----
Now, is the time!
Now, is the time!
Now, is the time!

Even though this primary was fixed by the media and the democratic leadership committee it is good to hear him say " it is humbling" . W hen he loses the general election in November , which he will, I would like to hear him say , i am still humbled to have been given the opportunity even though I lost. My bet is on the side that him and all his supporters will raise hell and say how racist america is and they were cheated. Then he will run back to Trinity church and again show his true colors.

This is a God sent Man.........Congradulation and may continue to bless you and you family. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA '08

It was pretty overwhelming for a lot of family, friends and coworkers that I spoke with last evening...Here is a leader than is born in our generation and symbolizes the fruits of the labor of the civil rights movement. Based on his mixed heritage, he is the embodiment of the American dream and can not be merely dismissed based on political talking points and catch phrases thrown around by his detractors...

Wonderful!! Obama all the way!!

Finally, the world will see our nation in a different light.

Can happen ONLY in USA. Thanks to the people of United States of America.

Congratulations, Barack Obama, a well deserved victory! Your grace and sincerity came through in your speech last night.
Clinton's, in sharp contrast, was narcissistic and defiant, and showed that she would be a poor choice for VP.

God bless America! God bless Obama!

Give me a break. People are still talking about Rev. Wright? Over 8,000 people are members of that church, and I doubt very seriously if EVERY sermon reflected the overly used sound bites we all saw. They wouldn't have sustained those congregant numbers if he had anyway. Besides, for every one of those sound bites, I'd bet 25 dealt with things of a Biblical nature.

HEAR THE WORDS

TRUE President

This has been without question or exception the most exciting politcal event of my entire life – and I'm not even American. I still get gosse bumps replaying Obama's speach in my mind.

Two GREAT lines that I will never forget: (paraphrased)

>.. I honor his achievments while be belittles mine...

... will not use religeon ans a wedge nor patriotism as a bludgeon...

WOW

Clinton and MCcain accuse Obama of offering nothing but pretty speaches but, you know, Speaches motivate , speaches galvanises, speaches unite disparate groups into actions that can change the world.

Congrats Senator Obama, you inspire us all. Your humility is something that illuminates the world. You are being praised world wide. You have followers in Asia, Europe, Africa and the reset of the world. You are the hope for the rest of the world. You have that international appeal. The rest of the world sees you as a well educated, well traveled eloquent gentleman.
We are proud of you!

Congratulations!

Now, really seal the deal, and offer the VP to Hillary! What a dynamite, ticket that will be! You go together like a hand in a glove!

oh, "Spirit of America," what a mean lil person you are. Buck-up, lil trooper!

A great humble man. He will make a wonderful leader. I will be proud to call him my President.

Well said, Mr. President!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Not only did you win the nomination Obama, but you did it with respect,
grace, and dignity.

YES WE CAN!!!
OBAMA 08!!

Proud of America once again. If it was Hillary, I would have considered applying for citizenship. If it's McCain, I am going back to my homeland. If it's Obama, I am positive about being a future American Citizen.

- GOBAMA -

Senator Obama , Thanks. you make me proud and you challenge me to do better. May The God of our ancestors: Nzakomba, Mungu, Akongo, Nzampa, Anti, bless you and protect you.. Thank you. The DR Congo love you and support you.

Obama is full of bull and this will become more apparent as the pep rallies disperse and he has to really show what he's made of besides a bunch of wooing words. How can you advance the cause of Blacks while shafting the cause of women? A house divided will not stand and unless Clinton is on the ticket. Obama can kiss my vote good-bye.

Dear Mr. President OBAMA

Congrats to you and your beginning to CHANGE. As a young black woman I am greatful to experience this moment of change with you. My friends and I understand that this is not about race, its about everyone being 1. This is one day I am truly pround to be an American. I am happy that individuals have opened their minds and are wanting and willing to embrace change. We thank you soooooooooo much in our homes, and our hoods(this really brings tears to my eyes) that you as a 46yr old, black man have given us hope. My BROTHERS and our CHILDREN now know that if they believe they can acheive!!! BARACK our BLACK MEN needed this and we cant thank you enough!! WE LOVE U BARACK OBAMA!!!

It was trulu an honor to witness history in the making last night when senator Obama gave such an eloquent, unselfish speech. It is a true testimony to his character. He was very motivating and electrifying, and most of all very very aristocratic/dubonair in contrast to his competitor. I am a registered republican for democrats in this upcoming election.

Congratulations Senator Obama for running a good campaign AND WINNING IT.

Humility thy name is Obama.

To "Spirit of America" – the answer is YES. Rev. Wright was one of the people who knocked down barriers for ALL of us. We don't have to like how he presents himself, but, he is a barrier breaker. Accept it for what it is. There are people in each of our lives who falls into the same category as Rev. Wright.

Whenever he speaks, tears fill my eyes. He is very humble. Thanks Obama.

This is a great day. Not only because an African American has acquired the nomination, but because he was able to overcome an unethical, win at all costs, egomaniac who tried to destroy you. And her supporters backed her regardless of her tactics.

It is a good day because hopefully we have heard the last of the Clintons.

What a wonderful historic occasion this has been. Obama is a gift to us and our future as a nation! Blessings to him! As I understand, that is actually what the name Barrack means, "blessings."

