Sheryl Crow Backs Barack Obama

Sheryl Crow is speaking publicly about her endorsement of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama. Here’s the gist of what she had to say via her blog (all references to Barack were changed from Barak because she spelled it wrong each and every time):

“I am proud to support Barack Obama in his desire and mission to see America return to her greatness. I have carefully watched, like everyone else, the campaigns of both the democrats, as well as the republican candidate, and I could safely say that only one candidate is speaking to the beliefs I feel this country was founded on.

“I believe, like Barack Obama, that we can change our future, but not by repeating our history. …And, I will not be deterred in my support of Barack Obama because of ad campaigns that are meant to incite fear in us where our security is concerned, when the candidate running the ad voted to take us into war.”

“…..be cool and vote for Obama “? BE. Cool?

Errrr. That’s. The. Exactly. Reason. We. Are. Deep. In. Mud.

Why. Bother?

That’ll. Be. Interesting.

If. HRC. Goes. Independent.

LOL.

” …. I swear, they say the educated citizens are the ones voting for Obama says it all…. it’s simple as that. …”

And. 92%. African America. votes. For. BO.

I. Don’t. Believe. They. Are. All. That. “Educated”. As. You. Claim.

Heck. 70%. Probably. Not.

What. The. Point?

dear sheryl,
i don’t care what you think about any of these things…just as i know you don’t care what i think….so just try to keep your mouth shut for once…probably impossible for you though…..she’s such a self-important liberal @sshat

Sheryl’s opinion is one of the few celebrity opinions that could sway me. Personally I really hadn’t decided who I was going to vote for between Obama and Hillary. Being from Indiana as an I’m seeing and hearing a lot about each candidate. It’s more difficult for me to trust Obama, but I do believe he has addressed the issues and sees many changes that need to be made. Let’s face it this is another election where for many of us whatever they do won’t do a whole hell of a lot for our own personal circumstances. We have learned to game the system and do with the best that we can. Go Sheryl–See you at your concert in Indianapolis and maybe Caesars Indiana.

Sheryl is no dummy. Too brave, maybe but not dumb.

FYI
Sheryl received a B.A degree in Music Composition, Performance and Education. In University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri. And was a school teacher before she pursued a singing career. Sheryl was awarded an honorary doctorate from the Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. (so we can call her Dr. Crow).
My point is she is educated.

Anyway, I would love either Obama or Hillary to be the next President. So, for Sheryl who has been a long-time Clinton friend and supporter to back Obama was a total shocker for me. To choose ones beliefs over a friend is not very easy to do. Perhaps, having a child to think of made it easier for her, who knows. Honestly, I am almost scared for her yet, I do admire her guts.

Let’s change the taste and then taste this change.

We have seen a showbiz star getting transformed into a successful Statesman and politician but, a politician exposing glamor and behaving as a showbiz star is fully a total and complete failure.
