      Wow, you folks are really on-topic.

      It’s serious address to a policy discussion group, not a press conference, or public address. Dry, I know; but this is what goes on outside the media circus.

      Mr. Obama, you are a fraud, and a good speaker with TelePrompTers only. People are waking up, and will not stand for your tyranny.

      Our forefathers …
      Our forefathers founded a democratic nation that would invite all walks of life to equally experience opportunity. The mistake they made was not outlawing slavery immediately. It was lack of foresight on their part. It ended After 100 years of the amoral outmoded practice using natives of Africa as slaves. What this did was taint the perspective of the African immigrant of this land, and permit an unfair perception of Africans. If our founding fathers could, they’d apologize for this injustice.

      Interesting …
      Interesting concepts talked about in this video. Other than the fluff, it seems he’s encouraging some changes to occur in cities (outside his control) that may help people greatly. Until we have more information, we can’t really speak of this negatively.

      As you say, Sweden has “done something”, and look where it has gotten you. A complete welfare state, supporting most of the mid east. We do not want to have the government in every aspect of our lives, as you do. That is why we came here! Freedom and Liberty is something a marxist, like chairman obama hates. He should care as much about the people HERE, and stop apologizing for the fine land America IS!

      so no one’s gonna point out that one of his teleprompter screens fell?

      I’m not someone who believes in that stupid “teleprompter argument” that republicans and conservatives spew out, but I do think that was kind of funny lol

      independency is not an existing word.

      And there is no change at all. It is more of the same big government merging with big business aka Fascism.

      Wake up people!!! We the poor majority are being raped by the opulent few.

      Considering how he takes every opportunity to uptalk his nation, you do have to realize that your claim doesn’t make much sense even to begin with.
      Maybe his way is not the best way. But just as our current government here in Sweden has shown time and time again the last few years, it’s better to do something than just sit around with your head up your ass.
      And what’s up with all this whining about the teleprompter?
