Professional wrestler Jerry "The King" Lawler is running for mayor of Memphis,TN. The popular local celeberity was first considered a long shot with little hope of winning. However, Lawler has proven to be an able opponent who just makes good sense with his view that goverment's job is to serve the people. "If you keep electing professional politictians, no matter who wins, you just get more of the same. The people are tired of business as usual in city hall."says Lawler.
One of his key issues is a demand for honesty and accountability from the Mayor and City Council.
While opponents say a vote for him is wasted, Lawler counters saying "Enough people wasted their vote in Minnasota to elect a new governor."
Add to this that the race between incumbent mayor Willie Herenton and his chief rival Joe Ford has degraded into the worst kind of mud slinging contest, many Memphians are expressing real digust with the current state of the city and supporting Lawler.
Lawler is now running a strong third in the polls and has a real chance of winning.
I don't live in Memphis, but just outside of it. So what happens there does have an effect on me. Lawler has made more sense than all the other candidates combined. I really hope he wins.
I posted this as an example of how many people in this nation are fed up with government and business as usual from it.
Maybe we should just scrap congress and turn our government over to the WWF!
