YouTube – Obama Speech: ‘A More Perfect Union’ This is important and I think you should watch it, whether or not you are an Obama supporter, or a Democrat. Watch it because you’re an American – or because you’re a human being that cares about what happens in this country and the ramifications it might have on the world. Watch it because you understand that sound bites can’t possibly tell the whole story. And watch it because this speech will be in the history books and it’s worth 37 minutes of your time to know what was really said.
