Should we just let the cast of a Broadway show run the country?

They obviously know what is best for us.

    I know the historical person we study in school.  I did not know one thing about that play.   Who do you think you are talking to, Marguerite?  Haaa haaa haaahaaaahaa
    I hate Broadway plays.  They make me itchy all over.

    Not me.  So, I read some Hamilton remark on here and I just said it thinking it was wrong.  And look at that.  Now I have to actually dig into this and find out what this has to do with the question.  So much work.   I'll just copy someone else like Melania did.

    Bromide THIS is what you are talking about?  THIS IS WONDERFUL.

    I am so thrilled, it reminds me of Cabaret, the movie about the 40's right before Hitler took reign.  I mean here are the actors telling the government off and thinking they can still have rights and protection? 

    The cast of Broadway’s “Hamilton” spoke directly to Vice President-elect Mike Pence as he sat in the audience after a show Friday night, saying they hope the production inspired him to govern in a way that protects a diverse America -- a statement President-elect Donald Trump took issue with on Twitter Saturday morning.

    "Vice President-elect Pence, we welcome you and truly thank you for joining us here tonight at Hamilton, we really do," said actor Brandon Victor Dixon, who plays Aaron Burr, with the cast assembled behind him.

    "We, sir, we are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents, or defend us and uphold our unalienable rights, sir," said Dixon.

    "But we truly hope this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and to work on behalf of all of us," he continued. "We truly thank you for sharing this show, this wonderful American story told by a diverse group of men, women of different colors, creeds and orientation."




    The audience clapped and cheered as Dixon spoke. 'Hamilton' creator Lin-Manuel Miranda responded online later in the evening that he was proud of Dixon and the cast.

    "Proud of @HamiltonMusical. Proud of @BrandonVDixon, for leading with love. And proud to remind you that ALL are welcome at the theater," he tweeted.

    Isn't it funny?

    Here's what the cast member of "Hamilton" said to VP-elect Mike Pence:

    "We, sir — we — are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents, or defend us and uphold our inalienable rights. We truly hope that this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and to work on behalf of all of us."

    WOW, such a Radical Commie Ebil Liburhl Terrorist sentiment! Such terrible abuse Mr. Pence was forced to endure! [/sarcasm]

    Get a grip, people!
