I disagreed with Senator McCain on almost every stance he took, but I remember sitting there watching when he confronted the voter who said Obama was a Muslim and other outrageous claims and defended his opponent and I was shocked. He was a patriot, a statesman, and an incredible leader. President Obama was right, our country was made better thanks to John McCain’s leadership. RIP Senator. God speed.
@@schlexfeld407 no dude. No he wasn’t. Because people flipped out on him for his relationship to the pastor of the church he went to in Chicago. You know, the church he attended for years?
John OPENLY defended Obama even when they were going head to head with one another, he said Obama is a decent human being that I happened to have disagreements with. You don't see this in American politics anymore.
This still happens among politicians just not among the corrupt politicians. McCain stood up for us last year and if wasn’t for him millions of Americans would owe billions together for the Covid-19 pandemic if they didn’t have insurance thanks to the ACA that McCain defended!
@Kara Fangmeier thats why I dislike Trump. Don't EVER disrespect the soldiers that fight for us and keep us free. Those brave men and women risk their lives and do the dirty work
@@bernaasuncion2729 I can understand evading conscription, but then turning around and criticizing American soldiers for getting captured is blatant hypocrisy and just plain disgusting.
@Kara Fangmeier This is the actual quote for the record: "He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren't captured." How there can be a single veteran or service member that supported Trump after saying something as shameful as that absolutely stuns me.
I think it’s extremely telling that McCain asked President Obama, someone he ran against to speak at his funeral, while Donald Trump was barred from the funeral.
@@OreoFuffMcduff that lady was crazy , but i love the way you could here her shocked that someone said he was a good person .. you can kind of hear here all like “ wha!?he isint”
McCain and Obama are both shining examples of what a Presidential candidate/President should be. Legitimately tried to make the country they loved better, for all its citizens.
Stew Artisan, I just saw Cohen's interview today and he said TRUMP NEVER SEND SOMEONE IN HAWAII TO CHECK PRES. OBAMA's BIRTH CERTIFICATE. Cohen said TRUMP DON'T WANT TO SPEND MONEY FOR THAT BUT ALL THIS TIME HE WAS LYING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. TRUMP IS DUMB AND STUPID. HE WAS JUST LUCKY THAT HIS DADDY WAS RICH SO THEY CAN PAY SOMEONE TO TAKE THE TEST FOR HIM.

Jason Bailey I give him Batman status. He was born to rare circumstance. Chose to let his trauma improve him and others. I give Obama Superman status in that he was an outsider. Became best defender of adopted home.
hope u r well ...i agree Mr Man Bun with what you have said ...the problem with Trump is , he thinks everyone still registered with the GOP, believes the nonsense he spews forth on a daily basis. he forgets that folks like you MB even although you may be a proud Republican, you do not exist just to please him....i am a Scot so cant vote in November , but i implored the millions of decent Republicans with a great heart to LEND the Democrat your vote just ONE time in the 2018 mid terms . with a record 9 million majority , many of you decent Americans must have put your already great country 1st i implore you again bro & all whom share your sentiments, to please LEND your vote , one FINAL time to the Democrat , to save the very soul, of your great nation.. . stay safe & take great care of all the ones that you love, as this President so far has not & will not
Who is here after Joe Biden won the US Presidency? Tribute to John, the most decent Republican party nominee so far. What a sharp contrast he was from Donald Trump.
John McCain’s wife is part of the Republicans Against Trump group. Which is good for her. I admire Republicans who are against Trump. And I consider myself a Democrat :)
Yup 👍 here because Biden’s speech today reminded me of McCain’s own concession speech when Barrack Obama won. This funeral was his last act as a human being, an effort to show America that he worked with both sides, because he wanted to best for the country he sacrificed so much for. It was his last act of service.
We know. We hear you and feel you. We have clear vision that we’ve been wrong. Trump is just a mirror we needed to look into to see how good we really had it with past leaders.
@@sonnybrown4758 thank you for seeing what’s really going on, a lot of people who STILL support trump is brainwashed. The white straight people voting for trump just don’t care cause his policies will never negatively affect them so it’s sad they only care about themselves
What a privilige John Mc Cain bestowed on President Obama in asking him to deliver his eulogy. He could have asked anyone including from his own party or the military but he chose President Barak Obama someone who seemingly he had very little in common except of course genuine patriotism and huge integrity. That says it all.
he asked george bush as well, and both gave tremendous eulogies. my dad who is a democrat voted republican in all state elections soley because of this amazing and inspirational human being. I only knew the gravitas of his excellence after his passing however I will continue to research the legacy and greatness of this man
Even though they ran against each other, the two of them shared an immense respect for the other. They disagreed on a lot of things, but they could see that the person they ran against was worth respecting.
In the old days, as I have lived long enough to refer to my early youth as 'the old days'...I remember reading as a boy Republican Senator Everett Dirksen saying in opposition to LBJ's Great Society, "a billion here and a billion there; pretty soon we are talking about real money." Restrained. Dignified. And still to the point. All gone, now.
Indeed....Today, if I were to write a book it would be titled "When boys go to war". We have so much immature leadership that is responsible for the lives of millions. We need maturity and responsibility back in this position.
I vote somebody with better policies that helps people, and that is clearly Trump, being president is not a personality show... If it was, then we would vote McCain.
On the other hand. McCain's running mate was not that impressive. If both Obama and McCain run for the president together, I would not care which is president and which is the vice president. I know at the end of the day, and after lots of argument, their combined decisions will be sound. The country will be going forward and people will be united under their leadership.
@@eliasziad7864 Character, not personality, matters. I would have thought his supporters would have known this after these past 4 years. America has spoken and they have fired Trump.
I used to pride myself on being a RINO hunter (McCain among them), and I took Rush Limbaugh's advice to root for Obama to fail. But 4 years of Trump has opened my eyes, and now I would give anything for 100 John McCains in the Senate and a person with as even half of much character and decency in the White House as President Obama
Honnestly, from a European perspective, you have no idea how the ideas defended by the Republican Party seem terrifying. People like Trump or Pence seem to believe that anyone who criticizes the current American system is a defender of the radical left, and yet they tolerate ideas among their own party that would seem extremist to a vast majority of european far-right leaders. Of course we can rejoice that people like Pence have deeply rooted convictions and aren't afraid to express it, but Republicans, as strongly as they may despise or fear the ideas of the Democrats, should understand that even people like Sanders are not so radical. Sanders goes approximately as far to the left as Sarah Palin goes to the right. And to keep the same constitution since the late 18th Century is a sign of such conservatism that even reformers ought to be radical. Anyway, I used to only feel hate and desprise for Republican values, and then I discovered John Mc Cain. If he had lived in a country where moderate conservative can developp a programm on their own, he would have been an amazing leader
@@Lena-1312 The EU crowd consistently says that the US is too far to the right without understanding that the entirety of the West is too far to the left, and also that America has drifted left from where it once was. If it's a matter of comparison, yes, the US is further right than EU on a number of issues, but if it's a matter of where you ought to be, it's really a matter of perspective. Acting as though the majority has to be correct is a total fallacy. And honestly, I think people from EU typically get a very poor education about US politics. The media heavily polices all information people receive from abroad, so someone from EU ought to be extremely skeptical about making strong claims about anything related to US politics. For example, your education about John McCain is sorely lacking.
Exactly, but unfortunately in America we still have alot of racist ppl who are easily manipulated and brainwashed even more, so they just become sheep and follow whateva 45 says without using their own brain to think for themselves

