Click on "WATCH NOW!" It tells of why she votes in every election. Brought tears to my eyes. We've come far, but we still have a way to go.

3. You positive about that?

Michael Moore had the whole "Draft Oprah" thing a while ago, so I somehow doubt she's a Republican.

4. Sorry Oprah...

If she is so interested in voting, why is she JUST NOW getting "involved"?...2 weeks before the most important election in DECADES??

She's a smart cookie.. Can you imagine what an impact she would have had, if she had devoted even ONE SHOW a month to BBV, and or voter education??

2000 election was a wake up call for us all, but unfortunately, the rank and file citizen has little say in what eventually happens on election day..

A high-profile person like Oprah, COULD have had an impact...if she wanted to..:(

5. i dont have a clue oprah is repug, and i have watched her a

long time. i think she liked bush better than gore, but she was kind to both adn didnt show a preference. the only reason to say she is a repug would be cause of behavior to do with arnie, but then that was all because it was her friends hubby. i feel she crossed the line, what she tells the audience, yet then she allowed from arnie without calling him on it. but i have no evidence she is repug, on the contrary, what she promotes is not repug

9/11 she took a stance, but that was fear, and many a dem rolled into that trap
