Oprah Joins Obama On Campaign Trail

Des Moines, IO (CNS) - Queen of Daytime TV Oprah Winfrey will be going on the road to join Senator Barrack Obama on his presidential campaign trail in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina.

The presidential hopeful had this to say about the billionaire celebrity making a hands-on movement to campaign for him. He says, "She says she wants to do something, which I was actually surprised by." He adds, "But I think it's interesting to her."

Winfrey's debut appearance would be on December 8th in Iowa with visits to Des Moines and Cedar Rapids. The following day, December 9, she'll be making a stop over at Columbia, S.C. and then finally heading towards Manchester, N.H.

It has been speculated whether the decision to personally support Obama was the result of former President Clinton supporting his wife, Senator Hillary Clinton, who is also in the running for the presidential seat.

Months ago, Winfrey has already vocalized her support to the candidate. And in September, Winfrey has successfully raised $3 million for Obama's campaign for the 2008 elections.
