Michelle Obama Launches Voter Registration Push With Tom Hanks, Lin Manuel Miranda

The former First Lady stars in a "non-partisan" video urging citizens to vote in November.

Michelle Obama is taking a starring role in a new "non-partisan" campaign to encourage Americans to register to vote and make sure they cast a ballot in November.

The Hill reports that Obama is joining forces with a cast of celebrities — all of whom happen to be Democratic donors and activists — "in a public service announcement to promote a get-out-the-vote push."

The video stars Tom Hanks, Lin Manuel Miranda (of "Hamilton" fame), Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Janele Monae alongside the former First Lady. Obama "places calls" to her celebrity friends to remind them that the presidential election isn't the only election that matters.

But the republicans need to be drumming up support at the ground level. Getting people to switch parties and to register to counter the enemy, I mean the damnocrats.

Now I have to wish for Tom Hanks to go to hell, and never watch his movies anymore. If he wants to be political, so will I.
