The rock star came to have lunch and share ideas with David
Axelrod, a senior adviser to President Barack Obama. Bon Jovi and
Axelrod discussed the president's efforts to encourage community
service, an area of interest that the musician shares and promotes

Bon Jovi helped out Obama during the presidential campaign. Last
September, Bon Jovi and his wife hosted more than 100 people for
dinner on their mansion lawn in New Jersey to raise money for Obama
and the Democratic National Committee. Obama was at the event and
spoke briefly.
