Why do people care what anyone thinks about politics? Being a famous rock and roller does not exempt one from having a political opinion worthy of consideration or debate. It shouldn't give more credence to one's opinion, but it shouldn't take away from it either.

True. Good point. They are all opinions unless you're specifically trained and are an expert in the subject.

Yet people give outsize weight to a pothead college dropout artist for some reason.
