Washington, Aug 4 (ANI): Hollywood stars Ben Affleck and Matt Damon and their pregnant wives turned up at a Miami fundraiser for presumptive Democratic presidential candidate Barrack Obama on Saturday.
Both the couples attended the orientation at club Set to pledge their support for Obama.
According to reports, the actors also delivered speeches from the stage.
Jennifer Garner gave the first speech supporting Obama, and she was very witty, clever and funny, Peoples Magazine quoted a source as saying.
She was followed by her husband Ben, then Matt Damon. The men gave serious political speeches on how the country needs change, the source said.
Best of friends, Damon and Affleck made it pretty evident that they are supporting Obama over McCain, as he is a deserving candidate and a man of principles, who would head the country towards righteousness.
For a lot of reasons, but mostly because I dont like the path this countrys on and if McCain is elected well be continuing down that same path, Damon said, when asked as to why he was supporting Obama.
The stars seemed to be in jolly good moods, and were friendly to all the guests.
Later, the stars left in a Limo to attend a party at Anthony Kennedy Shrivers Miami Beach home. (ANI)
Regardless of what you think of their politics, it’s silly to contend that Matt Damon and Ben Affleck are talentless. I don’t have any problem separating actors I enjoy watching from their politics.
Also, not only did Ben Affleck direct “Gone, Baby Gone,” he wrote the screenplay as well.
And for you Jason Bourne fans, the fourth installment (still untitled at this time) is slated for release in 2010. Paul Greengrass returns as director.
And in other shocking news: The sun came up this morning.
But Ben Affleck should be listened to because he had an affair with Jimmy Kimmel: Jimmy Kimmel, "I'm f...ing (read without the ellipses) Ben Affleck

LOL! Great post! I love it...
Lisa: Yeah, I warned you about that.
Blah, blah, blah. You're supporting him because he's a democrat.
Hi, we work in a fantasy world, so we are qualified to endorse a candidate for the most important job in the world.
I thought the Sarah Silverman skit “I’m F’ing Matt Damon” was good, but the Affleck one is even better.
Is it true that Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, once went on a double date with Larry Sinclair and Obama? haha
ThaiIndian News? Is this from Thailand?
LMAO!!
I know people who have met Ben Affleck in the course of political events. He is described as nice, not too bright and lives for experiencing the perks of celebrity.
I think Jack Bauer could kick Jason Bourne’s ass.
Hmmm...maybe...but it’d be close. :0)
And then Walker, Texas Ranger would take on the winner.

In Confucian China actors were considered so low that there were no actresses.