The fact that he could make a widow, the children of the deceased, and other mourners laugh while giving a heartfelt eulogy speaks to his level of class and honesty
" I do not serve the Republican Party, I serve the people of Arizona." *I desperately want for Arizona to stay Blue! What a wonderful thing that would be: "McCain's Last Laugh"*
Were he alive today, he would have like so many others witness how once again, Americans found a way to beat back the darkness and bring back decency, and unity and a will to stand for what is right to the heart of a nation, a representation of everything he stood for in his life. The people pulled their nation from the brink. John McCain would have been proud.
Resonates so deeply today, when we are so divided over a health care issue, of all things--we are ALL on the SAME TEAM!! We need to work together. I felt this so deeply because so many in my family also disagree, but we never, ever forget that we are all on the same team! It allows us to talk and discuss and come to understand each other (doesn't mean agree, just understand). It brings us closer together, despite differences. That is America!
It speaks so much of McCain. To go to the White House on a regular basis to talk to the man that beat you. You don't see that very often. I remember that Obama had said on other occasions that he'd call John to the White House, or just plain call him, if he had questions about military issues, budgets, and stuff. I also remember hearing that John McCain was one of his main counsels when he had to pick military leaders, or if there were issues that he just didn't understand or want to screw up. That's an awesome trait, and a rare one, in a POTUS. Admit that you don't know something. Admit that you want someone to counsel you.
@@tctopcat1981 I was in country Vietnam, 1967, 1968, ,& 1969. John McCann was a pow at the Hanoi Hilton, as it was referred to then, I being a sailor also we prayed and we were definitely going to do something to bring our men back home. I enjoyed the man McCann.
Manny you just figured that out? He’s one of the best orators of all time in American history. How do you think he overcame his skin color and little experience to still become President. That wouldn’t happen if his skills wasn’t out of this world.
@@motec8222 You know what's funny? I never saw his skin color. Was never a factor for me. I only saw an incredibly smart, articulate, fair, calm, down to earth, yet passionate man who wanted the best for all Americans, not just some Americans.

@@kathleenmitchell1582 I never understood America's obsession with the color or shade of a someone's skin. Obama was clearly smart, measured, articulate, and set a good example for America. It's sad to see people try to take away from his achievements and ability to unify us, just because he isn't white.
McCain and Obama Respected each other...and that was shown Even more when McCain specifically ask for Obama to deliver the Eulogy and Obama Respectfully accepted....Class Act by Both... This is what Martin Luther King meant when he said" Not being judge by the Color of Your Skin but by the Content of Your Character"..
Thank you Mr Williams, these men were both exemplars of modern american political and legal writing and oratory, and were both exemplars of Men of Decency and Character.
To ask your former antagonist to speak at your funeral and this beautiful speech itself are moving reminders that there still is dignity and decency in the world.
I gained all respect for John the day he defended Obama while running against him. You’re literally fighting for what could be the greatest achievement of your life yet you defend your opponent🥺❤️
As someone not from the US (and therefore probably a little bit more objective), I guess Obama will just go down as one of many. He was the first black president, and the coolest for sure. But being cool doesn't make you better or worse at your job, and Obama was good in many fields but bad in others (he should have never gotten the Nobel peace prize for example).
I have a big beautiful eulogy. They say I can’t write one but trust me I do. I don’t know who is in the audience but I write the best eulogy in this room.
When I look at First Lady Michelle Obama, I see a wife who is so very proud of her husband as she observes him in action. President Obama similarly shows the same admiration, respect, and pride in Mrs. Obama on every occasion.
I'm crying watching this video. I'm sure how many days of quarantine we've had thus far, but what I do know, is , how much I miss and love our beloved President of the United states, Barack Obama. May God continue to bless him and his family.