Congratulations Senator, We are behind you 100%. YES WE CAN

I am so proud....so proud!

WONDERFUL! News papers, call in radio shows, tv shows ALL AROUND THE WORLD are reporting this news. People are ready to start standing with the USA again! I pray voters are smart enough to see the goodness.

Was/is one of those persons who knocked barriers Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the man Obama threw under the bus for political expediency?
*********************
Its so sad people like "Spirit of Hate and Resentment" can only repeat the words of their favorite pundit Mr. "Dem / Lib" hater – Shanne Hannasty of Faux

As I watched history unfold last night, the tears filled my eyes! I sat in amazement. This Senator from Illinois who happened to be African American, clinched the democratic nomination for the presidency. Being African American myself, my heart is overjoyed and full of hope! If only Dr. King could see. . . his dream, in a tremendous way, has come to fruition!

America in large does not really care that a black man has the possibility of becoming President , remember how far this country has come since the days of slavery , it's expected that at one point in history a black man could be president and in all fairness a women as well could be the leader of our nation , only in a democratic nation and only in America could their be such an opportunity . It will be what a leader will do by way of action for the betterment of a county that matters the most always in the End. As far as being humble , no Obama is in no way humble , he just says he is.

Yeah...good luck with that. Sad for this great nation that you people can't see past the ends of your own noses. Before you continue patting yourselves on the back and congratulating yourselves, take a moment and know this...John McCain will now be the next POTUS. Congratulations. Nice work.

You are the one for us to make a better America. We will unite, but it should takes some approach from Hillary as well.

Obama 08

To walk with kings, and yet not lose the common touch (Rudyard Kipling). Barack Obama is truly a MAN FOR ALL SEASONS!

The USA is lucky to have such a man dedicated to Public Service.

Mike in Canada

When The LORD say YES, no one can say no.

May God's grace, mercy and love continue to surround Senator Obama and his family.

Whatever Barack Obama does, he should NOT allow Hillary Clinton to weasel her way onto the ticket as VP.

She would try to undermine him at every turn. In spite of what she says about wanting to do what is best for the country and party, she is pushing her own agenda – which is Hillary First.

Hillary was all about "What Hillary wants" in her speech last night. Not about the country or the party. A Barack/Hillary ticket would be a nightmare.

give me a break. John McCain will trounce Barack in the general election. You people are living in a fairytale!!!!

Congratulations good job

Congratulations Mr President...and may God bless you always!!

WE DID IT!!!

Umm, He is not President yet. Remember, don't count your chickens before they hatch. People said that about Al Gore and Kerry as well and we know what happened to them. Personally, there is no way I can bring myself to vote for Obama. He has shown me no real patriotism, he has a lot of big words with no actions backing them up and from listening to him it scares me about what he will do in Iraq. I personally believe he will make it into another veitnam. He will cave into the peer pressure of people here and withdraw, leaving a mess of indignation over there and destroying all our military has fought and suffered for. And dont you go saying I have no idea, my brother served over there and he had experiences I have no desire to have. But he agrees as well as I that to withdraw completely right now would be more dishonor to our troops than anything else we could do to them. So for me, obama is the greater of the two evils right now.

God Bless you and your family Mr. Obama. I look forward to voting for you in November, and wathcing your inauguration in January.

You need no one but God to get you there. He definitely has a plan for you.

Congratulations, Sen, Obama. As a staff volunteer, I was fortunate to meet him recently and got a hug. What you see is what he is - a gracious, decent human being, schollar, and brilliant leader.

I love the job you've done. I will do everything in my power to help you future President of the U.S. of America. But one thing, no Hillary PLEASE!!!!!!

Congratulations President Obama. You have won. Now please show your sound judgment by picking your own VP. Do not start out being black mailed. IF you want Hillary so be it!

Sure the guys pretty but let the talk on issues and not himself (his favorite subject) begin. lets see the proof he can run a country!!!!!!! this is his first real win for a shot at getting elected for a position and its still somewhat questionable...........Now he has to really prove himself states like Montana are not a sure win there are many more like SD.

Congrats Obama you ran a splendid campaign!!! Next stop WHITE HOUSE!!!

CNN YOU BETTER PUBLISH THIS

Nobama! 18 million Demorcats across this nation said so! Why? Too many unanswered questions. This is not about race or religion, only the weak minded and mean spirited boil it down to that; it is about who is able to make the weighty decisions the next President must face. Global Warming, War, Economic "downturn," Oil, Commodities, Health, Fresh Water, many issues spanning the global community await our next president. Obama simply is not experienced and has not proven his patriotism. The DNC picked the weaker candidate, giving unearned votes to Obama. Who is David and who is Goliath? Nobama!

Should be VERY humble.

No mandate.

A mear squeak of a win

And he doesn't need H.R.C. as V.P. to win in November!!!

After he wins though is when I want to see the man in action. GO OBAMA....God bless you and your family!

may God bless America for this historic moment and this shows the world that black,white,green,or yellow does not matter,with dedication and hard work,we all can triumph.

congratulation president obama.

Congratulations Senator Obama. In spite of what the naysayers and haters had to say, you persevered and you will win the Presidency because if God is for you he is more than the whole world against you!

The greatest part of his speech last night was when he dedicated his nomination to his grandmother who gave him his strength, vision, and support. Thank you Barack Obama.

