Dear Editor,
I am mystified why value could be placed on the opinions of movie stars, entertainers or other public figures in any country, in reference to voting for official offices, which are supposed to represent the opinions of the country’s people.
Are most people so ill-informed and non-caring that they will vote as certain celebrities do?
The exception might well and justly be the political, religious and moral views of the candidate, as it relates to their and other world powers and countries. This comes to mind with the upcoming US elections in November.
Most important is for all US citizens to VOTE. Mail-in ballots are available for those citizens out of the country.
