    I find it weird that Oprah W. has decided to BACK 100% as well as giving tons of Money to the Barack Obama Campaign!!

    Should a talk show host with her kind of influence be doing this??

    Why is she doing this??

    Is she trying to change the Women's vote % for Hillary clinton??

    I would love to hear your opinions on this!!!! :D

    Oprah knows the kind of power she has, and she's never held back because she has too much influence. Look at all the crappy books she has this country reading (alright, she's picked a few gems, but also a lot of junk). People follow her, because a lot of people don't want to think for themselves.

    She can do whatever she wants, influential people back candidates all the time...

    I'm not sure of the reasons she would give, but I'm sure skin-color and the countries need for "change" is atleast a small part of it...

    You'd have to ask her...

    Well I guess that skin color could be a factor although I personally will NOT touch that one but rather the harm that it will do for Hillary!!

    I thought that Oprah had about a 90% female audience and so I just found it odd.

    Yes. and thats the problem!!

    I realize that a Celebrity has the right to choose whichever president they would like to back, if any, but SHE is making such a Public Scene about it that you wonder why she is actually doing it?

    Is it because she is suddenly interested in Politics!

    I think if she was then she would just run for President herself and heck, she would probably win!!

    Barack Obama has my vote in the primary. If I was a billionaire I would have a huge $1kplus per plate dinner at my mansion too.

    I might as well, and I think Barack is a pretty good guy but the Oprah thing just bothers me because I just think that she has everyone fooled and I don'y really care for her despite the many good things that she does to help people and orginizations!!

    It just seems to me that she has an alterior motive!!! :rolleyes:

    I spoke my mind and now I am DONE!! :D

    Dude would you relax? Jeez. What's the difference between Obama and Clinton. NADA!!! NADA!!!

    Stop harassing Oprah and go harass the people behind the scenes who give $$$ to these dummies so they can use these dummies for their own cause. Oprah is doing it in public let her.

    just another case of a celebrity thinking that they have more power and can actually run the country...many celebs in hollywood think the same thing...especially when it comes to being anti-Bush.
