FULL SPEECH: Barack Obama delivers keynote speech at DNC 2024

On the second night of the DNC in Chicago, former President of the United State Barack Obama talked about his appreciation for Joe Biden, why 'passing the torch' to Kamala Harris was right, and more.

[feszty]

The difference in intellect between Barack Obama and Trump is astronomical.

[brianrodriguez]

"Don't vote" that was a good line

[AL_]

I voted against Obama both times, but I could not possibly have more respect for this man. I didn’t agree with everything he did, but his unwavering decency and ability to inspire hope and positivity is unquestionable. He was my commander in chief for the last four years of my military career and I am proud to have served under him.

[johnerickp]

Too bad we never got an Obama vs Trump debate.

[kbunny]

I can’t tell you all how uplifting this man is. You are missed Sir.

[joshuabates]

Michelle Obama! "who is going to tell him (trump) that the job he is certainly seeking might be one of those "black jobs!" Right on!!!

[laur]

The Obamas are just so classy and articulate. People actually respected this country when we had them in office.

[shelliyork]

Oh how I have missed listening to your speeches Barack Obama tears streaming as I listened to you. Eloquent, hopeful and uplifting as always thank you President Obama 🙏

[maureenkeegan]

Incredible. Talk about hopeful. Talk about the polar opposite of whining. What an orator.

[alpaka]

Had a good life with this guy running the country

[charlie-obrien]

At 18:57 the lady crying tears of joy over hearing President Obama speak is channeling us all!

[Frostbbitten]

I really miss hearing Barack speak, have always respected his ability to inspire. He can really deliver a speech. Not sure why it seems so rare to hear a politician deliver such heart felt sentiments.

[williamgolston]

Just the greatest oritator of a President Obama knows exactly how to get a reaction and galvanize a crowd. Just a fantastic speaker.

[jackedward.kashyyyk]

i am honored to call him my childhood president. as a kid (born 2000) i always felt safe under Obama, both of them, Michelle included

[michaelkingsbury]

He knocked it out of the park once again! I voted for McCain, but I saw Barack Obama govern like Ike. My party left me, so I left the party. My family have been Republican since the founding of the party, and were abolitionists Whigs before that. Hell they moved to Kansas in 1850 from New England to keep it from becoming a slave state! I'll never vote Republican again. Thank, Barack!

[gregmckenzie]

This man is the greatest communicator and leader of our lifetime.

[hasonmorris]

Man I miss him being in the White House

[OhEstefano]

This right here…..is what being Presidential and an overall good human in leadership looks like! The man is still just as sharp and eloquent as he always has been! Both speeches from he and Michelle, conveyed a message of unity and perseverance! Notice, the crowd had tears in their eyes….#Inspirational

[chrisb]

It's always nice to hear Barack give a speech. He could be talking about how pencils are made and I'm all ears and taking everything in.

[tenillewatt]

When an educated, determined, knowledgeable, and intelligent person speaks…. Whewww! Throw the mic down now.
