Dennis Hopper: ‘I pray to God that Obama wins’ October 14, 2008 | by MP
Yawn.
One of Hollywood’s few Republicans has switched his vote. Dennis Hopper, 72, told reporters in France that he’s praying for an Obama victory, despite decades as a Bush supporter.
“I voted for Bush, father and son, but this time I’ll vote for Obama,” he told journalists at the opening of a show on his life and work.
“I was the first person in my family to have been Republican,” he added. “For most of my life I wasn’t on the left.”
“I pray God, Barack Obama is elected,” he said, calling the current administration’s many “lies.”
Hopper stars in “An American Carol,” a conservative comedy that spoofed Michael Moore and last donated money, in 2004, the RNC.
