1. I'll bet the 'SWEETIE MENTALITY' doesn't cut it with a lot of women.

5. Isn't It Time For You To Move On?
I believe that "bargaining" is the next phase.

7. 'Move on' thinks like YOU do. WHY would I want to do such a foolish thing?
Bargaining is NOT an option with a manipulator.

who don't like the OHHH BABY MENTALITY.

2. Awwww, Obama has a "woman's video."
Is this like the "woman's page" they used to have in the newspapers? Does he give recipes?

13. Fantastic, substantive video!
It was amazing to see the strong, beautiful women of all ages (including the Obama daughters and their sweet relationship with their parents!) here. This is a campaign this feminist can support with pride and hope.

Thanks for posting!

14. Yes - substantive - that is exactly what I liked about it.
I like the personality profile-type vids too but I particularly liked this one because it provided the stories of several women, the Obamas and policy goals.

The 2-3 minute videos cannot do what a longer video can do.

17. Kick!!!! I would Rec if it wasn't too late
I wish everyone-Dems and Repubs-would watch this. It was very inspiring to me as a woman and a mother who is having a hard time right now. Watching it made me feel like there are really great days ahead for America again and all the people like me and my family who have a hard time getting ahead.

21. Great video!
That is a very good video to show people who may not really get who the Obama family is. This video really portrays them the way Obama comes across in his books. I am stunned by the jaded people who don't see the sincerity of this family. People also couldn't see that Bush was a liar, or that Hillary was power hungry and deceptive. It always amazes me. I witnessed Obama in a loving gesture with a supporter that was completely spontaneous and not filmed. I see how he hugs and kisses his wife in the same way my husband of 27 years hugs and kisses me. This is a modern working father with a modern working wife and two young children who are newly landed in a world of privilege. The fierce urgency of now is to let them lead while they still remember the struggle.

23. Barack Obama For Women
Great video! There are a lot of women supporters for Barack Obama which I feel sometimes has been down-played in the media.
