Mike Huckabee with Rickenbacker

That's a fair point. I think what I mean is that they had their greatest impacts on people in their roles as politicians, both in terms of how much they affected people and in terms of how many people they affected. Also, those effects are likely deeper and longer lasting. As such, I think it's fair that it would be difficult to separate these folks musical endeavors from their politics/beliefs/etc.

Also, not for nothing, but Huckabee's roles as minister, TV/radio host and author are likely an extension of his politics. At the least, they all inform each other. So they're not entirely distinct from each other.
I don’t know the man but I’d guess if you asked him he’d say you have it backwards; that it’s his faith that informs everything else and is how he’s had the most impact with people.
 
hmmmmm.... so by your definition as "interpreted or "harmful to said people". That should be weighed also against people who harm hmmmm... lets say the unborn?

oooppsss did i go somewhere uncomfortable.?
The guy is not only a politician, he does hold some celebrity status. He plays decent bass. Other professional cats seem to dig him....
Why are you seemingly jealous?

This seems like it was supposed to be some kind of "gotcha," but it's...not? It was kind of exactly my point. Also I'm not sure why you think I'm jealous. I don't see how that follows. Seems like you're trying to get a rise out of me?

ummmm actually, a celebrity according to Oxford is a "famous" person. He is a famous person, who is multi faceted. He is a musician, he is a politician, he is a speaker, he is a minister, he is... etc etc .

Right, so he is not just a famous person, ie a celebrity. Again, what point are you trying to make? Or are you just reiterating my points?
