I love the depth and warmth of her spirit. You can tell that she really enjoys philanthropy. I also like that someone who grew up so poor now gives back to the poorest people in this country and abroad. Another thing I like about her shows is that she does not rely on one style of topic all the time. Sure, she has her share of celebrity shows, but there are also episodes in which she caters to the regular citizen.

I think she's a great example of the American dream...someone who rises from absolute poverty to use this country to become rich and give back to the less fortunate. Her story is truly inspiring.

I love Oprah. Because she has integrity, passion in everything she does, compassion for others even if they are not celebrities. She loves to be involve. She is not like a politician who brags and brags but do nothing. She takes action into her hands. And aside for that she is witty and yet funny. You can say that she is not just pretending. She is a true person. I really would like to meet her someday. That would be great to hear her insights personally. What also love from her show. It tackles many side of life and many gendra. It is not for the celebrities only but also for the cashier at the supermarket, the stay home mom, and every persons of different color, sizes and nations. It is so informative. And it also opens your eyes to issues most people tried to avoid. The persons' experiences and messages really reached out to you too. There is always an impact, a good feeling about yourself and sometimes a realization about your life. I can go on and on talking about her. But I really love Oprah. She is really someone to look up too. I think if a lot of people had her strength, point of views, way of thinking and her good heart. We would be really living with angels. Have a nice day my friend! (^^,)

i do love oprah. i was asked once that if i could be another person for a day, who would it be. It was a no-brainer for me. Without even thinking, Oprah Winfrey came out of my mouth. I love her because she is a person with passion, a person who does things she love and does it the best way she could. She is a person of integrity, and a person of compassion. And a very generous one at that, oooh..the freebies you get from Oprah. :) And she also is a very genuine person. It shows. And yup, i watch her TV show. I love the sincerity of the show. I love how it has humor, has heartaches, has lessons. It is very inspiring, very insightful, and really touches my heart.

i love her generosity, kindness, sensitivity, her industry in work and in touching other people's lives through her works. and despite her huge stature in life, she has remained humble and sincere in what she does - you still can see the human side of her - her giggles and joys, just like us; her sentimentality and tears whenever she's touched w/ anguish - very much like us, well, not quite likely with all the money she has in the world - but she has used her money and influence wisely to help other people in many parts of the world - that's very rare for someone who is not a politician or a diplomat. she walks the talk, and use talk to touch more lives. her tv is practical and sensible and comforting and inspiring. she's bigger than life. i couldn't think of anybody else to replace her - not in the longest time.

One thing I like about Oprah is that she uses her money to help the poor. Her South African school is a true inspiration and blessing to the future of humanity. I do like how her emotions vary with the topics presented. She doesn't seem flat or forced.

What I like about Oprah is her wit and humor. She has a kind heart and a kindred soul. She really deserves to be a billionaire. =)

She really does deserve her money. When you hear her life story and to see how she persevered from that, it is really awe-inspiring. I've always admired how she's been a billionaire and still seems like a regular human being and how she has timely and relevant topics.

I love her diversity. She talks with people of all races and religions and doesn't discern between them. All people seem equal to her. She has some very interesting health related shows on occasionally. Other times she covers global issues like forced child labor and poverty in other countries. Someone should have done so years ago. I'm glad there is one person that had the courage to do it.

She definitely has a reach across broad demographics in America and the world. I read that even in South Africa during apartheid, her show was popular. I love how she has a diverse range of topics that can appeal to the masses.
