President Barack Obama paid tribute to U.S. military personnel and their families in his final Memorial Day speech as Commander-in-Chief at Arlington National Cemetery.
Came back to listen to a REAL speech to honor our vets and servicemen. It's ABOUT THEM today, not Trump, Obama or Clinton. Thank you Vets for all you do.
Bush senior had great speeches, and the best speech I ever heard was from JFK because he was a veteran who was awarded many awards. Look up JFK war service when you have time. He was the greatest president ever to live.
I try to always stay out of saying anything defending Obama because I see where it goes. I leave it alone and keep my thoughts to myself but this goes further than defending any President whether they are right or wrong when it comes to seeing so much disrespect from the dislikes and comments. This is the President. Have some respect.
I figured I would have gotten worse comments. But glad I didn't. but saying he's not worth respecting is the exact reason I never say anything. I don't argue with anyone who hates or dislikes Obama because it's so pointless. But you have to understand Obama was what we needed in this country for that feeling of change to occur. We can go in a really great direction if people understand who the next president should be. If they don't then that's their own faults for not looking at the information.
This was a president, he is no longer the president in the White House, thus he is no more than a former president who shouldn't have ever been a president in the first place.
This is an honest, respectful and true recognition of our countries' veterans and their families. So eloquent and heartfelt. Thank you to those who served.
I came here to listen to a real president give a speech about those who Memorial Day is about: those that gave their lives in the service of this country. Note who he spoke about. It wasn't about himself, or about his ratings. This is how it's supposed to be done.
For 2020 Memorial Day came back to listen to this beautiful speech honoring the men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice. How far this office has fallen. Thank you, President Obama and all who serve.
ill never forget seeing this on the TV in the chow hall a day after i had to clean my best friends blood off the passenger door after he dismounted in an ambush and took a sniper round to the neck. Politics aside i loved his speech
All you folks simply focused on the man, you've missed it entirely. It's not about this man or any other singular individual. Shame on all of you. Not because it's today, but because I'm sure you're idiots with hollow souls all the time. Not just because "this guy" is speaking. I pity you and hope that perhaps YOU may have something nice and respectful to grieve for. I know I do. No matter who opens there mouth. Some of you people are just plain sad.

It's unfortunate that the republicans can hate so indiscriminately. It's one thing to disagree with someone politically, but it's another thing to hate someone personally. Someone, you don't even really know for that matter. No I don't really agree with Some of Obama's policies. But I don't hate him. Even when the man is trying to honor the men and women who died for this country, they arbitrarily hate. And it's unfortunate that the haters yell the loudest.
After watching fifteen seconds of dumps speech I had to come here to get some coherent and thoughtful words...I cringe and shake my head ever time I hear dump the dummy open his mouth...🤣
BECAUSE OUR DEMOCRACY IS ENDANGERED BY ROGUE ELEMENTS THAT ARE DETERMINED TO TURN THIS COUNTRY INTO AN AUTOCRACY [DICTATORSHIP] PRESIDED OVER BY TRUMP & HIS FASCIST CRONIES & SUPPORTERS!
The simple fact that he has the most drone and air strike kills of any president should speak enough about whether he gave a shit. I myself have been angry over the amount of money used on military, but it needs to happen if we want to dig less graves.
I was never a fan to what you have done to our hopes and dreams, our spirits. But it was an alright farewell memorial speech. Take care and may you have dignity as you go.
Donovan notmyname, Jealousy is a terrible thing. Build yourself up and perhaps you won't look for ways to bring others down to your level. It's almost impossible to get lower than a snake's belly, but you achieved it.
Like the Bush's and the Clinton's before Obama was a failed President. We have to pull out of this hole we are in and pray Trump stays true till the end, and so on after.

LONG LIVE CHARLIE KEATING IV
I don’t care if you’re a democratic or republican this should never be disliked
How do you know non humans so well . This man has soul class and dignity, probably the most respected president for a long time
Not one word about himself or his psuedo accomplishments. Just revefence and respect for our heroes, Vets.
Nice try.
now this is how you speak. not like a 4th grader.
He definitely a better speaker then Trump but not a president

Obama doesn't like the military or police ..that's were this is coming from
+Steve S he doesn't like it? says who? the media? press? your favorite celebrity?

