Brandon to Judge Health Care Reform Ad for Obama

CNN - President Obama has enlisted the help of several Hollywood actors to judge a contest asking grassroots supporters to create a tv commercial promoting health care reform.

Brandon joins Will.I.Am (Black Eyed Peas), John Cho (Flash Forward), Kate Walsh (Private Practice), and others in conjunction with Democrats, Republicans, and volunteers.

"We know that compelling videos can touch people in a way that words alone simply cannot," Natalie Foster, OFA's new media director, said in an e-mail announcing the contest last week. "The messages that regular people put together will make a bigger difference than any false smears or slick ads the other side can dream up. And who knows — your creative, powerful, or touching video could help tip the balance in favor of health reform."

Campaigning for Obama in Iowa

Brandon will be campaigning for Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama this week at college campuses in Iowa as part of a "Vote Early for Change" rally.
