If Kumar's for him, I'm for him: A Vey Special Endorsement for Obama
http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/02/12/opinion/edbeam.php

"Once I learned that Kal Penn was campaigning for Barack Obama, that sealed the deal.

You know who Kal Penn is, right? He played frat boy/stoner Taj Mahal Badalandabad in the movie "Van Wilder 2: The Rise of Taj" and cheetah-riding stoner Kumar in "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle," perhaps the best movie ever made.

So, if Kumar is for Obama, I'm for Obama!"

Although it doesn't come without its problems:

"Sample attack ad:

"Who's for Obama?" the script will read. "He has been endorsed by Senator Ted Kennedy, by the dope-smoking guy from 'Harold & Kumar,' and by the Guantánamo detainees' lawyers who want to free terrorists so they can bomb our shopping malls."

Still, I like where this is going.
