Barack Obama was at the Meadowlands in New Jersey today along with the Kennedy’s and Robert DeNiro:
Mike Huckabee may have the support of Chuck Norris, but Barack Obama has someone new to watch his back: Robert De Niro.
You got a problem with that?
As the crowd at the Meadowlands awaited Mr. Obama’s arrival, Mr. De Niro made a surprise appearance and received a thunderous welcome. Mr. De Niro said he’d never before made a political speech, and the actor made a special appeal to the young people and first-time voters, saying that Mr. Obama gave them someone to gather behind.
“You wanted to vote, you just didn’t have anyone to vote for,” he said. ” Well you know what? I felt the same way. Until now.”
Mr. De Niro introduced Senator Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts; his niece Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of President John F. Kennedy; and Mr. Obama, who were greeted with raucous applause by the crowd, which had grown to about 3,000 by the time the candidate began his speech.
I’m not an Obama supporter but Robert DeNiro beats Chuck Norris, Hulk Hogan, and Sylvester Stallone combined.

Obama WILL be the next president and with Bobby DeNIro’s support - he cannot lose. Thank you Mr. DeNiro for being bold enough to speak up for the RIGHT candidate.
