Alec Baldwin Wants To Run For Office (Video)

Alec Baldwin has long been known for his political activism, but now he might finally be ready to run for office himself.

In an interview scheduled to air on tonight’s episode of ‘Parker Spitzer,’ the ’30 Rock’ star said running for office is “something that I’m very, very interested in.”

While Baldwin stressed that he didn’t want to be viewed as anti-elitist, he said, “People want to believe that someone who deeply cares about the middle class … would like to seek public office. … We need people who … really have not lost sight of what the middle class in this country needs.”

Although he’s been a world-famous actor for many years, Baldwin said he’s still in touch with his roots. “Whatever I’ve accrued in my career, it hasn’t changed me as a person.”

And don’t think giving up acting is a decision he’s taking lightly. “To leave what I’m doing now would be extremely painful,” he told former New York governor Eliot Spitzer. “I’ve grown to really love where I am now in my business and to quit now, when it really feels good and doing it feels good, would be an enormously difficult thing to do.”