As someone who supported Trump I will have to disagree. I haven't personally heard anyone who supports Trump disrespect John McCain. He really was a great representation for this country and as a republican. And personally don't agree with something's Obama has done during his president but he seems like a good guy.
@@dawsonp3314 You live in the fantasy land. The moment Trumpy attacked McCain , thousands of trolls rose from their holes in a coordinated barrage against J McC. They attacked him for ACA, VA issues, Vietnam POW's etc etc. McCain was the only high ranking Republican with a spine to stand against Trumpism. And I do not live in US (I am from the other side of the pond). And besides Bolsonaro, Kim and Putin, most of the rest of the world are elated to see the Fatso go before doing something irreversible
John had a funeral filled with more dignitaries than most presidents EVER get. Regardless of politics, Senator McCain has made a remarkable impact on our country. May God rest his soul!!!
Can we please talk about this speech? One of the best I've heard. "He understood that if we get in the habit of bending the truth to suit political expediency or party orthodoxy, our democracy will not work." Goddamn i may get that tattooed to my forehead.
Queue the Republicans trying to cram through a supreme court justice in their final hours. Guess what, then the court gets packed, equally shameful. This is what happens when we get to these extremes. Democracy starts to fail.

I get what you mean and I wish the Oval Office had more dignity but I also realize that literally from day one of his presidency he was called a transphobic, homophobic, warmongering, racist and none of it has proven to be true. (Unless you consider America a race). It would be interesting to see how he would act if he was given the support and the benefit of the doubt that Obama enjoyed.
This was great, I've been looking for "funeral eulogy outline" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Zanogan Deynna Domination - (search on google )? It is a smashing exclusive guide for finding some excellent eulogy speeches without the normal expense. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my partner got great results with it.
The video is 19 minutes and 55 seconds long. This man is the perfect orator, the Martin Luther King Jr of our time. Such an honor to live through his tenure.
My dear, I always got Dsame feeling when ever I listened to him. even when am lonely if I go to RUclips an listen to his videos immediately I use to forget my loneliness🤘🤝🙏
I won't ever forget the decency of McCain to state that Obama was a good man who he merely had different political views with, when some audience members during his Presidential campaign said what they feared about Obama. We need to see much more of that kind of behaviour in politics. RIP John McCain.
McCain fostered open discussion and change, while Trump and so many today simply want to shut down the opposing side without listening to them. McCain was one of the last great politicians, and god I hope we get more like him
I feel so blessed to have lived to see this gentleman, such a lovely man , a man of integrity, and a man who cares for humanity...as the President of the United States. I miss him so much.
He showed his class again with this speech. He will go down in history as one of the greatest president's we had and John McCain as one of the great Senators who ever served this great republic.
You were wrong on both counts ! Obama hated America and Especially Americans , McCain was forced to be put on a committee to bring our Vietnam pows Back because he denied their existence ! Obama was a Corrupt Prick ! Fast and Furious , Benghazi , Sic the IRS on GOP doners ! Very patriotic !
@@larabauer4009 As opposed to a clown who only ran for president to line his own pockets and doesn't give a flying crap about you? Yeah, whatever! Proof? Oh, that's right, just blind stupid allegations. ROFLMAO!
Biden is a decent human beeing... yes he stands not for the most progressive policys and standpoints, but in exactly that regard you can see, that he is a president who wants to bridge the gap of partisan politics and end the decade of hate Mr. Trump has left us. The reason you don't think bad about President Obama and think bad of President elect Boden is exactly the kind of viciousness that was lacking in the McKain election bid, which has poisoned American politics since Trump ran for president. Don't fall for the language of Trump, there are not two sides which are equally bad. Trump is an authoritarian who runs on a dividing platform against a Man who has devoted his life to bipartisanship. Exactly In the spirit of John McKain!
@@friederkumpf8158 he insulted my race way to many times for me this year calling us thugs and un diverse... I voted independent until the Dems actually give a decent candidate
As Republican as Arizona may be, they showed America that they would not take disrespect to one of it's people. Especially one who was a decroated war veteran. Thank you, Arizona for demonstrating loyalty to American values over partisanship of one's party. Thank You for being an example to us all.
Going thru these old speeches, they really light a fire in your soul to keep trying to be better! I hope we all succeed in being a better person! RIP John McCain!
May I use this as a forum to just say that not all Republicans stand with Trump. Honestly, I don’t like democrats or their policies, but I could still respect Obama as a man and as a President. I cannot say that about Trump.
I know many like you. I agree with you. Perfectly ok to have policy differences, but Obama brought dignity to the office and Trump dishonours the office daily.
And Im no republican , And I don't like their policies , But you don't know what America is about, if you cant respect a man, Who served this country as long and as well as the Late Great senator and war hero John Mccain.
