Listining to NPR, I was disturbed by a comment made by a Clinton follower on the day that Ms. Clinton conceded to Mr. Obama. In the broadcast there was a lot of background noise that sounded disturbed almost like lamenting. When the reported asked this older woman if she would now vote for Obama, the woman replied that she would only if Hillary told her to do so.
What does that mean? Is Hillary now in control of the votes of all of her followers? Is this a cult? Why would one give away one's vote to another person? Does the woman not have an opinion of her own? Her next comment was that she may just leave the country.
Why is the opinion of celebrities so valued? They are just people and because they are famous, every kneejerk thing they say is printed and uplifted by many as "truth" or "a guide."
