Political star
Political star is indeed essential for today political theater. I watched a programme lately on cable TV about political stars of the world. President of Taiwan, Ma Ying Jeou is one of them in Asia. You see him often on TV running around his living area with T-shirt and short every morning. His health status is needless to explain that shows he is fit enough physically to be a president. He is the idol of many Taiwanese and H.K. women especially women are over age of 30s. People nowaday not just look for a presidential candidate who is strong as a world class leader, able to protect his/her country, and also look for someone who is with powerful star image. This can increase the solid number of voters and supporters in any elections.
Obama is indeed the one with strong political star image in my personal opinion. I like him. Many do share same opinions as me from what I saw on other political blogs. Obama accepted the interview with Access Hollywood lately that indeed brings the big influence of idol image built in general public. It’s part of the process to consolidate the relationship with his supporters and to improve the relationship with his non-supporters until the final date of presidential election. Well, of course, this will be continued after the election if this is not just a so called propaganda. Family interview, it’s the way showing the down to earth personality of Obama. Having his wife talked about his wardrobe, his romantic sense, and how she keeps him dressing cool for daily basic that indeed an intelligent campaign. Family campaign is definitely important. It may affect the decision of independent voters in the final votes as well as the decision of those original Hillary supporters. We all need a leader being down to earth, understanding of the real needs of a country and its people. Be honest, who likes to hear news of a president with series of affairs and divorce such as President of France, Nicolas Sarkozy. His news is entertaining but is not something to be discussed on the table when comes to political issues. Personally, I admit he is an attractive man in eyes of women, at least I do think so. My political idol is still Tony Blair though he is no longer on the political stage. He really shouldn’t support Bush. This is his worst decision ever. I support Taiwanese President, Ma Ying Jeou too. He does bring influences to their followers. His personal image is well built up in the hearts of all his supporters included me. He is definitely a star!
I am not surprise that how Hillary Clinton blamed on her husband for her own failure. Her husband indeed ruined part of her reputations according to his old affair story. By the way, it’s funny to watch a programme on CNN about the comparison of the way how Cindy McCain and Michelle Obama dress. They look totally different in many ways. It’s kind of unfair by comparison of their appearances in order to reflect their husbands’ images.
I feel sorry for us that we don’t have any political icon/star in Hong Kong, really none. Those candidates have no style. They are only working for their jobs with high paid, but got no influence on the people. I feel a bit too much that how our CEO always express how much we did for the latest Shichun earthquake in order to show how much we love our country. He sounds like showing his work performance rather than anything else. Anyway, election here doesn’t excite you at all, so I never vote. I know I am too honest, but is true. lol
