Editor's Note: This is an excerpt of Obama's Town Hall Meeting in Tampa Florida. In it he responds to a question from a University of South Florida student who asks a question about Obama's view of Israel's treatment of the people of Palestine. Watch Obama fumble. The entire audio of President Obama's speech is linked below the excerpt. He begins his speech by repeating his empty promises to U.S. workers after bailing out the banks and corporations and in the end, defends the capitalist system.
