...they have a dance), but we don't have "Best Religion" or--especially important--"Best Ethnic Group." Sure, we can vote on whether Football is better than Basketball, but we are denied the opportunity to decide if the "Hello, young lady" man in the square is better than the "Spare any change...ma'am, sir" lady. In short, Parade of Stars is a nice idea, but it completely ignores its larger potential as a venue for deciding who's most popular and what's cool...
...taking the shortest route to get there. FM fully supports such sociopathic tendencies, if only for prurient reasons. Just to give you a leg up on the rest of your peers (they're thinking just like you are, so you don't have a moment to spare) we're giving you this advice: it all comes down to what you're doing during the last few weeks before your first year at Harvard.

She sat on the plush...
...their questions were remarkably indulgent. Moore is obviously getting at something that should be said. But labor needs a voice that does not elicit indulgence. Michael Moore is guilty of reductionism. He has villified corporate America, and his only evidence comes from the unemployed and for PR drones. His spare comments on real incomes are valid and merit elaboration, but they are not met with any depth. That the human moments and glimpses of common sense in The Big One are sandwiched between annoying, carelessly composed confrontations and stand-up routines is a shame...
