Wonder why Chloe Grace Moretz is at the DNC?

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/07/25/chloe-grace-moretz-the-scott-baio-of-hillary-clinton-s-dnc.html

She's what? A pretty blonde in her early 20s? Who knows? Who cares? Why is she there? Must be a feminism-thing. We all know that feminism is the only political issue that white women are good for.



Miss Moretz is member of the Helena-Foundation, a vanity-project of some spoiled rich brat who wants to play leader. But the point is: It's an organization with humanitarian goals. She has humanitarian goals.

Here's my bet:
Miss Moretz won't speak about feminism. She will speak to young people about political activism, about getting out there and trying to help, about trying to change something for the better.
Who at the RNC spoke to young people? Who spoke to the next generation of voters?
At the DNC, Miss Moretz will speak to the very same young people who will just start caring about politics this election or the next.



She wasn't selected as a speaker because she's a woman. She was selected because she resonates with the next generation of democratic voters.

is that the author is Team Kimye and doesn't like Chloe because she's Team Swift.

Which makes her just as vapid as she claims Chloe is.
