Celebrity Showdown: Democrats Vs. Republicans

Celebrity Showdown: Democrats Vs. Republicans

By:


Celebrities play an important role even outside their respective fields. Actors, actresses, athletes, musiciansyou name itpeople pay attention to them, listen to them, and are more often than not heavily influenced by them. When celebrities tell us to buy a new car, a house, eat pizza, smoke cigars, and buy DVDs we usually do, right? Hence, theres no excuse when it comes to voting the next President.

So lets put aside all this whimsical talk when it comes to politics. In any case, its not as if youre going to find any stable information on it other than long-winded speeches which eats away at your attention span in less than five seconds flatbelieve me, Ive scoured the internet to no avail. In the lighter side of things, it seems that celebrities are getting into the action as Election Day approaches. But in this part of the race, I think we should take a look at whos got the upper hand.

Democrats are now attributed to change. Its a rather just proposition which also accurately reflects its chosen candidate, Barack Obama. Hes young, Idealistic, and hes blackthough technically half-white. Lastly, most women also think hes good looking, which is a big plus when it comes to credibility. And among his entourage of celebrities we have names such as: Leonardo DiCaprio, Stevie Wonder, Steven Spielberg, Christina Applegate, Pierce Brosnan, Spike Lee, Quentin Tarantino, and Isaiah Washington.

As for the tried and tested Republicans, we get a really tried and tested looking kind of guy. Senator John McCain is old. In fact, hes considered as the oldest presidential candidate in the world. Okay, maybe not the world, but at least in U.S. history. Hes also bleach white, which is so hard not to notice. I would hate to play hide and seek with him outside the White House. Even his celebrity backing is, unsurprisingly, dominated by Caucasians. He has names such as: Lance Armstrong, Stephen Baldwin, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Jean Claude Van Damme, Troy Aikman, Tony Danza, Dennis Hopper, Chuck Norris, and a slew of Christian Rockers whose names and bands I am thankfully ignorant of.

Its pretty much clear that the Democrats can claim no contest when it comes to celebrity backing. More relatively younger and successful celebrities of today seem to have found their niche in Senator Obama, as opposed to old, questionably American, kumbaya shredding, Texas rangers and cowboys who have seen better days.
