A push for Betty White to address the DNC

Actress Betty White is being called on by fans to speak at this week’s Democratic National Convention.

The 90-year-old star, who’s an Obama supporter, is not scheduled to appear, but there's a petition circulating online urging White to introduce the president on Thursday.

“Governor Romney can have Clint Eastwood and his improvisational skills because President Obama has the one and only Betty White!” the petition reads. It’s been signed by more than 2,500 people on Change.org.

White has even more fans asking for the speech on Facebook, where nearly 20,000 have “liked” the page titled “Bring Betty White to the DNC.”

No chance? Not necessarily... White responded to a similar social media push two years ago. In 2010, she hosted “Saturday Night Live” after a Facebook campaign encouraging the appearance went viral.
