Why do people insist upon believing that entertainers are political pundits or social gurus?

It is not the first time I read that argumentation. But Azred ... do we live in a democracy ? "Democracy" means "the power to the people". Politics is NOT supposed, in a democracy, to be a job that only specifically skilled and knowleadgeable people are supposed to perform - politics concerns all citizens, and all citizens have the right to express their say because it defines what kind of society we all want to live in.
What you are advocating, Azred, is dictatorship - where the public concerns and decisions are confiscated by a few.
He has the right to speak. You have the right not to listen.