Obama doesn't have a humble bone in his body. His arrogance exudes from him like a cheap cologne.

If Obama manages to get elected, be prepared for 4 years of disaster. Obama's "Change" is the same old socialsim, repackaged with flowery rhetoric.

A true statesman, because he believes in us. He believes in everything that's good about our country and the people in it.

JKF ?? Could you possibly mean JFK??
This is what worries me the most about
jumping on the winning 'Obama Train' -
people vote like sheep – and don't educate
themselves. This is too important to just
'go with the flow'... it's media-driven- and scary
Remember -he is a politician – who went to
a church for 20 yrs – same pastor the whole
time – and yet now- all of a sudden he doesn't
agree with his pastor's views...???? How
convenient.

The right person has been crowned the victor. Hillary, if it's in you at all, be a decent human being and accept your defeat. Congratulate your opponent because he ran a better campaign than you, beacuse its foundation was inspiration, change and hope, whereas the foundation of your campaign was lies, deceit, and a complete lack of ethics.

Congratulations Mr. President, we're all very proud of and rooting for you!

This is the most exciting thing that has happened in my 36 rs on this earth!
Thank God young people are not like those of old.
No offene to anyone, it is just refreshing that people are changing for the better.

GO OBAMA!!!

FIRED UP!

READY TO GO!

For the one that calls himself or herself Spirit of America on this blog- Please, get a life and get off that Jeremiah Wright issue. The Rev threw himself under the bus. He does not need help from anybody to do that.

This is historic moment in the life of our country and we don't need that kind of talk on this day.

...just an empty suit...!!!

Blah, Blah, Blah...

Go McCain!!!!

More than 50% of the democrats say otherwise.
No win.
No mandate.
Fixed outcome.

YES WE CAN!!

OBAMA '08

MAY GOD TRULY BLESS YOU

08= NEW BEGINNINGS

THIS IS YOUR YEAR OBAMA!

Barrack Obama Will Not have my vote without Hilary Clinton on the ticket. I am a 42 year old latino woman. No Clinton no Obama.

Democrats stand up and UNITE!

Obama '08!

Congradulation. I pray God will direct every step of your ways give you wisdom and for those who works around you, thanks for your humble character.

I'm so happy!

I love you all.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! I am so proud. God bless you, Barack!

My sons (8 y.o) are very happy and they understand what is going on. They are a future of the USA. Lets do it together for them.

OBAMA 08

I wish that stupid Bob Johnson and others would just sit down and relax. Senator Obama hasn't had a chance to breathe without them already shoving Hillary down his throat.

Spirit of America June 4th, 2008 1:03 pm ET

Was/is one of those persons who knocked barriers Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the man Obama threw under the bus for political expediency?
_____________________________________________________

What a moron you are!

He did NOT "throw Rev. Wright under the bus" for political expediancey. Rev. Wright acknowledged many of the problems that America has had over the course of his life (Folks you could understand why blacks thought AIDS was loosed on them by the government if you had any knowledge about the government and the "Tuskeegee experiment") he pointed out that MANY of the problems in the middle east can be traced back to things WE DID there (we put Saddam in power, we put the Taliban in power, we ARMED Al-Queda, we put the Iranian leadership in power, it is HISTORY FOLKS LOOK IT UP!) However, when the reverand Wright stood up and attacked Obama for daring to question his views. Obama dropped him, in other words, the FACTS Wright was spouting were accurate and worth defending, but the attack on obama, and the lack of ability on Rev Wrights part to admit that he could ahve overstated the problems, were sufficient for Obama to say ENOUGH!

Not thrown under the bus for political expediancy but dropped because he could not come into the 21st century but could only cling to the hatreds of his past. Much like those who will be "dropped" from the democratic party because they are stuck in the past and cannot make it to the 21st century.

I have been anxiously hoping to see headlines such as these since before the announcement was made in Illinois over 16 months ago. Congratulations Obama!

Democrats '08.

Gracious, humble, and sincere. So, contrast that to Hillary: dishonest, narcissistic, extortionist, blackmailing, egomaniac, dillusional, ungrateful.

Who do you want running the country?

Congratulations Obama to a well deserved win..... we love you here in Frisco, Texas!!!!!

Words like humble, honor and down to earth keep coming up in conversations with and about Senator Barack Obama. To be clear, he is not a perfect man but I do think he is a good and kind man who happens to be smart and strong at the same time.

I also believe that Senator McCain is a good and kind man. Also seems down to earth.

It's their policies that will make or break the election.

But for now, Senator Obama we (The AFAM community) are so proud we could just bust... Never in my 51 years did I expect to see this happen. Congratulations my brother...

Funny how in his victory speach last night, he spoke so highly of his grandmother for rasing him when 2 and a 1/2 months ago he called her "a typical white person". This guy is nothing more than a liar and a fraud. If he does in fact get the White House, the USA will be a scary place...Well, if Obama, Hillary, or McCain get the White House the USA will be a scary place...how did this country end up with 3 horrible presidental candidates

I fear for the US and the world if he becomes president.

Go Obama!
"Fire it up!"

Thank you U.S.A!

As an American and Proud to be one, I Salute you Sir

You are my HERO

Good Bless the Obama Family

It's a new day in America!

Now if only the people had actually voted for him.

That would be a winner.

