Matthew Broderick filmed a hilarious ad for barackobama.com telling viewers to vote and to be involved election day, volunteering if possible and even if it means taking the day off. He also borrows a couple lines from his iconic film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." Last week his wife Sarah Jessica Parker worked the phones for Obama.

I think we should make election day a holiday. Apparently we can't count on all employers to allow the employees to take all the time they need to vote.

Thanks Matthew. Thank your lovely wife too, for working the phones for Obama!

Election Day should be a national holiday....PLUS, EVERY state should have early voting!
There has to be a better way for the world's best Democracy to vote. This is just not right.

Obama/Biden '08 and '12!!

I Think we should combine Election Day with Internet Day.

Yow, Matthew's gained some weight from his "Ferris" days.....

Bueller.... Bueller.... Bueller... :)

He actually looks pretty fit.

Those cut faced actors normally don't age well but Matt looks really good. Normally he'd be bald, less tan more pink skinned and have 40 pounds of fat hanging off him. All afternoons of scaling neighbor fences and leaping over pools have helped I guess (Day Off Movie reference).

Loved the reference at the end "You're still here?! Go!"
Hilarious.

Maybe because it was a movie from my youth, but I could still watch Ferris Bueller repeatedly. It wasn't the greatest movie but it just sticks with me.

Anyway, cute clip. Definitely doing all I can to get the vote out for Barack Obama. EVen if you have already voted please help to get the vote out. Drive someone to the polls. Call or Text someone today about the importance of a Barack Obama presidency.

My 12-yr. old grandaughter claims this is the best movie ever made. I can't wholly disagree with her.

Our polls in New Jersey opened at 6:00am and I voted in less than 15 minutes!!! Awesome! It feels GREAT to be part of the process and part of a history making election!!! When the votes are tallied, this promises to be the highest voter turnout ever!

If you've already voted, stand in line for someone who can't wait all those hours.
