Tom Hanks Quips: ‘Four More Years’ For Obama
By Cheryl K. Chumley-The Washington Times October 4, 2013
Conspiracy theorists, be on alert. Hollywood icon Tom Hanks may not have been joking when he said he wanted President Obama to run for a third term — over the prohibitions of the Constitution.
Mr. Hanks, who’s starring in the soon-to-be-released “Captain Phillips” and was in Washington, D.C., this week for a premiere showing at the Newseum, declared his choice for president for 2016: Mr. Obama, The Hill reported.
“I’m voting for Barack Obama, 2016,” he said. “Yes I am. Four more years.”
Mr. Hanks reportedly laughed while speaking. But do a Bing search on “Obama seeks third term,” and the more than 2 million hits that come back reveal the notion is both widely discussed and widely reported. MSN, for instance, in August reported on an investor — Porter Stansberry — who claims the president is secretly planning a third term

He was great in Saving Private Ryan. I wish he would keep his mouth shut on politics. Seems like a good guy for the most part, but a hopelessly brain-washed liberal democrat.
At least that would have been legal.
“OMG. Doesn’t he care that half of us will not to pay to see his movies for his Obama stupidity?”
He’s already been paid, what does he care. If he has a piece of the movie, that’s just gravy.
No surprise from the commie Hollywood pukes.
A state of emergency will allow elections to be put off.
I firmly think he is trying to start a civil war, either black on white, or with the conservatives (such as his shutting down memorials, etc)
Things are going to be bad, IMO.
I’m absolutely with you on the doofus part, as far as the acting? MEH!
Tom hanks really is Forest Gump.
Stupid is, as stupid does.
Is he blanking stupid?!
He did help with the WW2 Memorial.
Although, I wonder if he has any quotes on file about the latest events....

So what if be helped ? He’s rich and it was good publicity for those consumers who would pay for and appreciate “saving Private Ryan”.
He also did a movie about being a queer lawyer with AIDS.
He’s an a actor. His opinion is not exalted because of a script.
Was gonna see his movie. Not now.
Michelle Obama in 2016. It would not be without precedent in the world.
What a shame; I was planning to go see his new movie. Guess I’ll find something else to do.
...giving praise and accolades to an arrogant, narcissist, commie pusher President that p#isses on their graves on a daily basis...???
From the son of one of those who sacrificed....FUTH!
My dad would be thoroughly disgusted at the direction the country has gone...and YOUR industry has been front and center in turning it into a place he would not recognize(nor want to)...perhaps even to the extent of actually bringing into question the worth of the sacrifice he and others made...sacrifices on behalf of generations of ingrates who have been propagandized and conditioned to throw it all away...and for what?...selfishness?...fame?...greed?...perversion?
...bet you and your comrades are awfully proud of what you've accomplished.
Hollywood says(only NOW that one of their own is President)..."I GOT YOUR SIX!" .
What a freaking joke...they've deep-sixed America with their leftist propaganda directed at the young and the senseless...huck follywood.
this stinks-—I really want to see
“Captain Phillips”.
first trailer in a while that has intrigued
me-—not a totally computer generated
piece of fantasy-—
Why continuously alienate half of your potential audience?
This is not the first time he's made such asinine statements.
He's not going to be "America's sweetheart" forever.
He's probably got more staying power than Jim Carrey,(who in my opinion has destroyed his own career), but not for long if he keeps this up.
Castaway was a lot better than Captain Phillips.
I liked Tom Hanks more when he made movies like “Bachelor Party.”
I don’t believe there will be any more ‘terms’ for him to have another one.
