Oprah is a democrat and in the past trying to show journalistic fairness by interviewing both candidates backfired on her. Many americans had the impression that George Bush interview by Oprah during the 2000 campaign advance his candidacy and gained him voters among her viewers. Chris Rock told her so on a show not long after Bush won the presidency. She is not about to take the same road and use her forum to get Palin elected. That’s fine, it just reduces her from a journalist to a “talk show host”.

I like Oprah but she has way to much influence on people when she just opens her mouth. Just because she’s a celebrity doesn’t mean she knows whats best for the country. If she want to use her show to endorse someone she should give the other side equal time. I think she might have her hands full with Sarah Palin.This is also true for all the other celebs who endorse political candidates. Some of these people (Not Oprah) are dumber than a bag of rocks.

Why isn’t anyone really addressing the fact that Oprah’s decision is rooted in discrimination? Why else would she sit and CRY at the nomination? She is enamored with 1) the potential of a BLACK president (discriminating) and 2) her POWER that helped get him there. People need to wake up and pay attention to this… This is a foretelling about what to expect MORE of should he be elected… ESPECIALLY coupled with his Islamic, Anti-American and discriminatory associations. Many years of retribution for what America has ‘done to blacks’ (negating Obama’s natzi-ish, minority irradicating support of abortion)… If he is elected, we better hope the balance of powers is balancing…

This discrimination is THE MAIN concern many of us have about his potential presidency. More taxes, bigger ‘government’ (ie. ‘programs’ = handouts that only promote more poverty, dependency and less freedoms)

the reason oprah endorsed barrack obama is that she finally met a politician who inspired her. pity the same can’t be said of any other politician. you have to give barrack credit for he is inspirational, a born leader and is offering a real alternative to the average americian . oprah was really taken by obama and even encouraged him to run for the top job before he annoused his candinacy.

oprah left that church many years before barrack annoused his candinacy. so jeremah wright has nothing to do with it, even thou you would love to link j. wright to the both of them. instead of calling jeremiah wright a wacko why don’t you address his claim, even thu his claim are far reaching. but his claim on USA foreign policies i think have some validity.

IT’S SIMPLE,

WHY WOULD SHE PROMOTE MISS PALIN WHILE SHE IS PROMOTING OBAMA.THAT WOULD BE LUDACRIS OFCOURSE.

AND SPEAKING OF MISS PALIN SHE TALKS ONLY ABOUT McCAIN HIS RECORD BUT NOT THE REAL ISSUES.WOULD YOU GIVE HER AIRTIME FOR THAT?

OFCOURSE NOT

I hope the African American community will take a retrospect glance back to the 1992 Rodney King Riots and research the brave churches (Black, White, Mexican and many other different cultures) that risked their lives in South Central LA, to help victims in the aftermath of the riot, poor churches that’s only reward was Goodwill. Oprah Winfrey showed her compassion from a distance in an areal view from her helicopter instead of on the ground connecting with the residents of Compton and South Central LA. Was she Too elite for the folks who didn’t live her magazine lifestyle, the churches weren’t.

If Oprah was truly for empowerment of women she would have supported Hillary in the first place. It is so obvious that her choice is based solely on colour. But if someone (read white population) were to oppose Obama, he/she would be branded as a racist. What Oprah is doing is blatant racism, at its worst.
This should prove to people that Oprah is not really honest when it comes to her motives, she has her own secret agenda. I totally agree with Richard (post # 15) in that regard.
Her open show of support for Obama cost her a lot of viewership, and I truly hope this boycott of Sarah Palin costs her even more.
The elitist – racist side of OPrah has been exposed.

As I sit here (a africian american women) and read your postings, it’s really sad. You want to talk about being racist. Racist is when you would rather die before you elect a black president. Racist is when you are willing to vote for a white women with no experience, before you elect a black president. Give me a break. Palin can not run her own family. White america has looked down their noses at black families for the very same thing that Palin is experiencing. Teenage pregnancy. But when it is a white female, then white american seems to think that it is okay. Why can’t you guys be fair. If it was barack obama’s child. You would have called her every name in the book. You people need to take a good look in the mirror. Im sooo proud to be black. You will never know what it is like to have been raised to see people for who they are. Not what they are. YOU PEOPLE CAN’T HELP IT. I feel sorry for you. You have a problem and you dont even know it. SORTA LIKE A DRUG ADDICT KNOWING THEY HAVE A DRUG PROBLEM, BUT REFUSES TO ADMIT IT. It’s okay to like Presient Obama. Your skin wont change color.

What is a Presient?

O YES I THING SARAH HAS ALOT ON THE BALL AND WILL BE AGREAT VP. AND LATER ON A PRESIDENT

I must agree with Leah’s statement about experience. I don’t support either side because of their pathway to citizenship for the supposed 12 million (probably closer to 20) illegals in this country. The Democratic party had 8 years to come up with a viable candidate to run for president and the best they could come up with is a feel good guy with no experience doing anything substantial. Unless maybe you want to count all of those present votes. What a shame.

I am in love with your quality articles! I wish I had time and patience to make my blog like yours. Thanks for the informative information you share. Bookmarked your blog.

Is it a surprise to anybody that anything anybody does during this election suddenly becomes an act of racism?
