Tom Hanks must be talking about some other Senator named Barack Obama:
"As an official celebrity, I know my endorsement has just made your mind up for you," the 51-year-old actor says in a short video titled, "Beware: Celebrity Endorsement.""History with a capital `H' is going to be made this November, no matter who the president-elect is. I want Barack Obama to be president of this country, a country that once said people with his skin color were only three-fifths of a human being."
Hanks, who won Oscars for his roles in "Forrest Gump" and "Philadelphia," explains his decision: "It's because of his character and vision, and the high road he has taken during this campaign. He has the integrity and the inspiration to unify us, as did FDR and Harry Truman and John F. Kennedy and even Ronald Reagan when they ran for the job."
*sigh* Integrity?
The flip-flopping Obama did during the whole Jeremiah Wright situation was downright disgusting and pathetic.
It's going to be a serious hold-your-nose-in-November kinda year, folks.

Yeah, i agree. It's kind of a shame how he back pedaled on Wright. Of course if he didn't you'd be going after him for not, so it's not like he could've won on this one. Still, Wright seems okay to me. Better than any other religious nutjob I can think of.
