I am sure the interview was good as President Barrack Obama is a very intelligent man and so is Michelle. I will admit I did not have time to listen to all of it but I am praying for our president''s safety and God''s divine protection. You know his man mean "blessings have come to America" and many Americans are too hateful to receive the blessing from God.

I''ll admit'' I voted for McCain''..due to his experience. I''m not disppointed that Obama won the election. I pray the Lord guides him and his team to making America a better place. I pray for his safety, and making hard decision for this country.
I''m your average Amercian. I''m a business owner, a homeowner, we did need a fresh mind in power. I believe that anyone that was elected would have a touch road to hold.
God Bless America''...and for She stands for.

America has finally shown it Does Have a Brain after all. President Elect Obama is courageous for taking on this job at this time.....an extremely difficult one in these times.... I just hope that Obama can stop the fatcat bankers from bleeding us dry.....oh, wait...too late, we just spent $700 BILLION to bail them out. Unbelieveable. We subsidize oil companies who have been raping us for the last few years and making record profits..... Now the car manufacturers want $$ too....Step right up, who is next???? Where will it stop?? One Senator said just that, the answer was "when the money runs out?" Folks, that happened a LONG time ago......Can you speak Chinese?

I am a Canadian, and i sure wish i had Obama as our prime minister. My son who is 8 said so as well.
I must congratulate the president elect, he is very smart and eloquent. I also admire his wife Michelle and trully she is the rock of the family. I am praying earnestly for the safety of this family and that the Lord guide him in all his decisions he makes for the American people. The people have spoken and he is the right choice.
Mr Obama stay treu to yourself and true to God and you will be ok.I pray for God''s favour upon your life, for indeed you are ruling in tough economic times and you need the favour of the Almighty to be with you.

In the midst of an economy failing, our troops fighting terrorism, a global environmental crisis, etc., I have NEVER felt so comforted, calm, secure, hopeful, enlightened & empowered as I am now, listening to this wonderful man who will lead our country. His intelligence, honesty, integrity, endearing sense of humor, and don''t forget that smile! You can''t fake this stuff. God Bless Obama & his beautiful family.

Constructive feedback - I hope

I do not like the way you post videos, it takes a long time and the player isn''t great. I appreciate the fact you need to put ads in with the videos but can''t you just post the videos with the ads in youtube - it is so much simpler and less frustrating. It is also a pain to set-up a username and password to give you any input. There are also too many ads.

I appreciate the Obama coverage in the last few weeks.

Thank you
