Talk Show Queen Oprah Winfrey Endorses Hillary Clinton

'Because I am for Barack does not mean I am against Hillary or anybody else,' Winfrey said during an interview with CNN.

The queen of talk told Larry King, 'I have not one negative thing to say about Hillary Clinton.'

Winfrey had not used her star power to push any political candidate into office before Obama.

She told King she was inspired to do it then 'because I know him personally.'

'I think that what he stands for, what he has proven that he can stand for, what he has shown was worth me going out on a limb for – and I haven’t done it in the past because I haven’t felt that anybody, I didn’t know anybody well enough to be able to say, I believe in this person.'

The influential talk-show host says Clinton, who is striving to become the first woman president, has her support in the 2016 election.

'America, it's about time that we make that decision,' Winfrey told Entertainment Tonight, endorsing Clinton.

Winfrey passed over Clinton in the 2008 Democratic primary for Barack Obama, the nation's first black president. Term limited, Obama's on his way out this year, and she's now backing Clinton.

She said at the time that it wasn't personal, and she has 'great respect' for the former first lady.

In Clinton now, Winfrey sees the possibility of making history again by helping to put the first woman in the Oval Office.

'I really believe that that is going to happen,' she told Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday evening at the premiere of Greenleaf, a new drama on OWN.

Winfrey said that 'regardless of your politics, it’s a seminal moment for women.'

'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.'

Using Clinton's slogan, Winfrey added, 'I'm with her.'

Winfrey was just at the White House this week for the United State of Women Summit. She interviewed Michelle Obama at the summit, and they gushed about the president's 'swag.'

Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton meanwhile spent the week fighting with presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump about the best way to defeat ISIS.

Trump belittled them for avoiding the term 'radical Islamic terrorism' as he continued his campaign to win the general election.
