http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/oprah-winfrey-endorses-hillary-clinton-article-1.2676149Hillary Clinton is getting something bigger and better than a free car: a vote from the Queen of All Media.
Talk-show mogul Oprah Winfrey endorsed the presumptive Democratic nominee's presidential bid Wednesday night, invoking Clintons campaign slogan: Im with her.
I really believe that is going to happen, the Weight Watchers ambassador told Entertainment Tonight of a woman being elected President. Its about time that we make that decision.
Regardless of your politics, its a seminal moment for women, Winfrey added. What this says is, there is no ceiling, that ceiling just went boom! It says anything is possible when you can be leader of the free world.

(521 posts)10. What took her so long?
She endorsed Obama shortly after he announced his campaign in 2007 and way before the primaries began in January 2008. I remember she got a lot of flack from her female viewers, because she had paid lip service to female empowerment and sisterhood for many years, but then the year that the first viable black man and the first viable woman were in a horse race for the Democratic nomination, she chose to back the man, i.e. color over sex. At least that's how her viewers took the betrayal, and her ratings fell 7%.
