Most Hollyweird and other celebs will naturally be drawn to the “hip” candidate. Even when the hip candidates are doofuses like Carter, Mondale, and Dukakis. Does anyone believe either Paltrow or Diaz have ever read all the way through a serious book in their lives? Or the great majority of Hollyweird libs unless it was a biography of Che Guevara or some similar panegyric to a leftist idol? In short, we’re talking about exceptionally vapid airheads who get paid gazillions for strutting around showing off their physical attributes while reciting words on a cue card.

That's a remarkably absurdist statement ... and yet (I'm rather old) I remember all those candidates' being presented as hip and cool.

Most of the celebrities in Hollywood (not counting Paltrow who only got into film because her family is ‘connected’ and has NO talent to speak of)are former parking lot valets and manicurists.

Do I really want political advice from people who get along in life because of the attributes of their ‘person’.... and not because they are accomplished intellectuals who have read AT LEAST as much as I have ...(to be fair) not the SAME things I read, but AT LEAST as much???

Do I???? N O T

If they spent as much time working on what's between their ears as they spend at the gym or putting paint on their faces, we could have a conversation... until then, forget it!
