Will Smith: 'Barack Obama as an Idea Marks an Evolutionary Flash Point for Humanity'

“Barack Obama as a person is a fantastic individual, but Barack Obama as an idea marks an evolutionary flash point for humanity,” gushed actor Will Smith, who will co-host Friday's Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Oslo. His idealization of Obama came during a recorded interview, from Norway, with CNN's Dan Lothian run shortly before 5 PM EST on Thursday's The Situation Room.

Asked if Obama had really earned the peace prize, Smith's wife, actress Jada Pickett Smith who will co-host the concert with her husband, insisted: “All I can say is that our President has opened his arms to the world and he has been a huge symbol of change himself. So, I have to say that I was quite honored when he was bestowed the Nobel Peace Prize.” Will Smith chimed in with how “they've been giving out that award for a hundred and some years, so they get kind of good at picking” the honoree.

Ahhh. Will Smith, the great bard, the sage of ages. Please bestow on us your pearls of wisdom and kernels of knowledge.

Especially given your delusional bio wherein you state you could have matriculated at MIT (per wikipedia):

“According to Smith, “My mother, who worked for the School Board of Philadelphia, had a friend who was the admissions officer at MIT. I had pretty high SAT scores and they needed black kids, so I probably could have gotten in. But I had no intention of going to college.”[10]”

[ronnie raygun]

A mediocre actor and his side kick who all of a sudden realized they have a brain but we realize that brain is not connected

This statement was far worse than “I Am Legend”. Both blew chunks.

[El Cid]

"Evolutionary Flashpoint for Humanity" ...

vs.

"Day of Infamy for the United States"

I know which one I consider November 4th, 2008 (and it doesn't have anything to do with evolutionary flashers...)

[Liberty Valance]

Will is an excellent actor with great delivery and passion. I wonder who wrote that one for him?

[shibumi]

You are 100% correct Will (but maybe not the way you think.)

When you see the “flash”, you best take cover.

Especially given your delusional bio wherein you state you could have matriculated at MIT (per wikipedia):

He is way too delusional if he thinks that he can get into MIT with just connections and high SATs. It takes more than a GPA of 4.0 to even be considered at MIT. You need to have had various extra-curricular academmic activities during high school, and of course A LOT of money, and a LOT of BRAINS. I don't think Will Smith had any of these when he was considering "matriculating" at MIT.

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith beard for each other.

[denydenydeny]

Scientology double talk. Smith has more or less become a member of the Church of Scientology.
