Sir Charles and I agree! Senator Barack Obama should be the next President.

Who doesn't love Charles Barkley?

Thanks to JA Adande, Sir Charles came on the show this week, and he was his usual brilliant self. Barkley has obsessively tells the truth, which is a rare quality in this world.

We started out talking about NBA hoops, and he thinks the West will be won by either the Lakers, the Spurs or the Jazz. I asked him if Kobe's interview tirade was a good thing or a bad thing. He says that on the whole, you've got to give Kobe credit for shaking up the organization.

Then I got Charles into politics. I know he's an Obama supporter like me and JA and producer Drew Belzer and Dave Damashek and program director Larry Gifford. In fact, all the cool people I know are supporting Senator Obama. Charles agrees with me. Hillary is trying to steal the nomination from him.

Here's a link to the whole interview.
