Matt Damon “Terrified” Sarah Palin will become President!

Matt Damon is yet another Hollywood star using his fame to voice concerns over this year’s presidential election.

The actor sat down for an interview where he showed a more serious side of himself – and his skepticism towards Sarah Palin becoming Vice President of the United States.

“I think that there’s a really good chance that Sarah Palin could be President umm...and I think that’s the really scary thing, because I don’t know anything about her,” he begins.

“I know that she was the mayor of a really really small town and she’s Governor of Alaska for less than 2 years, I just don’t understand...I think the pick was made for political purposes but in terms of governance is a disaster.

Matt then goes on to state that there’s a one in three chance that McCain (if elected president) wouldn’t survive his first term.

Damon, 37, compares Palin’s potential presidency to a really bad Disney movie:

“You know the hockey mom, ‘I’m just a hockey mom from Alaska’ and she’s the President and it’s like she’s facing down Vladimir Putin and using the folksy stuff she learned at the hockey rink, you know, it’s absurd.

"I don’t understand why more aren’t talking about how absurd it is. It’s a really terrifying possibility.”

There’s more of Matt’s opinion found in the YouTube video below, so take a look and let us know what you think.

Are Matt’s views justified?

Matt Damon is very cool with lots of  fans. I like the way he presents himself in interviews. He will thank the stunt men that help make the action movies he is in a success.

Matt Damon and Moby both support Obama/Biden. Notice that the artists were one of the first to support Obama. Artist voices count too. This is a Democracy. Now Schmidt and Rove what to take out our artists this election year.

Here a cool video of Matt Damon and Moby ...

Its a great move with a great sound track. Obama has over 70 real life retired Generals supporting him, which gives the artists the freedom to create art like this.

Matt Damon needs to chill. Sarah is awesome. Matt, you say you don't know anything about Governor Palin, yet you seem to know quite a bit. Which is it?
