Gangster Politics
An American Gangsta
How can politicians connect with teenagers and other people who are “hip-hop?” Send in the big guns of Al Gore. Nothing says “I’m hip” like the sideways peace sign… Or is he pulling a “Three Stooges” maneuver on that guy in the front? Maybe that L on his hat stands for “Larry.”
“Gangster Politics” is doing whatever it takes to get as many votes as you can, ethically or unethically. It’s saying one thing and doing another. For example, you may recall George Bush proclaiming that he was going to bring Osama Bin Laden to justice, actually promising that he was going to do so. Now you can here that same rhetoric from John McCain. It’s unreal that we don’t wise up as a society and call these bull**itters out on this crap. “Hey buddy! You’re saying the same thing your predecessor told us when he was running for office last time, and STILL nothings changed and he didn’t fulfill that promise. Why should we believe you?”
I dream of the day when politicians stop being “gangsters” and just start being real. “If you elect me president, I will work hard to bring Bin Laden to justice.” That’s something I can believe.
