1. Awesome!

I really hope as many people as possible view the speech in its entirety and not just the soundbites being played in the media.

9. They need to disable comments for the video...

It's just a feeding ground for racists and trolls.

5. The timing of this was key. We have 5 weeks until PA, so time will only help.

7. But I read on DU that no one has heard about it but us DUers!

You mean I shouldn't believe everything I read in GD-P?

8. It's gone viral

It's amazing that a nearly 45 minute speech has gotten over a million views. People want real political leadership and Obama provided it in the speech. Now it has 1,616,404 views and other versions have thousands of views also. The more people that see it, the better it is for Obama.

11. Excellent point - 40 minute videos RARELY go viral. Obama has hit a button.
