Tavis talked with Hillary about endorsements, keeping Bill quiet, and Obama.
I agree with Tavis that on election day it comes down to votes, not endorsements. But endorsements seem to be a good way to get your name heard in a positive way. I haven't heard Ted Kennedy's name in a while, but he's for Obama. I think if voters identify with a politician or a celebrity that endorses a presidential hopeful, then they could be swayed.
Tavis also pointed out that if Bill were to continue giving Obama a bad rap, that it could do more harm to Hillary's campaign than good.
They also talked about Obama's intentions to have a summit with middle east leaders as naive. Saying that the first year in presidency is not the time, and that it is too early to go into something like that.
All in all I like the way Hillary presented herself and I also liked what she had to say.http://www.pbs.org/kcet/tavissmiley/archive/200802/20080201.html?campaign=pbshomefeatures_1_tavissmileyinterviewbrsenatorhillaryclinton_2008-02-02

Votes are swayed by popular people who endorse the canidates. Celebreties have a huge impact on the vote but we should run be cautious when using the famous as a guide! They are rich but that's the only thing that they really have goin for them, their lives are in most cases horrific to say the least.
In the future, don't put the full url in the post, make it a link. If you aren't sure how to do this, stop by the office and I'll show you how.
