Brad Pitt & Barack Obama are Related

The View gals asked Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama this morning to help clear up the rumors that he’s related to Brad Pitt.

“I guess we are ninth cousins something removed or something,” Barack said.

Jokingly he added, “I think he got the better looking side of the gene pool.”

Barbara Walters couldn’t agree more: “We thought you were very sexy looking (applause). Don’t you think so? (to audience)”

Apparently, the other Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, is cousins with Pitt’s partner, Angelina Jolie, twice removed.

Um, yeah. Just so you know! Watch the clip of Barack on The View here.

Bailey, I don’t hate her as much as many people do, I just don’t care for her, but you have a point.

Guli:

Hi Yes:
Do you have any big plans this weekend? I don’t know if I asked you before, but do you live in the U.S.?

Color me a neophyte, but California and Louisiana have already done their primaries; since they have homes in both places and presuming that they are registered voters in either locations, they have already voted.

If, by chance, they were registered in NY or TX, again, the primaries have already taken place; therefore, your argument that Brad is voting for fill-in-the-blank or Angelina is on the fence about fill-in-the-blank is pretty moot.

Now get the fcuk out of here with your $h*t-stirring, grasping at straws, ‘I’m an expert/Brad and Angelina insider’ claptrap!

P.S… if Brad is a registered voter in Missouri, then, oops, he has already voted!

I am an Obama supporter and a Brangelina supporter. I want world peace and help for Africa and needy children. Obama is the one! No wonder most people with college degrees vote for him. Smart people vote for Obama. Also most of his supporters are middle class and more well to do people - people who are more worldly like the Jolie-Pitts. Hillary lied about sniper fire in Bosnia. Obama ‘08!!

mystify:
I try not to waste my energy hating any celebrity, or anyone for that matter. But I REALLY DISLIKE Paris. She makes me cringe. She is completely vapid, racist and full of ****. So much for her b.s. about prison changing her. Whatever. And here I am, wasting my energy on her. LOL.

Gotta get the kiddies ready for bed. BBL!

I don’t know if McCain is better than Bush, but a lot of people say that, so I guess I’ll believe you to calm myself down, lol.
It’s just that after 8 years of GWB, just the word Republican gives me a stomach ache.
——-
He is definitely better than Bush! He is not arrogant, and is willing to work with Democrats. He has very good Democrat friends. McCain is not like Bush! Some Republicans don’t like him because he is not arch conservative. He is flexible.
—————————
Flexibility on issues is a good thing to have, so he does sound better than GWB, if he HAS to be elected. I just don’t understand the mentality of some democrats. As you said, if one candidate gets the nomination, the other’s supporters are gonna go vote republican? Why? Obama and Clinton’s stance on the issues isn’t that different and I think democrats should unite and support whoever the candidate is.

…I don’t know about Barack having a sexy voice, but, he doesn’t sound like he’s learning lines during a basic interview and can make sense in impromptu conversation like grown people who speak for themselves…hahahah

Piper with a low:

I don’t have to prove anything to you. I work in Los Angeles and I am part of a network group of Industry people. And this is the inside story about Brad Pitt. Now only he knows what he did inside the voting booth but the word amongst Hollywood people who know him is that he is in that camp. And I do find it interesting that so many Jolie-Pitt fans are so offended if Brad is voting Obama. You can accept Brad and Angelina adopting kids around the world but can’t accept a fabulous biracial president who is of a family of mixed race people like Brangelina’s family. I find that interesting. Turn the mirror onto yourself honey. I am with the majority - the people have spoken and Obama has gotten most of the popular votes and most delegates. Hillary can only win if she steals it. So get mad all you want - I am in good company.

And ask yourself privately: why are you so mad if Brad was supporting Obama? huh? Ask yourself that question. And you may not be happy with the answer that your own self gives you.

Cook,

I’ll tell you all about it when I get there. :D Loving you right back.

Fefe,

…you’re making papi proud baby…

150 Tamlin @ 03/28/2008 at 5:42 pm

…I would think they would see Barack’s biracial make-up and experience with Asian culture…
——-
What experience with Asian culture?
The fact that he went to a madrassa (Muslim school) in Indonesia when he was a little boy? I heard on TV that he claims to speak Indonesian, but apparently his teacher said that it’s not true.

TO COOK

Dear friend (or at least fan) Cook

Because you are of Haitian origin or Puerto Rican if I remember correctly, I will speak to you in Spanish.

I do it through this medium because I don’t have your email
(I would do it privately)

But given that the nature of the matter that concerns me is public and the majority of visitors to this site do not speak Spanish, I will do it so publicly.

The issue at hand is your discussions with Felinelilly

I personally have nothing against the erotic talks or sexual references which I do not think is the correct site that YOU TWO have decided to use to carry them out.

This for the love of God is DISRESPECTFUL, INDECENT AND INAPPROPRIATE. A site devoted primarily to celebrity gossip and information, in this case Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

I do not know whether you have children, but in case (to have children) would you permit a child of yours read such things?
As an expectant mother, I would not like my son to come to places like this because they are full of gossip and this is no big deal, but to come and see these topics and read those two-way talks that are highly sexual?

I think that YOU TWO should stick to the reason for this page:
THE JOLIE-PITT’S FAMILY AND THEIR CHILDREN

Of course you will probably say that if the sexual talks bother me I should avoid them and you will continue to write them but before you write such things think of the children and teenagers who come here on a daily basis, who are most sexually experiencing with their bodies and found a stimulus more on your conversations.

I understand that YOU TWO are sexual beings. I am pregnant I am extremely sexually because I am in my 20’s so I understand but I believe it is inappropriate to the site.

If you like doing in a public space you and her should chose an inactive site and have your sexual conversations.

I hope that’s does not bother you too much but I think it right to state my position and express my dissatisfaction on the matter.

If they are banning bad words because they are prohibited, sexual conversations should also be banned? I think it is a double standard

Definitely! It shows a person who is broad-minded and a leader who never forgets that he represents both sides, all sides.
He is a much older candidate than the others, and has suffered greatly in Vietnam. If he ends up winning, you can be sure he will be far different from the arrogant current occupant of the WH.

tamlim is whorebama campaign manager.
