SPIKE LEE - LEE BACKS OBAMA TO OVERCOME CRITICS
6th Annual Behind The Lens Award Honoring Spike Lee - Arrivals
held at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel
Beverly Hills, California USA ....
Filmmaker SPIKE LEE insists recent criticism of presidential hopeful BARACK OBAMA will not affect his race for the White House.
Outspoken civil rights campaigner Reverend Jesse Jackson was forced to apologise to Obama on Wednesday (09Jul08) after he was overheard saying the politician talking "down" to the black community.
And despite the criticism, Lee believes Obama will succeed at bringing "seismic" change to the world.
He says, "I don't think his (Jackson's) comments help anybody. It's just unfortunate.
"When (Obama is elected) happens, it will change everything. ... You'll have to measure time by 'Before Obama' and 'After Obama'.
"It's an exciting time to be alive now. Everything's going to be affected by this seismic change in the universe."
