It’s not every public meeting that you see Samuel L. Jackson paying tribute to a presidential candidate’s favorite swear word (it starts with M) and then a live concert with Springsteen. But that’s how it was when Kamala Harris and former President Barack Obama met voters in Atlanta, Georgia. Like the many before him, the guest of honor with guitar and harmonica had a warning to the people. Many were carried away by the music during the public meeting in Georgia.

That’s why I’m giving my vote to Kamala Harris and Tim Walz on November 5. Harris and Obama campaign separately, often in two different states. Thursday was the first time they held a public meeting together. – Our vote is our power. And it is with our power that we win, said Samuel L. Jackson.

Harris often plays the Beyoncé song Freedom at events. This summer, many wondered if the singer would appear at the Democrats’ national convention. So far, Beyoncé has not been present at Harris’ campaign meeting. But many expect that she will appear. Photo: Mario Anzuoni / Reuters That time she did not show up. But on Friday she is on the list of speakers, together with her mother Tina Knowles and the country musician Willie Nelson. Also when Hillary Clinton was a presidential candidate in 2016, Beyoncé performed. Then she was there with her husband Jay-Z. Clinton lost that election, to Donald Trump. Trump becomes a podcast Trump gets help from, among others, billionaire Elon Musk, Kid Rock and Kanye West. While he does not want to appear on several presidential debates, he seeks out other platforms that have very large audiences. Later on Friday, he will be interviewed by the biggest podcast producer in the USA: Joe Rogan. The Joe Rogan Experience is the most popular podcast in the US. It is also in tenth place in Norway on Spotify. Photo: MANDEL NGAN / AFP The Republican presidential candidate describes Rogan as a “decent guy” with whom he expects to have a “very interesting” conversation. – I am on many programmes, he told the Fox News radio station on Wednesday. – Good, bad or neither. I take part in many programs and they end up being good. Not always a success Even if they are treated as important playing pieces in the election campaign, well-known names have not always had the effect the campaigns want. Shortly after Taylor Swift backed the Democrats, only 9 percent answered a poll by Quinnipiac University that they became more enthusiastic about Harris. More, 13 percent, answered that Swift’s support made them less enthusiastic. Harris (f) and Obama (h) together on stage for the first time this election campaign.

They got the crowd with them on the battle cry of Obama’s election campaign in 2008, “yes we can”. But while Harris spoke at the podium, several supporters began to leave the venue, according to The New York Times. Published 25/10/2024, at 07.59 Updated 25.10.2024, at 08.11
