Hollywood was recently invited to speak at the Democratic National Convention in Denver on behalf of victim's rights... On Saturday he met with Senator Barack Obama in Harrisburg and on Sunday he had a closed door meeting with Senator Ted Kennedy and Senator Bob Casey in which they discussed his efforts to date and how they could possibly help in getting his message out on a larger scale with regards to victim's rights.
