A Twisted World

In "A Twisted World", I think James McMorrow Jr. argues that although America would love to see celebrities run the United States it is out of the question because there would be to many ridiculous changes. I thought that this whole essay was constructed very strategically. It was interesting that rather than starting with his opinion he writes the whole essay with examples of what the United States would be like if celebrities ran it. McMorrow's conclusion surprised me at first because after reading this I thought it was clear that he would want celebrities to run the United States. At first when I read this I looked at all of his details as positive points. However after looking back at it I realized he was using examples to show how ridiculous and drastic the changes would be. I liked that he came to absurd conclusions to get his point across. I agree with McMorrow that I would love to see the United States run by celebrities. It would be a dream come true. I would follow all of the political aspects if this were to happen. However the country is already in a hole and I do not see a drastic change such as this helping the situation.
