Is Kim Kardashian's wish to be Mayor of Glendale, CA a front or reality?

Ever since Kim Kardashian  mentioned becoming
Glendale, California's next mayor to her sister - Khloe, on the reality TV show - 'Keeping up with the Kardashian's', the responses have been mostly laughable, to keep it "real". In other words, most people think it's just a publicity stunt. Local Glendale politicians don't believe that Kim could actually "lead", citing her lack of experience in public service as evidence. And although other celebrities (like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ronald Reagan) have played roles as politicians, it doesn't mean that Kim would enjoy the same success, they add.

But what if... Kim is serious?

Judging from her ability to get what she wants, coupled with the main ingredient required in politics - 'skrilla', she couldn't be a worse leader than former California governor, Schwarzenegger. 

She may want to brush-up on her demographics and a few other essentials before she officially takes the plunge, though; she thinks Armenian's make up the greatest number of residents. In reality, only 25% of the population are Armenian.

Miss Kardashian would also face two mandatory challenges: 

1. first get elected to city council

2. receive vote(s) of confidence from city council members, who select the mayor. 

We know you've got a hot-ass frame, but do you have a political brain and a heart to serve others, Miss Kardashian? Or, is this, in "reality", just you[r] making a political play after taking a page out of Sarah Palin's book of 'hustle & flow'?




 

Firing of Oakland Raider Head Football Coach - Hue Jackson

  Just after the conclusion of his first season as head coach, the recent ousting of [now] former head coach of the Oakland Raiders - Hue Jackson, by owner - Mark Davis through his [new] general manager - Reggie McKenzie, came as no surprise to some, yet surprisingly to himself and his supporters. While some reports suggested that Jackson was too "power hungry" and wanted more authority and say-so within the Raider organization, others simply believe his press conference comments, right after losing the last game of the season, when he put his players 'on-blast' for not performing as expected, was cause for his firing. 

Whether it was actually McKenzie or Davis who made the call to dismiss Jackson still remains a mystery, but there's speculation that it was Davis' nod that put the act in motion. Perhaps we'll never know the real deal on this issue, but O.G. - Hue Jackson was respectful about the decision, and while "pissed" at his team for their lack of will-to-win attitude, he repeatedly accepted his responsibility, as head coach, for producing only an average (500, 8 and 8 record) season. 

"I was surprised, but I understand the decision", said Jackson during an interview about his termination.

Upon his release from the organization, the former head coach gracefully accepted his fate and wished the organization, and owner - Mark Davis, well and looks forward to furthering his professional career as a coach in the NFL.

On a good note:  Although Jackson was surprised and obviously disappointed about his fall from Raider Nation, he still stands by his convictions and enjoys major support from long time friends and former teammates, namely, from his high school alma-mater in Los Angeles, California - Dorsey High School. 

During his senior year at Dorsey, Jackson was the starting quarterback for the Dons, who won the city championship in 1982. "So hard, so hard to be a Don!"...but not so hard to be a Raider...or maybe not?

With the Raider's poor performance history, and dark cloud of funk that's been plaguing the organization for far too long, Mr. Jackson might find himself better suited coaching personnel who execute plays like the Raiders of times past, instead of setting new record lows for most penalties; "coaches can only coach, but players must ball, homie!" 


Coach Jackson is a winner, and it's understandable that he let off a little steam about his feelings regarding his players - finally, a coach who said what he really felt and kept it "real".

Much love and good luck coach!