Noelia Jaime, I’m against attempts at Universal Healthcare as I don’t think Democrats understand the extent to which universal healthcare will impact food policy, the agricultural industry, the pharmaceutical industry, or the insurance industry. Moreover their references to Europe are concerning as I don’t think democrats understand the extent to which European countries interfere and directly manage the health of their citizens, not to mention how small these nations are and the relative size of their various industries. In terms of climate change, well I agree with the scientific research proposing it is real and a threat, I despise the dismay with which democrats regard coal and oil workers as expendable. I mean i don’t think they understand how my father, a coal worker by trade, was expected to give up his livelihood as a miner and go move to a big city, only to become a janitor, in a time where he was supposed to retire. I don’t like unemployment subsidies, as I think democrats are more willing to concentrate on supporting those unemployed than actual building jobs for them to work. As i believe higher taxes drive away business to well Mexico and China. I despise democrats for their willingness to let in illegals, which I cannot understand. I mean we are a nation of laws, how are they so willing to violate them. Either change them or enforce them, you cannot avoid both. That said Trump’s cages are immoral and go against my values. I’m against increasing trade with China, a policy initiated by Democrats in the 90s and supported by Obama (as I was even before Covid), due to the fact that the regime violates democracy, and the rights of man. I could go on for ages.
It seems like before Trump, most politicians were able to look past politics and respect each other. Obama and the Clinton’s at a republicans funeral and George Bush laughing with Michelle... Nowadays, things are just so divisive that it’s astonishing that this funeral was only 2 years ago.
Then you dont know the truth about him....so stay out of American politics if you are ignorant of them!!! Its equivalent to say im not German but i listened to Hitlers speeches and they were refreshing...not good!!!
I miss this thoughtfulness and empathy....dignaty...someone that puts the good of all the people ahead of spite and his need to be right and ego.....ugh.....for him to call while alive to ask his advisery to speak of him speaks volumes....prayers to the family he was a good man.
@Ricardo S Hahaha yeah we're not gonna play this game. You people seem to believe its a coincidence that every recent president that has held office is against him, not only that, but recent Republican nominees in McCain and Romney. But I get it. Pretty easy to say "everyone is lying on you", instead of looking at the why. That fits your narrative. But you got it bro, you win 🙂
Ricardo S I do not understand how anyone can support a single thing Trump says. I can’t think of a SINGLE thing Trump has said the past 4 years that is even true, let alone actually based on facts. I don’t care what your political leaning is, it’s quite a simple fact that he lies daily. You can read it for yourself directly from the man. If you say that he doesn’t lie to us every day you are lying to yourself and us. Why would I support someone who can’t even tell the truth? He resorts to character attacks on his opponents because he can’t actually debate with facts. He’s turned politics into a partisan circus of character attacks, lies, and extreme division. He’s weakened our image across the world because of this.
I’ve watched this more than 10 times and I still come back to this when I need something to feel better. Today is one of those day as we anxiously wait for the final results! RIP John McCain, What a truly honorable man, Arizona did you well sir!!
Eli Lichtman not without a birth by fire it’s too gone to salvage now under trump and we need a complete new Republican Party that holds actual ideals and willing to work with the other parties instead of acting like children that the current party heads of it do
Great speech and eulogy Mr President. History will tell that you were one of America’s greats. We in Britain have always loved and admired you. Condolences to Mr MaCain’s family.
So your idea of a "Great" president is someone who can bring a country to its knees and lead it to the brink of collapse ?? Great logic there bro.......
I was in the UK in June, and I asked several people I met in various places if we could just forget that whole Revolution thing and come back to be part of the British Commonwealth. I said we like your Queen! They all said they'd love to have us. :) I must say, if I didn't have grandchildren I'm rather enamored of, oh, and my own grown kids, I would consider it. Such a beautiful country, and the people are smart and friendly. I visited all four countries, including both parts of Ireland, and I just loved it. Of course, the weather was beautiful. Perhaps I might not like it so much if it were cloudy and rainy all the time. Thank you for your comments here. I just wish we had the same level of leadership we had before. I guess nothing is forever, but with this so-called administration, it sure seems like it.
Speak for yourself, WTF BBQ. I happen to like their Queen myself, and I like their parliamentary system. And your racist comment about London is simply ridiculous. You've obviously never been there. You should try it sometime. You'd find it quite cosmopolitan (or is that a dirty word these days to "conservatives"?) but at the same time very English, naturally. Oh, and btw, I'm not familiar with all British protocol, but I don't think people bow to Queen Elizabeth. At least, I didn't notice anything like that at the wedding I watched a few months ago. You claim to bow to God and his son. Really? Do you think God would appreciate your racist inference about London? But perhaps you don't _read_ the Bible, just worship it like an idol, eh? Did you know there's a verse in there that says God "has made of one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth"? It's in Acts. That does include the Queen. Just sayin'... _And_ all those other brown people you apparently can't abide. If you're going to bow to God and his son, you might pay attention to what they said. It couldn't hurt. BTW, Luke 3:38 says _Adam_ was "the son of God." Makes sense, doesn't it? And since Adam actually means "mankind" in Hebrew (it's in Genesis 5), it looks like we're _all_ God's children. Again, just sayin'...
That was a beautiful a eulogy. Man, i miss him so much as our President. Mr McCain did right by asking Pres Obama and Bush to eulogist him, even Bush gave a beautiful eulogy and spoke so well, so refreshing to hear than what we currently have as our so called President. RIP Mr McCain.

