Earlier today, we brought you the story of Michael Ian Black and his dream of becoming the face of Taco Bell. Not only did he take to Twitter, but he also took to Youtube to solicit help from none other than President Barack Obama.

In the last hour, Taco Bell has made first contact.

@TacoBell
Hey @michaelianblack, I’m flattered… and intrigued. Tell me more! #mibfortacobell #mib4tb #tacobell

Now, just moments ago, Michael has returned to Youtube, once again to ask The President for help in sealing this gordita of a deal.

Also, don’t forget to sign the petition in support of MIBforTacoBell
