do you think celebrities should publicly announce who they are going to vote for??

i personally think they should not. The reason for this is because we look and listen to celebrities for their "talent."(dont even get me started.) we should not have to look at every headline in the grocery store, or look hear another so called protest from some dumb celebrity who has no basis for his/her argument/protest. we listen and watch them for entertainment. not to get some lame ass celebrity who has no idea what they are talking about and just wants some kind of "political" voice. HA! try looking to the american public for a real voice...

How exactly is saying who they vote for "protesting" ?

I don't think that you explained your reasoning why you are against it very clearly... please elaborate whydoncha?

i really don't care. if you're politically influenced by celebrities, you have the right to have your brain donated to scinece since it's barely used... and p.diddy is f*cking annoying with this vote or die sh!t.

You took some of the words right out of my ... mouth. But some people sadly ARE influenced by celebs - hell take a look round KMC at the people peeing in there pants about "celebs" as if they are gods.

When it comes to politics, never misunderestimate the stupidity of peoples. Thats my motto.

I really don't care...I don't give a damn who some celebrity's going to vote for...

it depends on who the celeb is....if it were someone reliable like, ummm, hold on...................

Depends. These dumbass rappers should be shot for what is possibly the worst ever "get out the vote" campaign. But I don't mind it so much from people who I expect to hear it from--members of political bands and such. Some celebrities actually do care about the issues, some do it just because it's the recent trend.

Regardless, I won't be influenced by what somebody says just because they're famous.

really...who cares 😕

and if you do care, you look into things waaaay too much

World of difference between telling somebody who you intend to vote for, and using your "fame" to encourage people to vote -

until celebs start to encourage people to tear down the very fabric of society with civil disobedience i'm glad they at least try to mobilise the lazy ass Internet addicted youth into taking a dim occasional interest in politics.

celebs should keep their mouths shut

yes, but who cares?

If they can be mercilessly hounded by papparazi, have every little thing in their lives looked at in minute detail by everyone, be criticized freely, then if someone wants to listen they should be able to talk about whatever they want--including politics.

Thats pretty much what I think 👆

Political bands you expect that from anyway...its what they do anyway, thats their direction.

Besides, celebrites have freedom of speech do they not? So if they want to say something, let them.

HEY!!!!! I'm a lazy ass internet addicted youth and I happen to take more than just a dim interest in politics and not because some fake ass celebrity says so!!

If you are in a position of public influence...a place where you can influence public opinion, and you are concerned about an issue, or you want to campaign you should feel obligated to. If you can bring attention to an issue or something that you care about, you should try to get out and influence people. Personally, most of the people out there with influence i dont want to hear from (except some of the concerts out there that are benefiting a campaign), but maybe they will help bring in some swing votes out there for Kerry so its cool.....

Yeah, that kind just do it for their own publicity, not because they are wanting to stand up for something. 👇

Just because someone is a celebrity, it doesnt automaticly mean that they have absolutely no political views, if they wanna share them, cool, dont mean the rest of us will follow.

Yeah, even though neither canidates are all that prez-worthy if you ask me, if i was old enough to vote mine would go to Kerry too.

It's so ridiculous to think that celebrities should only publicly display their "talents" and hide every belief, opinion that makes them human.

They're people with opinions just like you and I.
Difference is when they speak, they're usually heard.

If you dont like what they say, dont listen to them.
If they offend you dont support their work.

I dont hear anyone bitching about those pro-Bush country music stars! 😂
