Betty White supporting Obama
Politico ^ | 5-12-12 | CAITLIN MCDEVITT

Actress Betty White is a big fan of President Barack Obama, the AP reports:

As she prepares to visit the Smithsonian Institution and National Zoo next week, White told The Associated Press she "very, very much favors" President Barack Obama in the election.

The 90-year-old actress said Friday she is very bi-partisan and has stayed away from politics all of her life. She usually never says who she is for or against because she doesn't want to turn off any of her adoring fans.

White says in this year's election, she likes what Obama has done and "how he represents us."

I wonder what her relatives in St. Olaf think about all this
How the hell does a woman like Betty White, who loves dogs, support a guy who has no problem eating them

The president sent White a birthday card earlier this year.

This is why the old gal is for Obama. I would guess that otherwise, she is politically unsophisticated, ignorant and really doesn't care one way or another.

True. But I really don’t care what she thinks or supports. I don’t even watch her stupid program on tv.

With all due concern about disenfranchisement and respecting the constitutional right to vote, anyone who makes their presidential choice on the basis of Betty White’s endorsement probably shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

Until then..her career is going great so I guess that’s all she sees.

“””She usually never says who she is for or against because she doesn’t want to turn off any of her adoring fans””

Too late, adios.

A number of women from her generation know nothing about politics. My late Aunt Mary would have been a few years older than Ms. White. Every election, my uncle had to give her a list of candidates to vote for. Women weren’t supposed to know or care about those things. The men were the ones who kept informed.

Bless her heart, but in this election, she is wrong.
