Will Smith -- I'm No Barack!

Will Smith spoke today at the Motion Picture Association of America in Washington D.C. Mr. Smith told the crowd a hilarious story.
Barack Obama and Will Smith
It happened this morning on his way to the event. An older couple approached Smith and said, "We love what you're doing. You're so great for the country!" In true Hollywood fashion, Smith said, "Thank you!"

As the star walked away, the old man said, "And we'll be sure to vote for you."

Come to think of it, Will and Barack have never been seen together. Coincidence?

226. I could not agree with you more smartest, they refuse to live better at home and the liberal media is saying how horribly they live in filth and with nothing yet they all have on $300.00 jeans i-pods, cell phones etc.

228. Personally, I see more of a resemblance between Obama and the actor on "24" playing the Muslim leader who is detained by the FBI and is romantically involved with the lawyer/President's sister.

230. The old couple. Typical of the average liberal voter, they don't have a clue who they are voteing for, let alone what they are voteing for.

231. OMG!!! Farrah you are so fucking stupid!!! I am tired of reading your comments. Not everything is about Race!!! Yes, Katrina was screwed up because of Bush. The president we have right now is an idiot in my opinion, but why do you have to call him a cracker? You need to stop calling everyone else racist, when you are obviiously the raciset bigotted jack ass. SHUT UP!

233. I can't understand after all this time people are still talking shit when it comes to balck and white .
We are all gods people no color is going to change that and we are all going to have to anwer to him when the time comes .
I think all of you need to stop this shit and know that there is war going on and our kids are getting killed because one person thought and things becuase of Oil they should. I don't think the kids that are in war someone is looking at them and say oh no he is white or back he or she should not die because of his color .
We all need to put this shit in the past and move on and live our lives the best way we can.

234. Do we know what race this couple is? I didn't see anything in this article that gave that information. They could be of any race -- or any combination of races!

Also, how do we know that this isn't just some cute story that Smith told for the sake of publicity? I think that we're probably making too much of something that is a really a non issue. Instead, we need to focus our energy working to constructively solve real problems. If we want to work on racism, lets try to build communication, teach our children to appreciate one another and stop all of this devisiveness. We all have things in common. Let's rally around those points and stop the hatefulness!

235. To Kim: Why can't you get it through your head that the president of the United States has virtually no power over the average citizen unless marshall law has been declared, it is the job of the local establishment to control the fate of their population. The president cannot order a city can be evacuated except under extraordinary circumstances. Nagan 100% refused to follow the guidelines for just such as a diasterous event that they had practiced for just a few months before Katrina. The federal government can only function as a rescue and recovery unit after the state, city, and county officials have signed off on such action. CNN evidently never studied civics. NAGAN is the culprit with the most blood on his hands followed by the corrupt LA officials especially the sorry humans in the N.O. police department. Look at disaster relief in all the gulf states and you will find almost all of the other areas handled this about as well as it can be handled. People have to understand it is your local and state officials who are responsible for your welfare when the flood waters hit or the wind storms take your house. No president can come down to your home town and baby sit you - get off your butt, dig yourself out, and get on with your life. (P.S. Katrina did not hit N.O.)

236. I am a black female, and there is NO-WAY!, I am going to vote for the person responsible for my life for 4yrs. simply because there black? plez now thats a truely ignorant thing to say.Hillary has a history we know about, personally I believe that we are being tricked into voteing for a Muselum. and no they look nothing alike, will has nice pink lips, while Obama has dark weed smoker-lips. And to Marcia #76 it is true that the entire Gulfcoast was effected by Katrina, BUT!,the whole world saw how for 6-7 days and nights the black community of Nwe Orleans was left to suffer in high water, on top of roofs, or in that nasty as Dome by our Government. With no food or water,and if the stole food or water they ordered shot by there (white) female Govenor for what?, food and water, battery's,flashlights that were never going to be any good to anyone. So even though you suffered loss in Mississippi? don't even try to compare the two. And farrah calling people "crackers" while accussing others of raceism is just plain ignorant! Even if they do say the N-word so what!, them saying it is there ignorance, you responding to it is yours.

237. I couldn't believe all the negative comments associated with this pairing...One has to wonder why those individuals have such an ugly view of the world to assume that the comparison was made based solely that the two individuals were black. It couldn't possibly have been that both while being attractive (more so for Will), are very intelligent and out-spoken, caring individuals with morals and family values to boot. I feel very sorry for those people that can't see any meaning past racism. I do think that Bird was right on in thinking it is about the ears!

239. hell no resemblance at all..Will Smith is sexy and has persona and he has no muslim blood running through his veins...Barack Hussein Obama..Come on folks! A US President with the name Barack Hussein Obama?????
get real! Oh and Will Smith has a great bod unlike Obama's wimpy one! Barack is a seperatist too and a real far left owned by the far left libs in Hollywood... I and my family will gladly pass but not to shrill Hillary either as she is a socialist! The democratic party has gone nutso and stupid and totally whacko!

240. I agree with Bird #4 . It is the ears of Obama and Will nothing more the Ears have it.
Obama does resemble the Kristoff St John.
