02 Mar 2010 By Priya Baboota (Web correspondent)
Ron Howard directed a Presidential Reunion web video summit for FunnyOrDie.com recently which has Jim Carrey in it playing the "big-balled" Ronald Reagan. This is a really funny sketch which shows past presidents of America for one reunion to promote a message of consumer protection.
Other actors playing in this video clip from Saturday Night Live are Fred Armisen and Maya Rudolph as Barack and the first lady, Will Ferrell’s Bush, Darrell Hammond’s Clinton, Dana Carvey as Presidents Bush Sr, Chevy Chase as Ford and Dan Akroyd as Carter.
Jim Carrey is a surprise package in this short clip in the form of Ronald Reagan, since the real SNL Reagan was played by the late, great Phil Hartman.
