Buffett and President Obama in the Oval Office, July 14, 2010
In addition to political contributions over the years, Buffett endorsed and made campaign contributions to Barack Obama's presidential campaign. On July 2, 2008, Buffett attended a $28,500 per plate fundraiser for Obama's campaign in Chicago.[114]
Buffett intimated that John McCain's views on social justice were so far from his own that McCain would need a "lobotomy" for Buffett to change his endorsement.
[115] During the second 2008 U.S. presidential debate, McCain and Obama, after being asked first by presidential debate mediator Tom Brokaw, both mentioned Buffett as a possible future Secretary of the Treasury.[116]
Later, in the third and final presidential debate, Obama mentioned Buffett as a potential economic advisor.[117] Buffett was also finance advisor to California Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger during his 2003 election campaign.[118]
