The question is really “why wouldn’t you vote for Don?” Besides being Oscar nominated for Hotel Rwanda and kicking ass alongside Iron Man, Cheadle is a U.N. Environmental Program ambassador. He travels the world raising awareness for climate change, and has lent his hosting talents to Showtime’s climate change series, Years of Living Dangerously. If you still have doubts, just rewatch the clip above.
