Not one to have his chromosomal thunder stolen, Forrest Gump has threatened to launch an endorsement arms race of retarded proportions. Run, Obama, Run:

“I’m Tom Hanks,” Tom Hanks says directly into the camera in what looks like someone’s den, “And I want Barack Obama to be the next president of our country. As an official celebrity, I know my endorsement has just made your mind up for you.”

An arms race that will eventually end with a hug race.

When faced with the daunting task of closing “The Gump Gap”, Sunday Morning Bill (Clinton) sought to mine this rich, frequently tapped vein of potential Democrat voters by spending it in church with failed NFL quarterback Heath Shuler.

That’s all I’ve got to say about that.

1. Who cares who Hanks has endorsed? Who have Alvin and the Chipmunks endorsed?

2. No, Brian. You need the Hershey’s bar that says 50% cacao. And again, Obama is not black. He is biracial.

3. Ah, balls. I always thought Hanks was one of the smart Hollywood-types. Guess I was mistaken.

4. Having just re-seen Big with the kids, I can tell you that this is a heartwarming, wholesome and fun-for-the-whole family endorsement!

   Two thumbs WAY UP!
