Someone please tell Mike Doughty that Bush is NOT running for President..maybe he should have stayed in school ? or mayed stayed off drugs ?
carole curtisat 4-05-2008
Well,I would say that the majoriety or 98% of all Black voters are for Obama. Who said this isn't a race thing.
If you think it not your kidding yourself.

I love Sir Elton, but he's British and I couldn't care less which candidate he supports. He doesn't have a say in the matter.

So, only Burt Bacharach is for McCain. That's probably the only bit of interesting information in this whole pro-BARACK/HILARY puff piece.

Don't really care about the "celebs" and their twisted political viewpoints, but wasn't surprised. Did you notice the pattern?
WHOCARESat 4-05-2008
Why bother commenting if your comment is.
Who cares?
You do or you wouldnt have not only read the artical but took the time to comment then read your mail and click a link?
By the way Im voted for whoever Mary Cary votes for.

I will make up my own mind about the candidates, but
if women supported Hillary like the black race is
supporting Obama, who is clearly not ready for prime
time, she would win by a land slide. I believe there
are much more qualified black leaders out there that
I would be able to support. Just not Obama. He talks
the talk, I just don't think he will be able to walk the walk.

Good to know, so i won,t waste my money on their crappy music anyways

Burt Bacharach is for McCain? Ok I can see that.

Typical...no one but Obama and Clinton mentioned until # 68 out of 80...and then, only the redneck, knuckle-draggin', homophobic, mean-spirited moron country singers are listed as supporting a Republican. To top it all off, only one out of 80 supports the de facto Republican nominee, John McCain. Way to go AOL...not obvious at all. Of course. I only recognized about 1/3 of these "stars" and I could NOT carem less what any of these shallow people "think". None of the non-country "stars" would have the guts to stand up and say they support a non-Democrat anyway. And, no surprises, the blacks practically all support Obama along with most of the younger women. Hillary has most of the older women and older men and about half of the younger men. Who woulda thunk?
Oh, here's an idea: lets kiss the rear of every country out there that doesn't like us, let's elect someone who has about three years real experience in government...no, no...let's add socialized medicine to our already doomed-to-fail social security and medicair/medicaid entitlement programs. (We just need to raise taxes and soak the rich...ya know, the one's that run companies, hire people, provide benefits and stimulate the economy? Those wicked profit makers!)
Let's give a man a fish...not teach him to catch one. Let's do what feels good, not what's right. We wouldn't want to have to make any hard choices that may leave this country on solid ground for our children and grandchildren. Let's appease the vote whores and vote for the pretty, handsome, slick, smooth-talking liars with no substance. They'll sound good and look good as they lead our country down a road scattered with good intentions, but paved with ruin. Thanks for your deeply informed endorsements, all you celebs out there!

It's obvious that whoever wrote this is Democrat. This is the kind of stuff that makes me want to vote for whomever the media does NOT like.
Gloriaat 4-05-2008
The common thread that runs through these comments is that most of you can't spell, wouldn't know a moral if it slapped you in the face (read -- orefer your right-wing family values pols to stay in the closet), think that any view that is different than yours is "twisted" and can't get your facts straight. Burt Bacharach is for Obama.
*Meadow*at 4-05-2008
All candidates are not qualified, but they seem so because are desperate to rid Bush.
tnaat 4-05-2008
Vote for who YOU think is right for the job. MOst of these people have no clue what any of the candidtates stand for, they just open thier traps when some one asks them a question. And I'll almost bet NONE OF THEM EVEN VOTE!!!!