McCain was one of the few Republicas most democrats respect and will continue to respect. His views are different, but his respect for others and patriotism are what a real American represent.

I really listen to this from time to time as well, every time I am sad. It gives me hop in life. This is what we should teach our children from young age. A mutual respect and still talk to each other despite our differences. Please, speak to each other respectfully.
After watching the Trump RNC last night, I came here to try and remember how we used to be. I voted for Mr. Obama twice and I’ll be voting for his Vice President Biden. Please, let’s get back to civility and respect...
Amen. I did as well. I have voted republican and democrat throughout my life. Increasingly democrat last 12 years and dt the state of republican party I won't live long enough to vote republican as I am old and ill. Either way, regardless of party affiliation, I would not and pray others to do the same. Please VOTE people. Vote for Biden or vote for your dog as long as you don't vote for Trump.
John Henry you do know that Trump knew about how deadly COVID was and didn’t tell the public and you do know that because of his incompetence by not issuing a federal mandate to wear a mask 😷, he wouldn’t have murdered so many fellow Americans, the pandemic could have been controlled AND Trump wouldn’t be in the hospital battling Covid-19 himself and he wouldn’t have infected most of the White House?

@@tr_j_012 Not to mention that Trump basically fabricated a leg injury to evade conscription into Vietnam.
Understandable!
@@bernaasuncion2729 I can understand evading conscription, but then turning around and criticizing American soldiers for getting captured is blatant hypocrisy and just plain disgusting.
@Kara Fangmeier This is the actual quote for the record:
"He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren't captured."
How there can be a single veteran or service member that supported Trump after saying something as shameful as that absolutely stuns me.
I remember that Senator McCain told directly to a woman who hated former president Obama. "We disagree on many issues, but he is a decent man"

I think it’s extremely telling that McCain asked President Obama, someone he ran against to speak at his funeral, while Donald Trump was barred from the funeral.

hope u r well ...i agree Mr Man Bun with what you have said ...the problem with Trump is , he thinks everyone still registered with the GOP, believes the nonsense he spews forth on a daily basis.
he forgets that folks like you MB even although you may be a proud Republican, you do not exist just to please him....i am a Scot so cant vote in November , but i implored the millions of decent Republicans with a great heart to LEND the Democrat your vote just ONE time in the 2018 mid terms .
with a record 9 million majority , many of you decent Americans must have put your already great country 1st
i implore you again bro & all whom share your sentiments, to please LEND your vote , one FINAL time to the Democrat , to save the very soul, of your great nation..
. stay safe & take great care of all the ones that you love, as this President so far has not & will not
People over party. Great human being.
Who is here after Joe Biden won the US Presidency? Tribute to John, the most decent Republican party nominee so far. What a sharp contrast he was from Donald Trump.
Seriously
John McCain’s wife is part of the Republicans Against Trump group. Which is good for her. I admire Republicans who are against Trump. And I consider myself a Democrat :)
Yup 👍 here because Biden’s speech today reminded me of McCain’s own concession speech when Barrack Obama won. This funeral was his last act as a human being, an effort to show America that he worked with both sides, because he wanted to best for the country he sacrificed so much for. It was his last act of service.
I needed to remind myself what it means to be a republican instead of a Trumplican
Looking for the conceding speech I ended up here. I knew about this eulogy but I never watched the whole thing.
OK. I'm from Canada, and I'm sitting here watching this with tears in my eyes. America what happened to you? Where have you gone?
Beats us, but cross your fingers for the unity in United States to make a comeback on November
Idk man. I'm wondering that myself.
white supremacy has taken over once again and we need to be saved 🤦🏽♂️

A great statement! Man beautiful.
Very well put!
Amen.🕊
Agreed. We need more people of integrity in American politics, regardless of platform.
Excellent that really quite sums it up
What a privilige John Mc Cain bestowed on President Obama in asking him to deliver his eulogy. He could have asked anyone including from his own party or the military but he chose President Barak Obama someone who seemingly he had very little in common except of course genuine patriotism and huge integrity. That says it all.
I think part of it was seeing what we have now in comparison. Would have made him respect obama that much more.
No surprise at all. both men with integrity and much love for America
he asked george bush as well, and both gave tremendous eulogies. my dad who is a democrat voted republican in all state elections soley because of this amazing and inspirational human being. I only knew the gravitas of his excellence after his passing however I will continue to research the legacy and greatness of this man
Even though they ran against each other, the two of them shared an immense respect for the other. They disagreed on a lot of things, but they could see that the person they ran against was worth respecting.
And President Obama is a brilliant speaker!
who is watching this in 2020 remembering what real statesmen are like?
that's me.
In the old days, as I have lived long enough to refer to my early youth as 'the old days'...I remember reading as a boy Republican Senator Everett Dirksen saying in opposition to LBJ's Great Society, "a billion here and a billion there; pretty soon we are talking about real money." Restrained. Dignified. And still to the point. All gone, now.
Obama the great....1000 years from now
Indeed....Today, if I were to write a book it would be titled "When boys go to war". We have so much immature leadership that is responsible for the lives of millions. We need maturity and responsibility back in this position.
@airraid713 you really need to stop demonizing the left. Not all on the right are bad either, it Trump is evil
I voted for Obama over McCain. I would vote for McCain over Trump 1000 times over.
I as well
I vote somebody with better policies that helps people, and that is clearly Trump, being president is not a personality show... If it was, then we would vote McCain.
On the other hand. McCain's running mate was not that impressive. If both Obama and McCain run for the president together, I would not care which is president and which is the vice president. I know at the end of the day, and after lots of argument, their combined decisions will be sound. The country will be going forward and people will be united under their leadership.
@@eliasziad7864 "Trump has better policies that helps people" LOL
You are too far gone, I'm afraid
@@eliasziad7864 Character, not personality, matters. I would have thought his supporters would have known this after these past 4 years. America has spoken and they have fired Trump.
I used to pride myself on being a RINO hunter (McCain among them), and I took Rush Limbaugh's advice to root for Obama to fail. But 4 years of Trump has opened my eyes, and now I would give anything for 100 John McCains in the Senate and a person with as even half of much character and decency in the White House as President Obama
Respect to you sir.
Honnestly, from a European perspective, you have no idea how the ideas defended by the Republican Party seem terrifying. People like Trump or Pence seem to believe that anyone who criticizes the current American system is a defender of the radical left, and yet they tolerate ideas among their own party that would seem extremist to a vast majority of european far-right leaders. Of course we can rejoice that people like Pence have deeply rooted convictions and aren't afraid to express it, but Republicans, as strongly as they may despise or fear the ideas of the Democrats, should understand that even people like Sanders are not so radical. Sanders goes approximately as far to the left as Sarah Palin goes to the right. And to keep the same constitution since the late 18th Century is a sign of such conservatism that even reformers ought to be radical. Anyway, I used to only feel hate and desprise for Republican values, and then I discovered John Mc Cain. If he had lived in a country where moderate conservative can developp a programm on their own, he would have been an amazing leader
Much respect! That’s hard to say, I’m sure.
@@Lena-1312 The EU crowd consistently says that the US is too far to the right without understanding that the entirety of the West is too far to the left, and also that America has drifted left from where it once was. If it's a matter of comparison, yes, the US is further right than EU on a number of issues, but if it's a matter of where you ought to be, it's really a matter of perspective. Acting as though the majority has to be correct is a total fallacy. And honestly, I think people from EU typically get a very poor education about US politics. The media heavily polices all information people receive from abroad, so someone from EU ought to be extremely skeptical about making strong claims about anything related to US politics. For example, your education about John McCain is sorely lacking.
We all make mistakes it’s what you do about those mistakes that really matters!

