Oprah is working hard for Barack Obama. Will the worlds most powerful television host be able to get Obama elected? Also, should she use her popularity and status to try and get Obama in the white house? People listen to Oprah time will tell if they also listen to her on this.

Ugh! this makes me sooooo mad!! not saying that he is a bad guy for president because i do not know but i do know that the fact that she is up there it will blind the people to the fact that he may not be the best person for the job....and for him to have her do this makes me feel as if he is not confident in himself wich makes for a bad president anyway!. and also the fact that he would ALLOW her to persuede others to choose him makes me think hes a cheater....i am beginning not to like him.

I agree with some of your post, I do think people will be persuaded by Oprah. I just hope it won't have a huge impact. I'm not sure cheerleaders should be given much weight at the polls.

Most definately she'll push Obama far pass Clinton. I think that with out her help he probibl doesn't have that much of a shot against the old hag. Sorry not much of a fan of hers. I hope that people do listen to Oprah on this one.

I hope people listen to the candidates and what they stand for. Whoever takes over, will have a tough job ahead of them.

It seems like anything goes in US politics. I remember seeing George Bush interviewed on David Letterman. He came across as a nice sort of guy - and I'm sure that helped to engender some votes for him. Obama has a growing support base. He is a very unique personality. Oprah's support will definitely help - but to what extent who knows.
