Maya Angelou on Hillary

[alfredo5]

I love you Maya, but you are dead wrong with this endorsement.

[HCelticPrincessness]

Well this is the best I have seen of Hillary's support. Thank you Dr. Angelou!

[Stagerage]

Bless you Maya.

[omorado]

I love you Hillary!

[ChristaInDetroit]

I will quit my job to campaign for her full time.

[Rbdgirl2]

lol. are u seious

[dornydorny123]

She is adorable! And Hillary is the most consistent candidate

[Bstemoon]

I respect hillary clinton

[5875123]

So true. Hillary is the best choice for this country right now. Those of us in New York State have come to understand how hard she works for average people. Many critics did not expect her to step up to the plate like she has. She completely suprised her New York critics with her incredible effectiveness and she will suprise her national critics as well.

[PianoGirlLara87]

I like Bill. If Billy Boy Clinton decided to run, I'd vote for him, but as for his wife, I don't think so.

[Shaded1]

Bill wasn't all that great, but he wasn't all that bad either. In either case, however, not voting for Hillary is probably a good choice in retrospect, but I suppose that depends on who your actual choice would be too.

[julierobso]

right... the reason for this being?

[apollodionysus7]

I wish there were more testimonials like this... I think that her warmth, well that she is a little uncomfortable and so she comes across a little cold, a little hard. So people believe strange stories and secrets, people suspect there is something evil lurking beneath the surface...

[Seiku]

so far its about women pride and thier enthusiasm. not much about politics

[Alieenmiller]

Hey,Hillary.

This is the second time that I write my comment for you.

I'm a Chienese girl,but I'm admire you very much.You are a heroine.I want you to be the president of America.And I believe you will!

Yes,that's true.Women can do anything better than men!

[BTVucla]

Why is MAYA Pro-Choice?

[palaad98]

LIKE i AM GONNA DO WHAT THIS WOMAN WANTS

[ikebona]

Who would vote for Hillary if her name were HILLARY RODHAM FOSTER? I didn't think so.

Love you Maya, but you're misguided on this one. She's a snake.

[seventhwifeofsatan]

LOVELOVELOVE Dr. Angelou! Hillary...not so much.

[greatbroad]

Ms. Angelou, as much as I admire Hillary as a woman I will not vote for her. She supports the New World Order. This I will never condone, for I love America the way it was intended to be: for the people. Senator Clinton has sold herself to big business.

[Cizzam]

HATE Hillary.

LOVE Dr. Angelou.

[mortacai]

Yes, Hillary is a woman, but in what way does that qualify her to be a president? The role of the president is to:

1) Pursue what is in the national self-interest

2) Pursue what is in the world's self-interest

The real question is how does Hillary measure up to those criteria?

I think it just as offensive to advertise a candidate based on their gender as it is to advertise based on skin color, or anything else that is irrelevant to their abilities as a leader.

[Lakeside398]

Section. 2. of the Constitution defines the roles of the President

[Shaded1]

I agree that it's totally illogical to support a potential candidate for the Presidency based on their reproductive organs or skin pigmentation. However, I disagree when you say the role of the President is to pursue what's in the world's self-interest. We are the United States, not the United Nations.

[trishjay]

Hillary has and extensive legal and political career. If anyone knows the ins and outs of the job without actually doing that job - is Hillary.

I'm in total agreement that being a woman or the color of your skin should not determine your leadership abilities. That is why it is SO important people look beyond those things and she who is most QUALIFIED. She has it, hands down.

[medusa234]

Dr. Angelou is amazing and I can hear her talk for hours and not get sick of her voice.

[rslambert]

Fantastic woman!

Both Maya and Hillary

[alien4fish]

GO HILLARY  i will be so glad to see the clintons back in the white house!!

[tarchetious]

Now there's a ill-informed liberal.

[macrocosm144]

This speaks volumes about Senator Clinton's character. Maya Angelou is one of the brightest lights of humanity her endorsement, I think, is powerful stuff.

You go Hillary!

[Danieltheartist]

She is a great lady. Hillary that is.

--God Bless--

[Turgis123]

Pulling the feminist card, eh? Vote for her because she's a women? Gah, I vote for people based on their merits, not which types of chromosomes inhabit their bodies.

