Celebrity spokespersons



Do you actually believe that Heston was chosen to run the NRA because he was
the most qualified?  Hardly.  He was chosen because he's a celebrity with wide
appeal, which is just what the NRA needs right now with the country's move
toward more gun control legislation.  He's able to get on TV, Radio and other
sources better than anyone else in the organization.  He's a marketing
figurehead--that's about it.