America even feels different right now ... that is good. Thank you Senator Obama for having the courage. Job well done – now the hard part!!

Obama is not humble. He stole the nomination from Hillary. See the explanation below to believe it Obama Supporters!!!

Obama brain washed superdelegates or they are sexists they didn't do the electrol map math but did the pledged delegates Math. Not enough Not henough to win the white house.

Superdelegates cannot do the map math or they might have kept their brains else where. we cannot win in Nov by pledged delegate math we want the Map math to win back the white house.

Go Hillary 2009-2016!!! Don't conede. American people need you. We 100% know that you are a better and a stronger candidate to win the white house. We ordinary American people can do the electrol map not the superdelegates what a shame!!!!

I am an African American FEMALE with two daughters and I would have been proud to have either candidate win. Let's unite and beat the Republicans.

Democrats 08

God Bless you Sen. Obama. You came from out of nowhere and you beat the big machine. You are an inspiration to all of us. We look for hope in you, for our country. You have a heavy burdon to bare when you become our president. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Phillis B.

Obama never try to do dirty tricks on Clintons. He never try bring up their baggage and mess on the media spotlight.
I just love him.
I hope the right wing media will stop stooping too low going to Chicago to uproot anything dirty on Obama. He is a man of character and I expect him to be imperfect.
I truly believe he will once a lifetime leader!

Tell me again.
what made him qualified?

where is his resume?

How did he win?

Cheating is not winning.

You are a Humble man , Mr. Obama.
Be aware of the witch around you now.
OBAMA / AL GORE 2008

President Obama!!!!!!

Vp ....... ?????

DEMOCRATS 08!!!!!!!

UNITED WE STAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One contest down. One to go. Congratulations Senator Obama and Mrs. Obama. Enjoy your victory. Your Humble Prayer Warrior.

God Bless you President Obama. I am so overwhelmed with joy right now and I know that I will forever remember where I was the moment you won the Democratic nomination for President of the United States.

Now let's kick some republican butt!

I really think most of Obama's 17 million voters have isolated themselves from the politics of our country, way too much to the left, you can't win with that

Obama is not humble. He stole the nomination from Hillary. See the explanation below to believe it Obama Supporters!!!

Obama brain washed superdelegates or they are sexists they didn't do the electrol map math but did the pledged delegates Math. Not enough Not henough to win the white house.

Could we be lucky enough to get this man for President? Dare I get my hopes up?

But if you ask Hillary, IT IS ALL ABOUT HILLARY!!!!

Such a phony man can rise this quick and this soon due to the corruption in the democratic party.

Thank you OBAMA and EVERYONE who has contributed to his campaigne. I CAN'T WAIT to get paid so I can donate again!!!

PRESIDENT OBAMA!!!!! '08

Humbling indeed. You have earned and deserve this honor. You are a true American hero. You are what America is all about. You have made a difference in the lives of so many already, and you will be the next President of the United States of America!

God bless you, and God bless the United States of America.

Congratulations!!! Obama. I am impressed with the graceful way you handled your victory. Wtg.

God Bless you Obama! Congratulations! We'll work hard to get you in the White House by registering new voters to overtake Hillary's McCain supporters!!

YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!YES WE CAN!

Spirit of America – you should change your nickname. You are doing great disservice to the country. Because if YOU are the Spirit to America, then we are in big trouble.

Here's a suggestion – how about "Ghost of America" or something to that effect?

YES WE CAN YES WE CAN
YES WE DID YES WE DID
YES WE WILL YES WE WILL

I'm so proud to be an American.....

What an incredible honest man! He credits others with his success, and recognizes that he is the culmination of a legacy of struggle.

It is not all about him. Unusal in politics.

How refreshing.

From My bottom of my heart God bless America especially with those believed equality for all humankind.

....one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. The dream is alive and well for ALL Americans to reach the mountain top. See you there America.
Obama08 We,We,We not I,I,I as we heard in Hillarys speach.

Onward and forward, eh what.

Congratulations Sen. Obama on finally capturing the nomination. Many of us have put our faith in this counrty in you and I hope we can move this country together in the proper direction over the next 8 years!

OBAMA '08 +'12!!!!

Congratulations, Barak Obama!!!

We are so proud of you and the very clean, noble, and humble way you carry yourself – so fit to be the president of our great nation. You started as an underdog – "Barak who?" – and most of us thought you would not possibly come this far, even though we prayed hard for this day. But you still have a long, hard road ahead of you. And we are especially concerned about your safety. We pray that God surround you with His angels and protect you from all harm against evil. May the Lord bless you with His Power and Grace that you may be faithful to His Will and bring our nation into His Glory! Amen. Amen. Amen.

Don't forget operation chaos. I would make a wager that the main ones that said that they would vote for McCain are the majority of that group. That would be about 25 – 30%.(imo).
I have it on very good authority that (believe it or not) Idaho will go blue and vote for Obama in Nov. Yippee!!!! Please think about all of the open primaries and caucuses that Obama has won in usually red states, these can not be discounted.
Where I believe that Sen Clinton will do the most good for our party is in the Supreme Court, we need a fighter like her there to rain in what the current administration has done. And she could also put the hammer down with respect to the rights of us ordinary people.
Congrats Sen. Obama. Please think of the true Dems when making your decision, we want to turn the page. When asked my 84 grandmother if it should be a joint ticket, her comment surprised me, No way in hell (and she was a former Rep) but went on to say that the Supreme Court would be a great place for the fighter in Hillary.
On to the People's House @ 1600 in DC

Here's another Donation Mr. Obama. REMEMBER, NO HILLARY!

