The Politics of Discretion
Some people seem unhappy and incredulous that two U.S. citizens might consider that their vote is a private matter in spite of -- or maybe because of -- their celebrity. Given the hugely vulnerable mindsets of many voters concerning ads and the opinions of famous people, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are showing an admirable restraint -- at least in the meanwhile -- and rolling up their respectives sleeves and DOING things to help people in need instead of trying to use their influence as HOLLYWOOD STARS to skew results in the political sphere.
