Take Two looks at the week in news, including President Obama coming out to LA to discuss the economy and millennials, and celebrities like Lil John in the new Rock the Vote campaign.

President Obama comes to LA to talk about the economy and to hang with millennials. Why?

Maybe because some of his former allies, like Leon Panetta, are taking pot shots at him.

And Lil John, Lena Dunham and Whoopi Goldberg TURN OUT FOR WHAT?!!

To rock the vote.
