looks to me like a lot of racism coming out of the wood work on hear just because Oprah for the first time wants to publicly support a candidate who just happens to be black and from what I see on hear people are upset.DAMN and I thought the democratic party was inclusive.

1. Nah...
It's always the same handful who start that kind of stuff.

Plenty of O&O love going 'round, too.... :)

2. If everyone on Earth consumed like Oprah does, all life on Earth would end in 3 weeks.

She's just not cool anymore, bigdarryl, especially to conscientious humans who don't give a shit about celebrity.

3. It's more like disgust that she would use her vast influence
to alter the political process. No celebrity should have that kind of power and I would say so no matter which candidate she backed, even if it had been Hillary. I think that her involvement is inappropriate and might even produce a backlash.

4. I am not the greatest speller in the world but....
it's Here not Hear, Hear as in ear. Here as in DU.

But yes there's a lot of hatred for Oprah all of a sudden. I Never liked her myself, but it has nothing to do with Obama.
