(CLICK ON IMAGE TO ENLARGE)
The Democratic convention is done and this Monday the Republican week begins and we want to know what's important...Let's get the celebrity endorsements! Oprah, DiCaprio, and Ben Affleck for Obama and Sly Stallone, Clint Eastwood and Arnold Schwarzenegger are for military veteran John McCain. Even Latino stars are getting in the action Don Omar for Obama and El Cangri for McCain, Jessica Alba for Obama and Erik Estrada for McCain. What is really the purpose for celebrities to get involved in politics? Does this hurt a celebrities' fan base? Whatever the case, we see celebrity endorsements as a way to feel knowledgeable of current issues and of course to get free publicity. While many celebrities are enjoying summers in St. Tropez, flying around in private planes, and hanging out in ridiculous huge trailers on movie sets, we'll see more celebrity endorsements for politicians and green initiatives.
