Hopper 'Prays' For President Obama

Actor Dennis Hopper is seeking divine intervention to influence the forthcoming U.S. presidential elections - insisting he prays for Barack Obama to be voted in as America's next President.

The Easy Rider star is rooting for the Democratic leader to win the race to the White House in November, and admits he "prays" the politician is victorious.

And Hopper admits it wasn't an obvious choice to back Obama - because he has supported the Republican party all his voting life.

He says, "I pray God, Barack Obama is elected.

"I voted for Bush, father and son, but this time I'll vote for Obama. I was the first person in my family to have been Republican. For most of my life I wasn't on the left."

According to reports, Hopper donated $2,000 (GBP1,800) to the Republican National Committee in 2004 and 2005.

2. It's about time, I've always found it amazing that he'd star in a movie like Easy Rider

but vote Republican.

3. Maybe the experience of acting in "An American Carol" shook him up. nt

5. And just after he starred in David Schmucker's dreck of a movie

"An American Carol" as well. I'd lost all hope for him so this is good to see. Well done for seeing the light Mr Hopper
