Samuel L. Jackson will be bringing his own unique brand of profane social commentary to the Obama campaign, starring in a ad that will tell voters to “Wake the f–k up, Vote for Obama!”
The ad will be based off his video that became a youtube sensation in which he is reading Adam Mansbach’s bestselling book, “Go the F*ck to Sleep,” a profane nursery rhyme that became popular particularly among the parents of young children. (Listen to Sam reading the book in the clip below. Do NOT listen with your young children around, or if your boss is lurking.)
Jackson’s intro of the book is about as funny as his reading. He says in the beginning that in his experience, reading stories to put kids to sleep just doesn’t work. Jackson said he used to say “go the f*** to sleep” to his own daughter growing up.
