 Why
do you want to know the life story of oprah winfrey?
She represents the possibilities that can come true in a great
democracy like the United States. Her
story has been written about many times; for instance, in novels where a
person’s humble beginnings doesn’t have to remain that way because of
the opportunities that the United States has to offer.
Secondly, freedom of
speech is a sacred belief that many citizens hold dear.
Oprah is one example of the many media outlets, from variety talk
shows to comedy shows, from drama to sitcoms, from interviews to opinions
about the news, that exercise freedom of speech.
 The
danger is when only a few owners have control of what news will be given
to the public. This would be
like force-feeding millions of people to worship God only through one
denomination.
In a country that
exercises freedom of religion as well as freedom of speech, public figures
like Oprah, with dedication, work, stamina, energy, a supporting staff, to
name only a few, can have the life story she has because of the
possibilities in great countries like the United States.

Vernita was 20 years old and worked as a maid. Vernon was enlisted in the
armed forces."
"The first six
years of Oprah's life was spent on a farm in Kosciusko, where she lived