***************************************************************************
With due respects to Senator Obama for running a good campaign, despite needing four times the money and the title of "media darling" to win.

His supporters need to realize a few things... They have been rude and disrespectful to Senator Clinton therefore, rude to her supporters... What they are failing to realize is that HE NEEDS HER, SHE DOES NOT NEED HIM and we will NOT support him, which means, he will in fact not have enough votes to win in November...

I would start being a bit respectful if I were you...

***************************************************************************

some of the names mentioned earlier as possible vp mates, were intriging, including ms clinton; but to distant himself from the insider thing, mr. obama might consider a centrist business mogal, former presidents of corporations, chairman of the board type, with a track record of success, men or women who can handle "the buck stops here" approach; who..there are many, but is wall street ready for this person..

Congradulations to the democratic party for moving onto the next step. Now all we need to do is put Hilary on as vp on the ticket. It will guarantee as super stomp of the republicans. Everyone gets what they want. Hilary supporters get what they want and Obama supporters get what they want. Everyone is happy and they can share ideas since it turns out (not a really accepted idea in American anymore) that debating issues to determine the best set of variables provides a better solution to what I say goes.Together they can bring their ideas together and make the country stronger and have it return to the glory days.

You have got to respect this man. Barak Omaba. He knows he is in for a battle. The GOP will not go out quietly. Karl Rove is waiting to sling all his dirt and lies, hoping people will believe them. John McCain is a nasty fighter too. I can't stand him or Joe Liberman of Connecticut... War Mongers! The Clintons will not campaign with Barak if Hillary isn't the VP (big mistake to make her VP). Go Barak! You do not need the Clintons or anyone else. You have your own style and leadership qualities that place you mountains beyond them. I am proud to be an Obama supporter. We are finally going to have a leader for American in the 21st Century. Lots of us will be working for him without pay, because we love our Country and want to see it thrive and lead the world in peace and prosperity forever.

AMEN to BARACK OBAMA.

Obama is a GOD loving GOD fearing man.

We are EVIL for allowing ourselves to be fooled by McBush. Let us not be fooled by McSAME into staying in an EVIL WAR.

PLEASE VOTE OBAMA WHILE GOD STILL LOVES US!

Oh please. He and the DNC railroaded Hillary Clinton because people can't stand the idea of a woman being in charge. This guy is so unqualified, so inexperienced. Big deal that he can speak well. Just wait and see the republicans swift boat him right out of here.

»VICTORY!!...Congratulations great Senator Barack Obama. GOODBYE FAKE woman!!...VICTORY!!...

Obama's defeat in November by McCain will be his "real" humbling experience!!!

McCain in 2008

Way to go Obama. You deserve it. You played by the rules and thus won. Stay true to what you believe and bring it on home. I am truly proud of you.

I just love this guy. Genuinely sincere in every way. Way to go Barack.

»HURRAH!...HURRAH!...The GREAT Senator Barack Obama WON!...I knew it!...VICTORY!...Goodbye annoying Hillary"So Fake" Clinton!...Bye bye!!...(don´t comeback!) VICTORY!!...VICTOOOOORY!!

Only in his mind and the minds of his rabid hateful supporters did this man emerge the winner.

More than 50% of his own party WILL NOT vote for him

What a great moment in history in our 2008!!! Obama lets take on it to the White House!! We are behind you and we are registering new voters everyday!!

Enlightened Voter, senator Obama was in the Illinois Senate for 10 years! not four.

Spirit of America;

why dont u throw yourself under the bus with a Wright, a few facts:

1) He denounced wright and elequantly adressed the issue.
2) why dont you adress specific issue oriented faults instead of the character defamation used against him – lets discuss policy what McBush has to offer the suffer the Amrican populus or what Obama will accomplish. So RNC bring on your dirty ol politics and see whether the Americans who create a governement for the people and by the people wil tolerate it.
3) he will no doubt take us to a new history – American history – this is the greatest and blessed nation in the world. We are on the brink of losing that – but the thing with beiong blessed is that despite the circumtance – something will always come along and lift to you to where you need to be – Presedent Barack Obama

I just don't know how he could maintain that straight face of his last night! I mean ---- I smiled from ear to ear and laughed with such joy!

I love the fact that he includes all Americans and not just what he has done in his campaign. Even this morning... I woke up smiling!

There is no way I could have held myself up like he did last night!

He is going to be a great president and I can't wait!

Godd for you Obama. I think it is great that HRC has also paved the way for women to run – it no longer seems farfetched that a woman could be POTUS – it seems like it is only a matter of time.

I've been voting for presidents since the 1976 election. For the very first time, I'm excited and proud about the candidate who's getting my vote this November.

Please don't break our hearts, Obama. We need a president to believe in again.