“we were on the same team...” never forget that statement friends.
Unfortunately Democrats and Republicans view themselves as opposing teams, as opposed to offense and defense of the same team.
Resonates so deeply today, when we are so divided over a health care issue, of all things--we are ALL on the SAME TEAM!! We need to work together. I felt this so deeply because so many in my family also disagree, but we never, ever forget that we are all on the same team! It allows us to talk and discuss and come to understand each other (doesn't mean agree, just understand). It brings us closer together, despite differences. That is America!
It speaks so much of McCain. To go to the White House on a regular basis to talk to the man that beat you. You don't see that very often. I remember that Obama had said on other occasions that he'd call John to the White House, or just plain call him, if he had questions about military issues, budgets, and stuff.
I also remember hearing that John McCain was one of his main counsels when he had to pick military leaders, or if there were issues that he just didn't understand or want to screw up. That's an awesome trait, and a rare one, in a POTUS. Admit that you don't know something. Admit that you want someone to counsel you.
we may disagree on ideology but we are all still americans - the same team.
@@tctopcat1981 I was in country Vietnam, 1967, 1968, ,& 1969. John McCann was a pow at the Hanoi Hilton, as it was referred to then, I being a sailor also we prayed and we were definitely going to do something to bring our men back home. I enjoyed the man McCann.

No such thing as a “good” president they all do very evil things. He’s a good speaker and cool guy but thats it.
I miss him and I'm not even from the US
As someone not from the US (and therefore probably a little bit more objective), I guess Obama will just go down as one of many. He was the first black president, and the coolest for sure. But being cool doesn't make you better or worse at your job, and Obama was good in many fields but bad in others (he should have never gotten the Nobel peace prize for example).
Donald Trump would never say this about any of his political opponents.

