Kirsten Dunst Backs Barack Obama 8/19/08

Actress Kirsten Dunst has vowed to do "whatever is necessary" to ensure U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama is elected into office. The 26-year-old is endorsing the Democrat and insists she is prepared to go to great lengths to help him win the White House race.

She says, "I absolutely adore him and I'll do whatever is necessary to help him become the next president. I'm so excited that he is running. "I'm aware that he does have some factors against him.

For example, his father is African, and not an African-American, and he doesn't have much experience. And Dunst is convinced that because Obama is so open-minded, he is the best person for the job.

She adds, "(But) I think he can do a lot for people of my generation. He's such a dashing statesman. I love that he just lays it all on the table. He already wrote the book. He's just everything you want a president to be."
