CURRENT ASK DAPHNE

Question #1:

Daphne, I have reviewed your films and enjoy them a lot. My question is what brought you and attracted you to supporting Senator Clinton over Senator Obama in the 2008 presidential primaries?

Chris Myers


You know Chris, I had just had it with how the previous administration had not only done unjustifiable damage to the environment, and our financial system, and the middle class, and education, I could go on but don't want to, but I really loved the idea of a smart woman as President of the United States. Women in our society are treated horribly, starting with our girls, and I still believe that the more women making the rules the better for all of us.

Daphne


Question #2:

Daphne, Do you consider yourself a spiritual person? I have read that you are into chanting but do you also follow a holistic lifestyle? I love all that you're an environmental advocate!

Judy


Dear Judy,

If you look at another answer I gave, you'll see my upbringing a little. I have looked into a lot of 'spiritual' practices, and even started a documentary on the topic of people's different practices. I try to honor my "whole" being, light and dark sides, so that would be living holistically I think. I like to meditate and I like to go to a nightclub and drink margaritas sometimes. I quit smoking, but not diet cokes...so you get the idea...
