Michelle Obama does pro-voting comedy skit

First lady Michelle Obama has promoted voting in all kinds of settings -- now including a comedy skit.

Obama's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's talk show last night featured a video built around the idea that Kimmel might forget to vote on Election Day.

"I have a plan for that, Jimmy," she told the host just before the video.

A morning bullhorn is involved.

"It's Election Day!" the first lady yells at a sleeping Kimmel. "Up and at 'em!"

Obama struck a bipartisan note in her appeal for viewers to vote.

"No matter who you're voting for -- vote," she said. "That's the point."
