Maya Angelou Thinks Barack Lacks Experience
Filed under: Politik > Barack Obama > Hillary Clinton
One of Oprah Winfre's favorite people in the world, Maya Angelous has come out in support of Hillary.
The Clinton campaign is featuring the esteemed poet in a new radio commercial featuring her distinctive and captivating voice.
Says Angelou:
“As a child, Hillary Clinton was taught that all God’s children are equal, so as a mother she understood that her child wasn’t safe unless all children were safe.
I know what kind of president Hillary Clinton will be because I know who she is. Hillary Clinton has always been a strong woman and a passionate protector of families. For 35 years, that’s exactly what she has been doing.
Each generation of African Americans stands on the shoulders of those who came before. Today, the challenges facing us threaten the dreams we have had for our children. We need a president with the experience and strength to meet those challenges.
I am inspired by Hillary Clinton’s commitment and courage — a daughter, a wife, a mother — my girl.”



barack, is an idiot
vote 4 shitney spears
crazy girl gonna get puked on
work is 4 the birds
LMAO! look at Bill on the far left! He looks so happy it's hilarious!
first!
umm ever heard of spell check???
uhoh
women or negro??? is america ready for either…..
OSAMA OBAMA DOES LACK EXPERIENCE.
SO DOES HILLARY!
IF YOUR HUSBAND IS AN ELECTRICIAN DOES THAT MEAN YOU CAN DO HIS JOB? HILLARY ACTUALLY HAS NEVER ACCOMLPISHED ANYTHING! IF YOU REALLY LOOK AT HIS OOPS HER RECORD.
IF YOU WANT TO PROTECT OUR COUNTRY THEN OPEN YOUR MIND TO FACTS AND NOT THE LYING LIBERALS FACTS. THEY DONT WANT AMERICANS TO SUCCEED IN LIFE. THEY ARE CRAP. THEY ARE LIKE SOCIAL COMMUNISTS. PLEASE EDUCATE YOURSELFS MORE ABOUT THEM. DONT STAY IGNORANT AND GET YOUR "FACTS" FROM LIBERAL STATIONS, OPEN YOUR MIND UP, AFTERALL ARENT YOU SUPPOSE TO BE TH EOPEN MINDED PARTY? LMAO. SO OPEN MINDED THAT YOUR COMMEN SENSE FELL OUT????
Stop this shit, Perez. Hillary is in retreat so you keep piling on this crap, ignoring the great things that Obama has gained in the last few days, including endorsements from the Kennedys. Give me a break! Barack is what is RIGHT for this country. He has the power to UNITE. People like you are only driving others AWAY from unification and into partisan and meme-based bickering. SHAME ON YOU.
first!! ciao
Isn't this bitch an actress??? Who fucking cares what she thinks.
haha, look at bill's face in the background
1st??!!
Perez, why haven't you gotten back to me about the Britney pics? Anyways, you have my cell and e-mail so get back to me by 2pm today. Thanks sweety.
AHAHAAHAHA CAN U SEE BILL SMILING BACK THERE CALM DOWN LOVE, SHES CHATTING ABOUT YOUR WIFE NOT YOU!!
Is she gonna be in trouble by her black friends? I know oprah wont be feeling this at all. it amazes me how stupid people here are.
all the democrats suck.
FIRST!!
firsty?
I hope this pisses Oprah off, I do not like Barak and I think he would be a horrible president. Hilary has what it takes, and she will get my vote without a doubt!
She just wants to get Barak in the sack, to give him the "sexperience" he needs. A yummy Oprah, Maya sandwich. It's all you Obama.
AAHAHAAHA CAN YOU SEE BILL SMILING BACK THERE SHES CHATTING ABOUT YOUR WIFE NOT YOU DIDNT HE CHEAT ON HER???
first
Go Obama! 2008! Down with hillary shes got experience changing her opinion and lying to cover up messes, more of the same…
Vote Obama!
she should support OBAMA he is HOTTER. FIrst?
NOT HILLARY!!!
i'm surprised she is endorsing her. huh
Obama DOES lack experience but I love his positivity and optimism. There's something ever so slightly… HMM about Hilary, I can't quite but my finger on it.
