2016 Democratic Convention sitting with Bradley Cooper
So at the Convention in 2016, I was wandering around Hillary's box with my partner Hugh Rodham. It was a crowded and certainly exciting night as Hillary would be accepting her nomination. After chatting with the Castro brothers I took a seat next to a bearded fellow accompanied by a gorgeous model. We started to chat and both being Philly boys exchanged some local stories. He asked who I was and of course, I asked who he was. BRADLEY COOPER, still a local boy and we were talking about our high schools when a security type individual interrupted us. He wanted Mr. Cooper to move since he was sitting in Madeline Albright's preferred seat. We paid him no mind and he gave up after his third request. Secretary Albright sat one seat over and gave me a rather sour look. About 5 minutes later my cell phone had a raft of messages. Apparently, Fox and other tv channels had broadcast Bradly Cooper being at the convention with me sitting next to him. Everyone was calling me. Fox was complaining since Cooper had been in "American Sniper" that they assumed his politics followed that movie. Clips are still on Youtube. Being a Patriot is irrelevant to being in a political party. My Dad, who was in the front lines of World War 2 for 447 days and three uncles never had to proclaim who they would vote for. They fought so we could vote.
