Paris Hilton Running for President (VIDEO)

Paris Hilton Responds to John McCain

Allie @ Gone Hollywood | Tuesday, August 5, 2008

As you all know, John McCain has already started hitting below the belt, calling Barack Obama “the world’s biggest celebrity”.

McCain even went as far as comparing Barack to Paris Hilton.

Well… she’s pissed.

UPDATE (James):

For those unable to watch the video, ABC News’ Tahman Bradley has the rundown:

Sitting on a lawn chair in a bathing suit, Ms. Hilton says to camera, “Hey America, I’m Paris Hilton and I’m a celebrity too. Only I’m not from the olden days and I’m not promising change like that other guy. I’m just hot.”

She continues, “But then that wrinkly white-haired guy used me in his campaign ad, which I guess means that I’m running for president.”

And so, since Hilton has interpreted the comparison to Sen. Obama, D-Ill., as meaning that she too is qualified to be leader of the free world, Hilton, jokingly, lays out her campaign platform.

The video has some more tough words for the “wrinkly white-haired” Arizona Senator: “He’s the oldest celebrity it the world, like super old. Old enough to remember when dancing was a sin and beer was served in a bucket,” a narrator says, with a picture of Larry King and then Yoda to drive home the age point.

Team McCain isn’t missing a beat:

In the unkindest cut of all, McCain’s spokesperson Tucker Bounds tells TMZ that on the subject of energy, Paris is deeper than Barack. He says, “Sounds like Paris is taking the ‘All of the Above’ energy approach that John McCain has advocated — both alternatives and drilling. Perhaps the reality is that Paris has a more substantive energy plan than Barack Obama.”

Naturally, all of this has resulted in some enlightening discussion on the issues that matter most to Americans.
