Typical of Obama Supporters:
Susan Sarandon on the Tavis Smiley Show:
“Well, I’m going to back Obama. But I hope — I think that he, as a symbol, has really excited people, and he’s definitely confusing to everyone who really hates America for hating Muslims because a name like Obama and a black man, they’re probably going to go “Oh, wait a minute — What?” It’s kind of like when you’re out on the line for freedom to have an abortion and you’re incredibly pregnant. They just can’t quite figure it out.
So I think he definitely has convinced people that he stands for change and for hope, and I can’t wait to see what he stands for.”
