Ron Howard's Call For Obama With Andy Griffith And Henry Winkler

Ron Howard is the latest star to voice his support for Obama, and he did it alongside his old costars Andy Griffith and Henry Winkler in a video for Funny or Die. Watch him strip down, trim his nose hair and don an Opie wig for a black and white call to action before fast-forwarding to "Happy Days."

Heh! I liked this ad.......we need more of these ads We DON'T SEE ON MSM.

Excellent! If even Matlock is voting for Barack Obama, then the election is definitely decided.

Terrific TV ad. I was surprised to see Andy Griffith in it though supporting Obama. I thought he was a republican. Even if he is though, he's not alone in supporting Obama. Howard should keep the toupe. He looks 20 years younger.

Andy Griffith is a lifelong Democrat.

(unless of course Stephen Colbert has recently edited that article...).

it would have been worth spending the money to put that on tv nationaly, or at least in battleground states

I'm sure Ron Howard considered it. I suppose he knows the power of viral video and felt that was enough.

Brilliant! Awesome! Amazing!

the term "Jump the Shark" originated from the last season of Happy Days

What could more describe the current ReThug Party and EvangelicalMovement:

They are so over the top ridiculous it is impossible for anyone sane and intelligent to stay onboard

They have Jumped the Shark

This is hilarious! I sent this to my mother because she still watches Andy Griffith re-runs.

"If you stay healthy and strong, avoid any felonies, and stay away from the butterfly ballot, I bet you'll get a chance"

LMAO

BTW, where is Andy Griffith living these days? I seem to recall it's somewhere in North Carolina (but not in his birthplace - Mt. Airy).

Manteo, NC

Great idea badfluffy - let's get Griffith to do Matlock for Florida!

Loved this video! To me, by showing how ridiculous these actors would look if they had stayed mired in the past, it shows how utterly ridiculous WE look to the rest of the world.

Opie Cunningham!

Great ad! It should play on every tv channel.

Watch it you guys! Mayberry is better know as Mt. Airy here in NC, where people cling to their religion and guns, but of course, another Hollybama rich person endorses Obama-means more taxes for him, and I get the Obama tax rebate. I am going to use part of it to buy a box CD set of Andy Griffith shows! Come on Hollybama and Oprah! Bring it on! More money for me!!! Taking from the rich and giving to us poor! Go Opie for Ambassador to Iran!

[Floridagirl1972]

Luv it. Go Opie/Ritchie

[dididangerlove]

Very, very funny. I miss Arrested Development sooooo much.

Of course, I'm voting Obama.
