Roots cleared vet.

Only one on the list below flagged by vetting is Ne-Yo for $15k in unpaid
taxes.

I'm copying in Podesta to weigh in because getting a cool band was his
idea.

Could you please put together a list of folks who are available and have
expressed interest in helping?  Per our latest guidance last night we are
looking for some options “somewhere between a high school band and Lady
Gaga”

Julianne Moore wants to help and is in NY.  She might be good for launch
pre-program.

Also Dennis may have mentioned Jesse Taylor Ferguson.   Lena Dunham will do
whatever, thought bit more edgy.  Various others based in NY can reach out
to if have folks in mind like a Sarah Jessica Parker, Meryl Streep, Morgan
Freeman --  or maybe we go Amy Poehler or Tina Fey.

Thinking not to speech but to introduce performers, add little pizzazz.
  Just some thoughts….
