79. Which is why the poll...

May 2015

I started this poll because of a posting mentioning Bernie's so called Bad hair. We tend to be so damn serious here at DU, that sometimes, its just time to lighten up. You are right, his hair and her hair really doesn't amount to anything really important.. and yet, with people focused on it like some kind of Supermarket tabloid attention, thought it might be fun to poke fun at all of that.

I mean seriously, I can visualize Bernie dying his hair in tie-dyed colors, and being really hip, and it wouldn't matter. As mentioned earlier, there have been important people with crazy hair.. Enstein comes to mind, and Howard Stern (though he is not super important, he has a huge fan base in this country, and people probably would rather listen to him, than say a Rush Limbaugh (and look at his conservative hair!) All of this is meant in fun, and in no way reflects any kind of seriousness, but yet some people in this country are trying to make it some kind of issue. Its clearly not.. but no one can say, you can't have fun with it..,. go with the flow, right?
