19-year-old gamer elected mayor of Muskogee, OK.
Now I know Muskogee is a shit hole, and he probably can't do any more damage, but the political process has become a joke since George Bush lowered the bar.

Are you condemning him because of his age? Or because he owns an XBox? If the latter, I agree wholeheartedly. XBox is for kids. PS3 is the big boy's choice. (And Wii is for grannies.)

The nation that elected Sonny Bono to Congress cannot complain when its cities elect unconventional types for mayor.
The bar has already gone past limbo territory.

Now although I don't think celebrities are the brightest people, at least they bring connections to the table, so arguably, they are useful in the political forum. However, I'm hard pressed to see what a 19-year-old gamer brings to the table, other than an extra controller, a bottle of mountain dew and some red vines.

Wait till the technologically advanced aliens land and subvert your troops with their mind rays, then see who everyone turns to.
And you know...a lot of the time...connections=back-scritching=corruption.
