Ha, ha! Donald Trump did even one better! He got up on stage with Dee Snyder of Twisted Sister and sang "We're gonna take it" For St. Jude's Children's Hospital and than his family gave them a check for 50,000 bucks!!!
Obama was a senator in 2005; He has been elected as the president of USA only in 2008... ;-) However I can understand how important this could be now for Wilco.
@@PotatoMaGobinus that's it go live in your little dream world.....pretend these things never happened........obama like the rest of them are just servants to the cabal.....can I ask one thing though? what colours the sky in your little illusional world?
you know what? even when he makes an introduction for a band he makes it sound like the most empowering speech on earth - just absolutely incredible......
@curragh 42 I know you told a stranger to drop dead. That's hateful. Then your response to me what generalized and also hateful. Glad you like Wilco though. Why else would you be here?
Great song. Love WIlco! Poor Obama, so youthful and passionate in this video. Presidency taxes you like hell. It's the president's job in our society to be hated on and it shows in the flesh and bone.
Appropriate that they are doing a Woody Guthrie song, a guy who represented the rights and freedoms of Americans, who travelled through the American heartland, witnessing the glories and the hardships of middle America's people, which included the dirt poor farmers of the Dustbowl.
but then Nels cline flips out on the slide and amazing sounds are heard and the crowd goes fucking wild and obama shits his self . and thousand of crops flurish with life and every thing is peaceful once again
I got tears in my eyes...mostly because this video encourages me that as a young, inner-city kid, going to school for paralegal studies...maybe someday I too can be President :)
I think a lot of people knew he'd be president after he gave his speech at the Democratic convention in 2004. The electricity was palpable even through the teevee set.
@1poorplayer I really think a lot of people are just in the dark about these very important issues. If we share our concerns than I'm sure more people will realize that things need to change. About a year a go I had no idea about our farms and the food industry. I got netflix and was addicted to documentaries. I love"The Beautiful Truth" "King Corn" "Food Inc." They opened my eyes and lead me down the path I have chosen. I care about the health of our food. I care about farmers.
near their zenith as a band, which is saying something as they rose from Being There through Summerteeth, YHF ...into Sky Blue Sky ... I liked this era band the most, as a band bar none
HolyCrap! AusGeuerin is hillarious! I partake and yet those were ignorant comments. Pot could certainly be beneficial in some ways but the idea of letting it free on the market now is outrageous.
@1poorplayer That's really sad! I am so sorry that this is happening in our country. All kinds of farmers are being screwed by big corporations. Then I see commercials talking about the national debt... well where do they expect farmer's to come up with all this money? credit. somebody always has to get rich. I wish more people would spend time trying to solve these problems.
@0412lennon The World Music Theater/Tweeter Center, or what ever they are calling it these days, at around Harlem Ave and Interstate 80 in Tinley Park, Il.
Goddamn Obama looks great in this video. Supporting the average American, supporting one of America's best artists of all time...It's a shame he couldn't seem this way as President. Oh well, the presidency introduces many many intricacies and hardships. I still love the man, And I will absolutely vote for him in 2012 regardless of his large business affiliations and his ineffectiveness with Congress. It's mostly Congress' fault anyway.
"We will make sure they get the advocacy and support they need". In other words: "We'll take money from somewhere else and give it to farmers no matter what they produce. In fact, we'll even give them money NOT to produce in many cases."
Haha, I remember watching a repeat of this, and Obama came out, and I was watching him, thinking "Huh. A black guy in politics? That's very interesting... What the Hell was his name? Huh, too bad I'll never need to do know it." The very next day, he blew up.
Dylans new album sure is thoughtful. Remember that HW, or W film and thee Chicago scene? What would happen if? VP Pence and getting hit with a bat would feel kind.
@tophacud look it's not his fault. There's a book called "The Thomas Jefferson Education" and it basically says that since the 1900's Americans have been taught what to think instead of how to think. Untill we realize that our system isn't working there is little hope. We need to be more understanding and open minded. We are living in the information age. Let's share what we think. Let's be informative without turning people away.
I lived in Central Illinois during his reign as senator. He knows ONLY Chicago politics and gave us CONSTANT grief downstate. We had a neighbor jailed over a fucking slug, because apparently the slug's rights usurped this 100+ year generation family's rights to their surface rights. (and mineral rights)
Jeff Tweedy may have grown up in Belleville, but Tweedy has lived in Chicago since the late 80's while performing with Uncle Tupelo. Wilco was formed IN CHICAGO in the early 90's. So Wilco is Chicago's own...
Best of all, no matter how much these left wing musicians tried to push the liberal agenda, it DID NOT WORK. The Democratic party used to be about hard workers but these days its about being paid NOT to work. FAIL!!!
@Jeffersonwazright Community.... it's what we should care about. I wish there were more local farms instead of giant factories that don't respect life. I think all animals are entitled to sunlight. Farmer's shouldnt have to worry about being allergic to antibiotics either. I think one of th emain powers against healthy sustainable farming is MONSANTO. I want to get my master's in nutrition and then another degree in animal science so maybe I can one day run the FDA fair and just.
