Dear Ellen,

While I find you funny as hell and respect you as a person, I defy you to write 20 factual reasons why you support Hillary. Please email me your response. I will be happy to then send you 20 factual reasons why I support Obama. Needless to say, neither of us will seek the help of professional writers in this effort.

Thank you, Barry G.

Ellen,
Thanks for showing both Democratic candidates in an equally positive light. I enjoy your show and your attitude. At first I was undecided about both candidates but the negative, divisive and ego-driven comments that Hillary and the ex-President have used during this campaign turned me off and pushed me to team Obama. How you act and what you say never fails to show the way - to how you will lead.

Strength of character, faith, love and humility were instilled in me as a child. My parents raised me like this in hopes that what they taught me as a child would blossom and take hold when I was on my own and free to make my own decisions. And that's what I see in Obama. I see someone who has strength of character, love of country and love of his fellow man before he was even in the political arena and now that he has had time to blossom, his hope has become infectious throughout America.

It's time that Conservative Christians and Demeaning Democrats realize that his message of hope, faith and unity in America is what true spirituality is about. For me, being a Christian is not about taking away the rights of others who I may or may not agree with - but it's about hope that we can do better, faith that this day will come and on that day we will stand unified instead of fall divided.

Dear Ellen
I have been reading all of the comments about you supporting Hillary. I totally agree. Who better for support than Ellen. Oprah has nothing on you. Yes I am a man that is going to vote for Hillary. The media has been so unfair to her and has been so polite to Barak. Barak would not be where he is today if Oprah had not endorsed him. Let's turn the tables and show what power that Ellen has over Oprah.

Actually, Obama's commercial is right on target..it is not that the phone gets answered, but the judgment of the person who answers the phone. Hillary in one of the reasons our children are dying in Iraq. She did not have the courage or judgment to stand against Bush after 9/11. Obama voted against Bush's war when it was unpopular to make that vote and now we know that judgment was correct. I am not against all that Hillary has done, but when it comes to matters of national security, Hillary's judgement has proven to be questionable.

Ellen I just gain so much respect for you. I love Hillary and I am glad you did this!!!

Did anyone see the new commercials out?
Hillary's came out first-
then Obama was like a toddler and wanted his commercial too since Hillary had one he thought he should have one- fine then get one so what does he do? What he always does? He copied Hillary!
Can Obama ever do anything on his own???

Ellen,
thank you for giving hillary a chance to be a part of your show. How often people forget how much of a contribution women are to the world. How quickly we dismiss the fact that women bear children . How many families are held together by a woman. a womans love can be unconditional. Hillary made a commitment to her husband and when times were hard she stuck with him. And that is exactly why i believe she will stick by our country's side. GO HILLARY! GET IT STARTED ON DAY ONE!- clean up bush's mess and hang curtains!
thanks ellen - love ya

Ellen you are awesome and I have been a fan of yours since your very first show. You are such a wonderful role model for women and so is Hillary. This such a wonderful time in history, I am so proud of the Democratic party. Obama is my candidate but I will gladly vote for her if she is the nominee. I did love this showing of her, I could tell she felt comfortable with you, as you make all your guests feel this way--you ROCK!!!! Keep doing what you do girl, you keep us smiling!

Hillary is DO-er.

All one has to do is look and analize her track record. In all debates, she was asked the hard questions first and her competitor usually mirrored her ideas and then embellished it.

Both are good candidates but only one has the resumee to put her money where her mouth is and that should be important when electing the next person to run this country.

She has an uphill battle but hopefully she pulls it off. Go Hill!!!

I love Hillary. She's my candidate.

And I LOVE ELLEN!!

I would like to say that I support Hillary for president. As much as I feel the tug to vote for her as a woman and as a compassionate person, intellectually, I cannot support a socialist agenda. I am an older democrat than most of those who watch Ellen's show so I remember when the Democratic Party was not synonymous with socialism. It is a shame because I truly believe Hillary cares. It is her solutions that I cannot abide by. I travel often to France and while the socialist governance is fine for those who are glad to accept what the government delivers, it is stifling for the truly enterprising. Anyone who dreams of getting beyond their circumstance and possibly creating a better future for their children are left with only the limitations of what the government can provide. Those that are caught in the prison of poverty have hope in the United States. Those that are caught in the prison of government sustenance have no hope in France.

Ellen, EXACTLY!!! Hillary finds creative solutions, no matter how large or small the issue. And that is one of the two main reasons tha moved me early on from leaning toward Obama to supporting Hillary completely. And your thinking of "glitter" to demonstrate this incredible skill is brilliant. I want Hillary for President and you for Vice President!!!

That was a great clip of you and Hillary. It showed that she's a real person with a good sense of humor. I hope you would support her the way that Oprah has supported Obama. You connect with your viewers and maybe it would help her with the nomination. She has more experience and has solutions for our countries problems.

end entry

It is great to see that Senator Clinton can be shown in a positive way. I have been so turned off at the way the press is about to pick our next President. Thanks Ellen!

Ellen, you MUST make a commercial with Hillary!

Barak has seen his popularity and donations grow ONLY because of Oprah.

Hillary stands on her own, no one on stage with her and I know that with your help, she will do even better.

I like glitter and I will make you a special "glitter gift" if you make a commercial with Hillary.

Go Hillary!

Thank you for information on how to support Hillary. Can she come back for a thank you and perhaps generate more money?

Ellen you are awesome...we love you and Hillary too! For so long now I have felt Hillary was not getting a fair representation on so many levels. I'm glad she isn't backing down from the Obama fantasy machine...I am more impressed with her everyday. Besides the fact that she is the most qualified...she's presenting her case on the good old boy's field...Go Hillary!

You're the best Ellen!
