A current BVG demographic: 3/4 of the BVG's watch "American Idol." Only Elletu abstains. On last night's show the Top Ten was announced, and it is a talented group for sure. While I was watching their performances I texted my friend Jeanne in Hawaii who also watches, but of course Hawaii is a few hours behind. Jeanne texted back and asked me who I "support" on Idol. It was an interesting question considering that our texts and e-mails during the past few months have all been about Donald Trump and Ted Cruz. My answer was this:
"MacKenzie, Sonika, Dalton, Avalon, Trent, La'Porsha and Lee, but not necessarily in that order. They are all so good, it's hard to choose my favorite. Now, if I could only feel that way about even just ONE person who is running for President!"
We talked about both of these issues at our BVG Night, the sad state of this Presidential race and the outstanding talent on this, the final year of "American Idol." I've always voted Republican, but I can't find one Republican running for President this time around that I want to vote for. I'm certainly not a fan of Hillary or Bernie either, of course. But look at that list of six potential Idols---I'll be happy if any one of them wins the Idol title. They are really all that good.
In the grand scheme of things, what's most important? The sign above says it all. I have put this on the blog before, and I might do it again several times between now and the November election, and beyond. Politics aside, Jesus is our leader. Reality TV aside, Jesus is our Idol.
That being said, Cool and j, what do you think of my list of six "American Idol" favorites so far?
