Last I checked, celebrities are not the most educated of individuals (unless an extensive knowledge of hard drugs and alcohol magically gives you that distinction), and they definitely don't know what it is like to raise a family on an average American salary. So, who are they to tell me who to vote for?
Don't get me wrong, I have just as many Kanye West songs downloaded as the next guy (edited, of course), but does wearing pink shirts and excessive use of the F word really make someone a suitable political endorsement? I think not.
If anything having the majority of celebrity endorsements is a sure reason not to vote for a particular candidate. The last thing we need is for Washington to be more like Hollywood.

Haha. I couldn't agree more. That is one of Josh's biggest pet peeves- celebrities who think they know it all re: politics.