@@watchman48 Look at trump now

Couldn't see trump making a speech like this.
Reading from teleprompter that somebody else wrote while actively betraying the vets and the people of America? Me neither.
Obama's eloquent speech acknowledges the sacrifices of all those who fought in foreign wars to protect our freedoms @home & abroad.
For 2020 Memorial Day came back to listen to this beautiful speech honoring the men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice. How far this office has fallen. Thank you, President Obama and all who serve.
I am not an Obama supporter, but this is one amazing speech. This may be his defining speech, and surely will be what I remember him by.
ill never forget seeing this on the TV in the chow hall a day after i had to clean my best friends blood off the passenger door after he dismounted in an ambush and took a sniper round to the neck. Politics aside i loved his speech
The comments on here on disgusting. You all deserve Trump
we are glad to have trump and for 2020.
All you folks simply focused on the man, you've missed it entirely. It's not about this man or any other singular individual. Shame on all of you.

A speech that honors are dead, and reminds us why we must do so...

I needed to hear the thoughts of a real leader on this day. Trumps making as ass of himself again. Thank you President Obama.
Yep, “Happy Memorial Day”
Wow!
Not comparing, I just wanted to know if I remembered right!
Thank You to all our services vets, men and women, thank You President Obama 🇺🇸❤️🙏🏻
We were so blessed for 8 years... He is the bar, anything less is unacceptable... Gob Bless America!!!
This is what you call a TRUE CHRISTIAN PATRIOT!! #yeswecan
looking at the comments I have to ask... why hate Obama so much? Any answers not related to race will be greatly appreciated .
Bless America's Heros.

He spoke stories of American heroes. 💙🇺🇲
Stop it its Memorial Day pay some respect
After watching fifteen seconds of dumps speech I had to come here to get some coherent and thoughtful words...I cringe and shake my head ever time I hear dump the dummy open his mouth...🤣
This was a great speech 05/30/2018 twelve years ago.
profound speech
Amazing that he dint mention Trump.
Long live the brotherhood.
Since when does Obama care about Vets or our military?
He always has.
since day one
G. W. Bush did really care a lot more, right?
Zircon 308 soooooo true
Why is this comment section about politics?
BECAUSE OUR DEMOCRACY IS ENDANGERED BY ROGUE ELEMENTS THAT ARE DETERMINED TO TURN THIS COUNTRY INTO AN AUTOCRACY [DICTATORSHIP] PRESIDED OVER BY TRUMP & HIS FASCIST CRONIES & SUPPORTERS!
BECAUSE WE NEED TO BE REMINDED HOW MANY YOUNG [& MATURE!] SOLDIERS SACRIFICED THEIR LIVES IN FOREIGN WARS TO PROTECT OUR FREEDOMS HERE @ HOME!
The simple fact that he has the most drone and air strike kills of any president should speak enough about whether he gave a shit. I myself have been angry over the amount of money used on military, but it needs to happen if we want to dig less graves.
🙏😊,,ny,,barack,asia obama,,!!
Biden could never come close to the professionalism and respect.

DEMSELF AREZA DA ONES PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE AMERICA AMERICA AMERICA 🇺🇸
DEMSELF NOT FALLING DEMSELF RISE
if there ever was a non human walking among us it's this thing. listening and looking at him chills me to my very soul
You have been brainwashed...
Likewise wielding. He just oozes evil.
Your simply a turd amongst other insignificant turds. Happy flushing you nappy fuck!
im 14 without a dad. He died in iraq ied. Remember before you comment what memorial day is about. Remember ill never see him again
+Chris M I was actually in iraq and Afghanistan. why don't you honor his memory and join the service in a few years.
I was never a fan to what you have done to our hopes and dreams, our spirits. But it was an alright farewell memorial speech. Take care and may you have dignity as you go.
Why couldn't he say God bless? This will always be one nation under God.
Laura Kane+ He's a devil worshipper that's why and he has CIA agents inside the Taliban and Isis who are attacking our military and civilians.
God isn't real, and there's a certain separation of state. Don't believe in fairy tales.
All he could manage was the word bless. This joker is not an American and could never represent the good people.
+Bluespirit12345J just cuz u don't believe don't mean u can talk to others like that I believe God.
HE SAID IT AT THE END
@chrismason947. Yep, nice try george soros jr. Aka Ol pepperoni eyes.
I'm honored to George W Bush. Without him, My buddy Osama wouldn't have been hunted and killed.
Behold,the Villain speaks!
Obama 4 four more years!
I don't want to see this hypocrite ever again, none of what he has said is in anyway genuine.
Donovan notmyname,
Jealousy is a terrible thing. Build yourself up and perhaps you won't look for ways to bring others down to your level. It's almost impossible to get lower than a snake's belly, but you achieved it.
Donovan notmyname You should be ashamed. And those that agreed with your despicable comments!
not a single genuine word
the end of an error. about time
Off to prison also !!!!
traitor.
you have a little bit of wax there...Oh, wait...nope, it's just Trump
Like the Bush's and the Clinton's before Obama was a failed President. We have to pull out of this hole we are in and pray Trump stays true till the end, and so on after.
TRUMP 2016