President doesn't make you or break you..Obama is Cool. If you are unhappy, look inside.. The Mind makes Well or Sick..and by the way why the hell you listenin to Wilco? I guess you just like pretty sounds..
@themusicmatterz You do realize fast food places are almost always hiring, don't you? The economy's shit yeah, but you can get a job, just they don't pay well :P.
@riovouga I hate Monsanto too! We can't blame the president though... It's the corporations who have power. All we can do is each make an effort to inform people and make the world a better place.
Nels cline : lets rock this show , iam gonna play some crazy guitar solo and its gonig kick ass , hey tweety boy wheres my jassmaster. Mr.TWEETY: YOURE PLAYING SLIDE REMBER NELS: no i dont this sucks Obama: get youre ass out and play wilco , by the way voted for me next election. song starts Nels is like fuck this cant stand it .while he trys to keep it cool. Pat: look at me iam playing guitar haha i youre face Cline. Glennes like this going to be a big fight later to night.
I was fifteen. This was my first concert ever. The sox won this year. Life was bliss.
Not many bands can say the president essentially opened for them.
O'bama even listens to Farm Aid! Pretty Cooll!
Ha, ha! Donald Trump did even one better! He got up on stage with Dee Snyder of Twisted Sister and sang "We're gonna take it" For St. Jude's Children's Hospital and than his family gave them a check for 50,000 bucks!!!
Seriously?? Dee Snyder & Trump, are doing one better? Oh WOW. I'm sad for you. As sad, ashamed, embarrassed, as I am for the rest of us.
Obama was a senator in 2005; He has been elected as the president of USA only in 2008... ;-)
However I can understand how important this could be now for Wilco.
Great intro, by a great man, introducing a great band - wish I could've been there!
Obama ist ein Kriegsverbrecher
I so miss President Obama--- caring, compassion, a vision for the country, a role model, a good husband and father.
He is amazing. 💗
obama was/is a murderer
@@Benidorm167 no one asked you
@@PotatoMaGobinus that's it go live in your little dream world.....pretend these things never happened........obama like the rest of them are just servants to the cabal.....can I ask one thing though? what colours the sky in your little illusional world?
Selling arms to Syria, weapons confirmed with taking lives of our soldiers. Oh yes, truly amazing man
you know what? even when he makes an introduction for a band he makes it sound like the most empowering speech on earth - just absolutely incredible......
Now it'd be the reverse. Wilco says "I want everyone to give it up for Obama".
Love Obama. Love Wilco. Both men of substance and honour.
In 2017 RIP America #ResistTrump
@curragh 42You're a hateful human.
@curragh 42 I know you told a stranger to drop dead. That's hateful. Then your response to me what generalized and also hateful. Glad you like Wilco though. Why else would you be here?
@curragh 42 you are full of hypocrisy.
traceymod buck Ofama
wish we could turn back the clock, we had so much hope then. at least we still have Wilco. All is not lost.
I know.
I know that comment is a year old, but it made me laugh today. So, congrats on someone laughing at your year-old joke!
Wilco will love you baby
Man, if you were bummed out then...
I'm so so so happy with Wilco (I'm from Holland, from 1996 and fan from 2006)
Brings a tear to my eye.
Proud to Say I am a Daughter of a Indiana Farm Boy, & A very Proud Supporter/Voter of President Obama.
This Obama guy seems a good egg, he'll go far I reckon.
Great song. Love WIlco! Poor Obama, so youthful and passionate in this video. Presidency taxes you like hell. It's the president's job in our society to be hated on and it shows in the flesh and bone.
I think this is my favorite Wilco song.
I hope Whiskeytown reunites one day
One of my favorite Wilco songs! Great intro by President Obama
Appropriate that they are doing a Woody Guthrie song, a guy who represented the rights and freedoms of Americans, who travelled through the American heartland, witnessing the glories and the hardships of middle America's people, which included the dirt poor farmers of the Dustbowl.
Actually I'm right wing, but i have to admit the political weight and communication capacity of Mr. Obama. Great intro
Great damn performance! Nice to see Dana Carvey playing some back up. 😉
I love this song!
A great American and a great American band! Woody Guthrie would be proud :)
I love Obama, I love Wilco
Barack speaking into the mic like he's on WWE.
Someone let me know if there’s a better present day American band than Wilco.
My Morning Jacket is pretty awesome.
@jerste how is that sad we need more of this.
His career in avant garde jazz is much more satisfying, in my opinion.
A great moment in time, full moon, farm aid, Wilco, and, a soon to be elected President.
Nels Just Goes Off!! YES!
but then Nels cline flips out on the slide and amazing sounds are heard and the crowd goes fucking wild and obama shits his self .
and thousand of crops flurish with life and every thing is peaceful once again
I got tears in my eyes...mostly because this video encourages me that as a young, inner-city kid, going to school for paralegal studies...maybe someday I too can be President :)
I wonder if anyone knew he would be President then. What a guy!
+Extra Chill I hate to be that guy, but I called it after I saw him speak at the 2004 Convention and after reading Dreams of My Father.
I think a lot of people knew he'd be president after he gave his speech at the Democratic convention in 2004. The electricity was palpable even through the teevee set.
Seriously, who doesn't like Nels Cline. He is a baddass guitarist.
Can we please have the MC for another 8 years? Perhaps the main attraction can fill in for some Cabinet voids.

