BIDEN CAMPAIGN GAINS MAJOR MUSCLE.


Naturally, like every Democrat, I am thrilled the The Rock, is supporting Joe Biden and Kamala Harrris. For Wayne Johnson to make such brave move is admirable and patriotic, since it risks his popularity and box office. But I am somewhat bothered by an NBC comment today that Johnson is the third-most popular choice for president after Trump and Biden. I find it very disturbing that the American people favor celebrities to run their country. Trump, after all only was only able to steal the election because of his popular reality show, The Apprentice. In the past we have been presented with possibilities like George Clooney and Oprah Winfrey. And, of course, we have already had one movie star. I hope this trend doesn't increase and that we go back to depending on strategists and statesmen, on skilled politicians who have moved up through the ranks earning experience and expertise. In the meantime, let's be very grateful that one of America's strongest stars is pulling for us.
