Over the past few days, rumors have been swirling around the possibility of Kid Rock running for Senate in 2018. While it’s unconfirmed if this is a publicity stunt to promote new music or the real deal, one thing is certain: Kid Rock has the skills necessary to be a political frontrunner.
Kid Rock knows how to rally the people. “Pimp of the nation,” “You never met a politician quite like me,” and “Get in the Senate and try to help someone” flash in red, white, and blue on Kid Rock’s official campaign site. His Facebook page quotes him saying, “I believe if you work your butt off and pay taxes, you should be able to easily understand and navigate the laws, tax codes, health care and anything else the government puts in place that affects us all.”
Kid Rock has plenty of experience talking in front of an audience, capturing the public’s eye, and being as in-your-face American as possible. Who else is better suited for the Senate? The only question I have is will his future fellow senators refer to him as Senator Rock or Senator Ritchie (as his given name is Robert Ritchie)?
Here are ten times (out of many) that Kid Rock looked like a political frontrunner.
