Did check-- Tom Hanks is a Democrat--

Cannot really get an answer with John Travolta.
I would though be more interested in what some celebrity's politics were than some Ivy League Philosophy, Law, or Literature professor's opinion on politics. Some celebrities are out in the world meeting a wide range of people with many different opinions. They could have some insight on what a politician like Barack Obama, William Clinton, or Mitt Romney is really like as well.
Do not also forget Ronald Reagan. Probably would be considered a B level actor, A level radio commentator, and quite a celebrity.

I also would argue that Oprah's endorsement of Barack Obama pretty much made Obama into a huge political force in the US.
