Kid Rock Eyed as Potential Senate Candidate

I know it's stupid and ridiculous, but he could win Michigan. His biggest problem is he can't be "Kid Rock" on the ballot.

 
While I admit that most celebrities are out of touch douches... have our lawyers and military personnel really done such a stellar job that musicians and TV personalities are any more "ridiculous" than they are?

Until mechanics, bakers, and librarians can afford to campaign, I'm okay with lawyers seeing some competition from our rags to riches musicians.

Public office is supposed to be for a cause and not a career. This is why the 2016 election is such a landmark and probably the greatest election of all time. You might not like Donald Trump or his policies but it is bigger then Donald Trump. It's so exciting that we are going to be seeing celebrities running for President while mechanics run for state and local office. Nonpoliticians are on a mission so they are more likelt ro carry out their promises than career politicians who always hold things off till the next election and nothing gets done. In the long run this will lead to a free America.

I think it's funny that the democrats are protesting him, but he's out there supporting BLM and getting Republicans to cheer universal healthcare and gay marriage.


"No justice, no pizza!"


Amid chants of “No more,” the Rev. Charles Williams II led a crowd of demonstrators Tuesday protesting Kid Rock’s opening act at the new Little Caesars Arena.

“We made sure that we sent a message,” he told the cheering throng.

Having led the crowd back to Grand Circus Park, where it had departed at about 5:30 p.m. for the arena, Williams, who heads the Michigan chapter of National Action Network that organized the protest, shouted: “One thing we ought to know, it’s not over. We are one Detroit and we will not stand for the divisive, hateful language of Kid Rock in our city. We don’t want to listen.”

The crowd, also chanting “No justice, no pizza” in reference to the eponymous pizza empire, grew to about 400 people in a walk from the park to protest Kid Rock’s appearance at the taxpayer-funded arena’s grand opening and his use in the past of the Confederate flag on stage.

I thought he said in that rant that you DIDN'T need to remind him the Black Lives Matter and that he didn't mind contributing to healthcare because he was rich but "we" shouldn't be forced to pay.

Guess I need to listen again

That is what he said.

No, not that, but just communicating to voters in a way that a candidate should.

WAY too early for that. Kid Rock has universal name recognition and should wait until the very last moment before declaring himself a candidate. He is playing this absolutely the way that he should.

For what it's worth:

"It seems the government wants to give us all health insurance and wants us all to pay, and to be really frank, I really don't have a problem with that, because God has blessed me and made my pockets fat."
 
It is LITERALLY straight out of idiocracy.... his 'speech' at the concert was hilarious. Sad thing is, Murica (TM) would vote for him and he would win....

And to be very frank, I really don't have a problem with that, since God has blessed me and made my pockets fat. But redistribution of wealth seems more like their plan. And I don't believe you should save, sacrifice, do things by the book and then have to take care of some deadbeat, milking the system, lazy a-- motherf---ing man.

It really was. Kinda makes me like him though. The guy ain't a dumbass, like most politicians. In the meantime he is racking up $ale$. Lol. I don't think he is serious. I think the left can protest too much that his ego might cause him to go forward though.

Not among average voters he doesn't. You have to remember the average voting age is somewhere around 70 years old. And they aren't going to vote for someone who acts like and looks like he does.

He needs a haircut, more professional attire, a serious attitude, and less profane language. If he does that, then yes, he can absolutely win (and part of me hopes he does).