Don't fall for the language of Trump, there are not two sides which are equally bad. Trump is an authoritarian who runs on a dividing platform against a Man who has devoted his life to bipartisanship. Exactly In the spirit of John McKain!
@@friederkumpf8158 he insulted my race way to many times for me this year calling us thugs and un diverse... I voted independent until the Dems actually give a decent candidate
@@harleyyslade 💯
You must be very, very old. I can't recall the last time there was a good candidate running for president. Maybe Ron Paul?
As if China JoePEDO even qualifies for POTUS.
i keep coming back to a eulogy for comfort- that's crazy!
I feel ya
Did the same thing. Hes kind and articulate and soothing.
Thank You, Mr. President 😢 having kind words for a colleague, for an adversary, for a fellow American.
Chrissie K - you are a moron
Go Devils why are you so angry?
Class act Mr Obama!💙🇺🇸❤️
Petty Meme King - why are you so deceived?
@@SS-th9wz what exactly was moronic in my two sentences?
To everyone. This is the definition of a good person.
Amen!
As Republican as Arizona may be, they showed America that they would not take disrespect to one of it's people. Especially one who was a decroated war veteran. Thank you, Arizona for demonstrating loyalty to American values over partisanship of one's party. Thank You for being an example to us all.
Well said 👏🏼
What a great way for a president to speak. He showed what a president should speak to everyone. With grace and dignity.
The fact that John asked a democratic president to speak at his funeral says a lot about the kind of person he was. World class John and Obama.
@@kidrock4710 I thought his comment was positive. What did I miss?
Why wouldn't John ask him to speak? He was a democrat, too. I wonder if Obama would have shown his face if McCain supported Trump?
@@1940limited but John McCain was a republican?
Kyle: RINO!
I came here to remember the true men of service, and hear an eloquent orator.
Then you’re at the wrong Place !
Nasty.
Steve Sanzari no, not really.
Keep on hating ✌🏻
I did too! To remember what it was like to be inspired by a president
He is using a teleprompter.
Going thru these old speeches, they really light a fire in your soul to keep trying to be better! I hope we all succeed in being a better person!
RIP John McCain!
May I use this as a forum to just say that not all Republicans stand with Trump. Honestly, I don’t like democrats or their policies, but I could still respect Obama as a man and as a President. I cannot say that about Trump.
what is a policy Democrats have that you don't agree with?
I know many like you. I agree with you. Perfectly ok to have policy differences, but Obama brought dignity to the office and Trump dishonours the office daily.
And Im no republican , And I don't like their policies , But you don't know what America is about, if you cant respect a man, Who served this country as long and as well as the Late Great senator and war hero John Mccain.
Respect to you, sir
Noelia Jaime, I’m against attempts at
Universal Healthcare as I don’t think Democrats understand the extent to which universal healthcare will impact food policy, the agricultural industry, the pharmaceutical industry, or the insurance industry. Moreover their references to Europe are concerning as I don’t think democrats understand the extent to which European countries interfere and directly manage the health of their citizens, not to mention how small these nations are and the relative size of their various industries. In terms of climate change, well I agree with the scientific research proposing it is real and a threat, I despise the dismay with which democrats regard coal and oil workers as expendable. I mean i don’t think they understand how my father, a coal worker by trade, was expected to give up his livelihood as a miner and go move to a big city, only to become a janitor, in a time where he was supposed to retire. I don’t like unemployment subsidies, as I think democrats are more willing to concentrate on supporting those unemployed than actual building jobs for them to work. As i believe higher taxes drive away business to well Mexico and China. I despise democrats for their willingness to let in illegals, which I cannot understand. I mean we are a nation of laws, how are they so willing to violate them. Either change them or enforce them, you cannot avoid both. That said Trump’s cages are immoral and go against my values. I’m against increasing trade with China, a policy initiated by Democrats in the 90s and supported by Obama (as I was even before Covid), due to the fact that the regime violates democracy, and the rights of man. I could go on for ages.
What a beautiful speech. God bless you and your beautiful and wonderful family. You are truly missed.
He is missed all right.
"We never doubted we were on the same team." This line really stuck with me. It seems like recently we've forgotten this.
Communists do tend to stick together.
Yes, the team of democrats who have their country at heart, not themselves
You know you've done something right when everyone laughs on your funeral with tears in their eyes
This man was a real President, not like the arrogant clown they have now.
Im hoping that changes soon here.
balluumm1, I will completely lost my faith in America if they re-elected Trump 2020.
@mynameis mynameis america is at its worst point ever
All donald putin minion can say is a covfefe😂
@@anthonylong9067 Vote!
It seems like before Trump, most politicians were able to look past politics and respect each other. Obama and the Clinton’s at a republicans funeral and George Bush laughing with Michelle... Nowadays, things are just so divisive that it’s astonishing that this funeral was only 2 years ago.
I am not American , but believe me or not , whenever i feel down I listen to some Obama's speech which make me fresh again . Lovely man !
it's true
Me too i swear i did the same thing , god bless him
I love Obama and I miss him dearly. Ps. Trump makes me miss George Bush
Ditto.
Then you dont know the truth about him....so stay out of American politics if you are ignorant of them!!! Its equivalent to say im not German but i listened to Hitlers speeches and they were refreshing...not good!!!
This is the best eulogy I have ever heard: Touching, humorous, respectful.
I miss this thoughtfulness and empathy....dignaty...someone that puts the good of all the people ahead of spite and his need to be right and ego.....ugh.....for him to call while alive to ask his advisery to speak of him speaks volumes....prayers to the family he was a good man.
Dignaty is missig in Trump's tweets. He does not know what it means.
For those of you who forgot, this is what a president should sound like.
and what a president should BE like.
101%
SAY IT AGAIN! NAIL ON THE HEAD!!
@ralph lee =Cunt!
Sorry you feel that way, Ralph...I'm sure you like the chaos that's here now...
Please always remember that Donald Trump was president and did not attend / was not invited because of Trump's character.
@Ricardo S Man, you people make it a job to embarrass yourselves.
@Ricardo S Hahaha yeah we're not gonna play this game. You people seem to believe its a coincidence that every recent president that has held office is against him, not only that, but recent Republican nominees in McCain and Romney. But I get it. Pretty easy to say "everyone is lying on you", instead of looking at the why. That fits your narrative. But you got it bro, you win 🙂
Ricardo S I do not understand how anyone can support a single thing Trump says. I can’t think of a SINGLE thing Trump has said the past 4 years that is even true, let alone actually based on facts. I don’t care what your political leaning is, it’s quite a simple fact that he lies daily. You can read it for yourself directly from the man. If you say that he doesn’t lie to us every day you are lying to yourself and us. Why would I support someone who can’t even tell the truth? He resorts to character attacks on his opponents because he can’t actually debate with facts. He’s turned politics into a partisan circus of character attacks, lies, and extreme division. He’s weakened our image across the world because of this.
@nakedBison69 That's rich.
@Ricardo S Saved the housing marketing crash and got 20 million people healthcare. Need more examples?
I’ve watched this more than 10 times and I still come back to this when I need something to feel better. Today is one of those day as we anxiously wait for the final results!
RIP John McCain, What a truly honorable man, Arizona did you well sir!!
Greetings from the crown prince of Dubai and send me your email or Whatsapp number ok
"He made us (Bush and Obama) better presidents." McCain was the last decent Republican. The party of Lincoln died with him.
There is always a chance to bring it back!
Wow
It died with Nixon lol
Dont forget Mick Romney
Eli Lichtman not without a birth by fire it’s too gone to salvage now under trump and we need a complete new Republican Party that holds actual ideals and willing to work with the other parties instead of acting like children that the current party heads of it do
Great speech and eulogy Mr President. History will tell that you were one of America’s greats. We in Britain have always loved and admired you. Condolences to Mr MaCain’s family.
So your idea of a "Great" president is someone who can bring a country to its knees and lead it to the brink of collapse ?? Great logic there bro.......

