Obama has finished his fundraising tour, not by collecting more money, but in wowing a set of impressionable young actors and actresses who, incidentally, tweeted about it to their millions of fans. The early morning breakfast at the Beverly Hilton included two dozen young, attractive, popular stars, fitting figures, it seems, to help push Obama to getting reelected this year, since his last election had a huge push from the younger generation. Present were Avengers star Jeremy Renner, Glee actress Dianna Agron, Star Trek’s Zachary Quinto, Sutland’s Ben McKenzie, Jessica Alba, Bryan Greenberg, Adam Rodriquez, Zach Braff, Brandon Routh, Ian Somerhalder, Jared Leto, Kal Penn, and Sophia Bush.
The effort is part of a strategy called “Young America Effort.” After being impressed by the attention from the leader of the nation, they went on to text their eager fans.
Agron: “Maybe the only man I truly get nervous around. Worth the early wake up call.”

Greenberg: “Truly inspiration talking with @BarackObama today”

Alba: “Got up bright & early to hear @BarackObama speak w an awesome group”
Somerhalder: “Totally surreal morning. Met up with some friends, had coffee with President Obama now tweeting. The 21st century… Let’s do this.” Followed by, “Just spend my morning w/this man talkn green energy, a better America&being a young American-wow.”
The medium of course bars the in-depth political issues the stars were contemplating after the event, but it did perhaps inspire countless fans to get with the cool candidate for this year’s election.

Law firms of all sizes are being much more selective about who makes equity partner. Gone are the days where doing good work and putting in your time is enough to get you to a profit sharing level. Today, equity partners almost always have to prove that they can contribute their share to the firm. So what does this mean for associates and how can a two-tiered partnership track be beneficial? With a two-tiered partnership structure, associates get more time to prove themselves and also more time to determine whether partnership is the right goal for them.

Got up early…..what 8am. For us real people we are already at work by then….if we have a job. Meanwhile Obama is hanging with people who don’t live in a real world. Make a million from on movie or tv show, vacation in some foreign country….would not want to spend our money in the US. Meanwhile their peers look for real jobs while our president attempts to be a celebrity rather than a statesman. What a country….what a leader.
