"He presents himself as a politically important figure"

He must have a fantastic PR organization behind him because a lot of people, especially certain media outlets, seem to buy it.

Audiofeil: Barbra Streisand, Alec Baldwin, Bon Jovi, Jeanine Garafolo and many more are all in the same pathetic boat. However Bono bothers me more simply because for some reason I see his mug more than the others.
This is an unfortunate byproduct of our deteriorating culture; celebrity entitlement. These folks feel it is their 'duty' to 'save' the world from whatever they don't like. Gee, thanks guys.

The difference between celebrities and politicians for that matter) and most people in this regard is that the celebrities have the stage, coverage and money to get noticed and have influence.

That is the way the world works, for better or for worse. Best to just deal with it as best as possible and move on.

Politicians can be voted out, at least in theory. Celebrities? I guess you can stop buying what they are selling and relieve them of their fame and have the same effect, but if you like their act, that ain't likely to happen either.

Well Mapman, I hope one day that that I can vote Jeanine Garafolo out of celebrityhood!

WOW! WOW WOW WOW! Alex Baldwin? What about Mikel J Fox? or what of Paul Newman? for got he died guess your happy? Geoge Cloony? i guess Ted Nugent is more to your liking? don't wish to make this political but you need a serious karma check.
