“I have had a great career and extraordinary opportunities, but I look at my political aspirations as that last piece of my life — where I hope to do something good for people and pay back a little.”
Grammer became interested in politics after watching the Republicans and Democrats create a mess over the country's budget. It was reported that he couldn't believe how the two parties couldn't come to an agreement and risked ruining our credit rating. Grammer said he would run as a republican. He was a huge supporter of Senator John McCain's 2008 campaign and is very conservative. The rumors are he may run for major of New York City. This should be interesting. I like him as an actor but I would need to know his views before he got my vote. Will he join the list of actors to politicians such as Ronald Regan, Sonny Bono, Arnold Schwarzenegger and George Bush? Yes I said George Bush. I know he wasn't an actor but he sure did a lot of comedic acting while serving his two terms. Let's see where all this goes.
