19. The Civil Rights Movement used celebs all the time

People worshiped Dr. King but they also marched so they could see Dick k Gregory, Ray Charles,Harry Belefonte and others.

People also want to heard good music when they show up to march.

IMO, we won't get the FRAUD issue off the ground without a few big names backing it up.

People are not going to pour into the streets to see Conyers I regret to say.

They will do it for Madonna, Dixie Chicks, Patti LaBelle, P. Diddy, Usher etc.

If and when John Kerry steps forth, others will follow.

Without Kerry, there is no leader other than JJ and Conyers and Waters etc.

If Michael Moore showed up the streets would be filled.
