As John McCain beats a retreat out of Michigan, the Barack Obama campaign is adding some star power to its efforts to carry the state in November.
Sean Astin, who starred in the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy, will kick off a canvass for the Obama campaign at 11 a.m. Saturday (Oct. 4, 2008) at the headquarters of the Livingston County Democratic Party and the Barack Obama Campaign for Change, 10321 E. Grand River, Suite 600 of the Fonda Office Park, in Brighton.
Besides playing the sidekick to Frodor, Sean Astin also starred in the title role of the film "Rudy," about a student at Notre Dame University who fulfilled a dream to play for the university's football team despite long odds. His other credits include "The Goonies" and "Memphis Belle."
People wishing to participate in the canvass should RSVP to Fahad Faruqi, field organizer for the Obama Campaign for Change, at ffaruqi@michiganforchange.com.
Let your younger friends know about this opportunity. This is a great chance to turn out even more canvassers for Obama!
