Oprah Winfrey Makes A Passionate Speech At The Democratic National Convention, Urges Votes For Kamala Harris

Buy Me A Coffee

Oprah Winfrey just stole the show at the Democratic National Convention, and honestly, it’s no surprise — because when Oprah speaks, people listen… or at least pretend to while imagining what they’d do with all those free cars she used to give away.

Our favorite media mogul, queen of daytime TV, and the lady responsible for adding the phrase “You get a car!” into everyday language, graced the stage on a Wednesday night (because that’s when all dramatic things happen, right?) at the United Center in Chicago. Oprah didn’t just speak, though. Oh no, she dropped truth bombs like they were designer handbags at one of her iconic giveaways.

First off, Oprah broke the news: she’s an Independent voter. Cue gasps from the crowd. But wait, there’s more! She didn’t just share her voting status and call it a night. Nope. She urged her fellow independents to join her on the “Vote Kamala Harris” train. (It’s a smooth ride, complete with complimentary chai lattes and hope for the future.)

And then came the zinger. Referring to Trump’s recent interesting comment about how voting once could mean never having to do it again (because democracy is just too exhausting, obviously), Oprah quipped: “There’s a certain candidate that says if we just go to the polls this one time, we’ll never have to do it again.” The crowd? Loving it. Oprah? Unbothered. Democracy? Clutching its pearls.

Oprah, with the finesse of someone who’s given away more free stuff than Santa Claus, laid down some serious truth: “Values and character matter most of all,” she preached. And let’s be real — if Oprah says values and character matter, you believe her. She’s got more influence than your grandma with the family secret cookie recipe.

Then came the finale: “Common sense tells you Kamala Harris and Tim Walz can give us decency and respect.” (Yes, common sense, not the kind you need a PhD to understand.) Oprah practically implored America to choose the Constitution over… well, questionable reality TV stars. And if anyone knows a thing or two about leadership, it’s the woman who’s built an empire on empathy, wisdom, and really great book club recommendations.

The speech wrapped up with a note about optimism and inclusion — basically, she wants us all to be a little more like Oprah and a little less like a soap opera. And honestly? If anyone can inspire that kind of transformation, it’s her.

The full speech is below, but spoiler alert: It’s just as magical as you’d expect. And no, sadly, there were no car giveaways this time.