Congratulations, Senator Obama! And thank you for your courage. We will do all we can to be worthy of your victory, and bring America back from the dismal slump it's been in for way too long!
It isn't about race or gender: it's about honesty and heart. Clearly you have both!
Shelagh

He's very right. I am a 42 y/o Black woman. In 5th grade, I wrote a paper saying I wanted to be the first Black Woman President. The white TA (not the head teacher) called my mother in for a parent conference. She told my mother that she was concerned that I would even think such a thing and that my mother should try to give me more realistic goals. I still have lofty goals, but I actually grew to believe I'd be almost gone before seeing this day. My 15 y/o son told me last night that he never thought it was actually impossible. This country is changing before our eyes. This is just awesome!

A truly humble candidate does not resort to dirty politics and the strategy of hate to divide the party and steal the nomination.

He won by cheating.

He is not the legitimate winner of this primary.

Leave HRC in the dust to suffer her karmic payback and move on. See if Edwards will run as VP and let's take on the GOP, or what's left of it.

»VICCCCCCCCCCCCTORY!!!....VICTORY!!...

Congratulations. We're supporting you since the very beginning of your campaign, and we'll go on until this 4th November election day.
We believe in you!

BARACK OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT

I hope now that this country can begin to put color aside and focus on a persons talents, education and personality and get rid of the racial divide that still exists today. Obama is an articulate man that I believe can change the way our country does politics. Congratulations to all the candidates on a hard fought and yet very entertaining primary season. It makes me proud to be part of a country that is still democratic after all these years.

If Hillary is your Veep, I'm voting for McCain. Don't be weak and let her bully you into anything! You won the nomination. She didn't.

»VICTORY!...VICTORY!...HURRAH !...The BEST candidate WON!...GOODBYE CLINTON(Don´t comeback!...)!...VICTORY!...V...VICTORY!...I knew it. HURRAH!...

Congratulations!!!!
Please just don't trust someone (HRC) who wants the presidency so badly... I beg you not to pick her as VP.

Be very careful, please!!!!

You don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out who will be the next president. McCain's rally could have been held in a telephone booth and his speech was no more than a prelude to the Republican slanderous propaganda with no real facts and a total lack of substance. The media keep hyping on the point the Democrats have problems uniting with hardly a mention of how bankrupt McCain's support is within the righteous right. Forget Hillary she's history focus on the McSame agenda.

CNN, please change your web page from Hillary. This is disrespectful of the accomplishments of the presumptive democratic candidate.......but that's what some people do, disregard the successes and potential of certain people who don't look like you.

Acting just like Hillary, arrogantly!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulation to Obama – My family and I cried last evening, we never ever though that this day would come about. Stay humble.

Senator Obama is a true gentleman. Even in the face of the horrible things thrown at him by the Clinton campaign, he almost always kept his dignity and never hit her with a low blow.

The best campaign won this nomination, not the least because of the high moral ground Senator Obama insisted on taking. Frankly, I think Senator Clinton made a huge strategic error in going negative, and it ultimately lost her the nomination.

She has to accept some of the blame for this, because ultimately she's the one that signed of on it. But there's not the slightest doubt in my mind that she was poorly served by her campaign.

As regards the VP, last night she chose continued confrontation rather than reconcilliation. If it were I, that would be the ultimate reason I'd reject her.

You should have graciously conceded, Hillary. It says a lot that you were far, far from gracious.

Note our friend "Spirit of America"....pointing out what he considers political expediency. I wonder what he calls McCain's flips on the Bush tax cuts, the comments about Falwell....."agents of intolerance", etc.
The number of flips and flops from McCain is legion.....stay tuned there are many more to come...as hs tries his hand at "political expediency".

Good luck to Senator Obama. However, I'm still for McCain.

Spirit of America

I doubt very much that the Rev. was thrown under the bus for political expediency. Get over it already.

It is now time to focus on the issues as this petty stuff is just swiftboating. Nice try though

Congratulations, Barack Obama. You will be talked about for generations to come.

ok, after seeing you guys vote bush in for 4 more years I honestly thought that the US didn't have what it takes to return to its former glory.

You've got a chance to stand for something now, instead of being scared. Embrace the change, and the change will embrace you.

Obama is only the messenger of the change the country needs. The real change comes from you.

Congratulations to Obama

I think that Hillary would of been a much better choice for President than Obama, I fully expected to see the Reverend Wright throw his arms around Obama and Michelle, mark my words this is going to happen as they will have a Great Forgiveness take place, and all will be forgotten and the public being the sponges they are will fall for it like they have the speeches Obama has given. God Bless America as I think we will need some outside help

Faker.

A truly humble man does not cheat to win... does not strong-arm his competition out of the race... does not disenfranchise voters.

No win by cheating.

I have followed politics closely all my life, and I've never seen such a brilliant, graceful, and charismatic politician such as Senator Barack Obama.

To: Obama Supporter In Iowa

Well said. You nailed it!!!

For the first time in my adult life, I'm actually proud to be an American..........I'm so proud of you Barack Obama you were a total gentleman last night, unlike you rival Mcsame ( does anyone else think he looks like the "crypt keeper")?.........

BARACK OBAMA 2008

Still talking about how he is going to change EVERYTHING... but will he ever ask how will I afford it? Thats right Obama YOU CANT you cant give everyone everything you say..

I'm voting for someone else.

6/3/2008 and 9:00 PM A moment that will be remembered forever

I love you Obama!

This is win/win for Hillary.

She should get the VP spot. If he denies it to her, then he will be defeated and she can run again in 2012.

