I was going to post a photo from the interweb of Kid Rock and say something like… “Totally Senatorial material.” But the shots were mostly of the sort that I’m pretty sure I’d get banned from the forums. So, just browse this instead.

I would rather have him as my senator than the one that we got in the last election. :eek:

You don’t understand; he’s an economic genius because he made a bunch of money with garbage music celebrating crack use and requesting fellatio. By this logic, Kylie Jenner should be the next President of the United States.

LOL at the GOP as the party of conservative values. They’re just happily embracing their new role as the party of proudly braindead white identitarian politics.
 
They put stuff like this out there so the average joe can better relate to him, People like Kid Rock are on another level, they are entertainers and do not have normal lives, the average citizen can not relate to a lifestyle like that, fishing brings him down to their level.

I doubt he would be any better or any worse than any of the current senators we have, in reality he is a very successful entertainer with millions of dollars, the real kid rock is nothing remotely close to the depicted stereotypical character he plays for the camera.
 
Becoming a Senator involves connecting with voters on their level. Kid Rock seems to be doing a pretty good job of showing the voters of Michigan that he’s one of them. He’s not some ivory tower politician who can’t tell the difference between a chestnut horse and a horse chestnut. That’s step one to getting elected.

But hey, he’s representing the wants, needs and voice of “we the people”. Perhaps the best medicine for a culture infused, saturated and hung to dry coated in immorality deserves to have a leader cut from the same cloth…and see what that would be like…

… Oh wait, we already do. Funny how we’d wink and nod at the same sins someone in a suit fowls themselves in, but if it’s worn on the sleeve as a display for what depravity a human can be (openly admit ones depravity) , we wince and protest.

Can a “perfect person” ever be elevated to a governmental position? What does history tell us?

You’re right, we already do. And he’s flailing, stuck in the toilet in terms of his approval ratings, and generally acting like a buffoon. Turns out that electing someone who doesn’t know anything about government is not a great idea. Who knew?

Don’t misunderstand me. This isn’t about mannerisms generally. I’m not saying we shouldn’t elect people who enjoy “red state” stuff like Nascar and country music, or that our leaders have to be hyper-polished urban cosmopolitan snobs. My problem with it is that we’re prioritizing mannerisms/identity over actual competence and intelligence. I have the same critique when Democrats push a candidate simply because he/she is of a particular ethnic background.

I mention Kid Rock’s public image that glorifies white trash culture because I think it’s the height of hypocrisy for the GOP. If the Democrats nominated the rapper/actor Ice T, you don’t think the Republicans would have a field day pointing out all the ways in which his public persona promotes “gangsta culture”? But when it’s a white guy with long hair glorifying drug use and dropping out of high school, hey, he’s just showing us that he’s one of the people. :rolleyes:

Yes, he was colorful. I lived there for awhile and one never knew what he would say next.

Love your comment on a “perfect person”.

Bill and Hillary Clinton are only married once.

Some Republicans actually went through multiple divorces.

But the Clintons are dogged by laundry lists of dead people who suicided themselves with multiple gunshot wounds.

And Bill and Hillary are the subjects of “Clinton Cash” by Peter Schweizer … which some say doesn’t exist. [Uranium One.] While the brother of the former FBI director is the accountant/lawyer responsible for preparing the IRS forms for the Clinton Foundation.
 
Every time someone refers to Republicans as the “party of Lincoln” I just about die laughing.

You don’t remember when Lincoln bragged about “pissing on his high school diploma” or wrote the catchy song “Balls in Your Mouth”?
