I know we posted it on an open thread, but I wanted to highlight it again. Ron Howard just made an incredible video with Henry Winkler (Fonzy) and Andy Grifith. He says he's never been an ideologue but thought it was time to make a statement about this election.

Howard: I'm Rom Howard and I want to take a break fron directing and do something I've never done before. And that's talk about this election we got coming up. This is really an important one America. Because the last eight years this country has been going down a devisive and wrong haded path. That's whay it's so crucial that we vote for change. And I'm talking about real change, the kind of change that will allow us to trust our government which is why I've chosen to vote for Barack Obama. And I say that not as a Democrat or a Republican because I have voted for candidates from both parties in the past and I probably will again.

Grifith: Well Op, people are funny. Sometimes change scares them. They'd rather keep doing the same old things that's been keep messing them up then change to the thing that can help them.

Now that's how you do it folks.

Can you help us out?
