This one, by Pete Wentz, is so terrible it cracked me up for 15 minutes.
This video is so overplayed, even your grandmother has seen it.
Oy gevalt, you have to give this woman credit. Sarah Silverman is an equal opportunity offender. Nothing is off-limits, nothing is sacred, not even little old bubbe down in Florida. So what if granny accidentally voted for Pat Buchanan in 2000? If you haven’t seen this video yet, it’s because you’re either living under a rock or you have no Jewish friends. Regardless, I think this one is the most original and innovative of the lot, partly because she actually manages to make voting funny and partly because I just returned from Florida, where I spent an entire evening arguing politics with my own Jewish grandparents.

@ Pheonixrising08, thanks for posting that link. Gosh, if I had included all the celeb videos endorsing a specific candidate as opposed to just the voter reg ones, you're right - this article would have gone on forever. Great find!
Totally! You know, I wasn't going to vote until I was sarcastically persuaded, cajoled, insulted and band wagoned into it!Ahh, celebrities...I'm glad they're thinking for us. I wish they gave more unsolicited advice.
Great job compiling this stuff- can't wait to see what you come up with next week!