Obama Khakis on point. :)
Legit the funniest thing I've ever read, but in a good way. Like, where did Obama come from?
near their zenith as a band, which is saying something as they rose from Being There through Summerteeth, YHF ...into Sky Blue Sky ...
I liked this era band the most, as a band bar none
Four more years! wow
That guy's a good speaker, but he's never gonna be replaceable !
gotta love wilco !!
HolyCrap! AusGeuerin is hillarious! I partake and yet those were ignorant comments. Pot could certainly be beneficial in some ways but the idea of letting it free on the market now is outrageous.
almost feel like he's about to pick up the guitar and rock out at any moment.
I miss the days of Senator Barack.
Who wants some???? Let me know. Barracl introduces Wilco. Two Chicago boys done good.
@1poorplayer That's really sad! I am so sorry that this is happening in our country. All kinds of farmers are being screwed by big corporations.

you Americans damn spoilt!! thanx for posting -brilliant!

Surreal af
I miss President Obama so very much.
i just like wilco
Wonderful... great band, great president (if one would only not obstruct the latter's every move).
Very "dylanesque" sound here to my ears...
@Humbler25 I think American people need to contact their senators and stand for what they believe in. Unfortunately nobody has time or energy......
do they tell their sound guy to turn the bass down as low as he/she possibly can?

When Omama was president - that was when America was great!
rjd53 Vote again next time!
Nope. America has always been a mixed bag. We haven't had a decent President in at least sixty years. Obama was well-meaning, but a bad President.
@SufjanSays Well said!
And how high have commodity prices risen?

We had a neighbor jailed over a fucking slug, because apparently the slug's rights usurped this 100+ year generation family's rights to their surface rights. (and mineral rights)
@mynameisgolden probably the most accurate comment regarding yout tube "debates"
@lahren69 we do need to come together! I wouldn't call these issues political so much as our rights to healty food and to the truth.
Grab your GEDs, it's time to argue on UA-cam!
If someone tells me they don't like Wilco I tell them "Sorry, we can't be friends".
How cool would it be to have a president introduce you?
represent
Where is this at. Is this at MPP?
I'm wracking my brain. Did Barack ever invite them to The White House?
That would've been nice. 🙂
Is that beck on the guitar
Wisconsin farms ftw
I was Obama when I was there.
What song is this?
what is this "chicago's own wilco" about? lol they from belleville, near st louis, not chicago
Yep, along with Jeff's former best friend, Jay Farrar.
Jeff Tweedy may have grown up in Belleville, but Tweedy has lived in Chicago since the late 80's while performing with Uncle Tupelo. Wilco was formed IN CHICAGO in the early 90's. So Wilco is Chicago's own...
And it had zero effect on their sound.
Best of all, no matter how much these left wing musicians tried to push the liberal agenda, it DID NOT WORK. The Democratic party used to be about hard workers but these days its about being paid NOT to work. FAIL!!!
Well, they had to fly via Chicago, so it's their hub :D
Love the Wilco. Love the Guthrie. Tinley Park is OK I guess.
Nels!
Damn I miss Obama! Love Wilco.
Hail Hank Williams!!!

@mynameisgolden I have a BA in liberal arts. Does that mean im overqualified?
@musicmatterz fast food places you do know that is all GMOs and factory farms isn't this farm aid you know family farms
holy shit hes aged soooo much in the past few years.
Jeff has indeed.
ma non sarebbe stato meglio se avesse fatto solo il presentatore tv?
President doesn't make you or break you..Obama is Cool. If you are unhappy, look inside.. The Mind makes Well or Sick..and by the way why the hell you listenin to Wilco? I guess you just like pretty sounds..

veil of maya is real chi town band
They should have played Hell Is Chrome and changed the lyrics. "When Obama came....He was not red..."
Nels Cline is a good guitarist but I agree. Summerteeth era Wilco is much better.
I love Obama
@themusicmatterz That can't be. I am still paying off student loans, im sure someone will recognize that and give me a high paying job.
@mynameisgolden GED? oh, so you think you better than me? lol j/k
@JohnnyTRex99 sound the alarm.
Hey Guys, How's that Governor workin for you?
WTF! WHAT ABOUT THE FARMS OF WISCONSIN MR. PRESIDENT?!!
Nels cline : lets rock this show , iam gonna play some crazy guitar solo and its gonig kick ass , hey tweety boy wheres my jassmaster.
