Former 2 Live Crew member Luther Campbell (aka Uncle Luke and Luke Skyywalker) has announced plans to take the Miami political scene by storm. He's run record labels, battled the Supreme Court, and now he's running for mayor of Miami-Dade County.
Recently in an interview with the Miami New Times in which Campbell talked about why he wanted to be mayor, he was quoted as saying, "Why is our government only serving one set of people? That's what is pushing me to run." Seems like a fair enough reason to run for office to me. Some of his policies include but are not limited to setting up gated communities for inner-city neighborhoods, cutting the county budget, and raising taxes (even on strippers, a decidedly un-Uncle Luke move). I don't know if Luke will win but he'd sure as hell get my vote.