Mabe the word I'm looking for in contrived. I'd have more respect for her if she had been seen to publicly punish Bill for what he did. Instead, I'm left with the sense that she maybe struck a deal with Bill…
Anyway, I don't get a vote!
I WOULD VOYE OBAMA, THOUGH.
Whoever wins the primaries it's good news for the Democrats and frankly, I'm counting down the days until George 'Burro' Bush is no longer in charge.
yeah!
FIRST. Barack is a cocky know nothing jerk.
NOW WHO DO WE VOTE 4!?!
First !
aww shes such an inspiration after all the tough things she went thru as a youngin'….oh and u spelled oprahs name wrong u effin idiot its with i Y not an E!!!!
..who cares
maya's mah grrrl
1st?
i have to say the funniest thing about this picture is bill clinton in the background.
OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT! I wonder if this was discussed between Oprah and Maya. I didn't see this coming!?!
Obama 08 bitches
Perez stop being a fucking DUMB ASS and learn how to spell a persons name before you write about them.
#1 sad but true……… BUSH CLINTON BUSH CLINTON====== NORTH AMERICAN UNION (MEXICO USA CANADA) 'amero' for currency,,,,,,,, A SUPER HWY FROM- MEXICO CITY 2 TORONTO is allready in progress it is called the NAFTA SUPERWHY…… this should explain Bushs; open boarders policy!!_____ EITHER WAY THIS COUNTRY IS FUCKED AFTER 9/11 scam… get involved!!
I'm really tired of old black leaders who dropped the ball in terms of progress trying to tell us who we should be voting. What is Hilary's real experience outside of the senate? I'm sick and tired of people counting Bill's political experience as Hilary's.
She loves the Clintons… and has rose colored glasses
Vote for her and she willl have us land on our asses
For peace we need someone with the tools
Obama 08 - he rules!
Shrillary is a sham. The Clinton's are a disgrace. Will they just go away? Vote Obama!
.
THEY NEED TO CREATE A VIDEO ENDORSEMENT AND PLASTER THE AIRWAVES WITH IT!!!
.
THIS IS HUGE!!
.
THE STANDARD MEDIA WILL PROBABLY GLOSS IT OVER OR NOT REPORT IT AT ALL!
.
Re: GB – Your a kennedy fan? MY GOSH your ignorant! Thats funny. Yeah the kennedys….ted kennedy, the great man! The great who drove drunk into a river with a young woman who ended up dying to drown in his vehicle while he fled the scene as if nothing happened!!!! AND GOT AWAY WITH IT! AND SERVES IN CONGRESS FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY! ALONG WITH FORMER KKK BYRD! LMAO, HOW YOU LIBS GET AWAY WITH YOUR HYPOCRASY, CRIME, CORRUPTION, IGNORANCE AMAZES ME!!!!
Obama can keep his kennedy endorsement, it shows a true a true asshole supports another ass. And hillary doesnt need any endorsements from anybody, afterall she is a part of the corrupt clinton machine.
GO REPUBLICANS****WE GOT THIS ONE.
Maya is an idiot. kissing up to the clintons once again.
hello! 1st, 2nd dunno wot i am
Go Maya!
This is seriously annoying me.
35 years experience? When??? She's been in the Senate just a couple more years than Obama. Does being married to a man with experience count? I don't think so.
I can't take this anymore, or all these people who are being brainwashed by Hillary. You've got to be kidding me. I think if you actually look beyond gender, you'll see that Obama is the only candidate that isn't completely full of shit…And if you think Hillary isn't full of it, you have another thing coming.
Both Barak and Hillary have been elected to the SEante, Barak also spent years in state govt. Other than her job as a U.S. Senator Hillary has spent time as the Wife of a President and the Wife of a governor. So Barak has experience in both State and Federal elected positions, and Hillary has experience being the wife of an elected official and in Federal government. Frankly it sounds like Obama has more experience.
You spelled Oprah's name wrong
Go Maya!!!!
It's not about gender or race…..It's about the Experience!
I love Obama, he is very reminescent of JFK. He is a fantastic candidate.
Yet, Hillary cannot be dismissed. She has 35 years of solid experience and has a record of strategically pushing and changing politics.
After 8 years of a total failed president, we need a sure bet.
