Maybe I should have made that more clear in my original post.

I also consider famous athletes to be celebrities.  There are many examples of them getting elected. Former Bengal Tommy Casanova was elected to the Louisiana State Senate.  And I remember former Oklahoma QB J.C. Watts was a US Representative back in the 90's.  He got a lot of coverage because he was a black Republican.

Again, there are a lot of stupid athletes who think they are smart just because a lot of people adore them, but there are also a lot of very smart people who just happen to be great athletes.

Steve Largent was in office also.