[Berserk798]

She never once says, "vote for Clinton!". She's only expressing her admiration of Clinton.

[corn2head]

It goes without saying!

Vote Hillary 08!

[Destinationdestiny]

Yes she is the best fit for president. Watch my video on Hillary Clinton.

[princessalshehari]

Dearest Maya Angelou,

You are the most gracious woman I have ever become exposed to. I love your work, and am inspired by your spirit.

[ambergristak]

i adore maya angelou. she is one of the people who inspired me to become a writer.

[nejiroxmysox356]

Maya is absolutely magnificent!

Go Hillary!!!!

[adambrantleystone]

Maya was a professor of mine at Wake Forest in Winston-Salem. She was an amazing woman and teacher and I am proud to be voting for Hillary, the first female president of the United States. This Amazing country deserves good leadership!

[ambergristak]

i am jealous. I heard that she still does a class there in the summer.

[bunkerbrother]

it always takes a clinton to clean up after a bush

[parachuteboi]

wow, how true LOL!

[alien4fish]

boy you sure got that right! I cant wait to help get the clintons back into office..............GO HILLARY!!!

[achvoy]

Woah. She's getting so old.

[eyeslookingatu]

wish her alot of luck! she will make a great president ! she was the best first lady ever!

[billionbucks]

yea hillary!!

[rastapasta250]

that didnt say anything about her ideas for changing america... this video is usless to me BUT that maya lady seeeemmms sooooo nicceeeee i wunna give her a hug

[AracelyNicolette]

greetings from reunion.-)Aracelys

[johnnylife]

Hilary for 2008!!! She will win it's time for change.

She has my vote.

[joshbaby2k7]

Maya is a wonderfully articulate, softspoken indiviual. A calm voice of reason in any turbulent weather. However, I'm not sure if Maya is actually speaking strongly about Hillary or just capable women nationwide. Maya is a better delegate for President than Hillary, and if you notice at the end this whole statement was bought by Hillary Clinton's campaign fund...if Maya really supported her, wouldn't she have shouted it from the mountains freely?

[cjk002]

Are you trying to say she was paid to do this?? I think that might be illegal. That disclaimer has to by law be put on every piece of advertisement from the campaign. If Maya produced this video herself, it could be considered an illegal campaign contribution. Besides, Angelou has been friends with the Clinton's for years, she was poet laureate during the 1st Clinton administration.

Why can't people accept the fact that there are a lot of people who want to see Hillary win?

[WetnWild4u7]

Now wake up america and smell the cappachinos this is y i choose to be part of Team hillary n i represent ohio n Heart of manufacturing.East.Coast.K.D.O­h.T.B.N.Calif.American.4.Injus­tice.N.Peace.Colitions

[bbarteet1803]

This video of Maya Angelo moves me to tears because she encourages every woman to be herself/comfortable in her own skin...I have done this and still find it difficult, but satisfying.

[h8td1]

Got my vote . I'm sure she'll do fine as president .

[Shaded1]

Sorry, but we are in great need of much more than just "fine".

[Cannook]

Elegant , Very elegant Lady .  DianeMarie , Canada

[Vote4Hill]

VOTE FOR HILLARY!

[asshergill]

Ambiguous, vague political hogwash. Doesn't matter who is speaking or about whom. Similar words could be spoken by any celebrity about any political candidate; and they are, all the time. Doesn't mean anything.

[drcheerio]

A moving commentary from a truly phenomenal woman.

[rslambert]

I agree drcheerio...well said

[sakiusad]

Sorry not convinced....

[dabiribd]

Hi Maya,

You rock and we do all admire you

[monicasuetannehill]

Two women I admire!

[phatcrayonz]

you said it mamas! go vote now! well not now its wed. but when the day comes. you gotta get up and vote.

[SasukexSenpai]

If Maya Angelou says Hilary is good for president then i agree.

[fluteman999]

YAY HILLARY !!!!

[chinkafish]

Really nice of her. If there are more well-known people out there that will speak of Hilary dearly, she just might have a shot in winning. Vote Hillary!

