Leonardo DiCaprio is crossing his fingers for a US election win by Democrat Barack Obama and he believes the rest of the world is, too.
"I think it is the true ideals and dreams of America to have an African-American president named Barack Obama to be the representation of the United States at a time like this," said DiCaprio, in Paris as co-star of Middle-East themed movie Body of Lies.
Obama, DiCaprio went on, is "a man that has great policies, a man that is a great intellectual, who knows what he's doing".
"I've my fingers crossed that he will win because I think he'll make some dramatic changes in our country that we're looking for, but the rest of the world is as well."
Talking to reporters about his role as a gritty CIA operative tracking terrorists in Ridley Scott's latest movie on conflict between the West and the Arab world, DiCaprio said that in this troubled world, most countries were rooting for Obama.
Aside the geopolitical issues at hand, the Democrat if elected needed to clean up US environmental action, he said.
DiCaprio, who turns 34 next week, said he was working on new movie projects on the environment following his 2007 film The 11th Hour.

Pay SS taxes on Your 200 Million a film and shut up.

Obama embodies Euorpoean/Marxist dream. There. Fixed it.

OK, so the guy “talks purdy”, and every lib swoons about how intelligent he is.
Meanwhile, when he gets off prompter, or tells how many states he’s been to, or starts talking about financial/tax issues, he reveals what a real dumbass he is.
In the world of Hollywood, Leonardo DiCaprio passes for a “tough guy,” so it’s no surprise that inhabitants of that world see “leader” in Obama.
“Obama embodies America dream”
Leonardo, I don’t know what planet you live on, but the American dream is NOT socialism!!!!
DiCaprio is an utter moron.
And his ex is now banging a top-tier QB.
Good thing for Leo that he’s coming out for him, publicly anyway. To Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis and the rest of the Hollywood pubs? To the gulag!
only if the American dream was redefined to mean having terrorist friends, marxist philosophies and leaving your poor family members in squalid conditions while you live in luxury.
BARF!!
Did you just find out DiCaprio is a Democrat? He’s been pretty public about it for years.
Goes to show he wasn’t acting in Whats eating Gilbert grape.
I would consider it an honor to be described by Leonardo DiCaprio as “not an intellectual.”
I must be dyslexic.... I read the title as “Obama Embodies a Crack Pipe Dream: DiCrapio.
Obama is a real American...and “Titanic” was totally accurate
What is this preoccupation with what the rest of the world thinks or does? The rest of the world wants to see us diminished and destroyed. If it weren't for us, the "rest of the world" would still be under threat of worldwide Communist domination. If it weren't for us, the rest of the world would be struggling to be barely civilized living in mud huts and diseased slums. DiCaprio would be a nobody in a nowhere land............
American Pipe Dream
Another Hollywood fem-boy. Hollywood has really sunk to new lows trying to pass off DiCaprio and Damon as bad-ass action heroes who in reality would run for their lives if confronted by a real man.
What do you bet the little puke hasn’t even voted.
Ohhhh, how quaint...
4th rate political musings from a 3rd rate actor.
(could some patriotic soul in Hollywood kindly set this fool on fire? please????)

Did this guy even graduate from Hi School? He doesn’t know a thing about our country and our way of surviving in this world.
I don’t know about Titanic but it sure looks like the character Arnie that he played in “Gilbert Grape” is a
totally accurate portrayal of his intelligence level.
It worked for the Founding Fathers; now the Communists want a shot.
DeeCrappio....S.T.F.U. and ACT.
You gotta understand....
This is all these poor pathetic emptyheaded people have left in their miserable little lives.This is another country,this Hollywood. This is a wasteland of anorexic drama queens and pastyfaced, gaunt milquetoasts who wouldn’t know the american flag if they were wrapped up in it.
They wallow in money and call it character;
they’d sell their own mother to the highest bidder;
they engage in narcissism as if it were a religion.Only to this oligarchy is the supreme grandeur of nothingness so apparent.Morality,love of country and common decency are as foreign to them as intelligence and good taste.
So,this shouldn’t be a big surprise to anyone.
It’s not as if Movie Tough Guys from the past like Bogart were macho men in real life either.
Is this the same Leonardo DiCaprio, the faux conservationist who, just after the 2000 election in which he supported the Algore, made a film called “The Beach” in Thailand where he and the film company caused $20 million in damage?? $20 million that Thailand had to spend to restore the beach before it could be re-opened to the public??
And, is this the same Leonardo DiCaprio, arch moron, who, during the 2000 election, breathlessly told the DBM how he was able to share the same stage with Algore “looking all hard core” (whatever the h*ll THAT means!!)???
And, has this same Leaonardo DiCaprio taken to the same Algore “Do as I say not as I do” lifestyle in which he jets all over the world in his fuel guzzling Gulfstream, just like his leftist, globull warming hero Algore, ignoring the size of his carbon footprint???
Frankly, I find Leonardo DiCaprio to be a pointy-headed little leftist sock puppet for Algore whose opinions and movies I avoid like the plague!!!
If, on the off chance, Obama wins this thing, I very much look forward to watching DiCaprio and all the other Hollywood hotshots tying themselves in knots to avoid paying income and FICA taxes on their out-sized paychecks.
“What do you bet the little puke hasnt even voted.”
I wish.
The reality is that Acorn has probably voted in his name already. Time and time and time again.
After all....... HE’S THE KING OF THE WORLD.
What a jackass.
Norris, Schwarzenegger, Eastwood, Stallone, Willis, John Wayne....
Do we really want to compare today’s crop of stars to the old masculine ideal?

No, I just decided to impose this new sanction on him. I’m sure he is quaking in his boots now.
Well, he got that part right, anyway. He's already on my list but maybe I should add him again for this kind of stupidity.
Obama embodies Arafat dream: Prole
Like all of the other Hollywood libs, he is a terrible judge of character. If you throw out all of the other issues, McCain wins on character alone.
Obama is a manchurian candidate. Sarah Palin IS the American dream. She is the embodiment of “...we the people, of the people, and by the people.”
What does race have to do with it, Leo?
What a maroon.
DiCaprio: useful IDIOT
I thought Dicaprio drowned on the Titantic.
