Paris for president!
Posted by Jane Murphy
Remember last week's controversial campaign ad by US presidential candidate John McCain?
The ad showed footage of McCain's increasingly popular rival Barack Obama, alongside unsolicited shots of Paris Hilton and Britney Spears.
Well, now Ms Hilton has soared in my estimation (yes, really) by releasing an actually-quite-funny video in response to McCain's ad.
In it, she refers to McCain as "that wrinkly white-haired guy" and says she wants America to know she's, "like, totally ready to lead". She also suggests Rihanna would make an excellent vice-president.
Watch the whole video here - then tell us what you think...

She is so stupid, she doesn't even know that she's just given McCain lot's of publicity! God Paris you really are "thick in the head"

I think that it's a very smart way to get back at McCain. It's nice to see humor in politics. You may not like Paris, but this was a very interesting thing to pull off.
On a side note, I would prefer to hear the candidates speak of real issues instead of playing around with who's a celebrity and who isn't.

Don't understand the negative comments above. Give the girl a break. This is a hillarious spoof so don't take it seriously you idiots that do. Hilton scores and the old wrinkly guy loses!!
