Celebrities
I think the real issue is not Crow and other celebrities, or whether or not they have a right to their opinions (they do), but the fact that so many people in our country assign celebrities some sort of pundit license, giving them media exposure and deep consideration of their views, regardless of whether or not they have the brains God gave a chipmunk.
This reaches its peak in spectacles like actresses who once played farmers testifying before Congress on farm issues.
In some ways, Americans have a rather odd grip on reality.
