On Tuesday, Pres. Obama took his push to raise the minimum wage to Amazon’s headquarters at Chattanooga, Tennessee.

However, instead of receiving what you would expect from this red state crowd that is portrayed by the mainstream media as being steadfastly against Pres. Obama’s economic message, the speech was very well received by nearly everybody in attendance.

We went through the video and brought you the best part, a one minute segment where he lays a beautiful argument for raising the federal minimum-wage, and the crowd went wild!

1. It is this kind of talk

That led me to donate to his campaign. I am in total agreement with every word spoken here.
This is leadership.

Don't stop hammering away with this message Mr. President.

I will give credit when credit is properly due.

4. Sad. This in TN where unions have been busted

and all but destroyed. And people who should be championing unions have been taught to despise them and vote against their own best interest. It's very depressing.

6. Very true. Although I never belonged to a union I use to remind my fellow workers

they should be thanking unions for 5 day work week, health care, putting child labor laws in effect and safety issues. All important things unions took on for everyone even non union people. It is a mind set these people have. I don't understand why many vote against their own financial interests.

15. Maybe we could all move to Detroit

and get a UAW job.I live in a town of 8000 in Tenn., and most of my friends have good union jobs making between 18 and 35 bucks an hour,and they are very Democratic.

It could be better here tho.

5. Proof that Bob Corker cheated!

That election was rigged!

[southernyankeebelle]

7. It wasn't rigged. He used race to win. That was how he won. Some rednecks don't like

uppity african-americans dating white women. Race that was it.

9. Whatever it was, it sure was a mistake!

That guy is a classic example of a 100% corporate pimp.

[southernyankeebelle]

12. Well he is a millionaire before he came to office. Your right. I sure didn't vote for him.

[Hubert Flottz]

13. May I say, that you live in a beautiful state?

And I don't think anyone of sound mind would have voted for him.

[southernyankeebelle]

16. Yes I am not from here originally and it took me many years to get use to it. I love

the area I live in. I live in the middle of nursery country. I am surround by rows and rows of bushes, trees of all kind. Also some of my neighbors have cows. I live in a very quiet area in rural Tn. Summer is beautiful here. Although a few minutes ago I went to out the back door to look at a bush next to the house and I got stung by wasps 3 times. You would have thought I knew better because it happened to me last week. In the very same foot and now it looks like a baloon and it itches and hurts. But I still love the peace and quiet.

20. Sending good vibes for your hurt foot!

Go out tonight with a flashlight and a can of Zippo fluid and get even with those nasty rascals!(keep flame away from lighter fluid until it evaporates) It's rained so much here the yellow jackets are building nests up off the ground. My sister had some under her vinyl siding that really laid it on her when she walked by them. She got them that night with some Raid. Wasps swell me up too, so if I see them I try to get rid of them, ASAP.

Now if our business leaders would just listen.

This message is what we need to hear from the President.
