Barack Obama, who has now clinched the Democratic nomination for president of the United States, making history by becoming the first Black man to do so. His course from the state house to the White House has taken him through a number of twists and turns, peaks and valleys; so now BET wants to take you on his journey and recall the most memorable moments of this unforgettable campaign. The half-hour special, produced by BET News, will be broadcast on BET Sunday, June 7, at 11 a.m. (ET).

The realist in me says that Obama will not ask Hillary to join the ticket. But the hopeful Democrat in me hopes he will put aside the nay-sayers and go for a TRULY courageous and ground-breaking choice. He would go down in history not only as the first African American president, but the first to include a female in the vice presidency and the first to offer his former opponent a place on the team - which is truly a way to change Washington and history. He needs her experience and depth of knowledge on policy issues.
Obama’s Top 10 Moments To The White House video is great! Obama’s lights been shining for a long time. God Bless You Barack Obama and I love You!
Ahhh Shhhhucks! Obama may be the next candidate to benefit from the Ah Shucks phenomena. There was Kennedy, who was given the benefit vote for being the underdog to Nixon. He was seen as a newcomer and just a kid with possibly a good heart and a bank account to match. Another was Clinton, who was willing to go the extra mile just to get recognized, in his bid for the oval office against a president who was seen as just a stand for Reagan (Mr. Bush). Senator Obama will have this effect given his obvious differences from his opponent. This phenom may just be a determining factor. This shouldn’t be viewed as anything negative of course, just a way for voters to feel a certain personal connection with their decision.
I love the relationship he and his wife have.
She is a wonderful supporter of his.
i truly hope that obama and clinton can be the dream team that we need to change america i hope that everybody support this and lets change america for the better i hope clinton and obama can put aside their negative campaign and join forces to keep the repubs out of office for the sake of the american people we have suffered 8 years to long now it’s time for “CHANGE”
As the Holy Spirit Leads President Obama will make the proper quality decision. That’s why we should all BE LIFTING UP AND THANKING THE LORD THAT EVERYTHING THAT CONCERNS HIM IS BLESSED IN ABUNDANCE TO THE FULL TILL IT OVERFLOWS AND THAT HE’S BEEN BLESSED WITH THE PEACE THAT SURPASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING GUARDING HIS HEART AND MIND THROUGH CHRIST JESUS IN JESUS NAME AMEN………….
There was nothing wrong to me with Hillary tying
to get the white working class vote,to me it only
make sense she’s was trying to when……