Face it, Obamabots, you need her to put your candidate in office. If you expect 17 million of her voters to support your candidate, you'd better support us.

"It has been an honor to contest these primaries with him. It is an honor to call him my friend." - Hillary Clinton, today

It is a disgrace to her that so many of her avid supporters say they will vote for McCain. Without any doubt they are admitting that they don't trust her judgement, think she is lying, and doesn't care about the future of our country.

Congrad's obama i love you and your spirit it shines thru us all those of course with true hearts and souls.

"yes we can"

There is something happening when Americans who are young in age and in spirit – who have never before participated in politics – turn out in numbers we’ve never seen because they know in their hearts that this time must be different.
There is something happening when people vote not just for the party they belong to but the hopes they hold in common – that whether we are rich or poor; black or white; Latino or Asian; whether we hail from Iowa or New Hampshire, Nevada or South Carolina, we are ready to take this country in a fundamentally new direction. That is what’s happening in America right now. Change is what’s happening in America.
You can be the new majority who can lead this nation out of a long political darkness – Democrats, Independents and Republicans who are tired of the division and distraction that has clouded Washington; who know that we can disagree without being disagreeable; who understand that if we mobilize our voices to challenge the money and influence that’s stood in our way and challenge ourselves to reach for something better, there’s no problem we can’t solve – no destiny we cannot fulfill. We are the change we've been seeking.

Congratulations to Senator Obama and Senator Clinton. Both candidates ran historical campaigns. They should both be proud of how far they have made it. I hope Senator Obama can take the next step and become the first African-American to be elected President. I hope Senator Clinton finds a home in his administration. Although I don't agree with everything she says, she gets things done, and she proved to be a fighter during the primary season.

I don't think that it's God's hand on his shoulder. Whatever it is, it is not from God. God loves America. He does not condemn it.

Least qualified gets the nomination handed to him by the party with the full support of a biased media.

SAVOR THE N0MINATION OBO, THAT IS ALL YOU'LL GET.

Once again, the dem voteres have been proven to be wrong again to pick a loser as a dem nominee.

America may have finally grown up!

A true statesman. His speech last night, his demeanor throughout this campaign so far, has shown that he is a gentleman. He has been very supportive and complimentary of Ms. Clinton throughout the primary and, with few exceptions, has always shown himself to be above the personal attacks and gracious to her even when I felt he should be railing aginst her. he has quietly accepted all the lies and twisted truths from the Republicans and within his own party without the anger and, what I would call the righteous indignation, most others would, and have shown. I feel he is a GREAT STATESMAN and willbecome one of our GREATEST PRESIDENTS!!!

@Spirit of America....he very well may have been. It's interesting how people can easily pounce on the negatives of one man and make them overshawdow all the good that he has done, but the same people can't see the negatives in themselves, their family members, and own personal leaders.

He probably shouldn't get used to it. The electoral map doesn't favor him in November. It'll be truly priceless if he wins the popular vote and loses the electoral college, which I actually think is very likely to happen. He'll come a lot closer in the red states than Hillary ever would have, but he'll still lose them. He'll have blowout wins in true blue Dem states, but in the general it doesn't matter if you win by 2% or 20%. An then there's the issue of Ohio, PA and Florida. My bet is he loses all three (Ohio and PA by a close margin but Florida will be a blowout) and with it the presidency.

PRESIDENT OBAMA

you rock
you stole the glory of some people, but god you really won hearts of many. there fore you will prevail.
we love you and your beautiful family.

BARACK
THIS TOWN HALL MEETING JOHN WANTS IS A TRICK
HILLARY I AM SURE WOULD LOVE IT
IF HE CAN GET TO YOU FOR ONE MINUTE SHE CAN SAY YOU CAN'T BEAT HIM
look do this till dem. convention, hillary want quit, think about it. if you do this
kick his but good

CNN PLEASE POST THIS

Senator Obama: humble, magnanimous, gracious, honest, positive, and uplifting.

Mrs. Clinton: arrogant, petty, divisive, deceptive, negative, and destructive.

Looks like WE chose the right candidate.

OBAMA '08

These SD's don't even get to vote until the Convention. They are suppose to choose the best choice and clearly, someone stepped in and gave a great speal to lure them to promise a vote against the 18 million voters choice. And giving Texas 2 votes and MI and FL 1/2? PLEEEEEZ! The flaud caucus? These rules were made to steal the nomination, not protect it. I'm disgusted and changing my party to 'Independent'. I can not support a disenfranchising party. I have seen enough. Good Bye Democrats, I hope you join me Hillary.

Seems like Spirit of America has no spirit.

Congratulations Sen(Pres) Obama, I look forward to voting for you in November and witness you sworn in as President in Jan 2009.

Fire it up !

You haters give it up. Its people like you thats going to ruin O.B. in Nov.HRC has deserved a spot on the ticket. If it was turned around ,she would pick him.If O.B. knew how his supporters put hate on the Clintons and her supporters through this whole race,he wouldn't be happy. He is for unity ,and all you O.B. supporters just bring hate. We will never have unity ,because you haters have made it impossible to help O.B. We will vote MCCAIN .His supporters dont hate on anyone. They are more muture.O.B.'S young supporters are so immature,they know nothing about our country. There will not be unity.There is to much hate from you .Who ever O.B. picks for his VP. is his own business. If he picks HRC ,its because he knows they would be the best ,and unbeatable. So why dont you haters get a life and learn some respect,because you sure the didn't get taught very good by your parents.

am I the ONLY one who has seen the Huffington post article on Hillary where the Hillary camp says she wants the VP spot to be offerred to her so she can TURN IT DOWN!! Then goes on to say to the Obama Camp " And don't you DARE offer the VP post to ANOTHER WOMAN"

Cnn has been deleteing posts all morning about it.

