Angelina Jolie Backs Barack Obama....maybe?
Everyone can stop wondering. Angelina will not be following her father once again, but is going with her parenting partner Brad Pit and support his cousin, Barack Obama. ;)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On why she could be voting for Barack Obama: “Obama is fighting for international justice, he wants to intervene militarily in genocides abroad, and he wants to close down Guantanamo Bay. They are things which could move me to vote for him, not his roots. Of course, an American president like Barack Obama would be great for my family.” (On Monday, Brad carried a notebook with a Obama sticker on it.)

1. It blows me away to think that UP UNTIL NOW she still hasn't decided.
How is that possible??

5. She does a lot of humanitarian work for the UN.
She has made many trips abroad, and Pitt and her are helping rebuild houses in New Orleans.

6. I don't think she supports the war.....
as much as she thinks we should be giving the people there humanitarian help. She tries to stay politically nuetral as much as possible (my opinion) due to the work she does over seas and here in the US. Of course she also has to think of her career and her family. :eyes:

4. I think she had made up her mind, Just didn't want to say anything
Edited on Fri Oct-10-08 04:31 PM by rebel with a cause
until she was ready to. She still has to work with the government on her humanity missions.

Edited to add: She may have been waiting until the movie she made with Clint Eastwood had came out and their time together was over since he supports mccain. :shrug:

8. I have to agree she is a good looking woman and
she looks the same as she did when she was younger, meaning no enhancement plastic surgery on her face. Not going to swear about the body. ;)

She is living my life, well the one I would want. Movie star, humanitarian, mother and lives with Brad Pitt. What more could you wish for? I say that as for me, for you Brad may be living your life.

10. Suppose so
Superstar actor. Social philanthropist. Still cool enough to ride a bike around New Orleans and chat with the locals. Unusually beautiful wife who is equally famous. Filthy rich. Gigantic family.

Not a bad life they live.

13. Yeah, not a bad life.
But that is not to say that your life is not good also.

Mine not so good, because of age and health but I still would not want to give up my own kids to have her type of life. The humanitarian part of it is the part that I envy the most. If I was a guy, I would probably have to add motorcycle riding to that for Brad.

When I was a girl, my sisters and I were not allowed to ride on a cycle with anyone because of my father, much less have one of our own. My brothers were the babies of the family and when they were about 13/14 they each got their own cycle from my dad. good old gender bias/double standards of the old days. ;)

12. He abandoned his family and a lot of other things that make
me dislike him, and then he goes and supports mccain proving what a douche bag he is. And he use to be cute when he was young, and was good in 'The Midnight Cowboy" with Dustin Hoffman. Too bad these people have to turn out to be something that we don't want them to be. ;)

17. Yeah, I've seen interviews. Hard to believe he's her father.
Her mother must be pretty smart, because she obviously didn't get that from Dad.

21. um, well....
hateful? I don't think hateful people do humanitarian work and fight for children's rights like she does. Homewrecking? really?

on second thought... forget it. I really don't care about that. She's a damn good actress though and her thoughts are no more or less important than anyone else here.
