Will movie stars put Kamala in the Oval Office?
My father told me that those who work in Hollywood are America’s aristocrats. Everyone else is a civilian. It was a concept that said less about how the world perceived my father than about how he perceived himself. After all, he had been nominated twice for Academy Awards. He knew Elizabeth Taylor and Frank Sinatra. Did such things not qualify him to be, in the words of the great Romantic poet Percy Shelley, an unacknowledged legislator of the world?