CONGRATULATIONS PRESIDENT OBAMA.

May GOD bless and keep you and your family and everyone around you. May he light and direct your path always.

Obama '08!

Within minutes we should start hearing the Republican attack machine. They are very afraid of this guy.....he represents everything they are dead set against... such as honesty, integrity accountability, etc.

They don't really have anything on him other than the fact he's Africa-American. Pay attention and note the various codes and such they use to remind whitey.

Did you see the McBush speech last evening.......it was pathetic.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! MAY GOD GUIDE U THRU AS U LEAD THE WORLD.......AMEN

Umm Spirit of America,

If you think about it Hillary threw Rev. Wright under the bus too! When Monica was hiding in the closet they called Rev. Wright for prayer and NOW he would've NEVER been her pastor! How about when she threw the entire black race under the bus when she became a latino candidate and basically said that black people are voting for Obama because of his skin AFTER we elected her husband twice! Shall I continue?

Wow I'm still speachless. I had goose bumps all night from the historic event thats about to unfold . East west north south ,,man women children of all colors from all countries witnessed a new begining for not just AMERICA but for all the worlds people who are striving to live in peace ...Your in my prayers as are the people of my country

CONGRATULATIONS SENATOR OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOPE IS HERE TO STAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the dawn of a new day in the history of this great nation. It's truly an exciting time for the United States-not just for Americans but for all citizens around the globe!

Not even Hillary Clinton nor her hate-filled supporters can ruin this beautiful sunrise.

Well said, Mr. Obama....as an African American, I am numb right now. While I expected this to happen I am still in shock that it is fact occurring...Just a few more months to go and it will be even more humbling.

By the way, I'm a 55 year old white woman from Iowa. My parents (78 and 79) are avid supporters of Obama as well. I wish you would quit saying that older white women have a problem with him. You are not speaking for me or any of my friends and family.

I just can help but tear up every time I hear of the great historic moment. I'm just so happy I got a chance to experience this.

Obama '08

Just a note: It is scary the number of blogs that imply that if Obama wants to see his children grow up, he should not choose HRC as VP.

I agree it is somewhat scary how much HRC wants the presidency.
Just be careful!!!!!

He is a graceful, humbling human being.
God bless him!

Now wait till you lose to mccain. The only hope you have is hillary becoming part of your ticket. No kiss up to her and i would do it fast

I LOVE HIM!!!!! HE GIVES US HOPE I CAN'T HELP BUT TO FEEL A SENSE OF EMERGENCE AND HAPPINESS FOR THE COMING DAYS OF THIS ELECTION. LET'S GET AMERICA BACK ON TRACK ONCE AND FOR ALL.

LET ME HEAR IT

YES WE CAN

SHOUT IT TO THE MOUTAIN TOPS SO THAT OUR VOICES ARE HEARD.

Congratulations Senator Obama.

In one man we see a clear vision for change. Although the road will be long and hard...Surrender to no one because we believe in America!!!

Good luck to Senator Clinton and her supporters.
God Bless America.

Way to go Obama ....Dont let this woman Hillary get to you and dont compromise your principles.

Was/is one of those persons who knocked barriers Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the man Obama threw under the bus for political expediency?

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU MR. OBAMA. MAY GODS' HAND CONTINUE TO BE ON YOUR SHOULDER.

Congratulations President Obama

We are rooting and voting for you

I think Obama could have won this nomination even if he was green with purple polka dots. His personality shines like a much needed beacon for those of us who want things to get better in the USA. He stands head and shoulders, literally and figuratively, above all other candidates. I'm proud to be an American today.

Barak Obama is my JKF...

Love it! Way to go Obama!

Last night was great! History in the making!

I LOVE HIM!!!!! YOU CAN'T HELP BUT KEEP IN TUNE WITH IS MESSAGE HE GIVES US HOPE AND BRINGS US INTO THE LIGHT. WE ARE FINALLY EMERGING OUT OF THE DARK AGES. THE TIME IS NOW

YES WE CAN!!!!
YES WE CAN!!!!
YES WE CAN!!!!
YES WE CAN!!!!

The only thing that Hillary cares about is Hillary! It is all about Hillary. She once again showed that she lacks character and integrity to make the critical decision. She showed tonight that this election was about Hillary, not the Democratic Party, not her supporters and certainly not about the country. Hillary is truly pathetic!

Obama is a Harvard educated Constitutional Scholar. He did four years as an Illinois Senator and two years as US senator. Also he gave up a lucrative career to perform community service. He has written and co sponsered hundreds of bills. He also ran a brilliantly run campaign and managed to clinch the nomination as a relatively unknown by working very hard so Stop talking about his lack of so called experience. The ones with 'so called' experience got beat and made bad judgements to boot. BTW, what ever happend to the gas tax holiday?

Congratulations!!!

You did it!!!!!!!