Hillary is our that sure bet.
I hope to see Obama as our president oneday, but this is not that day.

I LOVE MAYA she is SO intelligent and so truly a balanced and wonderful soul.
Let's elect this biyacth!! She's alot tougher than Obama, and she'll get us out of this crazy war!! And the last time this country had a stable economy was during the Clinton Years!! Forget about spending all our money on a country who hates us!! Let's get our own house in order 1st before we try to rule the world.
What the fuck does she know? She's a fucking writer! Let's look at a few things about Hillary aka "Her Thighness". She claims to be in favor of universal healthcare, yet accepts millions from the insurance companies. It was the Clintons who brought race into this, moreso Bill than Hillary in all fairness. Also, it's gotta be killing Hillary that the so called "democratic elite" are backing Obama! Kennedy, Kerry, etc… Give it some time and Gore will be in the Obama camp as well! I also can't wait to see what the Clintons try and dig up on Obama! Drug use? Yep….he admited it!! And I even think he inhaled!! I also like the fact that a one term senator has a legitimate shot at the oval office. I don't think the lobbyists and PAC's have gotten their hooks into him yet. Maybe in this case the so called "inexperience" is a good thing!
PEREZ
WHERE'S THE BARACK-KENNEDY STORY?
FUCK YOU. TRAITOR.
Just because shes a pal of Oprah doesn't mean she has to have the same views? So what does Oprah W. have anything to do with this? I am sick of hearing Oprahs gums flapping.
How…poetic.
awww…how can you argue with that???
she knows why the caged bird sings!
Barfarack is a total idiot, ohhhhh I don't think mam Obarf will like this one bit, now she will probably make a show on how "black peoples are being led astray"
I have no respect for her as a woman..the way she tolerates her husbands affairs.She should have been a strong woman like so many say she IS, and dumped Billyboy long ago.Would have served him right! Maybe then, I,d respect her! I wouldnt vote for her in a million years!!!
she's a fucking poet, what does she know..anyone who likes Clinton is a moron
Barack Obama doesn't even SALUTE THE AMERICAN FLAG OR SAY THE PLEDGE OF ALIGIENCE! HE IS MUSLUM! WHY WOULD WE WANT A PRESIDENT WHO DOES NOT RESPECT THE AMERICAN FLAG I agree with her completely
Poof Dr. Angelou is duffering from dementia and still thinks it's 1996 and BILL is running for his second term!! Shame on her- somebody find her damn meds and quickly!
Re: bron aman – no stupid she is a poet like the article says read it!!!!!
I respect Maya Angelou as an important cultural aspect of our country, but why should I listen to who she thinks should be president?
Re: GB – he's not a journalist…he's entitled to his opinion…and he doesn't have to supply "fair and balanced" coverage of anything…that's why its called a blog, moron!
and believe me, this is the FIRST and probably ONLY time i've ever agreed with him…go mario!
OBAMA HAS WISDOM. Can't be learned, can't be bought.
Hilary COULD NEVER BEAT MCCAIN!!!

I think Caroline Kennedy was dropped on her head a couple of times, how can she say her father and Obarfma are the same? WOW she must be drinking the kool-aid hard…
shes true…. I love Barack… and hate that ppl think black ppl will only vote for him because he's "1 of us!" when Jesse Jackson was supposedly running for president, we acted like we were gonna vote 4 him….. but we really wasn't…. Im torn.
Vote Ron Paul! America needs an independent third voice!! Ron Paul is not controlled by special interests lobbies, he is not controlled by the upper echelons of the Democratic and Republican parties. Every candidate except Ron Paul, will be controlled and told what to do. The Republicans and the Democratics will annex America to Mexico and erase all borders!!!! They will create one North America without any borders!!! Read Ron Paul and learn the truth about both popular parties!!! Vote third party America!
Hey as many of y ou see this, please respond back….i was wondering, if your for obama and he doesnt get the democratic nomination, or even if your for hillary and she doesnt, will you support whoever the democrat nominee is or just not vote in the election?
I ask because it seems that the democrats are either really for obama or really for hillary.
And the republicans seem to just really want to beat whatever liberal is chosen. Like whatever republican candidate is choosen, they will be better then any lib out there, which i agree on.
