He doesn’t always get political, but when does he apparently prefers the Dems. Anyway here’s the story: > **[I Don't Always Endorse Presidential Candidates, But When I Do...](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/the-most-interesting-man-obama_n_1881292)** > > I Don't Always Endorse Presidential Candidates, But When I Do... > [@](#): > > But Jonathan Goldsmith, the actor who plays “the most interesting man,” appears more willing to get involved in party politics. He’ll be holding a fundraiser for President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign on Tuesday in Burlington, Vt. Tickets for the event range from $20 to $500. > > Goldsmith has a house in Vermont, and he’s been linked with the state’s Democrats before. Earlier this year, he met with Gov. Peter Shumlin (D). Guess it makes sense, seeing as how his small talk has altered foreign policy. I know that when he drinks beer, he prefers Dos Equis, but I wonder if they’ll be serving the White House beer at this thing. Stay thirsty my friends. ---

I’m having trouble picturing a beer guy endorsing Romney for some reason. I don’t always drink beer… actually, I don’t ever drink beer. But if I did, drink beer, it would be Dos Equis. Doesn’t have the right ring to it. 🙂 ---

Well, I hope he enjoyed his run as XX’s spokesman. With all the fallout from that pizza owner hugging Obama, I’m sure this will lead to more righty rage. ---

Forty years boycotting Coors. Don’t drink any _other_ beers, but I’m boycotting Coors. Sometimes political action requires sacrifice. This isn’t one of them. ---

Dammit! If this was within 500 miles of me I would totally be there! But Vermont is a bit farther than that… ---

Gilbert Gottfried and Victoria Jackson are on board with Romney. So, I guess, evens out… ---

Notice that the DNC had a microbrew owner speaking at the convention? And Obama is brewing beer at the White House. Pretty obvious jab at a Mormon. ---

> [@Rampant\_Coypu](#): > > Notice that the DNC had a microbrew owner speaking at the convention? And Obama is brewing beer at the White House. So, the Democrats are pro-beer? That’s enough to win my vote! Or, it would be if they hadn’t won it already. That reminds me, I need to get my hands on the White House beer recipe so I can try to clone it. ---

Further proof that Obama is planning on using Mexicans to inflate his vote count. He’s even got the Mexican beer guy supporting him! ---

[Here you go](http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2012/09/01/ale-chief-white-house-beer-recipe). I was a little disappointed that they’re all extract recipes, but I guess Obama’s got a little less free time than I do. ---
