It’s All About The Celebrity Endorsers
It’s 2008 and that means its time for every celebrity in Hollywood to start telling us why we need to vote for their favorite candidate for president. Now I for one am so happy that finally, we get to get rid of George W. Bush but when celebrities get involved they same to do more harm then good. Just having certain celebrities endorse your campaign is enough to make anyone who dislikes them angry enough to vote for the other guy.
Now America Ferrera has gotten involved in the presidential race. Both she and Amber Tamblyn (Joan of Arcadia) have announced their official support of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. Together they will serve as national co-chairs of the “Hillblazers” the youth outreach program of the Clinton campaign.
Both America Ferrera and Amber Tamblyn starred in the youth friendly film Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and both are Emmy nominated actresses (with America Ferrera winning.) But the question remains, will their endorsement of the Clinton campaign help put our first female president in office?
America briefly came under fire for a negative statement about George W Bush she made at the 2007 Film Independent Sprit Awards. Besides that one statement she’s kept her political stand rather quiet. She’s already one of the most well know young actress around and has raked up award after award. Not to mention a starring turn in Ugly Betty that has made every single featured actor a household name.
This is going to be a crazy election year as all of our presidential hopefuls try to outdo themselves with their celebrity endorsements. Now I for one will be impressed with whomever Denzel Washington endorses. Denzel I will follow you anywhere! LOL
America and Amber can be seen this week in Las Vegas campaigning for Clinton leading up to Saturdays Nevada caucus.
