In yet another shocking video of the cult following of Barack Obama, we witness a crowd exclaiming “Hear our cry, Obama” and “Deliver us, Obama!” during a speech from a clergywoman. Invoking the prophet Jeremiah and prophet Martin Luther King, Jr., a clergywoman advocates for health care for all. The transcript is below.
TRANSCRIPT:
CROWD: EVERYBODY IN, NOBODY OUT! (walking into building)
CLERGYWOMAN: We are here for the healing of the nation.
CROWD: YES!
CLERGYWOMAN: With the prophet Jeremiah, we cry out. Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then has the health of my poor people not been restored?
CROWD: HEAR OUR CRY, OBAMA! (some say “OH GOD”)
CLERGYWOMAN: With the prophet Martin Luther King, Jr., we cry out: Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is most shocking and inhumane!
CROWD: HEAR OUR CRY, OBAMA! (again some say “OH GOD”)
CLERGYWOMAN: From health care systems and industries that place profit over people.
CROWD: DELIVER US, OBAMA! (again some say “OH GOD”)
CLERGYWOMAN: From lobbying efforts that block access to quality health care to all.
CROWD: DELIVER US, OBAMA! (again some say “OH GOD”)
CLERGYWOMAN: From greed and fear that replace the reality of God’s abundance and the power of community with a mix of scarcity and isolation.
CROWD: DELIVER US, OBAMA! (more people start to say “OH GOD”)
CLERGYWOMAN: From scapegoat-ism of immigrants, from blaming the poor, from all simple attitudes which deem health care as a right of the privileged rather than a basic human right
CROWD: DELIVER US, OH GOD (fewer people can be heard saying “OBAMA”)
CLERGYWOMAN: Protect all those who face illness without good health care insurance.
CROWD: *sings* “OH WHEN THE SAINTS GO MARCHING IN…”
