I hate that people think that because someone can sing their political opinions matter more than any other ordinary person!

It would be a sad state of affairs when someone changed their political leanings because of something Harry Belafonte said...

Belafonte can sing but I don't see him running for office... and if he did I'd hope no one took him seriously.

If Colin Powell made a similar comment about Belafonte's music it would be just as weighty.
