HAHAHAH - exactly!

OK, he was in "Space Cowboys" with Clint Eastwood, Tommy Lee Jones, David Sutherland. But really - he's kinda no bog deal.

He does commercials for Rosland Captal, one of those places that sell gold.

He's a pretty well known actor. Played JFK in one movie. Made for TV, I think.

He looks like an old Ben Stiller, and that ain't good.

Did you see The Dark Knight Rises?   I haven't seen it, but apparently he played the President in it.

I know him best from Knots Landing which I watched occasionally back when it was an ongoing series, and more recently the movie Payback with Mel Gibson.  He was creepily funny as a crime syndicate underboss.

As far as commercials with him, I've never seen one or at least I don't recall seeing any.

I've seen him in a million things before, but I can't think of any commercials. I've never even heard of 'Rosland Capital' until just now.

Several people here already did.

I remember that when he portrayed JFK, thinking that he looked more like RFK.
