Did I see the Sunday Super Bowl. Of course I did. I was glued to it, all of it, before, during and after the game. Did I look for Taylor Swift? Of course I did that too, because Taylor Swift is being described by mass media as the most famous person in the world. Taylor Swift, a 34-year-old pop culture phenomenon whose sensational concert tour has been made into a movie that scored more than a billion dollars its first day in theaters. Taylor Swift is a worldwide celebrity of influence. So much influence that President Biden is reported to be hoping she’ll help him campaign for reelection due to all the talk about him being 81 years old. Joe Biden needs help and there’s evidence that millions of Swifties are willing and ready to help. Though highly unlikely, it’s possible that Uncle Joe will sign her on as his vice presidential running mate. And it will be possible for them to win. Which begs the question, exactly how can she help this campaign? How tough of a Nikki Haley kind of fighter can Taylor Swift be? If she’s world famous now just imagine how famous she’ll be answering that question. In politics, there’s nothing much that matters as much as fame.
