Brave New Films: The Oprah Effect

Arlen · 2 years ago

Cute video, but if Obama's skin was the only reason why Oprah endorsed him, then why didn't she endorse Alan Keyes in 2000? Or Jesse Jackson when he ran twice in the 1984 or 1988? Or Al Sharpton in 2004? Or Carol Moseley Braun in 2004?

Oh yeah, I forgot that Keyes ran in 1996 as well.

And none of those folks ever had a real chance of winning. So yeah, it's not the *only* reason.

I kind of don't want to think that video is funny...but it is.
