Stewf: i am a political genius
Stewf: if kerry campaign could get oprah on board, wouldn’t he win?
Eric: heh, a segment, but it would be dangerous for Oprah to play that game
Eric: her market is across the board
Eric: and it might polarize her audience
Eric: and thus her advertisers
Eric: but don’t let that stop you from phone, emailing, and snail mailing her offices until your fingers bleed
Eric: her support would be amazing
Stewf: they will do whatever she says
Stewf: the oprah heads
Eric: I’d like to see an oprah medusa with little yes men snake heads snapping around her in a slithering flow
Eric: her eyes glow red, throwing up her hands, “Kerry will win!”

I can tell you loved Michale Moore's "Dude, Where's My Country?" too. the "Oprah for President" chapter made me giggle.
I am an unapologetic Michael Moore fan.

Well, I bet if John Kerry gave a brand new car to everyone who voted for him, he would be loved quite a lot too.
But I think Oprah should be president and she could tell of her plans and new policies for the country on her show while talking to Brad and Jennifer about their new movie together. Maybe this would get people interested in politics again.

It's Oprah's fault Bush is president.

Exactly, Jess. We have Oprah to credit or blame for anything good or bad that happens in this country.

Do you think we could maybe blame her for the drought? AIDS? My stunning lack of chocolate this morning?

Jess is right. Oprah and Ralph Nader bare most of the responsibility for Bush becoming president. Al Gore's campaign officials ran a poor campaign, but he still managed to win the popular vote and if it weren't for Oprah's fawning over Bush, there would be no question of who won the White House. So don't expect any help from that sell-out bitch.

Js - I hope you don't think I was being sarcastic. Mine was a semi-exaggerated statement of the grip mainstream media has on our nation.
