On the main page of the resource candidate for the position of a Senator asks «aren’t you scared» and promises to be such a politician you never met.
46-year-old Robert James Ritchie (real name rock singer-songwriter) will fight for the favor of voters in his native Michigan, his chief rival will be the representative of the democratic party Debbie Stabenow, which is already three times re-elected to the position of Senator.
Looks like Stabenow not very serious about this competition. In her latest Twitter she hinted that everyone needs to do their job. Calling Richie she believes is not politics, and music and jokes that he should do what he does best — play guitar.
I know we both share a love of music. I concede he’s better at playing guitar and I’ll keep doing what I do best: fighting for Michigan. https://t.co/CUaGqPu7AB

However, public figures and pop stars often try to try policy. In some cases, fame plays into their hands and helps to win the favor of voters. One of the most striking examples — Arnold Schwarzenegger, which was the predecessor of Jerry brown as Governor of California.
