Fortunately, some americans still get it...Finally there may be some hope to save this country!
"I am glad to be here today for this voter registration drive and for Barack Obama, the next President of the United States.
"I've spent 35 years writing about America, its people, and the meaning of the American Promise. The Promise that was handed down to us, right here in this city from our founding fathers, with one instruction: Do your best to make these things real. Opportunity, equality, social and economic justice, a fair shake for all of our citizens, the American idea, as a positive influence, around the world for a more just and peaceful existence. These are the things that give our lives hope, shape, and meaning. They are the ties that bind us together and give us faith in our contract with one another.
" I've spent most of my creative life measuring the distance between that American promise and American reality. For many Americans, who are today losing their jobs, their homes, seeing their retirement funds disappear, who have no healthcare, or who have been abandoned in our inner cities. The distance between that promise and that reality has never been greater or more painful.
"I believe Senator Obama has taken the measure of that distance in his own life and in his work. I believe he understands, in his heart, the cost of that distance, in blood and suffering, in the lives of everyday Americans. I believe as president, he would work to restore that promise to so many of our fellow citizens who have justifiably lost faith in its meaning. After the disastrous administration of the past 8 years, we need someone to lead us in an American reclamation project. In my job, I travel the world, and occasionally play big stadiums, just like Senator Obama. I've continued to find, wherever I go, America remains a repository of people's hopes, possibilities, and desires, and that despite the terrible erosion to our standing around the world, accomplished by our recent administration, we remain, for many, a house of dreams. One thousand George Bushes and one thousand Dick Cheneys will never be able to tear that house down.
"They will, however, be leaving office, dropping the national tragedies of Katrina, Iraq, and our financial crisis in our laps. Our sacred house of dreams has been abused, looted, and left in a terrible state of disrepair. It needs care; it needs saving, it needs defending against those who would sell it down the river for power or a quick buck. It needs strong arms, hearts, and minds. It needs someone with Senator Obama's understanding, temperateness, deliberativeness, maturity, compassion, toughness, and faith, to help us rebuild our house once again. But most importantly, it needs us. You and me. To build that house with the generosity that is at the heart of the American spirit. A house that is truer and big enough to contain the hopes and dreams of all of our fellow citizens. That is where our future lies. We will rise or fall as a people by our ability to accomplish this task. Now I don't know about you, but I want that dream back, I want my America back, I want my country back.
"So now is the time to stand with Barack Obama and Joe Biden, roll up our sleeves, and come on up for the rising."

We knew you were a stupid moron....but not at the point of expecting you could have something connecting you and Springsteen's music!
It's like going to concert of James Brown and understanding 2 weeks after that he is black!
How can someone be that dump!?

Bruthey, you live in Rumson NJ, and you're shit-eating grin rich! You spend most of your time at horsey shows and live the life of a fucking Fortune 500 CEO!
So just because you wear a flannel fuckin' shirt and Talk about the "Workin' Man" doesn't make you more like the common American man.
You ever work a loading dock (or 3) or a short-order line, Bruce? Didn't think so! The Boss. Shit, This motherfucker hasn't been The Employee in his life!
Stick to your shitty make-believe music Bruce. A four-hour prison rape or constipation-athon. Take your pick.

Been there, Done that, muzzie cocksmoker!
Now get back to your G5 jet, and your second wife, and your mega-mansion(s), and your SOTA in-house music studio, and your cars and the clubs and bars.
Cus' people are hip to your lunchpale, hardhat, hard luck horseshit. It's played Out. Over. Done. Finished.
Ya' know. All that I'm a 'working class' guy stuff?
Ps. Take your 'soul patch', and your big red nose, and clown shoes, and flannel shirts, and shove em' up your ass if there's any room left once Hussein's cock is up in there too.

Hyperbolic bullshit. I suggest this NJ idiot go read about the Great Depression or the Carter Administration fucking up the economy so bad that the Prime Interest Rate hit 21.5%.

My best friend's father's girlfriend works for the agency in NY that does the bookings and other tasks for entertainers like Springsteen. They know him well. In real life he is not a nice human being and lives rather differently than his pious statements about social justice.
People who hang on the words of entertainers are sheep.

You're fucking right.
Now replace the word entertainers by Pop, Priests, Bishops, Imams, Rabbis, GW Bush, Sarko, and I completly agree with you
