Compare and contrast: Kid Rock vs. President Camacho from 'Idiocracy'

When a rocker's political speech mirrors the absurdity of a fictional movie

Presented without comment, here are two political speeches – and ridiculously NSFW in each case – between which I noticed several similarities.

This was the case despite one being from the “fictional” movie Idiocracy and the other being from the apparently “non-fictional” could-be U.S. Senate campaign of one certain rocker, Kid Rock. 

(Full disclosure: Upon hearing Kid Rock might've spent some time in Wildwood, New Jersey, this summer, I've been trying to score an interview to talk about the Jersey Shore. So if you see this,  Kid, reach out, yo.)

The former arrived in the public’s conscious when Mike Judge – he of Beavis and Butthead fame – released a film in 2006. 

The later arrived last Wednesday when Kid Rock “performed” in Grand Rapids, Mich.

With a secondary reminder that these aren’t exactly presentations you can play loudly around co-workers and children, I hereby present “Compare and Contrast: Kid Rock vs. President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.”

Enjoy!
