At an event at American University, the Kennedys speak of the leadership and character of Barack Obama, their choice for President of the United States. You should be with us in 2012: my.barackobama....
The phrase "the better angels of our nature" is taken from Lincoln's inauguration address. Ted is a truly gifted speaker, this is a pleasure to listen to (I'm on round three). YES WE CAN!
Wow. My traditionally conservative mom has always bashed Ted Kennedy, and being a kid who didn't watch much C-SPAN, I blindly wrote him off... but this man is TRULY inspiring, and his firey powerhouse of an endorsement of Obama literally got me teared up a bit. THIS is American spirit and positivity.
Ted Kennedys speech left me speechless what a great endorsement and seeing Caroline and Patrick up there just solidified the fact that a change is comming. Just one thought I wonder if the thought of a Kennedy for a vice presidential candidate would really finish off billary.
Memories! I hope my mom got to watch this, even tho' she is in her last stages of Alzheimer's I can hear her talking about how handsome Senator Kennedy is with his snow white hair. I even caught a bit of that Boston accent from JFK days. Great speech and love Patrick's enthusiasm also.
How about that. =) Now that's some very good news. This is not a passing of the torch, but a sharing of the torch. Bring us together as one nation, one people, heal the mistakes of our past and help us to our bright future. Fired Up !
Awesome speech. Obama is a great hope for the U.S. I like that he opposed the war in Iraq from the beginning. I hope he does something about global warming, too. It's a big concern to me of what might happen to planet earth if change doesn't happen soon. Barack Obama 2008. He will bring inspiration and bring hope. :)
This was a truly inspired speech given by a great man (Senator Ted Kennedy) who loves America and who has always fought for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. A speech that endorses Barack Obama, a man of great vision and even greater promise; a man who if given the chance can push us, the American people, to reach our full potential.
Why would you go and do a thing like that? I hope you have changed your mind. We are in a much bigger fight and we have to come together as one to fight it.
change? he still promotes WAR people! talk, talk, talk....sounds good right...but its only talk and We Americans blah blah blah promises, glory and honor..it goes on and on. C'mon people do the research....what is this "I best President ever" bullshit.....security my ass....promote peace and you will get peace!!! I beg you please open your mind to what Ron Paul has to say.
We miss you Teddy, you changed the earth with your wisdom, strength, and love for all of humanity.
Wow. That was just thunderous. I wish I could have been there.
JFK still lived through his bro its kind of nostalgic

That was very noble of Senator Kennedy to go and support him like this.
Obama 08!

The very best part is 16:00 - 16:20. That giddy grin and the look over to Obama. AWESOME!

The old lion still roars.
I'm fired up! Ready to go!
Great speech!
Good speech. It's fun to watch the people behind him.
The Lion of the Senate! Gotta LOVE him!!
Healthcare for all should pass, if not for us Americans, but in honor of the 45 year fight for healthcare by Senator Kennedy! Long overdue!
About 90% of the crowd probably didn't catch the reference to "rendezvous with destiny".
Thanks Teddy.
