Barack Obama Is Not Only Oprah Winfrey's Pick...Obama Is Hollywood's!
http://www.postchronicle.com/news/original/article_21294152.shtml

Presidential hopeful Barack Obama is not only Oprah Winfrey's pick...it appears that Obama is also Hollywood's pick!

The Illinois senator and Democratic candidate for president was the guest of honor at Time Warner's Conversations on the Circle, "a semi-regular event where notable types are grilled in front of a mostly sympathetic crowd," reports FOX's Roger Friedman.

Dick Parsons of Time Warner spoke to a crowd of approximately 250, which included Harry Belafonte, Jon Bon Jovi, Edie Falco, Mariska Hargitay, Joy Behar, Steve Buscemi, Pink Floyd's Roger Waters, Foreigner's Mick Jones, actor Geoffrey Wright, "Capote" screenwriter Bennett Miller, Darrell Hammond and Damon Dash, reports Monsters & Critics.

4. And your point is. . . ?
I don't really care one way or the other who "Hollywood" picks (which is either a sign on a hill or a community on a map, take your pick). Your post only gives me the chance to note Hollywood glamour, which I do here:
