I knew Kid Rock was politically active..
An ordained minister though?
:shock:
In a tweet Wednesday, Rock, whose birth name is Robert James Ritchie, wrote that the website "KidRockForSenate.com" was real and to stay tuned for "a major announcement in the near future."
Republicans in Michigan have reportedly been considering Rock to run on the GOP ticket in 2018 to challenge incumbent Democrat Debbie Stabenow for her seat.
Michigan GOP press officer Sarah Anderson told Fox News in February that she was unaware if Rock would run for office in the state, but that she thinks it "would be awesome" if he did.
"I am definitely a Republican on fiscal issues and the military, but I lean to the middle on social issues. I am no fan of abortion, but it's not up to a man to tell a woman what to do. As an ordained minister I don't look forward to marrying gay people, but I'm not opposed to it," Rock said.
The singer visited President Donald Trump at the White House in April with former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and fellow musician Ted Nugent.
If Kid Rock is serious about running and wins the Senate seat, he would be the first GOP candidate to win that seat since 1998. Incumbent Stabenow has held her seat since 2000.

It could prove to be quite an entertaining campaign. I can only imagine the opposition having total meltdowns.

Hopefully he will be a better senator than he is an artist. :laugh3:
I don't like celebrities, but if Al Franken can do it, so can the white trash rocker.
His songs and lyrics will be thrown out there by the SJW's so much he will become that much richer/popular because of it. It's a win for him regardless.

It would be something if he won and took a seat in the senate..
But, he has to win his party's primary first.

No downside for him.
Ran across this interview with Dan Rather from Feb of this year. If you have an hour or so....I thoroughly enjoyed it. Was hoping to hear about his possible senate run but nothing on that.....

Nothing about his political positions?

Far too long to listen to a narcissistic fucking celebutard.

Not really. Talked about a couple of experiences is all. White house, Mitt Romney etc.

I thought he's be proud of it. That's what being a rock star is all about. :laugh3:

I would like to watch that kiebers, but I don't have the time.
I have not seen the entire interview and I won't if he doesn't talk about his political positions.
