Ah, the power of love (read: the power of beautiful women). Ever since Hollywood hunk George Clooney has gotten engaged to that scrumptious looking human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin, he is singing a different tune and planning to diversify his career. How? Well, news is that the actor intends to get into active politics.

Insiders say he, an avid Democrat, is trying to get an ‘official role’ in the party, and hopes to be a part of the Democratic Party’s 2016 election campaign. After all, George C is quite chummy with a person by the name of Barack Obama. According to a source, “Now that he has Amal by his side, it will give him more credibility to run for office.”

Amal by his side: what a side that is!
