Celebrity endorsements in the 2012 presidential campaign

Steven Spielberg 

The director was one of President Obama's earliest supporters, co-hosting a fundraiser for him at the dawn of the campaign in February 2007. He later endorsed Hillary Clinton in the primary, but came back to the Obama fold once it was over, bringing his directing talents to a video for Obama's nomination at the Democratic National Convention. Spielberg is keeping up the support during the 2012 campaign, donating the maximum to Obama’s reelection effort.
