The Vote
The big talk right now is about which celebrity is endorsing which candidate for president.
These are the ones I have heard about:
Celebrities who support Hillary Clinton include Anne Rice, Barbra Streisand, Rob Reiner, Steven Spielberg, and John Grisham.
Oprah Winfrey is endorsing Barack Obama.
Those who sanction Rudy Giuliani include Robert Duvall, Ron Silver, and Pat Robertson.
Chuck Norris supports Mike Huckabee.
I haven’t heard anyone else’s opinions, but I’m sure I will once the election draws closer.
My question for you is this: does a celebrity endorsement have any effect on the way you will vote?
For me, it’s all in the values of the candidate and has absolutely nothing to do with what so-and-so thinks. I have my own thoughts and feelings just like they do. After all, celebrities are just people too.
But, I would like to hear how you feel on the issue. If you think a certain celebrity’s opinion matters to you enough to sway your vote, let me know!

celeberty indorsments make no difference in my vote. Just cause you are rich doesn't mean you know how to vote.

I couldn't care less what any celebrity thinks. I don't know why the U.S. puts so much weight on celebrities. They are ordinary people just like you and me. They don't know anything more than us, and their opinion shouldn't count any greater than ours.

Knowing which celebrities are supporting particular candidates really comes as no surprise, does it? You can pretty much guess which way people in Hollywood will go. The majority of them are going to support the democratic candidates. It certainly does not matter to me which way they vote because I think the majority of celebrities are going along with the crowd anyway. I don't like to get into political debates, but I will say that I pray to God that Hillary does NOT win.
