•  Hope is back

  I've been gone a long while from dailykos and I've been very cynical about this country for a long time.

  I'm still wary of hope.

  This was a beautiful expression of hope.

  Thank you.

•  This is the News.

  MSM doesn't have a clue about America. This video and feeling of these young Americans is supposed to be the news. This is what needs to be analyzed by political analyst. The changing trend of our political process.

  But well who I am expecting from? What they want to talk and analuze is whose Reverand said what and who was under sniper fire and what they can spice up.

  Frustrating.

  •  So true!

    Cable news is doing a disservice and "hurting America" (to quote Jon Stewart) by their constant loops of 30 second videos of the latest scandal or outrage.

•  Great video

  Started watching and got hooked by the kids, their stories of how this campaign has made them more hopeful and energized.

  South Bronx,it's hard to express my joy, even wonderment, at the living expression of the Audacity of Hope. What an excellent teacher, no less than these marvelous young people deserve. Thanks so much for sharing this video.

•  Wow!

  Great teacher, great students, I needed 3 kleenex and am glad that I have donated $4,600 to the Obama campaign because YES WE CAN!

•  Thanks so much

  This video made me realize that I needed to talk to the younger kids about the election also. I've been saving all these conversations for adults. I have a 16 year old brother and I called him to find out if they are talking about the election and he said they even had a mock primary since they are too young to vote.  We need more teachers that will allow students to express their feelings like this.

  P.S.  Just so you know, the mock primary was won by Obama.  :)

•  Best thing I've seen in a long time

  Let's give our kids hope - and let's hope with them.  Then young and old can get out there and get done what's needs to get done.

  What a great story.  Seeing that film shows the potential of an Obama presidency. Inspirational indeed.
