He has seriously supported Detroit, many terminally ill children, black causes, got an award from the NAACP in 2010 I think. Did a fundraiser for the Detroit Symphony.
He donates a million or more each year to Detroit causes. He is hugely popular there.
Up here in northern Michigan we also adore him. I only rarely encounter someone who is not overly fond of him but even they admit he is one of our own. It has nothing to do with his concerts or what he wears at them.
Sarah Palin likes him. She invited him to the WH with her....I am hoping she can help him with the bad language.
What you are describing is a well liked philanthropist.
Nothing wrong with supporting worthy causes.
I don’t get any sense of what his ‘leadership’ would be like.
I only hear about what he doesn’t like.
I will admit to driving around listening to American Badass...