It’s ok. We all know Trump is an idiot and I know this must hurt you to admit but it’s ok.
I was in the UK in June, and I asked several people I met in various places if we could just forget that whole Revolution thing and come back to be part of the British Commonwealth. I said we like your Queen! They all said they'd love to have us. :) I must say, if I didn't have grandchildren I'm rather enamored of, oh, and my own grown kids, I would consider it. Such a beautiful country, and the people are smart and friendly. I visited all four countries, including both parts of Ireland, and I just loved it. Of course, the weather was beautiful. Perhaps I might not like it so much if it were cloudy and rainy all the time.
Thank you for your comments here. I just wish we had the same level of leadership we had before. I guess nothing is forever, but with this so-called administration, it sure seems like it.
+Wendy
We don't like their queen, and we don't like to be part of Londonistan. We bow to no king or queen. We only bow to God and his son.
Speak for yourself, WTF BBQ. I happen to like their Queen myself, and I like their parliamentary system. And your racist comment about London is simply ridiculous. You've obviously never been there. You should try it sometime. You'd find it quite cosmopolitan (or is that a dirty word these days to "conservatives"?) but at the same time very English, naturally. Oh, and btw, I'm not familiar with all British protocol, but I don't think people bow to Queen Elizabeth. At least, I didn't notice anything like that at the wedding I watched a few months ago.
You claim to bow to God and his son. Really? Do you think God would appreciate your racist inference about London? But perhaps you don't _read_ the Bible, just worship it like an idol, eh? Did you know there's a verse in there that says God "has made of one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth"? It's in Acts. That does include the Queen. Just sayin'... _And_ all those other brown people you apparently can't abide. If you're going to bow to God and his son, you might pay attention to what they said. It couldn't hurt. BTW, Luke 3:38 says _Adam_ was "the son of God." Makes sense, doesn't it? And since Adam actually means "mankind" in Hebrew (it's in Genesis 5), it looks like we're _all_ God's children. Again, just sayin'...
That was a beautiful a eulogy. Man, i miss him so much as our President. Mr McCain did right by asking Pres Obama and Bush to eulogist him, even Bush gave a beautiful eulogy and spoke so well, so refreshing to hear than what we currently have as our so called President. RIP Mr McCain.
One man with self respect giving a eulogy to another man with self respect.
The world is reminded of what a REAL President sounds like. Wonderful man to listen to. Brilliant. I feel proud.
I'm sure he could recite names from a phone book and to you it would sound like brilliant policy.
Can't expect everyone to be civil and intelligent. Say something nice about someone and watch the haters and idiot loyalists fall from the sky to the comments section.
Can't expect everyone talking about civility whilst at the same time exhibiting incivility to be taken seriously.
@@4thHorsemanRides your comments sounds like guilt manifested. Just admit Barack speaks eloquently, while trump stumbles through sentences. No need for hatred. Try love. It works.
@@kwjuanedwards8518 I would ask what exactly you found hateful about my comment, or why you think I should feel guilty about anything, but I think we both know that you're just trolling, and judging. I'm not gonna troll you back, because I don't think you're a bad guy, but I do think you need new material.
If you can honestly tell me you found anything hateful about my comments then you're definitely overly sensitive, but I do appreciate legitimate feedback.
Ironically, I'm always defending Obama. I never had anything against him other than I just didn't feel he was qualified to be president, but I do like him as a person. Obviously, Trump is not an eloquent orator, but that's not why he was elected. Can you understand this? I'm the last person you should be accusing of being hateful. I don't hate you or Obama or anyone. I suggest you seriously consider taking your own advice about love.
The word bigly was not repeated once in this eulogy....RIP John McCain, you will be greatly missed.
can't kill anymore Americans ,...best player North Vietnam had !
w p fake comment
+maxglide not even a little, no profile pic troll
He will be missed BIGLY
😁😁😁
You are still my President, you give me hope, thank you for all your service, and your great eulogy for a great man, John McCain.
McCain was one of the few Republicas most democrats respect and will continue to respect. His views are different, but his respect for others and patriotism are what a real American represent.
absolutely--A real American
Yes
God I miss this man..
Listening to Obama after 2 years of full-on insanity, it's better than therapy.
Agreed. This is what a leader sounds like.
And then it ends, and our long national nightmare continues...
I agree!
I agree
Y B Just because you can actually understand Obama. Trump can’t put three words together let alone a full sentence without making a fool of himself. I don’t blame Trump, he is just not good enough for the job.
That's how a Real President Speaks...🎤
@ facts
@ how do u feel about that now? a 2.2 trillion dollar spender. Hmm... 260 billion to the common man. At best. you'll never get it though if you don't already. People who get things done don't boast about it. I'm betting you don't know that though.
Watching this after elections 2020. John McCain is smiling from above. Blessed to say he is my role model along with Lincoln 🎩
God bless the McCain Family. And God bless Barack Obama. What a beautiful eulogy. Our Country needs you right now, and your leadership.
God bless McCain, agreed! The VERY LAST THING this country needs is an anti-Christ like Obama!!! The TRULY EVIL person he is!!!!!
I listen to Obama again and again. He just makes me feel good. No matter the subject.
Suzie Que I feel same way too. Where you from? I’d like to know you.
So true. I've been listening to him this whole week. I'm not American but when this Man speaks, it's beautiful.
I come here from time to time to listen to a real President. What we have in the whitehouse now is trash.
Lizzy Borden when you get a chance listen to Obama’s great speech to the British Parliament
I really listen to this from time to time as well, every time I am sad. It gives me hop in life. This is what we should teach our children from young age. A mutual respect and still talk to each other despite our differences. Please, speak to each other respectfully.
A burning dumpster fire 🥵
One of the finest Sons that America has ever produced.
After watching the Trump RNC last night, I came here to try and remember how we used to be. I voted for Mr. Obama twice and I’ll be voting for his Vice President Biden. Please, let’s get back to civility and respect...
Drummer Girl 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💙💙🇺🇸
Amen. I did as well. I have voted republican and democrat throughout my life. Increasingly democrat last 12 years and dt the state of republican party I won't live long enough to vote republican as I am old and ill. Either way, regardless of party affiliation, I would not and pray others to do the same. Please VOTE people. Vote for Biden or vote for your dog as long as you don't vote for Trump.
John Henry you do know that Trump knew about how deadly COVID was and didn’t tell the public and you do know that because of his incompetence by not issuing a federal mandate to wear a mask 😷, he wouldn’t have murdered so many fellow Americans, the pandemic could have been controlled AND Trump wouldn’t be in the hospital battling Covid-19 himself and he wouldn’t have infected most of the White House? The most documented liar, tax cheat, grifter and con man ever “elected” to the presidency that has said a national treasure and war hero, Senator John McCain was neither because “he got captured” just proves what a joke and embarrassment he is.
@@drummergirl495 john mccain was not a nation treasure but a warmonger.
John Henry 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Trump is the president, not anyone else, you drank the kool aid and you don’t warrant another thought, but as a parting note, Trump supported the war...bye bye 👋🤣🤣🤣
For a sitting president to be banned from the funeral of a great American hero like Jonh McCain, says alot about how despicable of a man Trump is
They actually invited Trump, but he couldn't get permission from Putin.
.....and Barbara Bush's also.
