If Dennis Rodman can go to North Korea and hang with leader Kim Jong-un, then why can’t Stevie Wonder? As tensions rise on the Korean Peninsula, and Kim threatens nuclear war against the U.S. and its allies in the region, the music legend says he’d like to travel there and talk some sense into the young Supreme Leader.

Speaking about unity and love with reporters backstage at the Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday night, Wonder said, “Listen, we could not be here without love. I wish I could say to the president at this very moment, ‘President Obama, will you let me go to North Korea to talk to the leader?’ Because he must not know the people that are helpless, that’ll be killed, if there were war.” His voice breaking, Stevie added, “It’s emotional to me.”

Isn’t he lovely...

Isn’t he wonderful....

Wants to Go to North Korea to Talk About Love...

I'm only hearing this as a good thing. I'll note that there is talk of "going" and none of "returning".

"“Listen, we could not be here without love.

"Give me just a little more time. And our love will surely grow."

That's OK, neither is he.

He and Kim are going to collaberate on a new song: “ Ruv is Brind “

[Celtic Conservative]

Just what did Dennis Rodman say to the Un to make him go all nuclear?

Was he just passing on a “create chaos” message from the Won?

Mostly 2 if I recall correctly, it’s all on ipod now.

[autumnraine]

One word.

Narcissism.

[liberalh8ter]

Just send him to South Korea and set him up with a Kim Jong Un impersonator. It's not like he'll know the difference.

Re the comment to Mars Attacks! Where is Slim whitman when you need him?

Actually sending useful or useless idiots to NK is a good idean. If only they would go.

[autumnraine]

Been sick of that theme for a long time. Especially in kid shows. “The troll under the bridge is just mean because no one has been nice to him!”

And kids learn to be super nice to mean people. Not good advice.

[SamuraiScot]

Jimmy Carter, then Dennis Rodman and now Stevie Wonder

Surely no one can stand up to our dream team of Stupid, Crazy, and Blind.

[Arrowhead1952]

You know what a tennis match between Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles is called??

Endless love.

[lurk]

Yes, that way he can see conditions in NK firsthand.

Oh, wait...

[Opinionated Blowhard]

In Stevie’s defense, he’s never made any sense about anything outside of music.

[jurroppi1]

LOL!

[fieldmarshaldj]

That is SO wrong.

[Night Hides Not]

go ahead, and take Jesse Jackson with you...

Better yet, send Eddie Murphy with Stevie. He'll make the NK's think they're suffering from double vision.

[roadcat]

I think it’s a grand idea. But Obama should go, putting on dark glasses and wig, and pretending to be Stevie Wonder. The little Korean dictator won’t know the difference. Then pow, Obama sucker punches him. I can dream, can’t I?
