Default Barbara Streisand endorses Hillary Clinton

Shortly after the announcement, Senator Clinton received a fax from Obama's campaign headquarters that read, 'People, people who have Oprah, are the luckiest people in the world'.

Wait.. has Kevin Bacon backed a candidate yet?

We know who Oprah and Chuck Norris support, it is all resting on Kevin Bacon now.

Default Who cares?

I respect Chuck Norris and we probably believe in many of the same ideals. Bottom line is this, they vote same as I do and you. What makes them so special? Must be money, face time on T.V., fame. Tell me, in your life what difference does that make and will their opinions affect how you vote? If it does you are more weak minded than I care to imagine. No wonder we are going down the tubes; no one thinks for themselves, no one follows the authority of the Bible. Sure the Bible has absolutes, but in our material world we can and must use those absolutes to help us, guide us in our choices, not Hollywood "stars"(?). They (Hollywood) is only as powerful as we allow them to be. It seems (sadly) that we give far too much power and influence to those "idiots" in Hollywood.
Please; remember, they are no better or worse than any of us. The only difference is money and face time on the T.V. Do not give them more power or influence than you would....say.....me. Use your common sense. Do not let them fool you or you will beome one!

Default Streisand

Streisand might get Hillary a bit of money, but she has a history of non-sensical rants so hopefully she won't try to speak for Hillary. Oprah has a huge following and can sway mega-people. I guess Bill is stumping for Hillary now. Problem is he spends so much time talking about himself he forgets he's supposed to be talking about his "wife."

Default Hollywood endorsements

>They (Hollywood) is only as powerful as we allow them to be.

Couldn't agree more. The whole celeb endorsement thing makes the process feel a High School student council campaign. The problem is that many Americans are influenced by these voices, because we are so willing to let other people think for us. But all in all, the internet has leveled the playing field in a huge way, not because one voice can speak to so many, but because so many can raise their voices.

Default And Paris

And who is Paris going to support. After seeing Paris's last video, I think she is better qualified than Babs.

Default Hey Babs!





I heard on news radio that she supports Clinton because she is a prime example of what women can accomplish in American.

C'mon, what a stupid reason to support a candidate. That's about as irrelevant as it gets.

Default The sex organ factor

Unfortunately you can't discount that a significant percentage will vote for her simply because they share the same sex organs.

The result:
Quote:
By the mid-19th century unique had developed a wider meaning, “not typical, unusual,” and it is in this wider sense that it is compared. The comparison of so-called absolutes in senses that are not absolute is standard in all varieties of speech and writing.
