She had previously debated whether to go Democratic or Republican, but in the new issue of Vanity Fair Germany, The Changeling star Angelina Jolie proudly proclaims that she’s voting for Barack Obama!
After chatting about her political thoughts, Angie focuses on the one thing that means most in her life — her family!
Check out some highlights of Angelina Jolie’s interview. The woman is a saint!
Angelina on backing Barack Obama: “Obama is fighting for international justice, he wants to intervene militarily in genocides abroad, and he wants to close down Guantanamo Bay. They are things which could move me to vote for him, not his roots. Of course, an American president like Barack Obama would be great for my family.”Angelina on being a proud American: “I am very proud of being American, and all my children have got American passports. For me, our family is just what America is - a melting pot, a mixture of many different races and nations. My children should be proud of their Asian and African roots, but that in no way means [is] a lack of respect for the fact that they and their parents are Americans.”
Angelina on the twins, Knox and Vivienne: “It’s a damned arduous business, and we are often simply whacked out because it is twice as hard with two babies as with one. But it also makes for double the fun. After we flew back from Europe, we were all suffering a bit from jetlag. We were all in bed early, but at half past four, they were awake and making a real racket. Brad took care of them. He said to me, ‘Go back to sleep, you’re back to work in the morning,’ and moved into the kids’ room with them. He is an astounding father, full of devotion.”
Angelina on the twins being on the same schedule: “Every three hours they get hungry, then I have to satisfy them. But that’s OK, the two of them are totally sweet. When you see them, you think they were made for each other. They laugh together, they sniff each other, touch each other. It is beautiful.”
Angelina on struggling to find some alone time with beau Brad Pitt: “Sometimes, at the end of the day, we try to retire to the bathroom to be undisturbed. But then [the kids] hear the water running and want to come in and, yet again, we are all together. But that doesn’t disturb us because they are great kids.”
Angelina on what she wants most: “I would like to have more freedom, especially to have the chance to be more spontaneous with my kids. Would I like to be able to walk through the streets with my kids? Of course. Would I like to be able to wander around Manhattan and buy them an ice cream like other mothers? Of course. But it is not possible. On the other hand, every morning I wake up with the people who are the most dear to me in the whole world. That’s why I don’t feel isolated from that, which is important to me. It helps, of course, that Brad knows all about it, but he’s experienced it even more than me. We often talk about it and try to make the best of things. But I am very grateful for our life and everything that we have.”

Cant stand them - and this post will start alot of shit.
Since they love obama - - Please tell your “bodyguards” to lay down their weapons, ok?
I love her.
Why in the hell should she care IF Obama gets the white house?
She doesnt live here she has tons of money so fuck her
Angelina Jolie has starred in thrillers like The Bone Collector and Taking Lives, blockbusters such as Gone in Sixty Seconds, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, A Mighty Heart, and Wanted. She’s also famous for her headlining way of life. From her well-documented marriage to Billy Bob Thornton to her highly publicized romance with Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie is famous for both her personal and professional lives.
Sexiness
Consistently ranked at the top of all the “sexiest women†lists, Angelina Jolie simply oozes sex appeal. Whether she’s a blonde, a brunette or she has “Billy Bob†tattooed across her arm, Angelina Jolie always looks hot, even when she’s not trying.
Her facial features are flawless, her breasts are perfect and her body is well-proportioned. As far as we know, Angelina Jolie hasn’t mauled herself via plastic surgery just yet. She is the epitome of beauty whether she’s wearing a headscarf in an African refugee camp or she’s donning a designer gown on the red carpet.
And those lips…
Post number 5
Kinda like a red shiney apple, huh?
Then, you bite into it, and it is rotten as fuck
#6, sort of like your mother without the shiny part.
Hey post number 7-
Your real grown up huh?
Liberal I take it.
People with names like hotbitch and even sugar lips………….They are the ones that I find in REAL LIFE are pimpled faced, fat, and stinky.
The ones with names like fat ass and cow, are the ones that are real knock outs.
I have to many years on the great http://www…………………..
I know your kind
i cancelled my script to vanity fair. they wouldn’t have printed the article if she were voting for mcCain. she and brad are just part of the ignorant hollywood libs!
what about bejeebus sounds like a fat cow to me.
Obama is gonna win, bitches!
WTF Suzy?
.
I can totally imagine Angelina sitting on her throne in a matronly gown, surrounded by her 15 kids and talking in her British/French/American accent that she made up to sound superior to everyone else.. HAHA…
.
Don’t get your panties in a bunch, I’m happy for her that she leads such a glorious and fulfilling life, it just sucks that every interview she has ever done is the same.
He’ll be great for her family…..because he’s a man of color? Oh, wow. Angelina, usually you do a much better job of making yourself sound kind of smart Did your manager let you write your own response today? *slaps Angie’s wrist* Bad Angie. Not allowed to talk anymore without prior approval from intelligent beings.
she reads what is said about her. i remember a lot of people complaining her praising john mccain because obama was better president for her family. so now she says it in an interview. see right through those two
while she lives in france and germany and italy and flies in her private jets- wow- what a hypocrite! I thought obama didn’t LIKE war. Talk about someone who will say anything to be elected! he also likes domestic terrorists and videos of children chanting his name like he’s a cult god.
Obama wont affect her but for the middle and lower class about to get raped by Obama’s tax plan, I just cant understand the support.
America has spoken…and they want CHANGE!!
Elect Obama and thats all that you will have left in your bank account !
But to mighty godess - -it wont bother her a damn bit
Bejeebus ,If all the interviewers asks the same questions then her responses will be the same. I’m always amazed at why people, who can’t stand these two, waste your time and energy clicking on topics related to them. I can’t stand many celebrities yet I have never posted on any posts related to them.
“They laugh together, they sniff each other, touch each other” Seriously? How old are the twins 12 weeks. They sniff each other? They laugh together - at what. Really if any other woman said this the media woud cruficy her. This sounds so stupid that it makes me wonder who acurate the other stuff she said is.
Um, she is stuip.
#18 I have read many of her haters say they want to bring her down and that’s why they spend so much time on her. I have no idea why though. I guess because they are in love with Brad Pitt.
I love this woman!! She is just so interesting and seems to genuine with everything she says. She is aware of the world around her and she is smart. She knows what she is talking about. Her life seems pretty normal actually, with Brad and the kids. I don’t understand how anyone could not like her to be honest.
she is one of the very few entretainers that actually uses her fame helping others.
Of course that is not a very republican way of behaving: collecting fortunes for no others than themselves …not even in the form of taxes. GREED, is not something creepublicans fight. So of course understanding the international effects that the republican barbaric capitalism has impossed on the world economy is NOT something easy to understand for them.
haha when arasto calls her a saint, that’s just begging for negative comments.
i have liked her more over the years. she doesn’t have to give money or time to charity. no one HAS to. it’s just nice when a person chooses to.
mothers are figurative about their infants all the time. i don’t take it literally that her twins “laugh, sniff, or touch each other”.
GAG She makes me sick!
She’s fantastic and has done far more work for the truly less fortunate than any of you idiot naysayers. Lift a finger for others for once THEN criticize.
