Actors Shawn and Marlon Wayans will be visiting North Carolina colleges this weekend on behalf of Barack Obama.

Their mission - to get students registered to vote.

Obama's campaign announced today that the Wayans brothers will be part of a larger effort to get people registered by North Carolina's April 11 deadline.

The actors are scheduled to visit N.C. State, N.C. Central, UNC-Chapel Hill, Duke, N.C. A&T, UNC-Greensboro, Winston-Salem State and Wake Forest.

I was wondering whether it were an April Fool's joke, too, because I think it would be a hell of a thrill to see the Wayans Brothers -- or even just ONE of 'em, here. They're wonderful, hilarious, smart and energizing. If they're really going to show up to stump for Obama, HELL, we all benefit.

I would NOT miss the chance to see these guys.

Hope it won't no April Fool joke~

Seriously, they can't find anyone a little bit more prominent than the Wayans brothers?

Which incarnation of Wayan will this be? Mary-Kate or Ashley?

They can't make it down to Fayetteville State?! I see how it is, Wayans...
