Tom For Obama!

THANKS051108_01.jpg

Chalk up another celebrity endorsement for Barack Obama - this time, it's Tom Hanks!

The AP is reporting that the two-time Oscar winner sent out a video message through MySpace last week entitled "Beware: Celebrity Endorsement" outlining his reasons for supporting Obama's candidacy.

"He has the integrity and the inspiration to unify us, as did FDR and Harry Truman and John F. Kennedy and even Ronald Reagan when they ran for the job," Hanks said. "I want Barack Obama to be President of this country, a country that once said people with his skin color were only three-fifths of a human being."

Of course, Hanks is only the most recent celebrity to come out in favor of Obama - other celebrity backers (including Halle Berry, George Clooney, Scarlett Johansson and Robert De Niro) have already voiced their star support... with some even doing so via magazines and t-shirts:

Ryan Phillippe is for progress and yes, that's Pam Anderson behind Obama's face!



Tom Hanks has a MySpace?!

WOW Celebs voting for the most liberal of them all. That is f'ing shocking. You are wayyyy behind on the Tom thing X17. Hell would have to freeze over before I would vote for that inexperienced, America hating muslim.

Who cares who they vote for? 1/2 of them never finished High School - suddenly because they are famous they are smart too?

He will never win. A black liberation theology-America hating marxist is not the "change" this country needs. However, it's a HOCKEY NITE IN PITTSBURGH !!! LETS GO PENS!!!!! xo

She looks beautiful. I love her. I saw her profile on millionaire&celeb dating site "W e a l t h yR o m a n c e.c o m" last week. It is said she is dating young billionaire on that site. Is that true!

Anyone who votes for fat bottomed Hillary Clinton is just wasting their vote.

Maybe it's because I am young, but I find no reason to vote for Obama. He has yet to say (from what I've heard) what the change is that he is going to give us. He should embrace his white side as well as his black side!!

Hilary Clinton's bottom grows larger by the week....

Obama is the biggest liar ever. He's not even black.

The best bet of the field is John McCain. He has the ability to lead this country better than the other two. Whatever Obama wants to change the country to doesn't interest me. I'm not interested in a black muslim America.

Hillary Clinton has the biggest bum on the campaign trail... and I'm not talking about her husband Bill!

From reading these posts, I guess that I'm not the only one who could care less for celebrity endorsements. But Tom Hanks,,,,WHY? And why post it on youtube is you didn't think your superior to the rest of Americans who need to be told by a man of great wisdom such as yourself!
PLLLLEEEEEAAAAASSSSEEEEE.
We EXPECT this kind of stupid, self important behaviour for Clooney, but you???????
I thought YOU were different. That you had class.



Posted by: Barack is a pure Socialist

Barck is political racist (like michael moore,sean penn, other bigots) He is a Marxist which willhave no tolernce for anyone who disagrees with them. Some in Holloywood (like oliver stone,sean penn) have supported Hugo Chavez (defined recently as a Facist). This is troubling to those who believe in human rights. Will Barack follow in the footsteps as some of his mentors ?



Posted by: Cruise Director

I bet Reese Whitherspoon also endorses Obama. Probably 90% of Hollyweird endorsed him.
What out of touch elitists!

Yes, Obama may have faults, but at least he is not FAT like Hillary Clinton.



Posted by: ryan phillippe is a joke

Yea - ryan phillippe made an anti-war film and now supports the socialist for president , and some people felt that reese and jake were the only socialist in that group , no ryan is too.



Posted by: Erin

1st choice with least damage overall---MCCain
2nd choice even with the FAT ass-------Clinton
3rd choice-as far as I'm conserned there is no viable 3rd choice BECAUSE Obama stinks, even if he doesn't have a fat butt!

Hillary Clinton is getting the ROSEANNE vote. All the fat white women out there adore her cuz they can relate to her and her cheating husband.



Posted by: Cruise Director

True, but at least Hill isn't a full blown, off the hook Socialist like Barry Husein Obama!

I agree with 'Erin' about Tom Hanks , I thought he was different . My guess is that a 'one thought mentality'(no independant thinking) has taken over holloywood.



Posted by: Anonymous

he talks a good game but does he have what it takes to be our president? I don't think so.



Posted by: shame on some hollywood stars

11:34 i agree that - one of the worst things some holloywood stars (oliver stone,sean penn,spacy,glover) is support hugo chavez(yes defined as a facist) venezuela. chavez is really a violent bigoted dictator who goes after people/religions that disagree with him. (shame on these stars).
this does not have much to do with barack , ,

Hilary Clinton smells.

OBAMA, the clear choice for those in the dark!

That's funny anon 7:20, "just because they're famous doesn't make smart"...so true. I hope McCain wins because war is good and more people should die.

What a STUPID comment.
Just because you support defending our country and our troops doesn't mean you think War is Good and more people should die!!!!!!!
Such stupidity can only come from a typical Obamabot.
Put the Kool-Aid down and wake up!



Posted by: Anonymous

Hey Erin, heard of sarcasm? plus you people that think invading Iraq is defending the States are simply unbelievable, whatever your twisted logic is, you are certainly not defending your country. The US will never get invaded because you're all gun toting maniacs; well not all, but a f+++ big majority



Posted by: michelle

FUCK OPBAMA JUST BECAUSE HE IS BLACK DOES NOT MEAN HE SHOULD BE THE PRESIDENT. HE HAS NOT NEARLY ENOUGH EXPERINCE SAD PART IS HE PROBALLY WILL BE PRESIDENT NOT BECAUSE HE IS A GOOD PRESIDENT BUT BECAUSE HE IS BLACK. RACISM IS ALIVE AND WELL I AMERICA



Posted by: Anonymous

Dear oh dear, if Obama does get in it wont be because he's black, particularly if racism is alive...think about the percentages



Posted by: a vote for barack is a vote for marxist michael moore

barack is a socialist , a vot for him is a vote for michael moore or other marxist celebs. (i am not kidding)



Posted by: Anonymous

ONE THING THAT ALWAYS HOLDS TRUE IS THAT "TRUTH ALWAYS FINDS IT'S WAY INTO THE LIGHT". IF OBAMA DOESN'T WIN THIS ELECTION HE IS SURE TO WIN IN 4 YEARS AFTER MCCAIN HAS SCREWED THIS COUNTRY UP EVEN WORSE. BELIEVE THAT!!!!!!
