Councilmember Bernard C. Parks Joins Senator Barack Obama for a Fundraiser at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion



On Tuesday, June 24, 2008 I joined Senator Barack Obama at his fundraiser at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion here in Los Angeles. This was his first visit to Southern California since being assured of the Democratic Presidential Nomination.

The event was attended by California Attorney General Jerry Brown, and Assembly Speaker Karen Bass, D- Los Angeles. Hollywood superstars such as Samuel L. Jackson, John Malkovich, Dennis Quaid, and Don Cheadle who introduced the Senator at the event were also in attendance. Supermodels Cindy Crawford and Heidi Klum were present to lend their support to the Senator as well.

This August I will be traveling to Denver, Colorado to attend the Democratic National Convention as an Obama Delegate. I am extremely excited to be a part of this historic occasion. I have been one of Senator Obama’s early supporters, and I’m looking forward to gearing up for Denver and then for November when we make him the next President of the United States!
