Celebrity endorsements in the 2012 presidential campaign

Sarah Jessica Parker 

The “Sex and the City” star co-hosted a Democratic Party fundraiser with Michelle Obama in October 2010 and described the first lady as “a role model, an inspiration” who “doesn’t need a pair of heels to stand tall.” This year, she joined President Obama in Washington for the annual Human Rights Campaign dinner. Parker supported Obama in 2008. In the October before that election, she stopped by his New York City headquarters to join volunteers in making calls to undecided voters.
