6. When you begin naming those that support either candidate,
the one name which stands out among the others is one of the most respected civil rights leaders of today. The person is Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) There had to be something Mr Lewis saw in Obama that others did not see which enabled him to support Senator Hillary Clinton. There is one huge difference when supporting a candidate based only on one's race, or gender.

I do not believe Oprah's support will amount to much.
