Great Choice with the mark II. It's good to see you guys revealing some more technical specs.

Good stuff.

I just love it. It's so beautiful !!!

Very nicely done!

Awesome video. Keep on working hard Obama.

nice!!!

Im reading The Audacity Of Hope and its clear to see you havent lost touch with the outside world. Even though you are surrounded by the biggest security cordon in the world, you still seem approachable, and I live in the UK! Your book really portrays it and im glad to know you have stuck to your roots.

wow.

How did you rec the audio?

How can he read all those letters without a bottomless box of tissues by his desk? I hope he turns out to be the best president who ever lived. The yanks need this kind of guy and the world needs a US which looks to him to be the example.

Way to go White House! I love the way this administration is trying to keep in touch with the public. I too agree that it was great to see the specs of the cameras listed here. Keep it up Prez!

inspiring stuff!!

the WWII story at the end was unreal...

There's already enough politics in my life without having others shove it down my throat

Great work..

I think Obama has read more letters in 6 months than Bush in 8 years :D

So cool I like it

I love that he takes the time to do this every day.

Go Obama!

Nice !
Our human hope is deposed on you Mr.Obama
Thamks a lot !

The fools of this country put there trust into a man they think is great simply because he is said, "hope," and "change," and then simply expect good things to happen. If Obama was not liberal, he would have never been elected. His heritage just put the icing on the cake.

Good Luck.

Thank you, Mr. President.

Lefty!

Beautifully shot and well put together. Glad you have someone talented on staff to produce this. Great idea and execution.

America elected the right guy! I thank you as a citizen of the rest of the world!

very nice

That's so cool! :) Thanks to the White House and Mr. Obama!

We need a president like Obama where in my country our president as Alzeimer for sure and he falls a sleep in important events :-(

Cool. Did you use tilt&shift-lenses on the 5D?

impressionnant !

I like Obama, but i must admit it is a little weird to see a US-President who talks like a sane person.

I am from outside the US and started following international news during the Bush years, so you can imagine what my first impression about americans was. I mean i remenber seeing clintons face on TV when i was a kid, but i did not understand english back then, so that does not count.

Anyway, nice to see, you got out of the insane asylum, USA!

This is why we voted for Obama, he is concerned about us. Just hold on and in a few months this entire recession will be over.

A really inspirational video... A bit like the West Wing I guess...

Cool piece and cool to see the White House using "DV Rebel" cameras like the mkII and EX3.

the audacity of hype

Vimeo should remain party neutral. After all both parties are against the common citizen. Sadly Vimeo has latched onto the whitehouse.gov site and is promoting its videos over art.

amen, Mike Bustillos....

@Mike Bustillos & randall kincaid

I don't think you understand how Vimeo works.

1) Someone signs up for Vimeo.
2) They get to use Vimeo.

Anyone, including Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Communists, Socialists, Buddhists, Christians, vegetarians, carnivores, and even nature lovers like yourselves, are allowed to use this wonderful tool.

Why not create some pieces to tell the other side of the story? You guys should shoot some videos about Sarah Palin. I'd love to see what she's been up to lately.

Wow! Never knew there were so many Kool-Aid drinkers on this site! Nicely done vid. Poorly chosen topic.

I voted for You in the primary election , & proudly voted for You in the general election,too.
YES WE CAN , ENERGY BILL+ HEALTHCARE "REFORM"

AND YES WE WILL.....IT'S LONG OVERDUE!
GREAT JOB WITH THE VIDEO,REALLY!!

If there are English subtitles,that will be better.

At least I learned something about the inner workings of the White House staff. I think perhaps previous presidents have also done this, so for me this is nothing new and wasn't miraculously thought up by our present pres.

The question is: Who can have it more: Mr. Obama letters or me beers? I got idea for my next video...

Amazing.

I guarantee that Obama does not get my emails or faxes. I am sure anybody disagrees with his communist agenda will not have their views heard by this so called president.

Our nation is on the brink of total destruction and this illegal unconstitutional so called president must be removed from this office he has obtained fraudulently. If he is a natural born citizen, then he needs to prove it and also release his college records which will show us he attended as a foreign student from Indonesia.

The gig is up and the truth is out.

it's great to see this candid 'behind the scenes' footage, we need more videos like this!

Obama is wonderful. This makes me want to write to him :)

Really wonderful video: I love that this was a presidental docuemnatry interview that didn't feel over-produced, just casual, available light, un-rehersed dialogue.

5DmkII seals the deal here, cinematic look is stunning.

Good piece. Beautiful video quality nice story. Keep on keeping on Mr. President....you have the weight of the world on your shoulders. To whom much is given...much is required...America!
