Bill Clinton, Michelle Obama Author Pieces for Us Weekly
John McCain may have endorsement of Heidi Montag, but Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have the support of their spouses, who penned exclusive first-person pieces arguing for the candidates they know best in the latest issue of Us Weekly. Their pieces are a little under 1,000 words apiece. "I tell people I am married to the answer," Michelle Obama wrote in Us. "If I weren't married to him, I'd want a Barack Obama presidency right now — not in four or eight years, but now." Bill Clinton wrote in U

Michelle Obama's thesis goes public, gets analyzed
There are plenty senior theses with famous authors lining the shelves of Princeton University's library. Actors Brooke Shields and Dean Cain used their senior papers to write about the film industry. Actor David Duchovny wrote about Samuel Beckett. Future politician Bill Bradley wrote about Harry Truman. Ralph Nader explored Lebanese agriculture. But few senior theses have attracted as much attention as Michelle Obama's 1985 paper, "Princeton-Educated Blacks and the Black Community." Bloggers have

Barack Obama to appear on "The View"
Barack Obama will appear on The View Friday, March 28 for the first time since becoming a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination. Obama's sit-down comes in the wake of his much-lauded speech on race in America, which he made following an uproar over inflammatory remarks made by his former paster, Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., that he has denounced. "The fact is," he said in a speech Tuesday, "that the comments that have been made and the issues that have surfaced over the last few weeks r

Video: Obama's racist pastor, Jeremiah Wright
Jeremiah Wright may be a real problem for Barack Obama but so far the liberal elite in Hollywood hasn't really noticed. One of the Hollywood A-List star powered political couples, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, are still embracing Barack Obama and they are still raising money for the Democratic frontrunner despite the vile sermons delivered by Wright. Jeremiah Wright is the pastor of Obama and his mentor and some are saying he is like a father figure to the US Senator that is seeking the highest offi

Barack Obama's February haul: $55 million
Sen. Barack Obama raised $55 million in February, a stunning total that his campaign hopes will breathe fresh momentum into his presidential bid following losses in three of four nominating contests earlier this week. The Tribune has learned the Illinois Democrat raised the amount in an effort that shatters the record for money raised by a presidential campaign in a single month.

Barack related to Brad; Hillary related to Angelina!
Barack Obama reckons he lost out to cousin Brad Pitt when the handsome genes were dished out. It was revealed last week that the US Presidential candidate and the Hollywood A-lister are ninth cousins, linked by EDWIN HICKMAN who died in 1769. Hillary Clinton'S rival said: "I guess we’re ninth cousins removed or something. "I think he got the better-looking side of the gene pool.” Researchers at the New England Historic Genealogical Society also found out BILL's wife Hillary is related to

Anderson Cooper Has 'Spot' of Skin Cancer Removed
Anderson Cooper is dealing with a dermatological health issue, the journalist explains on his CNN blog. After recounting his experience on the campaign trail with Sen. Barack Obama, Cooper, 40, writes, "On a personal note, I've been off for the last couple of days. I had minor surgery on Monday. A small spot of skin cancer was removed from under my left eye." The setback will not keep Cooper off-camera, he says. "I hadn't planned on mentioning this, but I still have stitches and you'll no doubt

Obama to take Mississippi
Barack Obama reasserted his claim tonight as front-runner in the Democratic presidential race by winning the Mississippi primary, according to projections by Fox News, NBC News, CNN, and the Associated Press. Obama also easily won the caucuses in Wyoming on Saturday after Hillary Clinton kept her campaign alive last Tuesday with wins in Ohio, Rhode Island, and Texas. He is likely to win most of the 33 delegates at stake tonight in Mississippi and extend his lead in delegates, which stood at 106 before

Clintons push a Hillary/Obama ticket
Hillary and Bill Clinton are again teaming up on Barack Obama -- this time saying the first-term U.S. lawmaker, whom they have derided as inexperienced, would be a strong running mate on a Democratic presidential ticket headed by the former first lady. In talking up a joint ticket, the Clintons may be seeking the upper hand, attempting to put her in consideration for the top of the ticket when she so far has failed to win the votes necessary to assure that she would face Republican presidential candidate

Clinton supporter Elton John laments U.S. misogyny
British pop star Elton John, playing a fund-raiser for Hillary Clinton in New York on Wednesday, said he was amazed at the misogyny of some in America and he hoped that wouldn't stop her being president. At the fund-raiser which Clinton's campaign manager said raised $2.5 million, John said there was no one more qualified to lead the United States into the next era. "Having said that, I never cease to be amazed at the misogynistic attitude of some people in this country. And I say to hell with them,"

Rapper Nas backs Obama
Rapper Nas has offered his backing to Barack Obama's U.S. presidential campaign, claiming the Democratic candidate is the "face of America". Nas is the latest in a line of celebrities to publicly declare their support for Obama. The I Can hitmaker tells MTV, "There's no two ways to look at it, man - the man's got what it takes.

Brody Jenner Backs Barack Obama for President
The latest Hills star to endorse a presidential candidate? Brody Jenner. But unlike feminist hero Heidi Montag (who is rooting for John McCain), Jenner, 24, wants a Democrat in office. His pick: Barack Obama. "He's just cool!" Jenner tells E! "I mean, he's young, and I think people would take us more seriously with Iraq and everything." But Jenner wouldn't complain if Hillary Clinton won. "Personally, I think we’re either going to have a woman president, or we’re going to have a black pre

Clinton wins Ohio
By breaking her long losing streak with a hard-fought victory in Ohio, Hillary Rodham Clinton has stalled rival Barack Obama's momentum toward the Democratic presidential nomination. But by no means has Clinton fully recovered from her month of lopsided defeats -- even if she also turns out to have won today in Texas, where results were not yet known. Moreover, many see Clinton's candidacy as essentially dead should she lose Texas, regardless of the Ohio victory that was projected by TV networks hour
