shelby, I can assure you I can point you in the direction of many more singers better than Bo... they are out there, it's just they don't get on tv or popular. I do want to clear up that I don't think it's wrong that people like American Idol or the singers on it... I mean I like people that aren't popular or the best at what they do. I just do not like the ignorance the show casts. The fact that they don't give credit to the music behind the Idols. The fact the music isn't even a part of the show.

I mean hell I watched Making the Band on MTV, but I knew it was a joke, I didn't idolize the people on it. It should be there for enjoyment and as a muse not as something we should aspisre to be and think is what america is. My biggest complaint to the whole thing is that people use to be admired for their knowledge and their ability to express it. But know it just seems like we admire the dumbest people. America has some of the poorest school and education and people wonder why? Could it be because the televison have programmed our kids to believe that having a Crib worth $1,000,000 and a music video is 'cool'.

Honestly look at t.v. Our leader comes on it and cannot connect verbs and nouns. Millionares flash their money, cars and houses on music videos. What kind of motivation is that for the youth of america to try to aspire to become anything but stupid and ignorant? I mean it works for our president and pop stars....
Wellllll said. I almost strangled myself watching Sweet 16 for the same reasons you listed above.
