The smooth-voiced actor, known for portraying rugged characters, left social media divided with a new ad endorsing Biden.
A video featuring the voice of Sam Elliott premiered Tuesday night during the first game of the Major League Baseball World Series. However, this wasn’t a commercial for his latest movie playing a cowboy or similarly-minded, hard-living outlaw. Over piano accompaniment of the “Star Spangled Banner,” the baritone-voiced actor known for films like A Star is Born, The Big Lebowski,and Road House calmly and resolutely speaks of America while endorsing Joe Biden for president. Comments on Twitter erupted before the game even concluded. “There is only one America,” Elliott says in his trademark drawl during the ad. “Just this great land and all that’s possible on it with a fresh start.” “There is so much we can do if we choose to take on problems and not each other, and choose a president who brings out our best,” he continues. “Joe Biden doesn’t need everyone in this country to always agree, just to agree that we all love this country.
