Intelligent, socially aware, and compassionate musicians like Joe the Strummer (RIP), Bono the Singer, Melissa the Lesbian, and Dave the Bohemian know exactly why the world needs Barack Obama right now:The Republican Party is increasingly becoming the party of greed, intolerance, hatred, and exclusivism. The party of "I got mine, fuck you!"
The party of blame and fear and willful ignorance. The party of sanctimonious, self-righteous arrogance. The world is, arguably, a more dangerous place than ever, and Joe the Strummer and others like him understsand that we will all benefit from an American president whom the world sees as a uniting, calm, and inclusive presence in the White House. One who won't be the world's doormat, but who has already demonstrated clear-headed, rational thinking and a desire to create a better world for everyone. What's so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding?
