*Actor Jon Voight may be campaigning for Republican presidential nominee John McCain, but his famous daughter, Angelina Jolie, may be leaning toward Democratic candidate Barack Obama.
She hasn't offered either senator an official endorsement, but the mother of six – including adopted children from Cambodia, Ethiopia and Vietnam – says Obama comes down on the same side of several issues that she does.
When asked if she found Obama's bi-racial background an example to her family, she replied: "Naturally that's good, but it's not a sufficient reason to vote for him.
"Obama fights for international justice, he wants to militarily intervene in cases of genocide, and close Guantanamo Bay. These are the things that could move me to vote for him, not his roots."
She then adds, "Naturally, an American president like Barack Obama would be nice for my family."
