I had about 15 minutes of fun a little while ago on the www.fundrace.org website. There you can look up donations given by either typing in names or zip codes. I typed in a some names of famous people out of curiousity and found out a few interesting things (also I don't know when the figures where last updated) :

Meg Ryan (actress)-- $2000. --> Wes Clark

Ben Harper (musician) -- $2000 --> Wes Clark

Laura Dern (actress, Harper's wife)--$1000--> Wes Clark -- Both Harper and Dern were both frmer Nader supporters

Robert Deniro- $2000--> Dean, $2000.--> Clark, $2000. --> Kerry

Janine Garofolo (actress) $2000. --> Howard Dean, then later $250. --> Dean (using a diff. address, she went over her max)

Ed Koch- frmer mayor of NYC-- $1200-->gephardt

David Dinkins and Charlie Rangel -- no donations

Another person named Wesley Clark living in Brooklyn--- $750. to ...you guessed it: Wesley Clark!

Sen. John Edwards--> 2000. --> John Edwards (incidently the only one of all candidates to donate directly to his own campaign!)
