Check out his campaign donations:

From the archives of the Charleston (WV) Gazette:

Charleston's sweetheart, movie star Jennifer Garner, and her actor husband, Ben Affleck, are campaigning hard for Barack Obama for president. They both gave speeches at a Miami fundraiser for the Democratic nominee. Garner - the 2007 West Virginian of the Year - was "very witty, clever and funny," according to People magazine. Affleck told the crowd: "All of us are here because we just want Barack. We believe in what he wants to do: ending the war in Iraq, universal health care." He called Obama "extraordinary ... a genuine, real force." The couple also hosted their own Obama fundraiser in Affleck's hometown of Boston - and they supported him at the Democratic National Convention in Denver.


... and I believe Affleck has also appeared in MoveOn ads for Obama.
