LeBron James has donated US$20,000 to the presidential campaign of a certain Barack Obama. The importance of this apparent endorsement should not be discounted. In 2004, it was Ohio which gifted the world with four more years of George W. Bush, and it remains as a key battleground state in this year's U.S. presidential elections. Not only does LeBron play for Ohio's most popular pro basketball team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, he was also born and raised in Akron, Ohio, where he is building a 35,440 square foot home with its own theater, bowling alley, casino and barber shop.
Maybe Obama can clinch Ohio for sure if he can get LeBron to commit to stay with the Cavs and disavow plans to jump over to the New Jersey Brooklyn Nets after 2010.