[GOPeagle]

Homosexual AIDS barebacker is going nuts over this ad. What's the deal? I can understand someone diagreeing politically, but why is Andrew Sullivan so deeply hateful of woman? Are all those in the AIDS gifting community like that?

[asteroide]

My respects to Maya Angelou, but this has nothing to do with Hillary being a WOMAN, we need a PERSON to save our land and dignity and neither of the republicrats, Obama or Hillary have proposed simpy PEACE. Cheers

[sepulvedaj3]

I heart Maya Angelou - This is amazing

[gundyrage]

super boring!

[colonelmatterson]

What a marvelous piece. It's so great to know she's on Hillary's side.

[dasalsakid]

boring.

[maevealleine]

Well, I'm impressed.

[Idiosyncrasy6]

I love Maya Angelou. She's the most beautiful woman in the world.

[untrueman]

Maya is truly a visionary! Hillary For President!

[ya5hate5trash]

Wow, having Maya Angelou support you is amazing. Go Hillary!

[MusicalArtAthletic]

GO HILARY

[JacquelineGLopez]

My Latin@ friends/roommates and I also have a profound affection for Phenomenal Hillary as does Maya Angelou...That's why we are in the video!!!:-)"Shanainai!!!" Both Maya and Hilary totally Rock...and get ready...HILARY IS GOING TO BE THE 44TH PRESIDENT 4 SURE!:-)

[jeffohc2]

The other night I saw a little old woman emerging from an apartment building. And I heard her say, as she looked up "What a beautiful night." I recognized the voice immediately and looked and saw before me Maya Angelou. I thought to myself that should tell her I loved her and how much I have loved her since I was a little boy. But I thought again, "Don't disrupt her beautiful night." So I say it here. I am so happy to see that Dr. Angelou stands with us. I'm so glad we agree about Hillary!

[btpnyc]

She speaks THE TRUTH.

[thereallurker]

Hillary just got support from an absolutely fantastic humanistic human being!

[ShadowAlly]

Those are true words of wisdom!

[kentuckyangel14ss]

You go girl!!

[CrankyYellow]

Hillary is Amazing! We support her all the way!

[luce67]

what a shame to be so ill informed

[julierobso]

please informed us all what she is so "ill informed" about...

[nerbinator]

maya Angelou is an awesome human being.Hillary is a lucky lady to have this support.

[Donnie2020]

Well said Maya :D

[Godsproject562]

I love this women...Shes been my hero ever since FRESHMAN yr in High School..and now she is endorsing Clinton..SWEET

[MdlSkate5]

AMEN!

[TheOrangeCrush77]

go Hillary!

[forgeteden]

yay.

[madgeboy21]

GO Girl~

[Jadedbylife]

God, What a elegant, beautiful speaker! If this woman of great wisdom and integrity is Hillary then Senator Clinton must be a very special person.. GO HILLARY 08!!!!!!!!

[JacobB5]

To be who she is. But who is she, what does she stand for? Want to end the war, nice thought but the HOW is more important. Looking on the web I see lots of nice ideas, but no strategies. Anyone can say "I want healthcare to be affordable", its the how that matters.

[z19glenn]

Tell em' Maya!

[Tristan1002]

I'm not a religious man, but, to me, there's always been something about MA's spirit, countenance, grace and dignity that appears nearly God-like, or at least what some of us hope that God's like.

[julierobso]

spirit and grace absolutely, well put... everything that escapes this woman's lips tends to be poetic... I respect and admire this :)

[cat00012000]

Go Hillary

[loggerfan04]

great video, go hillary!

[cbrock7]

Thats it, Hilary '08. Wow, endorsed by Maya Angelou. Its good to hear from her.

[Daritto7117]

GOSH..WHEN WILL SHE JUST DIE..I MEAN SHE TAKES 5 MIN. TO SAY 20 WORDS....j/k...I love her..shes eloquent

[yohan19761]

What grace and wisdom this woman possesses!

[Blahblahblha72]

First Comment!!! Woot!

[meredithrose]

Great video

[headbitchincharge75]

How beautifully said, Thank you Maya Angelou!!!

[Hekerui]

I admire these honest words.

[tennisguy4657]

[danielleryan]

Wow! Hillary '08

She is honestly the only one good enough!
