Dec 2012

Actor Kal Penn has a suggestion for who should take late Sen. Daniel Inouye’s seat.

“Imagine having a young Senator who gets it?” he tweeted on Wednesday. “My homie @TulsiGabbard, combat vet, 32, could be nominated!”

The “Harold and Kumar” star – who worked in the Obama White House and on the president’s reelection campaign – included a link to a petition in favor of Gabbard.

Hawaii Rep.-elect Gabbard announced her intention to seek the vancat seat earlier this week.
