Sonia V. Hits New York Politics with Song "Superstar"

(PRWEB) January 2, 2008 -- Indie Rocker and Independent Music Awards "Christian Album of the Year" winner Sonia V. hits the political arena with her special brand of Rock-n-Roll by way of her critically acclaimed song "Superstar" which has been chosen as the campaign theme song for political candidate David R. Grate (www.davidrgrate2008.us).

Grate is running for the US House of Representatives in the 22nd Congressional District in New York State for the November 2008 Election. On Monday, December 10, 2007, The Constitution Party of New York announced its endorsement of Mr. David R. Grate for US House of Representatives in the 22nd Congressional District. Grate is also a supporter of Ron Paul for the Republican nomination for President of the United States of which Grate shares many of the same values and goals. (www.ronpaul2008.com)

David R. Grate states, "I am an educator, not a politician. The reason I decided to run for the 22nd Congressional District of New York was that this area needs a regular person to represent it, not a career politician."

He continued, "When I first heard the song 'Superstar' I immediately took a liking to the song. Sonia V., the performing artist, is a regular person who just likes to sing. That's what the song is about; singing because she loves to sing, not because she wants to be a superstar. I am running in the upcoming election because it's what I am being led to do, not because I want to be a politician. My political aspirations end at Congress -- I don't want to be President or a Senator, I just want to represent my neighbors."

The Politics Behind Olympics Games
Among the Greeks, fitness competitions and games were nationalistic in spirit; states were said to have been prouder of Olympic victories than of battles won. Women, foreigners, slaves, and dishonored persons were forbidden to compete. Contestants were required to train faithfully for 10 months before the games and had to take an oath that they had fulfilled the training requirements before participating. At first, the Olympic Games were confined to running, but over time new events were added. The winners of the Olympics were crowned with chaplets of wild olive, and in their home city-states male champions were also awarded valuable gifts and privileges.

The Politics of Health
I was thinking about the quarrel (well, fight to the death, actually) between conventional medicine and alternatives like herbal or holistic medicine.

I always believed that herbal medicine pre-dated conventional medicine by thousands of years. It turns out that it doesn't, not by THOUSANDS, anyway! Conventional medicine appears to be younger than herbal medicine by only about 1,100 years.

The Politics Of Fashion
Everyone knows that clothes make the man. From the executive suits that litter Wall Street like the remnants of a ticker-tape parade to the coveralls and work boots worn by construction workers and mechanics, clothes tell the story of who we are and where we're going. Even when the workday is done, what we choose to wear on our own time is still a reflection of our personalities. From the sweat-suit to the wet-suit, our clothes are meant to be not only functional, but forthcoming as well. Clothes tell others what we like, and often, how we spend our time. Sports franchise logos are constantly on display on Main Street America. T-shirts with well known television, film and music icons can be seen almost anywhere. Clothes have som...
